In 1978 the first couple was planted into another nation – Australia; and it was discovered the Gospel worked there, just like it did here.  After that, churches were planted in Mexico, Holland and Germany then as it came to understand God’s global mission more and more, churches began to be planted throughout the world. To date, there are over 2700 churches in 44 US states, and 145 nations of the world. Churches are recognised under Christian Fellowship Ministries as; The Potter's House, The Door or Victory Chapel.

Founding Pastor Wayman Mitchell

Wayman and Nelda Mitchell were married for 63 years, until her passing in 2016. Neither of them had a religious upbringing, but experienced powerful conversions in their mid-20’s. After responding to the call to preach, they pastored a number of churches in Canada, Arizona, Idaho, Oregon, and California. God began a marvelous outpouring of conversions and growth in connection with the “Jesus Movement” of the 1970’s. As God revealed His plan for discipleship, churches began to be planted throughout the US, and then spreading to many other nations. The Mitchells have pastored as missionaries to Australia on 3 different occasions to accelerate the movement there. Pastor Mitchell continues to travel extensively throughout the world preaching in various Potter's House conferences, rallies, leadership meetings, discipleship classes and healing crusades, bringing his passion for God and over 56 years of ministry experience.
