Yinka Marcus, B.A

Counseling Director and Counselor

Yinka's passion is to support you in your personal life and relationships, with the mandate to assist you in drawing near to God; cleaning up the inside; and reconciliation.

The call that is upon Yinka’s life is the "ministry and message of reconciliation". This is accomplished by releasing truths from the Word of the Lord into the innermost being and your spirit man to cause inner healing and deliverance.

To fulfil her mandate, Yinka utilizes the gifts of the Holy Spirit in her, and the knowledge from her training in inner healing, deliverance, the prophetic, intercessory prayer, and counselling.

Her goal is to support you in your personal and relational challenges; assist you on the journey of inner healing; and equip you with appropriate tools for your wholeness.

Yinka has been working with people professionally for some years although she has had related counselling experiences for many years. Her ability to combine her gifting in the prophetic intercessory prayer with her learned counselling skills enhances the healing process.

Yinka is a certified facilitator of Elijah House School for Prayer Ministry.
