Pastor Danny and his wife Jean are champions of the ministry. Their dedication to serving the local church to the development of healthy leaders, to empowering the individual members within the church, and to reaching the lost, is a blessing. Being church planters and lead pastors for 30+ years they understand the demands of the ministry and the toll it takes on ministers and their families. Their experiences have given them tremendous wisdom and insight, which they draw on to speak into the lives of other leaders. Their anointing and sensitivity to the leading of the Holy Spirit in preaching , teaching and ministering is a breath of fresh air, and yet it will challenge and inspire you to become the champion God has called you to be.

Pastors Danny and Jean Marie have been such a blessing to us in their ministry here in the UK, bringing fresh revitalizing water of the Word to every department in the church through the series of meetings they conducted. Testimonies of hearts touched, lives changed and souls won over the three days they were with us have so encouraged and further equipped us all for the work of the Lord in our towns. Blessed, strengthened and encouraged is how we have been left by their ministry here. God’s Strength is what they carry, disseminated by the Holy Spirit’s anointing upon them which is creating a deeper hunger and thirst for the things of God in the whole congregation. I thank God for their faithfulness and humility which have been so inspiring.

Pastor Danny has been coming to our church for the past few years to preach and teach. His wisdom brings such insight every time he comes. We recently had him for a Holy Spirit Encounter weekend and his teaching was phenomenal! We had several receive the baptism. Our favorite thing about Pastor Danny is that he is led by the Holy Spirit and is willing to do what He tells him to do. His obedience to Holy Spirit is evident in the way he flows. If you are thinking about having him come….you should! Him and his wife are a blessing and we are honored to have him come share with us!

We have been so blessed to have been able to develop a relationship with Pastor Danny and Jean Marie. In addition to being a blessing to our congregation by the encouraging Word he preached, Michelle and I were able to spend a few days with them. The wisdom, advice and encouragement they gave us during this time was invaluable. We look forward to the day they are able to visit again. If you have the opportunity to have them visit: do not pass it up!

Danny is a dear friend, insightful teacher and father figure in the faith. His delivery is passionate, purposeful and very down to earth, with a good dose of humour. He has been ministering at CLC for over a decade. Recently Danny ministered with us over the weekend. The Holy Spirit conference was packed and illuminating with evidence of God’s power. On the Sunday Danny spoke about faith and healing. Many responded and gave testimony.

What a wonderful blessing and time of worship around the Word of God we had with Pastor Danny. He didn’t only minister to us at Fountain of Life Ministries but brought a dynamic shift to our next season. A fresh Fire and Wind was released upon God’s people to move forward in our purpose and destiny. We honor you Pastors Danny and Jean for the Kingdom work and this new assignment God has birthed you into. “Now wherever you go, make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit. And teach them to faithfully follow all that I have commanded them.”

We had the privilege of having Pastor Danny Thornton and his beautiful wife Jean attend our church while they wintered in Florida. While they were here, we got to spend valuable time with them. They both were a personal encouragement to us and our ministry. They gave us honest input regarding our ministry and our church. While attending, we had Danny minister by sharing the Word with our congregation. His personal testimony of God’s grace and restoration touched everyone in attendance. They are authentic and loving people and that showed clearly in their lives. Our church was blessed to have them minister and we look forward to having them minister with us again.
