Van Goosen Liberty Ministery
Vanessa coming from a Muslim background, had an encounter with JESUS whilst reading through a Joyce Meyer Magazine in prison. This brought with it a life changing experience, which led her to serve God right there and then, continually growing in HIM and being mandated by GOD with various assignments.
Obeying the instruction she received from GOD, Vanessa learned the Thai language to enable her to minister to the Thai inmates. Many came to Christ. A church was established in prison which grew to over 400. Even though they were persecuted, their bibles being taken away and the church being dismantled by prison authorities; they continued to stand strong in the LORD and remained faithful to HIM. GOD showed HIS intent and purpose; from the dismantled church, many other churches were established in numerous other regions.
It was in prison that Vanessa’s love and dedication toward GOD and HIS Word grew. Today Vanessa not only shares her testimony, but Ministers as well. She travels throughout the country ministering the gospel and reaches as far as Africa with her travels.
She Ministers in Prisons, at Women Conferences, Women Camps, Youth Events at Churches, Counsels and does Mother’s Day Events with her daughter Felicia, who as mentioned, was born in prison.
