95. In 1995, he was sent to restore the Living Word Fellowship in Sandusky Ohio. He was called
back to Full Gospel Evangelistic Center as senior pastor in late 1995 where he served as pastor
another four years.
The Birth of Kingdom Life Assembly Church
In 1999, Pastor Jordan gave himself to fasting and praying and out of this was birthed the decision to
start Kingdom Life Assembly Church. Pastor Jordan and Cynthia Jordan organized a series of bible
studies and prayer meetings in their home. Fully convinced that the vision God had given him for the
church was genuine, Pastor Jordan initiated the steps to become a recognized non-profit
incorporation. Jordan affiliated himself and Kingdom Life Assembly Church with the Assemblies of
God and received covering and pastoral oversight.
Pastor Jordan's steadfast commitment to biblical study, and a lifestyle of fasting and prayer has
prepared him to minister in the area of deliverance. Pastor Jordan's sound interactive preaching and
teaching is often filled with real world illustrations that help to increase understanding of complex
biblical passages. Notwithstanding his tribulations as a leader and pastor, Pastor Jordan has
overcome trials, which have equipped him with wisdom and knowledge to train pastors and other
leaders in the body of Christ.
First Lady Cynthia Jordan is a prophetess with a heart of worship. Elder Cynthia constantly seeks the
heartbeat and mind of Christ through prayer, and worship and often emerges with a prophetic song of
the Lord, or the prophetic word of the Lord that effectively minister to the hearts of people. Elder Cynthia’
s heart is for the excellence of God as she demonstrates it through the administration of church
activities and functions.
