Immanuel World Ministries
God’s Vision
About Our
Ministry
The vision God has given to Immanuel World Ministries for Africa and our entire Ministry, is to fulfill Jesus’ command that we take His ‘true’ gospel “to the ends of the earth.”
(Acts 1:8)
We also fulfill His commands in Matthew 24:45-47 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when He returns. Truly I tell you, He will put him in charge of all his possessions.”
Christ’s commands are our charge, and our duty, so long as breath remains within our bodies.
Let us agree to stand together in His service, as our great commission, enduring unto the end, Saints. We, as co-laborers, must commit to the highest level of integrity and transparency, praying for one another, and for this ministry, that when the end comes, we leave nothing behind, having accomplished all of our Father’s will and purposes.
All for His glory, in His Son’s name, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, leading us to the finish line, and to eternal victory!
IWM, and the few who serve with us, are privileged to serve and minister to hundreds of thousands of precious Saints throughout the World, directly in 68 Nations, all for the purpose of helping the Saints of God to grow in spiritual maturity, preparing their lives for eternity.
In His love,
Pastor David Hall

Ordained Pastor (2004), founded IWM (7/17/2011)
I made a covenant with God to become his disciple, committing to present only the true gospel of Christ, and rejecting all false teachings, and compromise with the world.
I also committed to fulfilling Matthew 24:45-47, with love, conviction, and laser focus on fulfilling His will, in obedience.
Then, God did the most astonishing thing by bringing 7 of the most anointed men and women into my life. Together, Immanuel World Ministries was born, and began to flourish.

My name is Todd Andrew Farley, and I “go by” my middle name, which is Andrew. That said, the only name that TRULY matters is Jesus! I was born in Indianapolis, Indiana (USA) and currently I’m in New Zealand.
He left the 99 to come and get me out of the lukewarm church (See Rev. 3) in late 2012, and He delivered me from many strongholds, and powerfully “flipped me right side up!”(1 Corinthians 1:27)
In 2013 the “Great Physician” Himself, came to give me a spiritual heart transplant (Ezekiel 36:26) in a personal encounter that suddenly happened when I was seeking Him very diligently! It has been a wonderful, but sometimes difficult, great adventure ever since!
I am striving to go through the narrow gate & way, and not the broad path- that is leading many to destruction. (Matthew 7:13-14)
I’m an ordained minister (2017 & 2025) and a prophetic messenger on His behalf; ministering healing, deliverance, edification, and counseling- to members in the body of Christ, and those called to be the Bride of Christ.
I serve in the “nameless/love brigade” (2 Tim. 2:3); the Lion of Judah is my Commander In-Chief, and my mission is to glorify God in my testimony, and to yield good fruit. I seek to be sensitive and obedient to His will, while in the process of setting captives free, and or sharing the good news of the everlasting gospel!

Adri van der Wath

Born in 1976, Klerksdorp, South Africa, I was born into a believing, Holy Spirit Pentecostal family. My path with the Lord began in 1981, when I was 5. I was born again at the age of 12. I had to go through an excruciating season over years in the Wilderness, before the Lord brought us to the Promised Land, where my awakening began. In the promised land we still face the giants, to become His Overcoming, Worshipping, Warrior Bride.
I was a passionate Lodge/Hotel Manager, and Relocation Specialist with my favorite part as a wedding and conference planner Manager & executing them- this was prophetic as the Lord literally had me training in the physical for what He would me have do now in His Kingdom as one of my Kingdom duties for Him. But my biggest position & honoured role is that of being our precious boy's special education home teacher, mom, carer and best friend.
I am a single mother of our very precious and gifted little special needs boy who loves the Lord. A lover and Follower of Yeshua,
our Lord Jesus Christ. I started following IWM and met our beloved Pastor David in 2020 and then joined the team soon after by God's appointment and Divine Timing. I am fully committed to preparing the Bride and myself, just as Queen Esther prepared herself & helped the other women to meet their King - serving the Body with the special gifts the Lord gifted me with all for His glory.
I am passionately ministering Luke 4:18 to the broken hearted, and to reveal the Heart of our Father to His children, and helping them to bring their hearts back to Him as our Father. I am fully commited, obedient, love and fear the Lord with all of my being. Always praying to be found worthy to escape all things that will come upon the earth soon and striving with the Holy Spirit's help for our Wedding garments to be without stain, spot or wrinkle.
I am watching as a Gatekeeper & Watchwoman on the wall worshipping with a weapon in hand, watching for His return and our blessed Hope at His appointed time, but labouring in the harvest field, side by side with our family members in Christ, until He does.

Born 1938 in Dayton Ohio. Moved to New York in 1947.
At age 17 I entered nurse training. I met Christian students and we would meet once a week for prayer and Bible study. Graduate from Alfred University with a BS in nursing. After 40 years of nursing, I have been a hospice volunteer and a spiritual care worker in a small hospital. Through God's abundant blessings I was able to do devotions and prayers with my clients while holding their hands and letting them know that Jesus loves them.
I joined IWM in 2012.
Through all my life it has been Jesus walking with me and sometimes carrying me. He has never left me nor forsaken me. I will continue to do His will and looking forward to seeing His face in the near future.
