“Receive your healing”
In 2001 pastors Steven and Rita Fedele gave me a very clear prophecy on my life, concerning my work as a lawyer, but also concerning my work in Gods Kingdom. Parts of this elaborate prophecy was repeated in the years after 2001, by the Fedeles as Well as by several other prophets. I can confirm that every part of the word they gave me in 2001, has been fulfilled.
it has been a great honor for me to work with the Fedele couple since 1994. I have interpreted for them in dozens and dozens of services, and I have translated litteraly hundreds of prophecies that were given by them to the believers in the Netherlands. I have seen their lifes, and I have witnessed the great Things God has done through their hands. As part of the church of God in the Netherlands, we owe so very much to these faithful servants of the Lord.

Button“I was healed”
“Years ago the Lord had sent us Pastor Stephen for a few days here in Montreal, at our church A .B.N.M. I had been anemic since the birth of my first child, who at the time was in her thirties. During one of the evenings, Pastor Stephen told me that the Lord was changing my blood that night. I was healed and I praise God for His healing power. I still praise Him and thank Him, and ever since that night I have never had that problem again.”

Button“The miracle happened”
“I would like to share my testimony with you, about a divine healing that I received from the Lord through Prophet Stephen Fedele’s ministry. Twelve years ago I got infected with the hepatitis A & B virus. I thought I would lose my life to the virus, since it had hit my body so hard. On one particular night, I couldn’t see clearly and everything around me was turning at 100 miles an hour. I was bent over, and couldn’t vomit, even though my body was trying to vomit. It was so strong that my blood vessels in my eyes exploded. As I was being rushed to the emergency room, the ambulance technician told me that I vomited something that was stronger than battery acid.
For 3 days my vocal cords were so affected by the vomiting, that I lost my speech. For the following 3 month’s I couldn’t swallow anything solid. I was incapable of digesting anything for the next year. That’s when God intervened, He gave me a verse about the woman with the issue of blood, and He told me that He would heal me that same night. That evening I went to A.B.N.M. church in Montreal, where Prophet Fedele would be ministering that evening. When he made an altar call, I went up to the front, and when he prayed for me, he gave me the exact words the Lord had given me the same morning about the woman with the issue of blood.
The miracle happened instantly. After leaving the church, I went to the restaurant and had a 6 inch submarine sandwich, with French fries and mayo. That night I slept like a baby for the first time in a long time. I thank God for Prophet Fedele’s ministry (Matthew 10:41).”

Button“Free from sickness”
“I have been declared diabetic for the past ten years. I first met Prophet Stephen Fedele in the early 2000’s during a Christian meeting here in Montreal. I was also getting over an automobile accident which had left me with four severely fractured vertebrae. Prophet Stephen Fedele prophesied and laid hands on me during the meeting asking God to heal me. My backaches decreased rapidly during the following months and finally disappeared completely. I am now 65 and the diabetes was diagnosed at the age of 55. Concerning the diabetes, the specialist is astonished at every visit. Of a type 2, and as such since the very beginning, this disease which is considered controllable but nevertheless incurable, is constantly decreasing.
I have gone from a ratio of 28 to 7 and the decrease is confirmed at every medical visit as well as the dosages of medication which help stabilize the sickness. The Lord has also made it possible for me to be set free from the fluctuations of low/high blood pressure, from bad cholesterol and from all other symptoms brought on by diabetes. Today, I am now free from this sickness and God, in His great mercy, has made it possible for me to enjoy extremely good health. Glory be to God!”

