Rev. Jerry Solomon

Jerry Solomon was born on June 11, 1942. His birthplace was Colefax, Tennessee. Before his conversion, he worked in a meat market. At the age of 15, Jerry was baptized in Jesus' Name and received the baptism of the Holy Ghost.  At the age of 17 he began preaching this great apostolic message. Jerry's pastor was Brother J.H. Rogers, and his home church was the United Pentecostal Church located in Jacksonville, Texas.

On February 1, 1963 Jerry married Johnnie Ruth Brown. To this union was born three children. Brother Solomon spent 35 years in the ministry. He preached over 800 revivals, and pastored eight different churches...Jennings, Grayson, and Marthville, Louisiana, Highland, Orangefield, and Brady, Texas, McAlister, Oklahoma, and Hobbs, New Mexico.

After Brother Solomon became ill, he settled in Bridge City, Texas, and attended the United Pentecostal Church, pastored by Brother Johnny Harrell. On June 4, 1993, he went home to be with the Lord. Jerry will always be remembered as a mighty man of valor in the apostolic movement, and will go down in the chronicles of modern church history as a man who walked with God.  Audio and Video Recordings of Brother Jerry Solomon are available in our audio/video.
