About Tedd and Rose Fish |
I was blessed to be born into a Christian family and came to know the Lord in my early years. God opened the door for me to have a Christian education through high school followed by 5 years of training for the ministry. I was ordained as a young man and have had the opportunity to minister in many ways. The Lord blessed me with a godly wife and wonderful daughter. Through the years we served in Christian camping, pastoring, administrating a Christian school, ministering in music, and speaking throughout the US and Canada, along with several short-term mission trips. We developed an international marketing business to help support our ministry and saw many people come to Christ in the business world. My wife, Naomi, fought a 3-year battle with cancer and went home to be with the Lord in 2007. My daughter and I are continuing in both business and ministry outreaches. The Lord in His grace has given me a new partner in ministry, my wife, Rose. There was a real void in my life after Naomi passed away. We had always functioned as a "Team" and going it alone was very hard. I asked the Lord to bring me a new "helpmate" that could share my life and my ministry if that was in His plan. Over the next 8 years I was blessed to develop a few wonderful friendships with godly women who touched my life in many ways and whose friendships will always be a blessing. Through these friendships God was preparing to answer my prayers as only He can. In the spring of 2015 I met a former high school classmate at one of my concerts. Rose Berube was a dear friend of ours back in our high school days. I had not seen Rose since 1961 and God was bringing her back into my life. We like to call it a true "God Thing". Rose was asking the Lord for a ministry and God gave her, not only a ministry, but a minister to go with it. After a brief courtship and much counseling and prayer, we both knew that we were to be that "Team" again and serve the Lord together. God blended our hearts, our families, and our ministry, and we were married August 29, 2015. Our love for the Lord and for each other grows every day and we have committed our days together to Love God and Love People through sharing the love of Jesus. In 2009, God opened the door for the Celebrate Hope Concert Ministry. As He continues to lead, we are both blessed to share the message of Hope in music and spoken word. Our ministry is a pleasant blend of songs from the past and the present. We share the message of hope through music, humor, and true life stories. Our purpose is to encourage people and challenge them to a stronger commitment to the Lord. Our calling in life is to Love God and Love People. We truly serve an awesome God! Psalms 145:5 "Happy is He whose HOPE is in the Lord." . |
Statement of Faith |
Scripture
We believe the Bible is God’s authoritative word, without error in the original manuscripts. God We believe there is One God in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, co-existent, co-equal, co-eternal. Christ We believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully divine and fully human. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross as the substitutionary atonement for the sin of mankind, and rose again from the dead on the third day. Human Nature / Holy Spirit We believe that man was created, male and female, in the image of God but fell into sin and death through the sin of Adam, and that regeneration by the Holy Spirit is the only way to be saved from this fallen condition. Salvation We believe that justification by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone is the only basis for a right relationship with God and for the gift of eternal life. The Future of Mankind We believe that those who have received salvation will go to heaven, and those who reject Christ will be separated from God forever. The Future of Christ We believe that the resurrected Christ will return visibly and personally to reign as King of kings and Lord of lords. |
