Dr Howard Barnes
Howard Barnes was born in England in 1944 to Salvation Army pastor parents.

During these years he also was a youth leader and then served as a pastor of a local church in Cornwall, England. In 2003 he retired from teaching, after 37 years’ service, to serve the Lord in full-time ministry initially by taking the position as director of an evangelistic ministry called Harvest for Christ but then in 2008 he began to work together with his close friend and ministry colleague, Mike Pike. Howard is deeply passionate about two things. 1) to see the worldwide Church discover the meaning of real unity and so fulfil the prayer of Jesus in Jn 17 v 21 and 23 ….“that they may be One even as we are One” and 2) to understand and embrace its end-time identity as the precious Bride of Christ and to prepare her for the coming Bridegroom King. Howard has received two honorary doctorates in recognition of his mission and reconciliation/peace work in many nations worldwide. He is also an official representative for Foundations for Biblical Farming (FFF) which comes out of Zimbabwe, Africa and for the World Prayer Assembly (WPA). He is a regular speaker at international church conferences and operates under an apostolic mantel. He has been married to Tricia for 50 years who was herself a music teacher, and they have two lovely married children and four beautiful grandchildren. He is both a musician and a gifted artist.
