About Our Ministers

Reverend Andrea Brayboy

Psalm 107:1-2 states, “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out! Tell others he has redeemed you from your enemies.” This scripture embodies the testimony and ministry of Reverend Andrea Brayboy. Raised in Riverside,
California, she is a lifelong member of Amos Temple. Andrea received the call for ministry at the age of 19 but wandered away to do things her own way. Those poor decisions led to abuse, pain, depression, and financial burdens. She has since come full circle to experience the Salvation, Healing, Restoration, and Love of Jesus Christ.

Rev. Brayboy is passionate about sharing her gifts through intercessory prayer, leading worship and studying God’s Word. She loves the Lord and serves diligently and faithfully to empower people of all ages to live up to their full potential in Christ. Her prayer is that others may come to know that no matter how far you fall, Jesus is there to pick you back up!

Andrea is a graduate of California State University San Bernardino with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Administration. She is a current employee of the County of San Bernardino as a Program Specialist in the Human Services Department. Married to Christopher Brayboy, she is the mother of two sons, Terrell and Xavier and the daughter of George Taylor and Reverend Wanda Taylor.
