When you walk into the Foundation of Truth ministries, you know right away, “Something special is here.” The Presence of the Lord is in the atmosphere. ” The love of the saints draws you to listen, and the teaching gives you the desire to keep coming back to be there amongst the saints of God. You immediately gain a desire to learn, to grow; and to glorify God with a life that is pleasing to God. 

What is it that Foundation of Truth has….” Peace with God through the word, sound doctrine, and true worship according to the commandments of God.” We are highly encouraged to reside in God’s rest with his love wrapped around us. 

That was the feeling I felt attending my first bible study on 3/15/22. I will never forget that date. At that time, I was lacking guidance and instruction in God’s Word, support from the church and fellowship. 

The Foundation of Truth ministry is the place where the anointed Word of God and wisdom of God flows through our Pastor John Victorian. Pastor John and his wife, Sis. Janèt Victorian serves the Lord and cares for God’s people. Their commitment and teachings of what “Thus says the Lord” is a straight Word, no addition or subtraction. 

As we are often taught ….”because strait is the gate and narrow is the way, which leadeth into life and very few there be that find it”.  Matt 7:14 (KJV).

The leadership and members’ mission, is not to bring people to attend church for the sake of numbers…But to make disciples of Christ, you will learn of the strait gate and the standard that God expects from us, also how the Lord builds and strengthens us with the power of the Holy Ghost. 

In my time here, I have grown in Christ, my walk with God has been strengthened. The Fellowship I have experienced is beyond supportive and has been instrumental in my spiritual walk. I have had support through some tough times, and have been shown the importance of serving and loving what God loves and hating what God hates. I have learned the meaning of having brothers and sisters in the faith that supports one another and more important brothers and sisters that hold each other accountable out of love to run this race together until our work here is done.  When God draws you into Foundation Of Truth, you will experience the will of God. 

I was initially invited to the Foundation of Truth Ministries in October 2023 by a member. At the time I had not been to church since August 2023. The church I was attending had three different locations and it’s well known to the St. Louis area. I served there most Sundays but I never felt an ‘unction’ to join.

From the moment I arrived at Foundation of Truth Ministries I knew I belonged. There was an immediate kinship and I could discern the fruits of the spirit. A small, intimate gathering of like-minded brothers and sisters is exactly what I didn’t know I needed. Since joining I have been blessed by fellowship through Sunday services, Tuesday Bible studies, and teaching The Word of God, and monthly Women’s meeting and prayer🙏🏾

I was a senior in high school when my life changed forever, I ventured into the world with the fire of the Holy Ghost. I have been attending the Foundation of Truth Ministry for over two years. I enjoy going to this church because I receive teachings directly from the Bible. The clear messages from the church have helped me apply it to my life. During my time at the church, I experienced confirmation of being filled with the Holy Ghost, evidenced by speaking in tongues. Once I received the power of the Holy Ghost, I was empowered to uphold and boldly stand on God’s commandments. 

As the summer before college approached, I made it a goal in my heart to save at least one soul through the way of the Holy Spirit. When I arrived on campus, the Lord provided opportunities for me to minister to others and live a sanctified life before them. Months later, the person I ministered to was filled with God’s Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Eventually, the Lord established a Bible study group affiliated with the Foundation of Truth Ministry on my college campus. This group began with the powerful teachings that guided me from a dark place into the light of God’s truth. At North Carolina A&T State University, I am able to spread the gospel and continue sharing the transformative messages I receive at the Foundation of Truth Ministry. 

The Foundation of Truth Ministry has been nothing but a true blessing from God for me and my family. It all started in Mississippi, with a simple invite to a Bible study from First Lady, Jane’t Victorian, which at that time was taking place in a beauty salon. When I heard Pastor John Victorian speak that evening; and having grown up in the church as a little girl, I knew that what he was speaking, it was the truth, but it was something different. Pastor’s deliverance of the Bible study that night was sound and practical of how to walk in the faith. From that night it sparked a hunger in my heart to understand more of God’s word, of just how I should walk according to the Bible. The church was very patient and loving with me during that time.

Having grown up in the COGIC denomination, I now understand that I grew up with “man’s word” mixed with God’s word. Pastor Victorian challenged my understanding in love, by rightly dividing Matthews 28:19 and Acts 2:38; and with understanding the covenants and the commandments of Jesus as he speaks to the believer, I then moved quickly and was baptized again, now in Jesus’s name!     

