Nikki Young

Rev. Nikki Young has spent the last 20 yrs dedicated to a life of service. Whether helping lead a flock of fellow believers, working as a teachers assistant for special needs children, or leading others through the 12 steps of recovery as a faith based rehabilitation teacher, Nikki gives her time and energy to make the world a better place. Nikki believes that the ability to give back is a blessing, and that there is no greater call than to manifest the word through actions /works. As Chief Operating Officer of ISI, she is focused on the growth of the organization and implementation of its mission. As such, you will find her focused on driving community partnerships, project/fundraising initiatives, and developing organizational structure. Outside of her world of service, she is a mother to three wonderful children, whom she adores and spends as much time with as possible. During her downtime, you will find her spending time with her family and friends, taking pictures of flowers, or being creative.

Gary Longo

Bishop MS District

I have been in ministry since 1981 after being delivered from addictions to tobacco and alcohol.

I took out license with the Pentecostal Church of God in 1982 and was ordained in 1986.

My first pastoral position was in Vicksburg, MS where I pastored for five years. Afterwards I was elected as pastor of Trinity Gospel Fellowship in March of 1995, where I still serve as pastor.

I served as a sectional presbyter with the MS District Pentecostal Church of God for many years until I was elected as the state Secretary and Treasurer, which I served for a total of fifteen years.

I was then elected to the office of District Bishop in 2010. I’m currently still serving in that position with the MS District Pentecostal Church of God.

I am a member of the National General Board of the Pentecostal Church of God.
