Audio/Video Ministry-Greg Lindsey

Our sanctuary is outfitted with state of the art audio and video equipment to provide an enjoyable worship experience. Our audio/video ministry works extremely hard to ensure everything is working properly and complimenting the flow of the service.

Bus Ministry-Dan and Audrey Williams

For over forty years the Bus Ministry of The Apostolic Sanctuary as reached out to children of all ages and race across the Quad-Cities. Dedicated men and women minister weekly to encourage Sunday school attendance as an alternative to the various vices that entice our younger generation. Pop Sunday, Ice Cream socials, dirt and worms, Popcorn Sunday, Easter egg hunt, Candy Rain, Popsicle Sunday, and Dollar Sunday are just a few of the many ways we "compel" (Luke 14: 23) the children to come hear the Word of God!

Comfort Ministry-Greg and Annette Lindsey

Every week, precious people in Nursing homes across the Quad-Cities are forgotten as society goes about its busy life. We at The Apostolic Sanctuary take this ministry extremely serious. Currently, we minister to over 400 seniors in five separate Nursing home facilities on a weekly basis. A special visit by their bed for prayer and a simple "I love you," a time of singing traditional hymns of worship and thanksgiving, as well as sharing the precious Word of God, help to make them feel important and esteemed.

Creative Ministry-Teresa Himbebauch

This is exactly what it says-an hour filled with powerful teaching of the God's Word through puppets, songs, dramas, illustrative preaching, and exciting interaction. This dedicated group ministers every Sunday morning during our Sunday school sessions. You don't want to miss, because you never know what they will come up with next to make the Word become real to the children. Even the adults look forward to them coming to the "big" church and making us all "become as little children" (Matthew 18: 3). Why not let your kids come?

Deaf Ministry-Jeff Williams

There are over 250 million deaf people world-wide (for God so loved the "deaf" world that he gave his only begotten son); 98% are still waiting to "hear" (that whosoever believes in him, shall not perish but have everlasting life)-John 3:16

At The Apostolic Sanctuary we are excited about the potential of ministering to this un-reached element of our society. With six qualified interpreters, we are ready and able to provide a quality service to those who need assistance in this area. There is a special anointing that flows as the Deaf choir ministers in song and heaven is stirred by the "sound" of their praise.

Home and Family-Brett and Karey Rowell

At The Apostolic Sanctuary we teach God is number one, your FAMILY is number two, and the church is number three; and if each is kept in the proper position, then none of them will suffer. We believe the church is only as strong as the individual family units. Therefore, we place heavy emphasis on strengthening the family. On Memorial Day and Labor Day our families come together for some Summer time fellowship, food, and fun. We also provide an annual marriage retreat to fortify the bond of the husband and wife.

Within this ministry is our Young Married Ministry. We all understand the growing process of the newly married; toothbrush in the wrong spot, overlapping schedules, in-laws, and "my clothes go where?" It is the desire of this ministry to be a support and encouragement as we share moments of laughter, sadness, and victories.
The Rowells are always coming up with fun and fresh ideas to strengthen young family ties and to promote fellowship among our young couples.

H.O.P.E. (Helping Other People Excel)-Lou Ramirez

The Quad-Cities is nearly 370,000 people strong. It is the 116 largest metro area in the United States. Every day thousands cry out for hope; they are reaching for something that only God can give. Through Him, we work to give them H.O.P.E. (Helping Other People Excel). Cup of love provides us the opportunity to bless them both naturally and spiritually. We teach Bible studies in the jail and conduct Apostolic services in the county jail and state prison.

The CIP program (Christian Intervention Program) is in the planning stage. Classes will be provided for those who want freedom from these addictions; more information will be available in the near future.

Hyphen - Tom and Theresa Huff

Hyphen is a young adult ministry bridging the gap between student and adult ministries.  We desire to connect young adults with their purpose by investing in ministries and utilizing resources that will equip them to reach their calling in the Lord.

Kitchen-Jodi Ineichen

Part of our philosophy at The Apostolic Sanctuary is "a church that is together stays together." We are blessed with a first-class commercial kitchen, as well as top-notch cooks who love to minister and see us grow. Family nights will be an important part of our future; full menus, games, activities, and fellowship will help us to minister to one another, but also allow us to reach out to our community in a unique way.

