George Warren
Manigault, II, was born on
December 11, 1950 to George
and Elizabeth Manigault, in
Chelsea, MA.
He along with his three
sisters, and three brothers
were raised in Roxbury and
Dorchester most of their lives
with the exception of a brief
stint in South Carolina, and
California.
Because of his
father’s military background
the family moved around a lot.
As a result, Warren learned to
be very disciplined at an
early age.
At the age of
17, through the preaching and
teaching of the word through
Pastor E. M.
Kelly, Warren
decided that he needed a
change in his life and
accepted the Lord as his
personal savior at the Way of
The Cross Holy Church in
Dorchester, MA.
While serving
at The Way of The Cross
Church, Warren met the woman
he would spend the rest of his
life with (Catherine A.
McCray)!
On January 3 1970, he
married the love of his life.
From this union came
two children George Warren III
(Julie), Shekinah Aleah, and
three grandchildren Josiah
Warren, and Adriannah Marie,
and Angelique.
He is a devoted
husband, father and
grandfather, who tries to
spend as much time as possible
with his family.
In the winter
of 1974 the now Deacon
Manigault was led to move his
family’s church affiliation
to The Holy Tabernacle Church
of God In Christ Apostolic,
Inc., under the leadership of
the late Bishop Dr. Joe L.
Smith.
Under Bishop Smith's
leadership Warren’s ministry
was nurtured and as a result
flourished and matured.
He was called to the
ministry in 1980, and was
later ordained to the office
of Elder on January 19, 1982
After
serving faithfully as
Elder, Musician, and Teacher
for about 20 years. Elder
Manigault was elevated to the
office of Pastor in September
of 1994 by the late Bishop Dr.
Joe L. Smith. On the
first Sunday in October of
1994, Elder Manigault along
with his wife, children and 8
members from the Holy
Tabernacle's Dorchester
congregation, founded
the Holy Tabernacle Church of
God In Christ Brockton.
They worshipped as a
congregation for the first
time at the Brockton Holiday
Inn.
After the
passing of Bishop Smith, the
Lord led Pastor Manigault to
contact several former Holy
Tabernacle ministers who were
now pastors of their own
churches. Out of these
discussions and meetings grew
an agreement to form a new
church fellowship. This
fellowship became know as
Judah Ministries,
International. (JMI)
JMI was formed to
"Empower believers thru
Praise & Worship".
This ministry is designed to
foster unity in the body of
Christ and share ideas, and
resources in service to God
and mankind. There are
currently twenty churches that
make up the Judah Ministries,
International family.
In July of
2002 Pastor Manigault was
elevated to the office of
Bishop in Judah Ministries,
International. He
currently serves as the
Presiding Prelate for this God
ordained ministry.
Bishop
Manigault loves the Lord and
is zealous to bring the
reverent and relevant message
of the Gospel to all that will
hear.
He strives to live out
God’s mandate to “go into
all the earth to preach and
teach, and make disciples.”
He endeavors to serve
God with a Spirit of
Praise, a Unity
of Purpose, and an Unselfish
Love.
Bishop
Manigault works to build a
ministry that meets the needs
of the “whole” man.
It is his firm goal to
see that every resource of the
church is used to minister in
three key areas of life, Church,
Family, and Community!
