Church Highlight: Faith Alive Ministries – Central Islip, New York

Central Islip is a town located in New York with a population of about 33,000 people. It is a beautiful place to live with a suburban feel. Many suburbs encompass ocean beaches, sparkling bays, lakes, canals, ponds and historic villages. Central Islip is home to Faith Alive Ministries church.

Faith Alive Ministries was founded and birthed in 1992 by Senior Pastor, Angel Falcon. Faith Alive Ministries is a multicultural, non-denominational church where the focus is to strengthen families, church, and the community in Central Islip. It was birthed out of a great need within the Body of Christ in that region to make disciples and to bring them into greater maturity in Christ. Pastor Falcon believes that the Father’s overall intent was not only to save but to empower people by His Holy Spirit to be a light, impacting our generation and establishing His purpose on earth today. Pastor Falcon has been actively working in the community since 1974 and has dedicated his life to empowering the lost and broken through Biblical truths and principles. His mandate is to be relentless in “Pursuing His Presence, Expanding His Kingdom and Equipping His Saints.”

Pastor Falcon’s first memory of the call of God in his life was at the age of ten, while looking out his window, from their Bronx apartment, in December of 1964. He was overwhelmed by what he saw; (the condition of the neighborhood, drunkenness, homelessness, individuals sleeping in alleyways with no direction; dirty and smelly). He remembers specifically how emotional he became and being naïve at 10 years old, asked God to make him rich so that he could help clean these people up. Ten years later in May 1975, Pastor Falcon surrendered his life to God, and realized that what mankind really needed was to be redeemed by the Lord Jesus Christ. Since then, he has never looked back and has been running this race of God’s high calling and looking to honor Him and serve Him wholeheartedly by serving those He loves.
