Bishop Dr. Kelvin B. Pleasent | Raleigh, North Carolina

For over 30 years, he has been sharing his talents, gifts, and abilities with the church. He also shares these with the Marketplace. Marketplace Ministry is God’s strategic plan to reach the entire world for Jesus. Marketplace Ministry normally takes place outside the four walls of the church. Christians spend most of their time in the marketplace. This includes home, work, and community. They interact with people from all “walks of life.” God wants to use the marketplace to reverse the downward spiral. Corruption and sin are running rampant. The family structure is being destroyed. God’s people are the instruments of change in the earth. These Marketplace Business owners, though need guidance on business as well as ministry and how they intersect.
Kelvin himself is a Christian Business Leader and Overseer with years of experience in business and ministry. He has shared valuable knowledge with Christians who are leaders in the business world, both nationally and internationally. These are people who work for themselves, have churches or own small businesses, but most importantly, they love the Lord. The shared relationship with Kelvin motivates them and radically changes how they approach their work. In the bible there is a classic picture of Jesus washing the feet of the apostles. He takes this position of a servant throughout his ministry; Kelvin has as well.
