My name is Jackie DePalmo. I am 65 years young. I was born in Venice, CA, situated along the sunny coast of Los Angeles. My husband Peter and I have been married for 46 years. I became a Christian during the “Jesus Movement,” in northern California where I met my husband.

We live in a Christian community. We were taught the Word of God and trained to be sent out to the mission field. Four years after we were married, we began the first of many mission trips by going to West Germany where we lived for three and half years. We encountered many amazing miracles during our time there.

After returning home, we went to many other countries. As you listen to part of my life story, you will see that I have had great joy and sorrow as I have chosen to follow Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.


Removing The Chaos PlaceI found this ministry because I was looking at spiritual roots to my physical issues. I had been dealing with chronic illness since 2013. Some of the issues were hypothyroid, fatigue, inability to exercise, waking up tired from a long sleep, food allergies, auto immune, anxiety, panic, depression, and desperation to get better.
Breaking the Chains of BondageBefore Laura and I came in contact with John Torell, we were living what I consider to be a typical lifestyle of idolatry, listening to rock music and watching ungodly television and movies. If we happened to have an extra glass of wine and got buzzed, it was all in good fun. We had no idea how these practices impacted us spiritually because we were spiritually empty.
My Road To Healing and DeliveranceWarning! If this testimony sounds crazy, here is the reason why: “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14) I praise my Heavenly Father and thank Him that I have the Holy Spirit and understand His mighty word!
Nothing Is Impossible For GodI have been a Christian for many years and had previously gone through deliverance. I have also attended workshops and conferences on deliverance and received some benefit. I was baptized in the Holy Spirit approximately three decades ago in a Pentecostal church. They falsely taught me that a Christian could not have demons and this led to many problems in my life...
The Freedom Jesus BringsSix months ago, just a few days after my deliverance, I stood behind this pulpit sharing what it felt like to be free of mental torment, fear, shame, and disappointment. I was a believer in Jesus Christ but I had mental torment, I suffered from fear, I had shame and many disappointments but I hid from these things for so long that they were just pushed aside to do what I called the work of the Lord.

Genocide of Canadian IndiansLynda Prince was born in a small Indian village in British Columbia, Canada, in 1955. There were 15 children in the family, but only 12 survived into adulthood.

A Broken Heart and a Broken SpiritDuring my 41 years as a Christian, I have met thousands of people who have been spiritually destroyed because of sin. I have seen broken marriages, people sent to prison, drug addicts, suicides, mental illness and many people stricken with diseases from cancer to diabetes. Then there are the people who started out with pornography and slid into child molestation, rape, and incest which landed them in prison. When Jesus walked on this earth, these were the people he came to save.
Testimony of William Roberts. . . Lately, I've been giving a lot of thought and much prayer to my ability/talent to schedule my time more adequately. I discovered that even after all these years of walking with the Lord, I still like to think I can accomplish a whole lot more on my own than I actually can. I struggle to commit and submit myself wholeheartedly to God.
"My Story" by Ramon SalcidoAfter the police flew me back from Mexico to jail in Santa Rosa, a crowd gathered at the jail shouting "Kill him! Kill him!" It was a terrible tragedy and the whole world was shocked. I felt that all I wanted to do was die as I had lost all that I had ever loved. Then a little girl put a Bible in my cell. I read it and accepted Christ as my Saviour.
Terror at TenerifeDuring the years I was the pastor at Christian Life Ministries, I had the opportunity to hear the testimony of Norman Williams in 1978 and the terrible airplane crash which he survived at Tenerife that killed 583 people. Norman Williams told how he survived the fiery cabin and was able to walk down a burning aisle without being touched by the fire.

I found this ministry because I was looking at spiritual roots to my physical issues. I had been dealing with chronic illness since 2013. Some of the issues were hypothyroid, fatigue, inability to exercise, waking up tired from a long sleep, food allergies, auto immune, anxiety, panic, depression, and desperation to get better. I was also struggling with alcohol cravings I kept going back and forth in this even though I knew the Lord told me in 2011 to quit drinking and my life would change...

Breaking the Chains of Bondage
Before Laura and I came in contact with John Torell, we were living what I consider to be a typical lifestyle of idolatry, listening to rock music and watching ungodly television and movies. If we happened to have an extra glass of wine and got buzzed, it was all in good fun. We had no idea how these practices impacted us spiritually because we were spiritually empty. We watched the scariest movies we could find to try and get a spiritual “fix,” and when the movies no longer filled the gap, we ended up searching for an alternative. We took a wrong turn on Netflix and viewed a documentary called Zeitgeist...

Warning! If this testimony sounds crazy, here is the reason why: “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:14) I praise my Heavenly Father and thank Him that I have the Holy Spirit and understand His mighty word! When you ask Jesus into your heart and make Him the center of your life, you too will be given this supernatural understanding and a place in heaven!

I was baptized in the Holy Spirit approximately three decades ago in a Pentecostal church. They falsely taught me that a Christian could not have demons and this led to many problems in my life. Praise Jesus, the Holy Spirit has led me to the truth! This ministry preaches that Christians can have demons and their approach to this problem is entirely different from my previous experiences...

The Blessing of Tithing
There is a blessing from the Lord when we are obedient to His instructions. Sotiris shares what happens when the poor give of their first fruits and see God's faithfulness. "Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts." (Malachi 3:10-12)

Genocide of Canadian Indians
Lynda Prince was born in a small Indian village in British Columbia, Canada, in 1955. There were 15 children in the family, but only 12 survived into adulthood. The Canadian government instituted a policy of eradicating its Indian population in the late 19th century. The bureaucrats came up with a diabolical plan of removing the Indian tribes, but they realized it was not possible to change the adult Indians, so they decided to alter the mindset of the children and accomplish their goal through cultural genocide.

. . . Lately, I've been giving a lot of thought and much prayer to my ability/talent to schedule my time more adequately. I discovered that even after all these years of walking with the Lord, I still like to think I can accomplish a whole lot more on my own than I actually can. I struggle to commit and submit myself wholeheartedly to God. The passionate longing to do so is there and I may very well accomplish a few things in my own strength, but the rewards don't last. Through prayer and God's Word, I have learned that when God's great love flows into my heart, it spreads peace and fulfillment within me...

After the police flew me back from Mexico to jail in Santa Rosa, a crowd gathered at the jail shouting "Kill him! Kill him!" It was a terrible tragedy and the whole world was shocked. I felt that all I wanted to do was die as I had lost all that I had ever loved. Then a little girl put a Bible in my cell. I read it and accepted Christ as my Saviour. Then my heart was flooded with warm waves of forgiveness and true joy. I felt my prayers were heard and answered. I realized that repentance and forgiveness are the only way to come to God's kingdom. The Lord has rescued me from so much pain.

Terror at Tenerife
During the years I was the pastor at Christian Life Ministries, I had the opportunity to hear the testimony of Norman Williams in 1978 and the terrible airplane crash which he survived at Tenerife that killed 583 people. There were two Boeing 747’s which collided on a foggy runway in Tenerife, Canary Islands on March 27, 1977 in the worst aviation accident in history. Norman Williams told how he survived the fiery cabin and was able to walk down a burning aisle without being touched by the fire. He was lifted by an angel through a hole in the fuselage and slid down to the wing. As he stood precariously on the wing about 15 feet from the ground, fear suddenly gripped him and he broke his leg when he landed...
