I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Matthew 25:36-40

Minister Melvin A, Washington

I was saved in 1980 when Jackie Ray Rose introduced me to Jesus. I’ve been saved for 40 years, and while I was fully committed from the start, it’s been a journey. My preaching style is rooted in love but doesn’t shy away from addressing wrongdoing. Preaching Jesus forms the foundation of my ministry. In a world where right is seen as wrong and good is viewed as evil, I write and perform gospel music, which has been my passion for decades. I’ve been a musician for 40 years and a songwriter for 50 years. Sometimes the lyrics come before the melody and vice versa. I’ve been married for 25 years to my wife, who is not only an ordained minister but also a professional gospel singer. I enjoy listening to music, playing golf, and drawing inspiration from figures like Pastor Terry K. Anderson and Bishop Dale Bronner.

Mission Statement

Melvin A. Ministries envisions a future of eternal life for every soul willing to give their life to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He knows that Jesus loves us and wants everyone to join Him, although sadly, many will fall prey to false prophets. In a world full of false prophets and false prophecies, the beauty of His promise is that once someone gives their life to Jesus Christ and follows the Word of God, the Holy Spirit will equip them with protection against spiritual attacks meant to lead them away from salvation. Overcoming worldly challenges becomes a source of strength and empowerment through faith in Jesus Christ. Melvin A. Washington Ministries’ mission is to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ far and wide, guiding His children to faith and obedience as saved souls in Christ. Repentance, giving one’s life to Jesus, becoming a new creation in Christ, and living out the purpose Jesus has given to all souls are at the heart of this ministry. Led only by the Holy Bible, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus Christ—blessings to all, and welcome to the ministry.

"Baptism is a meaningful step in a believer’s journey with Jesus Christ, symbolizing new life through the use of water. In Acts 1:5, Jesus told them, “John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” Acts 2:41 shares that those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand people were added that day. In Acts 2:38, Peter urged, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

Vision Statement

At Melvin A. Ministries, we are a Holy Bible-based ministry committed to living by the truth of the Word of God. Acknowledging that we all fall short of His glory, our mission is to prepare souls for salvation and the grace it brings, regardless of past sins. For those already saved but struggling with sin, we aim to help them realign with the Word of God and the Holy Spirit through repentance and restoration, guiding them back onto the path of righteousness. In all things, we give Jesus the glory. “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” – Matthew 6:33 and “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.” – 2 Corinthians 5:17-18
