Delphine. V. Gardner is a native of Spotsylvania,
Virginia and is the proud daughter of George and
the late Lillian Nelson. She is the 8th of 9 children.
From her early childhood it was apparent that
God hand his hand on her life. She was
physically revived from a near drowning at the
tender age of 12.Evangelist Gardner gave her
heart to the Lord Jesus Christ and was radically
filled with the Holy Ghost in June 1987 during the
benediction of a Sunday morning worship service
at Holy Church of God in Louisa, Virginia.
From the earlier stages of her rebirth,
it was apparent that God had given her an extraordinary
yearning to reach the lost. In December 1992, she was licensed an Evangelist and has served as an Associate Pastor, Youth leader, Sunday School Teacher, Women’s Ministry Director, Praise & Worship Leader and Intercessor for the Body of Christ. She also has been a warrior on the forward edge of the spiritual warfare battlefield. Her strong prayer life has resulted in many souls being delivered, set free, and saved.
Evangelist Gardner is a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors, and a student at Rhema Bible College. Her entrepreneurial and courageous spirit resulted in the founding of Noah’s Ark Christian Academy located on the beautiful island of Okinawa. Although business in nature, God has used the center as a “spiritual net” in the community for reaching the lost. This is directly in line with her unquenchable thirst and deep yearning to see souls saved. For nearly two decades, she has diligently worked along side her husband to build the Kingdom of God and equip God’s people to do the work of the ministry.
Evangelist Gardner is the lovely wife of Bishop C.B. Gardner, Sr. and proud parent of 4 children, Sherika of Omaha, Nebraska, Latoria, Calvin Jr., and Timothy (surname Peter). Having obtained the help of God she continues unto this day!
