“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”
– Ephesians 3:20, church motto
…grow with Rebirth!
Pastor Jeff founded Rebirth Ministries, Inc. to magnify the name of Jesus Christ by adding to the church, both digitally and in person. We seek to encourage believers in the love of God.
We teach and pray with individuals and their families for healing and deliverance.
We visit the sick and shut in, and minister to followers in times of need.
Our campaign for people in need collected and delivered more than 1,000 boxes of food, hygiene products and clothing for homeless shelters during the pandemic.
Your generosity helped purchase meals for hundreds of individuals in need in 2024 as well as gift baskets. Thank you for continuing to tithe and donate!
.
During our early years (2008), the mission and vision included working to purchase a facility and in 2011, we did!
We refurbish and upkeep our beautiful facilities constantly to maintain a valuable presence in the Rochester community with our Worship Center at 221 Maltby St.
Pastor Jeff, Founder & Senior Pastor
As the teaching Pastor and Founder, Pastor Jeff has a passion for carefully unpacking the truths of Scripture. Members and visitors often tell him he’s “hilarious.” Yet with every bit of humor, he unveils key Bible principles and wisdom. He is a preacher’s kid and an exceptional gospel drummer. Jeff worked as a Deacon, Music Minister and Youth Leader in his parents’ ministry. He became a licensed minister in 1996, an ordained Elder in 1998 and, in 2008, he founded Rebirth Ministries, Inc. He still enjoys kicking the set at home and with his son during Sunday Worship.
He also plays the organ and keyboards and taught his kids to play. He’s a thinker, very prophetic about the future. He’s also a staunch believer in parents paying attention to what’s happening in the family, and valuing their children’s gifts and talents. He respects the challenges today’s youth face and teaches the Holy Bible in a fun way that appeals to different ages, and generations. He has been honored for his contributions to worldwide missions and for his work in the city. In 2016, the City of Rochester declared September 25th as Pastor Jeffery L. Benjamin Sr. Day!
Asst. Pastor Cynthia, First Lady & Trustee
Cynthia’s main charge is to serve in all areas of the ministry and assist in leading, defining and carrying out the mission and vision of the church. She’s an anointed, innovative voice and a key organizer and planner of events and church work, often establishing new groups, fundraisers and programs. Her leadership with a youth group and women’s programming helped raise funds to purchase, air condition and remodel the church facilities. Members and visitors share feedback about her friendly, welcoming spirit. Cynthia works prayerfully with the Pastor to appoint Officers and Workers. She is constantly amazed at the wonders of God, and how suddenly amazing things happen. She was a career journalist for the Democrat and Chronicle and was a corporate senior director for USA Today. She is a U.S. Army Reserves veteran and a graduate of the University of Arkansas who became a licensed evangelist missionary in 1998.
Leadership Team
Our leadership team consists of Trustees, Deacons and Deaconesses, Mothers, Auxiliary Leaders, Assistant Leaders and Adjutants. Leaders recognize the authority of God, and realize that we serve under the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ. We desire to devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the Word. Our passion and goal is to equip the believers for the work of the ministry until we all attain maturity in the fullness of Christ.