Button“I feel 100% blessed”
“My problems started back in 2000 when my right master arm started to hurt in the shoulder from my job as a bus driver. I had 4 surgeries on my right arm as the damage and pain weakened my whole arm from shoulder to fingers. I had bursitis and tendinitis in the shoulder, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel and the worst and most painful thing that developed was ulnar nerve damage. Between 2001 and 2002, I had 4 surgeries on the right arm and it became basically useless. I could not hold the phone in my hand for more than 10 minutes without my hand going numb. Nor could I pour a cup of coffee without shaking uncontrollably.
The worst thing was, I could not write without holding the pen real tight. If I held the pen too loose, it would flip out of my hand. I could not write without baring down on the paper so hard that my pens would bend and sometimes the paper would rip. My arm ached from my elbow down to my last three fingers all of the time. I could not wash dishes without dropping them and breaking them. It was a tough deal. Then, if that was not bad enough, in April of 2003, I fell in my work’s parking lot and tore the left tendon on top of my shoulder. I had so much pain in both arms that I was on 800mg. Ibuprofen 3x a day. I had limited mobility in both shoulders.
Then on March 11, 2006, Rita was at Victory Christian Church where I am a member, and she called up people to the alter who had nerve damage. I walked up and waited in line for what God would say to me through her. The words were, ‘Amen Father I thank you for Jill. Father we release healing over her body. You have some problems through your shoulders and arms.’ I agreed. Rita said, ‘That’s gonna go.’ And go it went. I felt no heat or cold but I did not doubt. I started to notice that I was writing better and that I was taking less pills for my pain within a week. God healed me and I was so blessed. Than other strange things started to happen to me physically. I had a vision of Jesus spreading His light on me twice. These physical feelings started to develop and I did not know what was going on. Then my Spiritual mother Rose told me to get ready because a healing gift was coming upon me.
It developed and Jesus has been healing people through my healed right arm ever since. I asked God why He used the right arm and I heard these words, ‘I am strong through your weakness.’ This is a biblical thing and I feel 100% blessed that our Father would choose to use me to help others. Rita is a blessing to many others and she is a great instrument of God. Thank you Lord for healing me through her and thank you Lord for anointing me also. Blessed are we that choose to follow Him.”

Pastor Michael Servello Junior
I have had the privilege of knowing the Fedeles for close to 40 years of my life. Probably the most significant moment for me regarding their ministry is a key moment when I was 14 years old. I walked down to an altar call Brother Fedele had given during a guest speaking appearance at our church in Herkimer, NY. That moment would mark a turning point in my life. Later that year our churches would merge, and I would have the blessing of being part of the Fedele’s ministry for many years. Through the years I have witnessed that the only thing that has matched their extraordinary gifting is their extraordinary love for people. You will not find a couple who love people more than the Fedeles. Their prophetic gifting is amazing! Honestly, I always thought they were amazing, but I really didn’t see the magnitude of their gift until they returned to minister a few years after relocating to Florida. When they returned, I was blown away by the jaw-dropping accuracy of their prophetic word which was always ministered in a pastoral, compassionate way that makes you feel the heart of God. I could confidently say, along with my entire congregation, that every time the Fedeles are in the house, we are strengthened and built up!
It is a great blessing that God has allowed them to be part of our church family. The older I get the more I realize how blessed I have been, and I am convicted by how much I have taken such valuable gifts for granted. We don’t often think about the environment we have grown up in and really just how much that environment has influenced our lives. I'm thankful that the Fedeles have modeled stability, love, character, and passion for Jesus to me, and so many others that they have touched through the years. They have served faithfully for 40 years and we know the best is yet to come!

My wife Debbie and I have been founding and Senior Pastors for 35 years. After being referred to us by colleagues we agreed to ask Stephen & Rita Fedele Minister for us at the church. We were both breast and blown away at the Prophetic Gift of God flowing through in both of them including accurate
Words of God in the real of word of wisdom and word of knowledge. In turn we became the very closest of friends and have remained so for 28 years continuing to this day! Their Ministry in your church will be edifying for all. Your people will be safe in their hands.

Dear Friends,
Prophets Steve and Rita Fedele have been connected with us for 40 years and are as family to us. They first came into our lives at our farm house church in Sprakers, NY where their traveling prophetic ministry began. My (Gail) parents pastored the church and opened the doors for them to come often and minister to the hungry people gathered there. Then to today, Fedeles faithfully come and minister word in loving and powerful ways. So many times through the years, the prophetic word has been so accurate as they release to the church what God is saying. For example, at our wedding they prophesied a powerful word over us, concerning the church, our ministry and location of the ministry that we would see prove out nearly 20 years later. It is our joy to be their prayer team and God has called upon us to stand in the gap for them in dire times and to hold them faithfully in prayer in good times as well. Many times, I have called on them seeking solid advise and they always take the time to sit and talk, speaking into our lives from a pastoral and prophetic perspective. Prophets Steve and Rita Fedele are a wonderful blessing to our church and to our family. No matter how far they go, no matter how many large churches God sends them to in this world, they have always maintained our relationship and they never fail to come to Sprakers, bringing God's amazing word to a hungry people. Fedeles are a man and woman of good character, a man and woman of God and a man and a woman on whom we pray for God's wonderful blessing to flow.
Love you!

