Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and on behalf of the Honorable Late Apostle John Farris, my name is Aposlte Joyce Farris and I am the First Lady and the wife of the Late Apostle. I have walked with the Apostle since the beginning of the ministry the Lord gave us over 45 years of a beautiful, blessed marriage before calling him home. God has blessed us with two beautiful children, three beautiful grandchildren and an immeasurable number of spiritual children.

The Lord gave me the name of the Church. I believe He gave me the name because when you are walking in the Lord, in all the power and authority He gives you, you truly experience a Greater Life. Prior to the birth of the Greater Life ministry, I have been a faithful church parishioner my entire life and have worked extensively with youth, vacation bible school and directing choirs.

After my husband was called home to be with the Lord, God began dealing mightily with me and the Apostolic anointing and mantle was passed down to me by God. In April 2016, God elevated me to the Office of Apostle and I serve as the Overseer of Greater Life Baptist Church. I will continue to do all I can to carry out the vision and mission God gave my husband.

Apostle Joyce Farris

I have a passion for God's people and love them dearly. When times are tough and you feel like the enemy is at your door, just turn to God and what his word says about our authority over the devil.

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalteh itself against the knowledge of God, bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.

(1 Corinthians 10:4-5)

May God bless and richly keep you as you walk in the way of righteousness.
