COLLEEN'S BIO
MY HEART - As an Evangelist, I take the mandate of our Lord Jesus Christ seriously. My heart burns with passion to win the lost. Over the years I have been on a constant assignment of equipping the church. My goal is that through multiplication evangelism, multitudes would be saved and folded into the church. My mission is the Great Commission!
Colleen Wheeler, Evangelist
Founder/President
THE BEGINNING - Colleen Wheeler was radically saved in 1994 in one of the darkest places of Cape Cod Ma, after having an open eye vision of a cross overlaying the moon. Immediately, the Lord transported her to NYC, 45 minutes away from where she was born and raised. She sought the gifts of the Holy Spirit and was led to a Long Island church where there was an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It was not long before the Lord called her into the ministry as His evangelist.
The ministry was birthed in summer of 1996, in Flushing Meadow Park after eight months of onsite prayer. After the Lord gave the command to "Go." She obeyed and literally 100’s of people prayed to receive Jesus! The following winter during a prayer meeting, the Lord inspired a Scripture verse, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." Luke 10:2 (NASB), which gave the title for the ministry.
EQUIPPING - Desiring to see the church reach its outreach and discipleship potential, at times. Colleen has spent months and sometimes up to a year accomplishing this task. She works with large, small and new church plants, training pastors and raising up leaders, releasing them to oversee various evangelistic, discipleship and follow up ministries. Breaking new ground wherever the Lord sends her, gaining favor with town authorities; doors burst open to minister the gospel creatively as the Lord leads her.
EVANGELISM - Functioning as an itinerant minister; Colleen preaches, teaches, conducts evangelistic services, and trail blazes street, park and church outreaches. She colabors with pastors, leaders, and ministries to accomplish the prophetic vision the Lord gives her. She trains multi-cultural, multiracial churches of various denominations from all over the US and leads them into the harvest field: door-to-door evangelism, street tract attacks, flea markets, restaurants, parks, the projects, subway stations, feeding the hungry and giving away free clothes. Also, pitches a tent anywhere she can, in front of a church, in the middle of town, or parks; a tent was set up in Union Square Park in NYC during 9/11, Boardwalk in Coney Island on Memorial Day, and in various parks to reach the masses.
MISSIONS - Having a heart to reach the nations. Colleen evangelized in Spain to North African Muslims and connected those who received Christ to churches there. Campus Crusade for Christ flew her to their Orlando Headquarters and trained her to train Pastors and leaders for short-term missions. Currently she is forming relationships with a Bishop in Kenya and Pastors in Philippines for future crusades.
EDUCATION - She graduated from Bethel Bible Institute in NY with a Bachelors Degree in Biblical Studies where she also taught Life Experience Evangelistic Courses and took her students to the streets for their final exams. She received a certificate from Billy Graham's School of Evangelism, graduated from Frances Frangipane's "In Christ's Image" school.
ACCOUNTABILITY - Colleen is the founder and President of Lord of the Harvest Ministries, a 501-c-3 organization, which has a Board of Advisers. She is also an affiliate with Frances Frangipane's "Advancing Church Ministries Association" and "The Pocket Testament League".
MINISTRY STATUS - LOTHM is a 501-C3 non profit tax exempt organization.
WHAT LEADER'S ARE SAYING?
The "Gift of Love Event" was conducted at Faith Life Ministries on July 2009 by Evangelist Colleen Wheeler from LOTHM. It was truly a blessing in our summer outreach! Because of her great passion for souls and the strong anointing on her ministry the Lord really blessed it. The church was packed and about 45 persons responded to the invitation.There was also deliverance and healing ministry. At present we are doing follow up ministry. I encourage pastors to take advantage of this unique ministry. It's fruitful and productive. -Pastor Kelvin Bernard (Faith Life Ministries)
Evangelist Colleen Wheeler has brought joy and triumph to our church and community February 2009 when we hosted the GIFT OF LOVE EVENT. Our church experienced an overwhelming response when about 200-250 persons along with children turned out to hear the message of salvation preached in a dynamic and creative way by Evangelist Wheeler. Seventy-two responded for salvation at the altar. Every one who came to this event received a GIFT OF LOVE! AWESOME! Colleen's drive and passion for souls is rare, and for that she is deeply appreciated by our ministry. We thank God for her and ask for His richest blessings in all her endeavors. - BISHOP JOSEPH AND COLEEN NORTHOVER H.G.M.C.(House of God Mission Church Inc.)
Colleen loves the Lord and loves people. God has given her the desire and gift to encourage and equip others to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with those who don’t yet know Him. With less than 4% of the average congregation even sharing their faith once each year, Colleen’s gifts are greatly needed by churches everywhere. I strongly encourage you to invite her to your church today to jump start your congregation’s evangelism efforts and see the pews filling with new followers of Christ.- Jim West, Executive Director, The Pocket Testament League
"The passion for lost souls could not be revealed more than the way Evangelist Colleen demonstrated it through her training skills and the Bronx Tremont Park Outreach activities where over 62 people prayed to receive Jesus!” CAC Living Hope Chapel is a proud beneficiary of Colleen's God-given tools for evangelism. Our partnership with her Ministry (LOTHM) is remarkable and memorable."
- Pastor Michael Oladubu, CAC Living Hope Chapel, Bronx, New York

TENETS OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE in one sovereign God eternally existing in the three persons: the Father, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, the giver of life.
WE BELIEVE that God has revealed Himself in the Scriptures and supremely in Jesus Christ. The Scriptures are inspired by God and inerrant in the original writing, so that they are fully trustworthy and of supreme and final authority in all they say.
WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was true God and true man, existing in one person and without sin; and we believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, and in His ascension into heaven.
WE BELIEVE that God created Adam and Eve and they were created in His own image. They sinned by rebelling against God's revealed will thereby incurred both physical and spiritual death, and that as a result all human beings are born with a sinful nature that leads them to sin in thought, word, and deed.
WE BELIEVE in the existence of Satan, sin and evil powers, and that all these have been defeated by God in the cross of Christ.
WE BELIEVE that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, as a substitution sacrifice, triumphing over all evil; and that all who believe in Him are justified by His shed blood and forgiven of sin.
WE BELIEVE all who receive the Lord Jesus Christ by faith are born again of the Holy Spirit, thereby become children of God. We believe the Holy Spirit imparts understanding of the Scriptures and empowers believers for godly living and service.
WE BELIEVE in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He imparts gifts to every believer as He wills for the service of His church.
WE BELIEVE the one, holy, universal Church is the body of Christ's people. The task and obligation of Christ's people in this world is to be witnesses of the Lord Jesus Christ and to seek the salvation of others.
WE BELIEVE Jesus Christ will soon return to this earth, personally, and visibly, the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting punishment of the lost, and the everlasting life of the saved.
