Our Bishop

Bishop Gary ClowersBishop Gary Clowers
Born in the State of Arkansas, Bishop Gary Clowers heard the voice of God at the tender age of 4 or 5 years old say to him, "What would you say if I told you I wanted you to preach?" And the voice of innocence answered, "I would say, "okay", I will preach."

Being raised in a Pentecostal church, the journey began. Bishop Clowers would experience times as a young child of an anointing to deliver the Word and would go out in his back yard and preach to the trees.  Even then, the enemy tried to snuff out the flame when the doctors declared a disease was going to take his young life.  "But God!!! You said you wanted me to preach and i haven't done that yet, " declared the young Gary Clowers, "I WILL LIVE AND NOT DIE!!!"  Yes, God had a plan, and the plan was to raise him up FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS!


God has given to this man a "present truth" message that has been birthed in his spirit.  Seeking the face of God and through much chaos and inner turmoil, as God began to bring revelation and order to his life.

Bishop Gary and Pastor Lydia are founders and senor pastors of Family Worship Center of Fremont Ohio since 1994. He and his wife Lydia have been marreid for over 40 years and have two sons, Gar Jr. and Daniel Paul, an awesome daughter-in-law and two wonderful grandsons. They have a congregation of people who desire God's best for their lives and are working toward covenant relationship with each other. God has given them a staff of people who support them and lift up their arms. Together they are building a ministry of people to come and find Jesus as their personal savior, friend, a restorer of broken hearts, a healer of the sick, and a place of refuge for the displaced.

In 2000, the Apostolic calling birthed within Bishop Clowers and presently has him overseeing both nationally and internationally over fifty churches and their pastors who are Sons in the faith affiliated with the FWCMI. He brings a strong prophetic impartation of the Word along with a  lifestyle character of integrity and transparency to the church.

Bishop Gary Clowers is ordained as a Bishop through Covenant Fellowship of Churches and Ministries International, Inc. and is also a part of The International Communion of Charismatic Churches in Cedartown, Georgia. He also serves on the College of Bishops of The Fellowship of Vineyard Harvester Churches.

Bishop Clowers has also authored a book entitled For Our Sakes which can be ordered by contacting us or calling his office at 419-334-8353.
