Apostle Adrienne & Pastor Rufus Castle

Apostle Adrienne Castle is the wife of Rufus Anthony Castle and the daughter of Mr. Jerome Minor and the late Mrs. Julia Ann Gill Minor. She is an administrator by profession and an entrepreneur.  Adrienne has always been a visionary starting ventures such as a gospel music store, The Prayze Connection, a women’s fellowship, Beauty 4Ashes Fellowship, LLC and her ministry, Beyond The Ashes Ministry, Inc. 

Adrienne’s ministry background began in 2002 when she heard the call of God on her life to seek out a mentor in the ministry of worship. She began studying under Elder Ronna Matthews of Malachi 3:1 Ministries, Baltimore Maryland. Under the tutelage of Elder Matthews, Adrienne completed the study of Worship from the Beginning and received her certificate of completion from the Worship and Praise Institute. After which, Tehillah Praise & Worship was formed. Adrienne then held monthly gatherings in her home as she taught about the biblical dynamics of Praise & Worship and the importance of the presence of God.

Although she was fulfilled with serving in the area of worship, God had a greater plan in mind and thus called Adrienne to the ministry of preaching the Word of God. 

September 8, 2013, Adrienne was licensed and ordained into ministry and placed into the body as a Teacher by Apostle Rose Summers, New Beginning Global Ministries, York, SC. She also served faithfully as the church Administrator and armor barrier to Apostle Rose Summers. It was under her leadership that she learned the foundation of Apostolic ministry and received an impartation for Prophetic Worship. 

Adrienne has also successfully completed the School of Warrior, Deliverance, Prophets, Prayer and Ministry through the TLC Apostolic College, Charlotte, NC where she received her Certificate of Graduation from each school. In 2016 the Lord planted her in Kingdom Builders International Movement for Christ, Inc. where she served faithfully in the areas of Worship and Children’s ministry. In tandem, she furthered her Apostolic training and prophetic activation under the development of Apostle G. Marie Carroll.

Adrienne’s mandate to the Body of Christ is to teach, train and raise up teams to lead the people of God into his presence boldly and reverently. She has a passion for the hurting and walks in a dimension of deliverance and healing. Adrienne’s life scripture is Isaiah 61:1-3 and John 15:16. 

Adrienne is the mother of one son, Jordon Demarius Minor, one daughter, Shonill Treme Castle and seven beautiful granddaughters: Jaeden, Moriah, Maliyah, Alana, Makhiyah, JaKenzie and Zacorra.