When you were with us in October, Steve prophesied that he saw expansion coming for New Life and a location on a hill in the suburbs that would help support what we do in the city. He even mentioned that churches who were about to close their doors would give properties to us.
I’ll give you more details when we talk next, but the short story is that we are about to absorb a church in the suburbs whose pastor is moving away at the end of July. They had dwindled in number and were unable to maintain the ministry in their building.
They will be giving us their assets as part of the merger, which includes an 8-acre property with a building on top of a hill…
The property has over 100 parking spaces and a sanctuary capacity of 275-300.
We are in the planning stages now, but we will be launching a suburban campus as soon as August-September this year. This will give us suburban and city locations to continue to grow.
Pray for us as we walk through the doors God is opening and follow the words He has spoken to us.
Can’t wait to tell you more at some point.
Blessings!

ButtonPastor Arno Loes Boetius Tabernacle of David, Aruba
We, Pastor Arno & Loes Boetius from the Tabernacle of David Aruba, have known the Fedele’s for 17 years. We first met them in a service in Holland. We were on a crossroads in our lives seeking the Lord for what to do next. We were before a great decision and they prophesied over our lives what the Lord wanted us to do and what would be our next step. What I can testify to is that this was the first time in our lives that we have seen a prophesy being fulfilled so accurately and fast in our lives. From that first impression and experience we decided to invite them to Aruba and since then, they have been the prophets who have helped us build the Tabernacle of David. From the foundation, and for sixteen years they have been coming every year, and now even twice a year to help build the church. And not only our church, but even other churches in Aruba. Altogether they are recognized and accepted in Aruba as genuine prophets. The recognition they have is not only because of their gift that made room for them, but also in a great manner for their integrity and the orderly way they work. They always recognize the local authority in the church and submit themselves to the vision and rules of the church to help build the local church and its leadership. The prophecies are very sharp and accurate and everyone, not only those who received them, but anyone who knows them can testify this. They are also strong in their teachings and because of their forty years of experience in the ministry, we have seen that they can guide, impart, counsel and oversee churches, pastors and leaders in a very sound and godly way.

They are part of our apostolic counsel and we see them as a prophetic
voice speaking into our lives and that of the church.
We are so honored to know pastors Steve & Rita not only as prophets for
our generation, but also as friends and mentors who helped us a lot
in ministry.
When I was just a young man serving the Lord, quickly after my
conversion, pastors Steve & Rita prophesied a very long prophecy
over my life in a presbytery setting when they visited the local
church i served under the leadership of evangelist Jan Zijlstra, and
later on also over my wife, incredibly accurate. Although it’s more
than 15 years ago, I remember every word, and every thing that was
spoken has come into fulfilment. They prophesied over a prophetic
and evangelistic ministry and me traveling the nations as indeed the
Lord has granted such a ministry (at that moment I was just 3 years
delivered from drugs), but also build awareness through the
prophetic to be strong in desert times.
Ever since we’ve build a beautiful relationship together with my wife, and
throughout all the storms of ministry they have been faithful, a true
mentor and friend.
We love them so much and are very grateful for the impartation and
friendship.

We have been blessed by the ministry of Steve and Rita for the past 20 years . They
have been our apostolic covering in the prophetic ministry and in giving good
biblical council. They are also very good friends with whom we enjoy sharing and
laughing .
Their words have been precise and encouraging to us personally and to the church.
Jean Pierre had to tell our people that we had not shared any personal information,
because it was so clear and at the same time said in a way that did not offend or
reveal their private life .
In 2006 we experienced a near catastrophe in the church,a spirit of division was
lifting its ugly head, sneering at us . It was at this crucial time that Steve and Rita
came for 2 nights of prophetic meetings. We did not disclose this problem,but they
sensed it. The 2nd evening ,after the meeting,they asked the leaders to meet in our
elders' home, we were able to expose the situation. Their council was wise and firm
and it saved the church.
How grateful we are for the ministry of Steve and Rita . They are truly faithful and
sensitive to hear and speak God's prophetic word and council

