APOSTLE DR. MARTIN L. GRIFFIN, SR.
“And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; ...” (Mark 16: 15-17). "Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me...Let us rise up and build” (Neh. 2:18).
VISIONARY AND FOUNDER
Apostle Martin L. Griffin, Sr. is the overseer and founder of Equipping Ministries Fellowship International (EMFI). Gifted with a strong apostolic, prophetic, and teaching anointing, Apostle Griffin travels nationally and internationally, training and equipping churches and individuals to function in the fullness of power in the Holy Spirit. He is progressively taking the Gospel of the Kingdom of God into the entire world, with signs, wonders, and miracles following.
As an apostolic father, Apostle Griffin is mantled to embrace, nurture, train, and release sons and daughters, helping them bridge their transition from the doctrines and traditions of men to an apostolic model of ministry. He has been called to restore the early church apostolic model to the body of Christ. He has been instructed to rise and build, not of brick and mortar, but spiritual buildings.
​
God has called Apostle Griffin as a Nehemiah to rebuild the walls that traditions of men have torn down (Nehemiah 2:18), so people will see that there is more to kingdom living than just attending church on Sundays. He is an end-time apostle with vision, leadership skills, and compassion.
Apostle Griffin founded and established EMFI as a partnership of churches and ministries throughout the globe to advance the Kingdom of God. He is ordained, equipped, and given a mandate by God to fulfill His purposes. His sincere commitment to enhancing the Kingdom of God is marked by over 45 years of pastoral leadership, many other ministry distinctions, and more than 44 years of marriage to his wife Brenda. Together, they have five children, six grandchildren, and a host of spiritual sons and daughters.