 I soon became a faithful member of the church and our journey in Mississippi afforded us to teach, preach, and minister in two nursing homes, several churches, and we labored before those that were broken hearted. With the grace of God, we baptized many souls that desired to walk in God’s righteousness! Once the seasoned ended for Pastor Victorian and his family in Mississippi, the Lord moved the ministry back to St. Louis, Missouri and I thought that was the end of my work that God had for me with Foundation of Truth ministry. I then made plans to move to another state, but the Holy Ghost would not allow it. The Lord revealed to me that my family must move to St. Louis and continue to work in the ministry. I have been with Foundation of Truth Ministry for over ten years now, and I thank God for it. I saw and witnessed the power of God as it transformed my life and my children. I now understand true fellowship in the church, what it means to rightly divide God’s word and live according to God’s commandments, and equally important, what love really looks like in the church.  

February 11^th, 2018, I decided to go to church, as prior to that day the Lord was speaking to me telling me to come home as I was under the decree of death and everything around me was death and/or dying. On the morning of February 11^th, 2018, I did not know what to expect walking into the Foundation of Truth Ministries. Little did I know that a few months later I would be “Saved” and experience true salvation. Brought out of darkness into the marvelous light. As I walked in the building, I seen Pastor in the back of the building preaching with passion and might the living Word of God. As I walked in, the anointing instantly hit me, and the Word of God pierced my heart. I remember smiling as I walked in, and he smiled back. I knew it was different. I sat in the back, and I was listening to the Word with everything in me, even though I may not of understood fully at the time. My desire was to hear the truth, to  know the truth and I knew that day I was hearing the truth at “The Foundation of Truth Ministries”. I had about $260 in my wallet which I usually don’t carry cash but that day I wanted to give. I knew there was something different about this Holy Man of God. A wisdom not many if any possess. I begin to cry as the word pierced my heart. The Word of God that was coming out of Pastor’s mouth by way of the Holy Ghost cut my heart. I felt a need to support this small ministry. With that said I pulled $200 out of my wallet and earnestly gave to the Ministry as an Offering. Through the next couple of months Pastor began to sow into me and Shared the Word with me and every time it was piercing my heart. The Lord was preparing to put a measure of his spirit inside of me and bring me out of the mess I was in for the last few years.

May 12^th. 2018 at 7:15 am I woke up with the Lord on my mind. Out of nowhere I prayed and said, “Lord thank you for waking me today, I want to know you God”.  I didn’t know why but the Lord had me to pray, and it was like I couldn’t open my eyes if I wanted to. Suddenly, I felt a cold breeze on the top of my head, and I began to raise my arms up over my head and I started crying out to God and I began to speak in tongues, and it seemed like it was getting clearer and clearer the more I spoke in this unknown language. I couldn’t control it. The Lord had me in a place of prayer and worship. I fell to the ground and continued to worship and could not get up. I kept worshipping my savior and I could feel my body become weaker and weaker the more I worshipped him. I believe he was crucifying my mortal body. I then grabbed my phone off the vanity and I called Pastor and Sister Victorian. For around 45 minutes straight we worshipped together as I was being filled with the Holy Ghost. I was lying in the living room and the presence of the Lord was in the room like a wind sweeping through the room. It was an experience I will never forget.

Since then, the Holy Ghost has been working through me and has given me strong convictions that I never had prior to being saved. I now have the power for the first time to fight my flesh and weakness. I now realize that I don’t have to live in sin and weakness. I have the power of God’s might to come out and crucify my flesh, to let the Holy Ghost have free course through my body and lead my thoughts and decisions. Pastor is my Father in the Faith and has shared the deeper things of God with me. I love the Saints and God revealed that The Foundation Truth Ministries is my family. I try to show it and deep in my heart I love the Saints. I want to serve God and the Saints. The Lord spoke to my Heart and revealed to me that he is preparing me. Not sure what that is, but God’s Will will prevail, and I am going to fight a good fight  and stand firm until he reveals it. 

The Foundation of Truth Ministries preaches a more excellent way a cording to our covenant which is  built on better promises. I thank God for The Saints, Pastor and Sister Victorian and for The Foundation of Truth Ministries.

Foundation of Truth is exactly as its name suggests—a solid grounding in the Gospel. Pastor John teaches the Word of God with clarity and conviction, planting and nurturing seeds of faith in all who will listen.

The doctrine here is sound, and the members are genuinely loving. This church not only believes in the Gospel but also demonstrates the signs that follow true believers.

In the short time I have been attending, I have experienced tremendous spiritual growth. I was guided in seeking God for His Holy Ghost, and once filled, the Holy Ghost began teaching me scripture and bringing the Word to my remembrance, just as it is written.

I invite anyone seeking truth and spiritual growth to visit Foundation of Truth. You will find a welcoming community and a place where your faith can truly flourish.