ButtonPastor Michel van Zuthem
You sometimes meet people who really mean something in your life. But once in a while God sends people who have a lasting impact and who actually activate something in your life that you did not even know that God had put in you. Pastor Steve and pastor Rita are those kind of people whom God sent into our lives. Every year Ps. Steve and ps. Rita come to our church in Almelo for prophetic ministry and I really don’t know anyone who prophesies the word of the Lord with such accuracy as they do. They have been a tremendous blessing for our church for many years. And I don’t know exactly when I got to know them, but it must have been somewhere in 2008 that they asked me if they could mentor me in the prophetic ministry. Frankly, I was greatly surprised, because I did not see myself as a prophetic person at all, although I always had the desire to seek the heart of God for others or certain situations. I felt very blessed and I accepted their offer. This was the beginning of a true adventure with God. I felt enormously privileged to be allowed to travel and serve with them throughout the country.
I remember the first time I went with the Fedeles. We went to a church in Zwolle. This was the city where I originally came from and I also knew many people in this chuch. My expectation was that I would just travel along to "watch" how they were doing it. But the Fedeles said that I should immediately minister along. "What?! You mean to participate in the prophetic ministry?” "Yes!" I said "Uhhh, okay…”, a little bit intimidated by this unexpected challenge. The scripture "A prophet is not honored in his own city" immediately crossed my mind. “But if the Fedeles think I can do this, then we’ll see what will happen. God help me!” The first young man we prophesied over, I knew very well. Ps. Steve started prophesying and I really don’t know what he said about him. I felt like I was in a kind of cocoon in which I began to hear certain words and while I heard those words, ps. Rita began to speak the same words over this young man that I just heard in my spirit. I was very shocked by this experience! I realized at that moment that I heard the voice of the Lord in a supernatural way.
In the first year that I traveled with the Fedeles, I felt incredibly insecure, every time I was looking for something tangible that I could hold on to. A kind of formula or method with which I could hold on, but there was none. It was 'getting out of the boat' and taking a step on the water, trusting that God will put the words in your mouth. I was used to prepare a sermon, for example, to put something on paper, but with the prophetic ministry you can not prepare yourself in that way and that sometimes made me feel very insecure.
But I am ps. Steve and ps. Rita very grateful that they have thrown me into the deep, this was the only way for me to stir up the prophetic gift in me that God had put in me. Since then I have learned a lot from them about the prophetic ministry. They are no longer ps. Steve and ps. Rita to us, but they have become family to us; they are “uncle Steve and auntie Rita” to us. And we are very happy and grateful that they are in our lives and have a voice in our lives!

As church leaders we needed a presbytery for a group of leaders. It would help us to see what is Gods calling on their lives. Also we wanted to know if we positioned the leaders already in the right place or we should think about getting them to a new place of influence. Unfortunately prophets Steve and Rita Fedele were not in the position to come to our church on short notice. So we did a new thing: we had a skype meeting. Unfortunately the internet connection was not stable. So every time they saw the new person to whom they had to prophesy to, for a few seconds. The audio connection was stable the whole time. Although this was in the natural a handicap, every prophesy was so accurate and encouraging and also gave a new insight in the plan of God for each person. God really knows us all and uses the prophets even through a not so good working skype connection. We honor God for that!

ButtonPhilippe Montuire Pastor The Tabernacle in Dijon, France
I have met Pastor Steve Fedele on the end of 1994 in Canada. The next summer, he came to France with his wife Rita and their children. They ministered to the Church I was pastoring at that time and from there, our relationship never ceased until today.
Since then, every year, I set up the schedule for Steve and Rita’s ministry in France, Belgium and Switzerland. In the first years, Steve often came by himself and I had the privilege to travel with him. These were times where I received and learned so much. I learned watching Steve serving the Lord in every kind of churches, either small or big, open to the prophetic or skeptical, close or far away. The same dedication and the same love for the people of God, night after night, week after week. Steve and Rita stayed faithful, and still are, to visit the churches in Europe and pioneered the message of the five-fold ministry.
The beginnings were humbling and they often spent their health and sometimes their money to be faithful to the call of God. A few years ago, as we were travelling, Steve felt terribly sick. I was driving the car, he was seated next to me and Rita was seated on the back seat. All of a sudden, Steve fainted and literary died in my car! As you read this awesome testimony in this book, you will be encouraged and strengthen in your faith in Jesus Christ who is Lord over life
and death!
Perseverance makes the difference! I’m a witness of the impact of Steve and Rita’s ministry in Europe. Their prophetic ministry and their teachings on the fivefold ministry had a great influence on many people. Today, they work along several apostolic networks in France. When I look back to the first years of their coming, I see God’s faithfulness in bringing forth the fruit of their ministry in my country. I also realize how much I’m blessed to know them and to have them as mentors and spiritual father and mother in the faith. And I’m sure you will be blessed too as you read the story of their lives and service toward God.

