OUR HISTORY
In April 2020, Pastor Leroy had a dream. He saw God’s people as sheep lying in the street bleeding and left for dead. The Lord spoke to him saying my sheep need a Shepherd – will you go! From that point on, he and his wife answered the call to put their hands to the plow to lead and pastor the Relentless Global Church family.
Being passionate about spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ and meeting the needs of the lost and hurting; the Lord allowed Pastors Leroy and Betty to enter into a realm of preaching a message of hope to the city, state and world.
On Sunday, May 17, 2020, Relentless Global Church held its first service in Spring, Texas. What an honor and a privilege it was to see so many people in attendance in the middle of a pandemic. We all came together, prayed, talked about where we were and where God has called us to go. God’s word: ‘Move Forward!’

I am homegrown! Born in the 4th largest City in the Nation-Houston, Texas! Over the past 30 plus years my heart has led me to releasing GOOD TREASURE from the pockets of our inner-city communities. By the grace of God, I discovered my own performing arts abilities through Houston Parks and Recreation. Therefore, it has been my pleasure to lend a helping hand in grassroots efforts. My passion has been to give experiential instructions in creative dance expression to children and teens. I’ve been on the move painting the world with love and music! Dancing in the streets and creating art out of EVERYTHING! By God’s grace I am an instrument in helping our children to discover themselves. I inspire them to make a difference in the world. What an awesome privilege it is to continue effecting change in our communities through the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ! Indeed, it is a joy to connect as a covenant partner with Pastors Leroy and Betty Barnes. They truly have a desire to please the Master and love His children (His treasure). The world today is in such utter chaos. It is our pleasure and prayer to serve hurting humanity by responding as the Good Samaritan in rendering aid and pouring in the oil and wine. We aim to bring by the Grace of God Heaven upon the Earth! Our mandate is to preach, teach and to demonstrate with signs and wonders following. We are BELIEVERS!
