Recovery Church Beachside FL

Blessings brothers and sisters, Pastor Angel & Dawn Villalobos here, and our lives have been transformed by Jesus Christ, He has delivered us from drugs, alcohol and death. Since the invitation to follow Jesus, our lives have turned from jails, institutions and death to LIFE, FREEDOM, and SOBRIETY. We answered the call and because of our obedience we now have an eternity with Our Father in heaven. Our passion is spreading the message of hope to anyone who will listen and evangelizing the church. We are honored to work with Recovery Church, leading others to Jesus through a 12-step Christ centered road map. This is a movement with a call to action, we invite you to join us, locking arms with the body of Christ and this Rag-Tag bunch we call Recovery Church. Luke 4:18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me to be hope for the poor, healing for the broken hearted, and new eyes for the blind, and to preach to prisoners, ‘You are set free!’ I have come to share the message of Jubilee, for the time of God’s great acceptance has begun.”

My name is Martha Emidio (Marty) I'm a grateful believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. I'm passionate about recovery and helping others. I look forward to having the opportunity to help lead and serve our beachside community!

Press and Gena Barnhill are a husband and wife prayer ministry team who long to see people set free and experience spiritual growth through the power of the Holy Spirit. We have been involved in healing prayer ministry since 2010 and have seen hundreds of people enjoy freedom from emotional wounds, including 200 men in a detention center. We developed the Simple Effective Prayer model after we retired from university teaching and received healing for our emotional wounds. We wrote several books on healing prayer, including our Simple Effective Prayer manual. Press worked in various management positions in business before teaching business at the university level. Previously, Gena worked as a school psychologist, autism consultant, Board Certified Behavior Analyst, counselor, and registered nurse. However, it was not until we were trained in inner healing prayer that we fully understood the power of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is essential for healing, and we rely on Him in each prayer session. Our passion is to see people set free.

Hello, My name is Preston, I was born in Waynesville, N.C. I grew up in Daytona beach, Florida.  Cooking and martial arts have always been my passion, but my new found love for Christ Jesus has put me in the position to do what I truly love, and that is to help people find themselves outside of addiction and gain a new life which God has bestowed upon all of us...God bless you all.

Hi, I’m Samuel—a native Texan now living in Daytona Beach with my beautiful wife, Melody, and our son, Isaiah. From my early teens to age 30, I was trapped in homosexuality and drug & alcohol addiction. My life was a broken cycle of rehabs, jails, failed relationships, and pain. But 22 years ago, Jesus saved me and set me free from addiction!

Hi, I’m Melody – born and raised in North Carolina, now living in the Daytona Beach area. I had an encounter with Jesus and the Holy Spirit that changed my life forever! I had been chasing love and identity in all the wrong places. God delivered me from lies and shame, then revealed to me what real love is. God has restored my true identity as His daughter and revealed Himself as the perfect Father I always needed.

Samuel was ordained in 2016 in Katy, TX, attended IHOP-KC University and CfaN School of Evangelism and currently in the CfaN Evangelism Alliance. He previously worked as an Executive Director in senior living management for over 20 years. Melody attended Morningstar School of Ministry and IHOPU Forerunner Music Academy and is also a Graphic Designer. Samuel preaches the gospel, teaches, and ministers at Father Heart retreats. Together, they led a ministry focused on serving the sexually and relationally broken, leading discipleship groups, worship and prayer ministry, and prophetic ministry. Their passion is to help others experience God’s love, break free from addiction through Jesus Christ, and find healing and restoration of their true identity. They currently lead Wave Ministries Global, an evangelistic and equipping ministry focused on revival, awakening, and the harvest.

My name is Tara Grabowski, and I am a grateful believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. This narrative is not just my story; it is a testament to the incredible power of God's love, grace, and transformation. Twelve years ago, my life was entwined in the darkness of drug addiction. I was lost and hopeless, wandering down a path that would have ultimately led to my ruin. But God had a plan for me. I encountered His love in a profound way when I walked through the doors of Faith Farm. Here, amidst the supportive community, I began to discover the healing power of faith. At Faith Farm, I committed a year to deepening my relationship with Jesus and working through the 12 steps of Celebrate Recovery. I began to experience the transformation that comes with surrendering to God. I started to see not just my past mistakes but the abundant grace that God offered to me. For the past decade, I've had the privilege of being a part of Living Stones Ministry, a worship ministry where my heart for worship has flourished. Leading worship isn't just an act; it's a calling that resonates deep within me. I believe that worship has the power to draw people into the very presence of God, where healing and restoration await. As a leader of Celebrate Recovery for the last eleven years, I’ve had the honor of guiding others on their journeys of healing. Watching lives change before my eyes has been a miraculous privilege. I often remind those I serve that we are never beyond God’s reach; no matter how dark our circumstances may seem, Jesus is always ready to extend His hand. I am thrilled to be joining Recovery Church Beachside, a community where I believe God will continue to work wonders. I hold a deep conviction that God intends to transform not just individual lives but our entire city. With every testimony shared, we collectively pave the way for others to experience His grace.
