Ephesians 3:20

Minister AJ received his early spiritual growth under the leadership and doctrine of the Church or God of Prophecy. He has been active in local youth ministry, sound ministry, men’s ministry, and outreach ministry since the age of 14. He has served as a Youth Pastor for eight years at The Hartford Family Worship Center. Under Pastor AJ's leadership, a strong youth care group/cell group fellowship, Friday night youth service, and mentoring program for career readiness to help young teens to achieve a higher education were grown and developed. For over ten years, AJ led the endeavor of spearheading several youth conferences and community outreach events that bought many youths into the fellowship and inspired youth and young adults to accept their call to ministry.

In October 2018, AJ Daley was appointed by Bishop Leroy Greenaway as the Northeast Region Youth and Transitions Ministry Director. AJ has inspired youth leaders to receive training for outreach and online ministry. AJ traveled throughout the northeast states to preach at youth revivals, youth and teen camps, youth crusades, and youth encounters. AJ also mentored young men throughout the region on a small care group basis. He also served on the Regional Evangelism team and is currently a board of the Generation Hope Foundation nonprofit organization for the Northeast region. AJ has a heart for young people and desires to see this generation receive the baton to be the leaders of today!
