My name is Annette I reside in Sumter, SC (Shaw Air Force Base), United States. I do serve in my church, Friendship Chapel (Gospel Service) now as a servant unto to God...It was your course that I took when I was serving as an armorbearer. It was so helpful and informative. Answer questions that I didn't know that I should have. It was very enlightening and fruitful for our ministry.

Pastors should buy this book for their people. I loved this book. I bought a whole stack of them and gave them out to the people of my congregation. So far, I have had great feed-back and several of the people that read the book have been volunteering to help in the ministry. This has been a wonderful blessing to our church and ministry.

Praise God and blessings upon both of you. I honor the gifts that God has given to you. I am also a ministry of helps minister in our local church. I was involved in the ministry of HELPS for over 20 years. We have just merged two churches together and in a few days I will be holding the first ministry of helps workshop/conference. Pray for me that I will be obedient to speak what the Holy Spirit would have me speak. Because as Buddy Bell says, "HELPS is Having Enough Loving People Serving"

While searching for information on the topic "Armor Bearer" I was lead to read your article 'Step Into the Ministry of Assisting' which explains exactly what has been happening a young godly woman whom God has assigned to me. She is growing mightily in the Lord. She calls me her 'Spiritual Mother' and is so eager to listen and learn and apply what she's learned. The article is truly a blessing. It is precise, clear and inspired by the Holy Spirit.
Thank you.

I have been truly blessed by the entire write up on armor bearing. I felt called to set up a ministry and teach on armorbearing since our ministry was quite new and people were finding their place. I have been blessed to have spent most of my time growing up in a church environment. But I have never come across such good teaching on armorbearing. That is why I subscribed. I am grateful to have a resource like yours. Our ministry is called Lighthouse International Ministries. May God continue to use and bless you all.

This (Humility Comes Before Honor article) was a word spoken in due season for me. I felt like I felt like God had forsaken me. This article gave me a full understanding of what God is doing in my life. I know that God has great plans for me, and I must be a Vessel of Humility. Certain things that were said in this article, gave me confirmation of other things that the Lord revealed in my life.
May God continue to bless and keep this ministry.

FAQ: Sensing My Male Pastor Doesn't Want Female Armrbr?
I just wanted to comment on this. I believe that a female should be armor bearer for a female and a male with a male. I have been called to be armorbearer for women leaders at my church. But certainly we can pray for any of our leaders regardless. But the closeness of being an armorbearer needs to be kept on a holy and clean level even in appearance.

I want to thank you (Varn and Earma) for supporting and encouraging me in my calling as an Armorbearer through your web site.
Two years ago, I received a call to be Armorbearer to a man of God called to full time leadership of a ministry here in the UK and Europe. I had no idea what an Armorbearer was at the time, only that the Lord showed me to stand by this man and support and pray for him.
Then a friend said one day…that's what you're calling is—you're an Armorbearer. I straight away went to the Internet to read up what I could about this position and discovered your web site.
It has been so helpful and informative--resourcing me in my ministry... It (being an armorbearer) is a calling that brings great joy and burns in my spirit every day. I'm so glad to discover Armorbearers International where I am encouraged that I am not alone.

I appreciate the article. (FAQ: Keep Getting Cut In On-Should I Stop?) There have been others who have tried to use their position in the church to move me out of place and replace me with others who did not see what I do as ministry, but they have failed.
I was really hurt, and it was a struggle to walk in forgiveness, but I also understand that this is a test that will make me better. I love my Pastor with a godly love, and it's in my heart to serve her. I am encouraged to be a blessing until the Lord moves me to do differently.

Varn and Earma, thank you for being obedient in your counsel, advice and godly wisdom. Your answers to questions are truly from the Spirit of the Lord and flow from such a fountain of wisdom.
I am armorbearer to the First Lady of my church in Allentown, PA. Your website has continued to both confirm and bless me and the Spirit of the Lord has used it many times to confirm "I am on the right track." God has truly used the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. People do not understand my commitment to serve, but God is faithful.
I will continue to keep you in prayer. Thank you for being godly and obedient vessels.