We have the privilege of knowing the Fedeles for approximately 8 years. Their wonderful Prophetic Voice International Ministry has restored our faith in the Prophetic Office. Both the teaching about the prophetic, as well as the abundance of prophetic words we have heard from them, have blessed us and given testimony of the authenticity of this ministry. For sure Brother Steve and Sister Rita Fedele are prophets of the Lord. In our family life as well as in the church, we have seen the prophetic word spoken and doors opened. Uncountable stories can be told about the fruits of the ministry.
A word of prophecy that stands out was given to a brother in his fifties, unmarried. The word was that he would become a father of many sons! A few years later, Europe was flooded by many refugees from the Middle East. One of them was an young man from Iraq. He came to the Lord and soon after led another young Muslim from Afghanistan to Jesus. Because they were without a home Baba Ate (the man who received the word) took pity on them and offered them shelter. Ate is a Dutch name, but Baba is the Farsi name for father. This released a small revival and in a period of 5 years approximately a hundred young Muslim men and a few women from Afghanistan came to the Lord. Some of them, up to 12 at a time, were living in the house of Baba Ate. This man in his fifties became a father for all these converted young Muslims! Just amazing! The prophetic word became flesh.
As a leader, I have admired the attitude of the Fedeles, always submitting to the local leadership. They demonstrate sharp insight not only from prophetic point of view but also with an apostolic anointing and a shepherd’s heart. They have a sharp insight into many church issues and when asked, offered us good council.
This gave me all the freedom of heart to introduce them in several Dutch assemblies of God churches, some of which had no history of prophets in the house. All the pastors, without exception, gave a good report.
Special for us were the times in Romania. The Romanian church culture is abundant in prophecy but in general lacked insight in the proper protocol. The inviting pastors were released and blessed to hear the high teaching levels regarding the prophetic. In our local church we are honored that the Fedeles are willing to bestow advice in the apostolic office.
An extra word of appreciation for all the years of living in suitcases and pouring out their lives in the service of the Lord. Holland is blessed by this great ministry, serving the church and serving our nation.

Romania Conference
From 22-24 of February, we had the privilege to introduce Brother Stephen and Sister Rita Fedele to the Filadelphia church in Jibou, Romania. As a local church in Heerhugowaard, the Netherlands, we have good relationship with the leadership of the church. We felt it would be of great importance if the leadership of the Romanian church would come into contact with Prophetic Voice Ministries. As we proposed this to the leadership, they gladly accepted the vision, so the conference was scheduled last February. The teaching on the prophetic was new to the leadership and to the church, as the pastor shared. But this was exactly what I was waiting for. It was just awesome to see how hungry the people were for the Word and the moving of the Spirit. It was a few weeks before that the pastor had shared with the church that there will come a day that we will dance before the Lord; the churches in Romania are not at all familiar with this freedom in the church. But what the pastor already in a way prophesied actually happened in the anointing of the Spirit. Totally new for the church and breakthrough! Slava Domnului, Romanian for Praise the Lord! As pastor of a local church in the Netherlands, it was a blessing for me to be a witness of the way both Brother Stephen and Sister Rita spoke into the lives of the leadership of the church. With so much respect for the local leadership and servants hearts, the Lord used them mightily and with authority to speak and advise about the foundations of the church according t0 Eph.2:20. The church in Romania will never be the same! We continue to pray for them that the Lord will grant the leadership the wisdom to advance into the new direction. Already the invitation for a conference next year is given. The Lord for sure will continue and finish one day what He started in this beautiful country Romania.

