With the unwavering support and dedication of eight close friends and family members, Increasing Faith and World of Faith Ministries embarked on their journey in February 2010, driven by the collective aspiration of establishing a dedicated facility in the near future.
The origins of their story can be traced back to “Word Night,” a ministry that Pastor Frankie Snider held close to his heart. It began as a modest weekly Bible study conducted in the home of their Senior Pastors and later found a welcoming space at the Comfort Suites in Summerville, South Carolina.
World of Faith Ministries ventured into outreach and itinerant ministry, sponsoring a series of impactful crusades in Ridgeville, Harleyville, and Alvin between November 2010 and March 2013. A pause in their activities followed as the Sniders celebrated the arrival of their twins.
In August 2013, a pivotal moment occurred when Pastor Snider established a profound connection with his Spiritual Father, Apostle Fredrick K.C. Price, during a visit to Crenshaw, California. It was during this divine encounter that Increasing Faith Christian Center finally found a place to call home and commenced hosting Saturday evening services.
Planted in the Pringletown area of Ridgeville, South Carolina, their mission was clear: to enhance the overall well-being of the community.
Today, they can be found at the heart of North Charleston, inside Northwoods Mall, where they faithfully serve their community. They warmly extend an invitation to join them this Sunday for their Worship and Impact Service at 10:00 AM, as they continue to spread the messages of faith, love, and togetherness.

“ Many has defined the gospel with so many definitions. One constant definition of gospel is called news.
Some will say the gospel are the comprised letters by the Apostle Paul.
Lastly some has said, the gospel are the Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
While all of these seems to have some truth, there is in fact a deeper meaning. To understand the gospel is actually to hear and understand the message of Jesus Christ.
To understand Jesus’s heart and to become one with His mind.
The four historical writings of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John gives the point of contact of Jesus’s ministry.
While the writings of the Apostles set the order of Jesus’s past works and how we should make these works the foundation of our faith towards God.
Jesus ministry challenge the orthodoxy of men’s religious activities. He was chastised for His teaching of relationships between man and God.
But what was He saying?
What was His point within His message? You see to answer these questions, would open to the door to knowing what the news is all about!
How can you be like Jesus? How can your life mirror His life? The truth is, your life cannot mirror His and because of this truth, we have been given a form of gospel that is in fact an impossible religion to believe!
The more you understand that you cannot be like Jesus, the more freer you become! Because truly that’s the truth and being like Jesus is not the gospel that
Jesus taught!
We fall short of being the example of Christ and the men has institutional Jesus Christ within the church, which makes one feel awful and not worthy of the love of Jesus Christ.
Here is the gospel. That Jesus was a powerful Son of God who came to open the eyes of everyone to the truth that we are too Sons of God.
John 10:30- 34 shows this is to be true. Jesus quotes Psalm 82nd where He says, “ Is it not written in your law,
I said, “You are gods?”
Jesus was teaching the rejected that they too are divine and have the nature of God in them. He was teaching that Gods Holy Spirit that dwells in Him also dwells in us!
