About Senior Pastor Toronta L. Branch-Neely
Toronta Lashon Branch- Neely’s life is a testament to the power of faith and perseverance. Born to the Late James and Allie Branch of Newsoms, Virginia, she is the youngest of nineteen children. Raised in a strong faith-based household, Toronta accepted Christ at fifteen and has since dedicated her life to serving God and her community. With over thirty years in ministry, Toronta’s passion for discipleship has only grown stronger. She is a devoted wife to Dr. Frank Neely, a compassionate leader, and a powerful preacher, using her experiences to teach, lead, and inspire others. Together they have a total of eight children. Toronta served for nearly nine years with the International Congress of Leaders Apostolic and Pastoral Alliance under the leadership of Chief Apostle A. Pittman, Sr., where she was licensed as a Minister. In 2017, she was ordained as an Evangelist by New Covenant Life Christian Ministry. She currently serves within a fellowship of churches dedicated to collaborative ministry and spiritual growth, including Transform and Deliver Fellowship Ministries under Chief Apostle Outlaw and Jehovah Shaamah City of Praise Ministries under Chief Apostle Hence. Through The Wall Ministry, Toronta is living her mission to usher souls to Christ and empower her community through prayer and service. Her heart’s posture remains, ‘Where you lead me, I will follow,’ a declaration of her deep commitment to live for Christ. In 2020, during a profound moment of prayer and intercession for a family member, Toronta received a divine calling. She was inspired to establish a group called Watchmen on the Wall, built on the empowering principle of 'We don't tear you down, we build you back up.' This ministry is dedicated to praying and interceding for families and loved ones in need of deliverance and healing, and it evolved into The Wall Ministry a year later. With a passion for community outreach and support, The Wall Ministry offers a range of services, including drive-thru prayers, to provide healing, deliverance, and empowerment to those in need. In a heartening display of community spirit, the Wall Ministry has donated two vehicles to families who need them most. Her most cherished scripture is: “For I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.” Exodus 9:16
