Pastor Michele Humphrey
Pastor Michele Humphrey is the pastor of Imani United Church of Christ located in Euclid, Ohio. In just four years, God has expanded the ministry of Imani Church which has resulted in the need of adding a 3rd Sunday morning Service and plans for future expansion to house the growing congregation!
Pastor Humphrey is known for ministering on tough topics such as domestic violence, sexual perversion, abusive power in leadership, and empowering messages that challenge the listener to move beyond mediocrity and complaceny.
After receiving a call from God to “clean them up,” Pastor Humphrey seeks to minister to “real” needs, “real” issues, and “real” problems that plague the lives of so many. She has a heart for the lost, compassion for the hurting, and faith that God can touch, heal and transform any life.
Pastor Humphrey is the founder of the L.E.A.H. (love, encouragement, acceptance, hope) Ministry which is a ministry geared to developing the whole woman. Pastor Humphrey has served as the Director of the Imani Scholars Preschool and Daycare Center and is a founding member of the Women Clergy Association of Greater Cleveland. Her ministry also included Destiny Radio, a radio ministry of healing and empowerment.
Pastor Humphrey earned a Master of Arts degree in 2005 from Ashland Theological Seminary in Christian Ministry and a Diploma of Theology in Black Church Studies in 2001 from the McCreary Center for African American Religious Studies.
Pastor Humphrey is married to Deacon Sylvester Humphrey. She is the proud mother of two adult children, Ashley and Alayna, and is the proud grandmother of Amara Lynn.
The scripture that Pastor Humphrey lives by is Romans 8:31, “If God be for us, who can be against us?”
