Evangelist Dea Warford

An evangelistic ministry helping equip God's people to minister
more effectively to the lost in their community.

Dea met his wife, Kathy in Upland, California where he was the youth leader. It was love at first sight and they began dating immediately. After a 20 month courtship, they were married in 1971.

A beautiful, vivacious woman who often travels with Dea in his ministry journeys, Kathy has ministered to women's groups, taught Sunday school classes, ministered in Dea's place when he was sick, and has a counseling, prophetic and deliverance ministry. The Lord speaks to her in visions and dreams as well.

Their first-born, Carissa, is a Life Pacific College graduate (Summa Cum Laude), and is married to Andrew Hawksworth, a Life Pacific College student Carissa met while in school. He is on staff at Florence Avenue Foursquare Church in Santa Fe Springs, Calif. Carissa is also employed there as the "Service Coordinator" for their children's ministry.
