Pastor Sharon has been a follower of Christ and walking with Him for 10 years. Around 5 years ago, the Lord started “prepping” her to go out and evangelize and feed the homeless.

Pastor Sharon serves Open Heavens World by overseeing the Women’s Ministry; Children’s Ministry; leading Bible Studies; Intercessory Prayer and she also specializes in counseling and leading people to freedom in Christ.
Pastor Sharon is passionate about dancing and creativity while worshiping our God. She is also very zealous about taking care of our bodies which, as one knows, is the Lord’s temple! She enjoys people being made whole (set free) in body, mind and spirit.
