Dr. Henry L. Armington, Sr. 

Dr. Henry L. Armington, Sr. was born to the holy matrimony of Willie and Rosie Lee Armington on November 26, 1966. He grew up in the small rural area of Jefferson, Texas where he attended the Jefferson Public School District and Belview Baptist Church. Following a devastating illness, he received a vision from God and accepted his call to pursue ministry as a gospel preacher at the age of 13 in October 1980. Just two years later, the youngest preacher ever of the city of Jefferson was licensed and ordained as a minister. Even though this young preacher could barely see over the podium seated on the rostrum, a little child would lead the city.

Dr. Armington’s key objective is focused toward the persuasion of the young, as well as the elder, inspired to accept the Word as a standard way of living while becoming more prosperous during their walk with the Master. Since graduating from high school and enlisting in the United States Navy in 1985, his ministry has escalated through his attendance and approach to retain advanced studies. He has attended numerous Military Leadership, Management, and Instructor Schools that led to graduating from Bishop A. L. Hardy Theological Seminary with both the Master of Ministerial Arts and the Doctor of Ministry Degrees. 

Dr. Armington’s background, leadership ability, skills and talent are in all aspects of a preacher, teacher, and motivating speaker. He has found favor with God in being allotted the opportunity to appear on several radio broadcast, television stations, and newspaper articles including, but not limited to, Black Entertainment Television (BET) Network, Trinity Broadcast Network (TBN), Jefferson Jimplicute, Marshall News Journal, and New American Press. By following God’s directions, he has consistently emphasized the necessity of exhibiting love and the importance of teaching God’s Word. 

Dr. Armington continues to serve in the capacity as President for Community Outreach Project Enterprise, Inc. (COPE) of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania since 1997. He recently organized the Gathering of Eagles with a global mission to break barriers that has attempted to distort kingdom building through race, ethnicity, and denomination. His motivation has initiated his energetic drive through his dynamic and gifted writing ability to conclude writing his first book entitled, “How to Save Your Marriage Without Losing Your Mind.” 

Dr. Armington is married to the former Katherine Dixon of Belcher, Louisiana and they have two children born to their union residing in the metropolitan city of Shreveport, Louisiana.