I want to thank you for all the great articles you write. I am in my 2nd year of being an armorbearer; your articles always bless and inform me. I have been reading and learning how to become an effective armorbearer for my Pastor.
I love my calling; when God called me to this I had no clue what an armorbearer was, so I have been studying a great deal. I hope to even write my own book on this subject one day...my greatest gift to her right now is my intercession for her daily needs and protection. I am a warrior in the Spirit for her and the Church. Thanks again for shedding light on this wonderful calling.

I just read your article concerning love (February's Featured Article - The Mark of a True Armorbearer.) That was the title (Love) of the message that my first lady preached yesterday. I must say that as the message went forth, I was deeply convicted. I saw myself in the mirror of God's word and it wasn't pretty. I was surprised to see an article on the same subject the day after hearing it preached at church. That lets me know that God is saying the same thing everywhere. Keep me in prayer as I strive to walk in love the way that God wants me to.

"I am glad you asked" because I stepped down and God didn't say it, I just felt like it was the honorable thing & also I didn't want to fight over my Leader I felt like the women with the baby the one that cares the most would let go. not true.

I just wanted say a BIG God bless you for the work that you are doing, equipping the saints for the work of service in ARMOUR BEARING, (we spell it ARMOUR) the english way! Personally I find it to be a very important and misunderstood role within the body, but with the likes of yourself, and others at your level things will continue to change. I am my Senior Pastor's Armour Bearer, in the short while in this office i have come to realise it is an on hands 24/7 service, challenging, yes but very fulfilling.
I will definitely keep in touch because I am about to embark on a new level in this area of service where I know mentoring will be a good thing. For now I leave you in His WONDERFUL hands that will never let you fall.

…I never knew this was such a vital ministry to my senior pastor. The Holy Spirit has been speaking to me over the last 6 months about being an armorbearer. I looked it up in the Bible and thought it was just about praying for my leaders. Last Sunday, I sat alone in service at church and looked at my senior Pastor and began crying. The Holy Spirit said to me "You are her armorbearer." I accepted that call and began a fervent research on this subject. The Lord led me to your ministry for I had no idea what kind of ministry this was. I have loved my pastor unconditionally for a long time and now God has called me to be her armorbearer. What an honor. I am thrilled to begin this ministry to her and want to thank you for obeying what the Lord has put on your heart. I believe this is a vital ministry for the local church body. God wants to awaken his armorbearers for such a time as this.

Now that person is ordained. God has given me a new armorbearer and my heart's desire is to train the whole church using the biblical principles of serving. Servanthood is so important in the Body of Christ. So I speak blessings to you and your husband and encourage you to continue doing the great work for the Kingdom of God.

"This ministry helps by serving others, finding ministry tools and resources and stocking them for you. They serve God by being a conduit for those resources that will help carry His message to others. They support the ones called into leadership, by raising up and training other armorbearers... Articles, reviews, products, a chat forum, workshops, and affiliate ministries found on this site provide links of strength to those who desire to strengthen ministry."

I've been following your site and ministry for about a year now, and I'm so grateful for everything you've provided, and it's been such a help to me. My Pastor and I have been working towards my becoming more of an armorbearer to him, visiting ministers, and others.

Thank you for all your help, and God's continued blessing upon your ministry.

I am writing to offer my thanks and to share an update on how God has been at work. You might remember the email I sent to your ministry last year - asking how one knows if they've been called to be an armorbearer. As I took steps of faith to respond to God's call, He provided opportunities for me to serve; and your book has been a helpful resource...He has opened doors which have led to what I believe will be a very fulfilling ministry. The prayer and words of wisdom that you shared meant so much to me...May God continue to bless you and prosper your ministry.

I am currently leading a small group of intercessors in a Pentecostal church of about 50 members in a small city in Saskatchewan, Canada. I have just discovered your web site and find it greatly encouraging. The resources are informative and useful. I thank God for ministries like AI that help to build up the body of Christ world-wide. God bless you.
