Building the Kingdom
of Heaven on Earth

In November 2007, God, through the Holy Spirit, spoke to Rick and Mary Beth McElroy and a few others who were earnestly seeking Him.

He instructed them to step away from the traditional church structure, lay down every personal agenda, and gather to seek Him with complete abandon. Since then, God has continually met with Kingdom Rain International —and those who join —with a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit, revealing His love, will, and plan, hosting His presence through apostolic and prophetic gatherings.

No two services are ever the same! Each gathering is unique as we yield to the flow of the Spirit, allowing God to accomplish His will. You can expect prophetic words, spontaneous and prophetic worship, expressive dance, words of knowledge and wisdom, teaching, evangelism, testimonies, and demonstrations of the Holy Spirit. Each time we worship together, it’s as if the tapestry of heaven is being woven in our midst.

As an Apostolic Worship Center and a prophetic house of revelation, all gifts, talents, and callings are nurtured and activated for God’s Kingdom. The Holy Spirit equips individuals to hear and receive God's voice, empowering them to declare and proclaim His will upon the earth."

Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature in the Lord, measuring up to the full and complete standard of Christ.

Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth. Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.

Ephesians 4:11-16 NLT

Leadership

God has called and anointed all who believe in His Son, Jesus, as members of the body of Christ and the family of God. Therefore, we do not have formal membership or a typical top-down hierarchal leadership team. We are the family of God. Our senior leadership team moves together, submitting one to another, in all areas of leadership. The leadership team moves with the intercession teams so that together they hear God to administrate heaven to earth in real time.
