Pat Schatzline’s destiny was altered the day his parents, drug dealers on the streets of Detroit, turned to the Lord and later went into full-time ministry. At the age of seventeen, Pat took his first youth pastorate while still a senior in high school. While at Southeastern College in Lakeland, Florida, he met his future wife, Karen. They were married in September of 1990 and their son, Nathaniel, was born in November of 1991. In 2003, Pat, Karen, and Nate went to China to rescue their beautiful jewel, Abigail—adopting her as the newest member of their family. Currently one of America’s leading youth communicators, university speakers, and conference speakers, Pat travels globally seeing salvations, miracles, signs & wonders. Pat has ministered at many powerful places including the Brownsville Revival, Planet Shakers in Australia, and the Ignite Youth Conference in Singapore. With a schedule that stays full year-round, Pat & Karen have established a reputation for bringing purpose through the power of Christ. They minister in churches, schools, stadiums, outreaches, retreats, camps, leadership conferences, men’s and women’s conferences, and marriage retreats. |

Growing up in the Bronx, New York City, Tony was often surrounded by drugs and violence. After losing his father at the age of seven, he was raised by his single mother. As a teenager, he got involved with street activity. One day he was invited to an outreach where he heard a solid presentation of the gospel. It was that night that he realized his life needed something different that the streets were not giving him. Tony put his trust in the Lord that night. Tony received the call to ministry and began to preach at the age of sixteen. After graduating from Valley Forge Christian College, Tony and Elisha served as associate pastors heading out the student ministries department for four years outside Philadelphia. Tony has spoken overseas and is the featured speaker at conferences, camps, conventions and church revivals across the nation |
