OUR MISSION
Meet Pastors Derrick and Octavia Roberts
Welcome to Open Wings Ministries!
Pastors Derrick and Octavia Roberts are natives of Atlanta, Georgia and have been active members of World Changers Church International since 2003.
After a difficult time in their lives, the Roberts turned to the church for guidance and support.
As they grew in their faith, they decided to open their home to the community for Bible study, which became known as Tuesday Church.
One night while in church, Pastor Derrick heard the voice of the Lord telling him to start a church. To his surprise, his wife Octavia had already received the same message from the Lord.
They took this as confirmation and founded Open Wings Ministries in 2006. The name symbolizes the never-failing, unconditional love of God, represented by outstretched arms.
The goal of Open Wings Ministries is to positively impact the world through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
They have hosted conference calls for people worldwide to come together and receive prayer, encouragement, and the Word of God. In 2011, Open Wings Ministries was inducted into the CDMA Creflo Dollar Ministerial Association.
More recently, the Roberts have joined forces with Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and the Atlanta Police Department in the "We Are Atlanta" movement, aimed at creating positive change in the city.
Pastor Derrick and Octavia believe that God uses their story and appearance to teach the uncompromising Word of God.
They are committed to demonstrating the love of God through their lifestyle and are dedicated to spreading the gospel to all who will listen.
They have traveled to numerous cities throughout the United States, sharing the message of hope and salvation with tattoos and hats flipped towards the back and a message that resonates with people of all ages.
