Pastor Herman L Love III is the founding Pastor of Life Touch Ministries Int'l Church.  Pastor Love confessed Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior at the age of 14 while attending the Eaton Rapids Holiness Methodist Campground Meeting.  Shortly after returning home, he received the baptism of the Holy Ghost.  

     

     During his teen years, Pastor Love recognized the call of ministry on his life and began a Youth Outreach Fellowship along with his two best friends in the basement of his home, which consisted of prayer and Bible study.  Due to the rapid growth the Fellowship moved from his basement to the local community center.

   

      In 2001, Pastor Love was ordained an Elder in the Church of God in Christ in Detroit, Michigan and in 2003, launched a mission church called Greater Joy Ministries in Ypsilanti, Michigan.  In 2013, after much prayer and consecration Greater Joy was changed to Life Touch Ministries.

     

     With over 30 years of evangelistic ministry and over 21 years of Pastoral ministry, Pastor Love is not a novice to servanthood.  In the local setting he has served as a Youth Pastor, Pastor of Evangelism, Minister of Music, and Assistant Pastor.  On the District Level, Music President, Evangelism President, and District Chairman.  On a State Level he has served in the following capacities, Secretary and Chairman of Finance, Assistant Jurisdictional Secretary, State Evangelism President, District Superintendent, and in 2024 he was appointed Administrative Assistant to the Bishop in Michigan Eastern Jurisdiction of the Church of God in Christ.  On the National Level, Pastor Love was appointed to the Codification Committee working on the Church of God in Christ manual upgrade.  

     

     Outside of the church, Pastor Herman Love is a father and grandfather.  He has a passion for writing, authoring three books.  God has favored him to travel as an evangelist and serve as a resource for Pastors and peers.  His educational background consists of Willow Run Community Public Schools, Washtenaw Community College, and the C.H Mason Bible Institute in Detroit, Michigan. Humbled by God's grace, Pastor Love continues to preach and teach the gospel compelling sinners to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and equipping the body of Christ to live victoriously in all areas of life.
