Direct From Pastor Don (2014)

Arrow Image It is now 2014, and God has been amazing. The Church that I pastor is remarkably blessed. We average between 200 and 300 people, with a vibrant Sunday School and Youth Program. The Lord has expanded my ministry, I have been called upon to speak at different churches and conventions, and I accept the responsibility of now being an elder statesman in ministry.

I have been married 45 years; I am a new grandfather, and all my sons are born again and awaiting their calling into their ministries for the Lord.


Cynthia Moore Arrow Image My wife, Cynthia, is retired now from 33 years of public school education, which was followed by 10 years of Christian Education at Living Word Chapel in the Sunday School program. She fills her time now taking care of me, our home, and ministering to the young women in the church, as well as singing in the Don Moore Band and two other praise teams. Both our fathers and mothers are deceased. Maybe this year Cynthia and I will write our memoirs, which include tremendous healings, signs and wonders.

We are still on television, on five local stations (Saugerties, Woodstock, Red Hook, Rhinebeck & Tivoli), and regional TBN, which covers the five boroughs of New York City, Long Island, parts of Connecticut, New Jersey, upstate NY and Pennsylvania. We reach over 15 million homes; this is a real miracle of God.

We belong to the International Council of Community Churches, and the Network of Local Churches in Columbus Ohio, where Apostle LaFayette Scales is President.

My last instructions from the Lord were to continue to pastor the church, and use electronic media to reach beyond the walls. We launched an internet radio station to complete the vision, WJCWord Radio, as well as a Livestream account and YouTube page. Click the links on the left to listen, subscribe, and join.


So pray for me, as I pray for you. Sure hope we get to write my memoirs...
