Dale and Terri Climie

Dale and Terri were married on June 5th, 1971 (that's 37 years of marriage). They have two children: Dale Timothy, age 34 and Laura Elizabeth, age 31. They have seven grandchildren. Together, they have started over 40 churches in the United States and around the world.

Terri graduated from the Nursing Acadamy in Columbus, Ohio in September of 1970 and earned her B.A. in Christian Education from Bethel Baptist College in 1975. For the past 11 years she has worked for Dr. Ron Bruscia of the Family Foot Center in Katy, Texas where she is now the office manager. Terri has ministered faithfully in the church for over 35 years in the positions of Youth Pastor, Women's Ministries Director and Associate Pastor. As a prophetess, she is well know for her appearances on TBN and at Women's conferences.

Dale attended the University of Michigan, Grand Rapids School of the Bible and Music, Grand Rapids Baptist College, and then Bethel Baptist College and Seminary where he recieved his Ph.D. in 1978. He also recieved his Doctor of Sacred Theology degree from Saint James University in 2006. In 2007, the Board of Regents of Saint James University, appointed Dr. Climie as Academic Dean. Having been raised in both the Roman Catholic and the Lutheran Church, Dr. Climie recognized early-on that salvation wasn't found in the church, but in one's personal relationship with Christ.

Dr. Climie was ordained through the Grace Fellowship in 1973 and also holds credentials with Set Free Ministries, International, the Conservative Anglican Church of North America and as an Independent Baptist. In 1987, Dale coined the phrase: "transcending denominationalism" or "transdenominational" to describe the ministry to which God had appointed him. As an Ephesians 4:11 Apostle, Dr. Climie's life has been dedicated to tearing-down the walls of denominationalism to bring unity to the Body of Christ.