From 1998 till now the Fedeles have ministered in “De Banier” several times each year and we have been tremendously blessed by their ministry. Often they would stay in our home and at times we traveled together to minister in other countries, but we have seen that they are in private what they are in public: ministers with a GOOD report.
Their preaching and teaching is biblically sound, and their prophetic ministry is Spirit-inspired and very accurate. Through the years countless people in our church and many other churches we are in relationship with have been blessed and strengthened in their walk with God because of the prophetic words they received through the Fedeles. Many pastor friends have received wisdom and insight through their counsel, feeling very safe because they know the Fedeles honor the office of the Pastor. They will not prophecy over people when there is no leadership present to judge the prophetic word.
Especially their ministry in “presbytery meetings”, many times together with Dr. Eldon Wilson, has had a lasting impact on the people receiving ministry. For us as pastors these special gatherings were the highlights of the year: church members, totally unknown to the prophets, received confirmation/identification of their calling and place in the local church, insights about past, present and future, specific instructions, sometimes corrections or warnings in love. But these members were always encouraged and further equipped for the work of the ministry as they received tools to “wage the good warfare, having faith and a good conscience”.
For quite some years we have been the Fedele’s contact person for the Netherlands, taking care of their ministry schedule. Practically every church they minister in wants them back and we whole-heartedly recommend them. We pray the Lord will continue to use them in an increasingly effective way for many, many years to come

We ontmoetten de Fedeles voor het eerst in 1995. Ik was gevraagd door een bevriende voorganger om hen te vertalen. Zij bedienden d.m.v. presbytery, samen met Dr. Eldon Wilson; later die avond werden mijn vrouw en ik ook bediend. Het was een woord dat ons hart raakte, heel accuraat, en het bracht zegen, genezing en richting. Een deel van de woorden over onze toekomst die die avond uitgesproken werden werd vervuld toen we samen een zendingsreis naar Indonesië maakten, vijftien jaar later! Zij waren het vergeten, maar ik herinnerde me die profetische woorden heel goed!
Sinds de negentiger jaren zijn ze elk jaar onze gemeente komen bedienen. In prediking en onderwijs, en altijd profetisch. Hun profetische seminars en onderwijs zijn zo bijbels en praktisch. Sinds 2008 hebben ze ook bediend d.m.v. presbytery, verscheidene avonden achter elkaar, en we blijven ons verbazen over de accuraatheid en wijsheid waarmee ze het Woord uitspreken over het leven van mensen. De levende stenen in het huis worden op hun plaats gezet, bedieningen worden geïdentificeerd, en persoonlijke zaken worden aangeroerd en genezen. Vol blijdschap en vertrouwen organiseren we hun programma in Nederland en leggen we contact met voorgangers over hun bediening in de gemeenten. Meestal te veel samenkomsten in te weinig weken… en bijna altijd zeggen de voorgangers ons: “Laat ons weten wanneer ze hier weer zijn, want we willen dat ze weer terugkomen!” En dat wil heel wat zeggen!

Since the nineties, they have ministered in our church every year. In preaching and teaching, and always in the prophetic. Their prophetic seminars and teaching on other subjects are just so scriptural and practical. From 2008 they have ministered in presbytery, several evenings in a row, and we never stop to be amazed at the accuracy and wisdom in which they speak the Word over people’s lives. The living stones in the house are set in place, ministries identified, and personal issues touched and healed. With great joy and confidence we organize their itinerary in Holland, contacting pastors about their ministry in churches. Usually too many meetings in too few weeks… and about always the pastors tell us: “Let us know when they are here again, because we want them back!” And that says a lot!