Ladies Ministry-Mindy Randol

This ministry is led by our first lady and attempts to honor, support, and motivate this vital element of The Apostolic Sanctuary. Monthly meetings, which might include devotions or Bible studies, shopping trips, or a ladies' night out, and weekly prayer meetings are some of the ways we endeavor to strengthen and encourage the ladies of our church. Two overnight trips are planned annually; one is geared towards shopping and entertainment and the other is our District Ladies Conference in Bloomington, IL. In addition, a yearly Ladies' Banquet is held in May to honor them for the special role they perform in God's kingdom.

Men's Ministry - Brett Rowell

Men are extremely important to the moral strength of our society. As the spiritual head of the family it is essential that they surround themselves with godly influences. We invite you to attend one of our prayer breakfasts; where we feed our soul with the Word and our flesh with some of the best cooking around. The men also enjoy a weekly basketball session (through the winter months), and softball. A three-fold cord is not easily broken (Ecclesiastes 4:12) and our goal is to stand in the gap for each other.

Music Ministry-Patti Stephenson

The Apostolic Sanctuary is extremely blessed with a gifted and anointed music department. Piano, organ, bass, acoustic guitar, drums, brass, and strings blend together in traditional, contemporary, and modern worship. They prayerfully set the tone of each service as they minister before the throne of God. Come and worship with our anointed praise team!

QC Prayer Force-Willard and Karen Willhouse

It is still true today-God answers prayer! He also expects us to pray daily and deepen our walk with Him through personal devotion. In order to bond, stimulate, organize, and mobilize the saints of The Apostolic Sanctuary in faith and prayer for specific needs and requests, we come together on a monthly basis in homes throughout the Quad-Cities. Our desire is to attain a spirit of unity in prayer that will allow God to work miraculously in our midst (Mark 11:24, Luke 11:9, and John 15:7). Each member is encouraged to invite a neighbor, friend, or stranger to join these powerful times of unity. No matter your age, race, or location, I know there is a place for you!

Single Adult Ministry - Angie Carnell

Single Adult Ministry is here to affirm adults who are single by choice or by circumstance as whole, worthwhile persons and meet their unique spiritual and social needs.  We are endeavoring to reach out to all singles (i.e. never married, divorced, single parents, and widowed) by offering many ports of entry to supportive Christian fellowship through a variety of activities and programs.  We want to build a strong single adult constituency for the purpose of edifying the church and reaching out to those who do not know Jesus. 

Sunday School Ministry-Rhonda Lindsey

The backbone of our church for the past forty years has been our desire to be a service to the community, as well as "train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." (Proverbs 22: 6) Our dedicated and qualified staff of over thirty is committed to making this time of learning both enjoyable and informative. The learning centers are utilized as a teaching tool, while keeping the environment warm, inviting, and enlightening. Bible stories and theme-related crafts, games and snacks are a part of each Sunday morning class.

All children are invited and encouraged to join us for an exciting time of learning God's Word.

Sunshine Girls-Jeannie Albright

This ministry was created to minister to the special needs of our daughters with the primary goal of presenting them as accomplished, well-mannered young ladies in today's world. It is our desire to teach them to obey everything Jesus commanded us-developing our girls spiritually and mentally - and to provide a setting in which they can develop their gifts and abilities. Each member has a uniform and is encouraged to participate in meetings and special activities to earn badges and beads.

The girls are divided into four groups ranging in ages from 5-18.

Ushers-Ken Holmes

Our dedicated and friendly ushering staff assists and serves our saints and guests to assure they are comfortable in every service. From opening doors, helping distribute handouts, finding seats for our guests, and making sure they keep one eye on Pastor-and all this done with a smile!

Mission Made Possible (M²P)

Each year we endeavor to stand by our missionaries, both foreign and home, with prayer and finances. Each month a newsletter is given to the members that spotlights a missionary we support, shares various good reports, and encourages them to continue their giving to this worthy cause.

Young Married Ministry-Brett and Karey Rowell

We all understand the growing process of the newly married; toothbrush in the wrong spot, overlapping schedules, in-laws, and "my clothes go where?" It is the desire of this ministry to be a support and encouragement as we share moments of laughter, sadness, and victories.
