The Senior pastor

Pastor Gerald Hugo serves as the president of Gerald Hugo Ministries and the founder of Grace Christian Network. He is also the senior Pastor and founder of Grace Tabernacle Church which is a multiracial church in Mamelodi, Pretoria east with branches in two other provinces in South Africa. 

Pastor Hugo delivers a powerful message of Healing and Deliverance with signs following. People from all walks of life are traveling on a weekly basis some as far as 200 km to come and listen to him preaching the Grace of God without compromise. Pastor Hugo had various one on one encounters with God and was also raised from the dead on 16 December 1992. When asked if he thinks these spiritual encounters holds any significance in the success of his ministry, he says "i am what i am only by the grace of God. He can use any vessel that avail themselves." 

God is not looking for the strong the swift or the learned, but he is looking for a willing heart. Are you willing? It is not our wonderful experiences and performances that make us able ministers of God, but it is our faith that moves God. All things are possible, Only Believe!

Pastor Hugo is married to the most beautiful woman in the world (his world) with two sons Javen (meaning: the Blessing of God) and Yanez (meaning: the Favor of God).  

Ministry

This ministry is all about the fullness of Christ. I personally believe that each worker in the office of Christ should demonstrate the fullness of Christ in their ministry. Its no good giving people a good sermon Sunday after Sunday and sending the sick home just as they came with a little bit of motivation to be contend with their sickness. Jesus is our model. He preached the signs following gospel wherever he went, even in his darkest hour in the garden of Gethsemane. 

Mat 11:5  the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

This ministry is renowned for the signs following gospel.

 The Church

Grace Tabernacle is a vibrant New Testament Church where people from all walks of life meet to share their common Faith and see the power of the Holy Ghost move mightily among them. It is a place where the hand of God change the lives of people through faith in Gods Word. The church is a place where people can serve God with their talents and receive instruction to attain the everlasting success that is found in Christ Jesus.

We are a colourful family and our love knows no boundaries. Come as a visitor and leave as part of the family.

Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, love extravagantly. And the best of the three is love. (1Cor 131:13b MSG)

 Vision/Mission in short

Our vision is to manifest the kingdom of God not just by preaching the Kingdom message but by healing the sick, revealing the mystery of Godliness, Dominating the earth financially, socially, spiritually and physically.   Mat 12:28  If it is by the Spirit of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.