Dear Stephen and Rita Fedele
We have had the privilege to know you for the last 15 years in the office of pastors, prophets and apostles. During these years we have seen, enjoyed and experienced your faith, gifts and ministry.To us, you and your ministry have been very imported and powerful. You are people of integrity and pureness.
Your love for God, your zeal for the Name of Jesus and your walk in the power of the Holy Spirit have been and still is a tremendous blessing and example to us. It’s all about Jesus, uplifting the body of Christ, building the church and expanding the Kingdom of God.
For ourselves and our family you have been very important in helping us to function in the perfect will of God. You have spoken prophetic words that gave us courage, conformation and direction to serve the Lord faithfully.
In the beginning of 2006, in a meeting where you where serving, you gave us a prophetic word. It was in a time that we felt we where on a crossroad, not knowing where to go and what to do. You told us that the mantle that did’nt fit untill then, will fit now and will be confirmed to us in less than six month. Six months later my wife and I became pastors of a church in the centre of Holland. Allthough, allready 57 years of age, this was my first and only church pastoring. The mantle fitted perfectly. Pastoring the church became our greatest joy. Life’s been transformed, souls have been saved, sick have been healed and believers have been filled with the Holy Ghost. After buying a new building and after ten years of serving we handed church over to our daughter and son in law, who are now the new pastors.
You helped us enormous in building the church. Your ministry, teachings, sermons and prophetic words for ourselves, our leadership and church members has been priceless.
Even now in our season of leading Leaders in the Netherlands throughout our network: Friends for Ministries in Fellowship, you still stand with us and be of great impact and influence for our Nation.
We pray for the years to come that God will bless you mightily and you yourself will prosper, be healthy and be full of joy in serving the King of Kings.
Well done good and faithfull servants and congratuliations with your 25th anniversary!
We love you,
Hans and Esther Tims

We are grateful for the Fedele's faithfulness to bring the word which led us to the perfect property that the Lord had for us and we are grateful for their ministry and friendship.
At one point our church was about to purchase a piece of ground for a new building. Sister Rita gave a prophecy Rotterdam can say there is no ground, but the Lord will give you ground. .In a short period of time the Lord gave us a beautiful piece of land where we were able to build the Dome which is a multipurpose building for the glory of God. It seats 2000 people,.

Ils sont devenus pour nous des références dans le ministère prophétique et des conseillers dans ce domaine et dans le ministère en général. Ils sont devenus des amis personnels et pour notre communauté. Je recommande chaleureusement leur ministère.

We received Prophets Steve and Rita Fedele for the first time in our congregation in 2008, and since then, we have invited them every year! They became for us key people in the prophetic, advising us in this domain and in the ministry generally speaking. They also became personal friends for us and for our congregation. I warmly recommend their ministry.

I had been an elder for 10 years before becoming the first pastor in a church in Oron-la-Ville, Switzerland. In 1993, with my wife and a couple of friends, we went to Canada at the invitation of a friend who was a pastor. Our friend, Pierre Cyr, then led us to a ministerial meeting in Utica, New York. This is where we first met Steve and Rita Fedele.
They prophesied over us through our translator, Diana, and we quickly realized the depth and the truthfulness of their ministry and also found out they wanted to serve Europe. When I came back to Switzerland, I talked about them to my elders’ council. By joint agreement, we joyfully welcomed them and they came with a serving attitude and great submission to the pastor and leaders.
In our discussions, the question of an apostolic and a prophetic covering came up. I was at the beginning of my full time ministry after 10 years as an elder and a former farmer. The Fedeles taught us how important it is to have a spiritual covering and how to use it. This created a unanimous desire to step further into this process of welcoming Steve and Rita and a local ministry (Jean-Claude Chabloz) as a prophetic and apostolic covering. This was revolutionary for us and gave a strong empowerment to the future development of our small community located in a rural town of 1500 inhabitants. At this time, we were a hundred or so members and 20 years after, this church now counts more than 750.
The Fedeles were always reachable and willing to advise us and prayerful to seek the will of God. They were, of course, very appreciated by our church but also by other people. Indeed, during prophetic meetings there was a great participation. So many of their prophetic words helped people to achieve their call and identity as sons and daughters of God. We always have been astonished by how they gave true prophetic words and spoke into hundreds of people’s lives in a single meeting—so extraordinary!
Speaking at least for myself, as a pastor, Steve and Rita helped me to get into an apostolic ministry. They have also been a blessing through their prophetic voice and advice to my wife, Mado, and our children, particularly to my son Nicolas, who is today the senior pastor of this church.
I give thanks to God for all the time we have walked with Steve and Rita, for their love and resources and that they are still with us and our 8 churches (Gospel Center), planted over these last years.
Thank you, we love you and we owe you so much.
