About Us
Chief Apostle Raymond Grant and Apostle Rosemary Grant are the Pastors of Keep Up the Faith Don’t Give Up the Hope Five Fold Internationally Ministry in Baton Rouge, LA — a Christian ministry under the covering of Chief Prelate Apostle Talisa Thomas-Hall and FREE SPIRIT Restoration Ministries. After careful examination, both, Chief Apostle Raymond and Apostle Rosemary Grant were ordained and consecrated as apostles and ordained as elders and pastors under FREE SPIRIT Restoration Ministries on October 31, 2010.
Born on November 6, 1963 in New Orleans, LA, Chief Apostle Raymond Grant received Christ as his savior and Lord in February 1990. He was baptized in Jesus Name as a child at age five but was re- baptized when he rededicated his life to Christ at age 28 by Pastor Frank Bailey of Victory Outreach Church in Metairie, LA. Chief Apostle Grant testifies of his life in the streets and using his path to recovery and restoration to minister to those bound by addictions and the impact upon one’s life.
Through participating in the Broadview Mission rehabilitation program for drug abuse in 1999, he was delivered and set free from all bondage including drugs, alcohol and homelessness. His own path to Christianity and living a Christ-centered life has imbedded him with compassion to help the recovering, homeless, and those in transition or re-entering society from the judicial system. In February 13, 2003 Chief Apostle Raymond was licensed as a Minister of God at Household of Faith Family Worship Church.
Apostle Rosemary Grant was born on October 22, 1972 in New Orleans, LA. Apostle Rosemary was raised in the church and received Christ at the early age of six years old and was baptized in Jesus’ name in 1998 by the presiding pastor of Apostolic Outreach Church in New Orleans, LA. Through 1997 — 1999 she was an official Students With a Mission (SWAM) at Southern University in New Orleans. She later completed discipleship and evangelism through Apostolic Outreach Church.
The Apostles sealed their relationship in holy matrimony on March 5, 2000 at Household of Family Worship Church. In this ministry they began their Christian walk together through supporting the ministry’s Drug Prevention Programs, serving on the 24 hour ministry support program, and through general service to the house of God. On October 25, 2003 the Apostles launched the vision for Keep Up the Faith Don’t Give Up the Hope Five Fold Internationally Ministry — first with an online ministry and later establishing the ministry in Baton Rouge in 2006. As survivors of Hurricane Katrina, they have truly learned how to continue in faith and not waiver in hope. Together they have raised a family and a ministry against catastrophic odds with the grace of God.
