Profile: Bishop Fedlyn BeasonPosted by Administrator on 01/06/2011 16:15:55 Rev. Dr. Fedlyn A. Beason is at the peak of his ecclesiastical career. He is responsible to give administrative and pastoral oversight to one million members of the New Testament Church of God spread throughout 40 countries in Caribbean and Latin America.
For him it is a privilege and honour to serve as Caribbean New Field Director of the World Mission Board of the New Testament Church of God. His mandate from the world headquarters of his denomination is to "to develop and supervise the church's work in the Caribbean and Latin America." He explained that the church's work is not confined to strict congregational life, but he also oversees trade training centres, hospitals and medical clinics and educational institutions, including 11 Bible Schools.
Bishop Beason has had a full ecclesiastical life. He has been a spiritual adviser to Prime Ministers, and Governors-General, chairman of schools, and hospital boards, and many non-government organisations. He was also a successful pastor, with his last pastorate being the Waltham Park New Testament Church of God which had more than 4,000 members. He has few regrets in ministry. He said however that if he were to enter the pastorate all over, he would from day one, spend more time training people in evangelism and give greater attention to socio-economic ministries.

It came after eight years of service as the Island Overseer/Administrative Bishop of the local chapter of the denomination, which has 347 churches and 250,000 members.
