Beloved Glory Brides Global,

NAME CHANGE was what the Lord took me through in 1997 when he changed my name from "Joan" to "Joan Ann" - a name that I had for the past 60 years at that time.

Beloved, Holy Spirit showed me the "Why" for the name change. For the meaning of the name "Joan" meant "God is gracious!" And God has been gracious to me to change an over-half-of-a-hundred-year-old-plus-ten-years aged person - to the name of "Ann" which means "God's gracious one!" Ever since that day in 1997 I was to be called "Joan Ann" so I would (selah) every time I heard my name spoken.

That name change in 1997 to this day began a journey of BRIDEHOOD for me. In 1997 I felt anything but like "God's gracious one" - after years of being abused, being rejected and being misunderstood. The Lord had me write a few books along my journey about my journey.

Yet when I changed my plain name of "Joan" to add the "Ann" to it that I had left off of my name for so many years - it began a big turn-about for me that only God could have known about.

A couple of years later God took me to Ireland to find information about my real father's family name. This information I gathered about the family name of my real name from the earthly father I never knew was to reveal who I really was. That Irish Name was a name of kings and royalty who were of those in high authority in Ireland. Today I have stacks of family-name historical papers to back up my kingly heritage that the Lord led me to discover.

My name change began my ministry GLORY BRIDES GLOBAL, a ministry for many brides for Jesus to come and be changed from glory to glory to be His Bride and God's light bearers on earth for such a time as this.

Glory Brides Global are not only Intercessors and more - but they are SOUL-WINNING-HARVEST-GATHERERS for such a time as this.

Holy Spirit sent me to Tampa, Florida, over an hour's drive, to be a member of the revival church of Drs. Rodney and Adonica Howard-Browne.

My life is totally dedicated to God's service of winning souls and mentoring the beloved to become the "Glory Brides Global" - The beloved that Jesus longs to have as His for all eternity, those who I pray will be at The Marriage Feast of The Lamb.

Since April 2003 to this day September 2003, over 53,000 souls have been saved as we plundered hell to populate heaven for such a time as this. Glory Brides Global Missions to America for Revival is happening NOW! Our website is www.glorybridesglobal.com - Come join us by checking our website out and using "The Script" printed for you to go out into the harvest fields and win souls with us as we intercede as led by Holy Spirit - FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS!

Love & Blessings,

Joan Ann
