Pastor
Daniel Sampson, Sr.
Daniel Sampson, Sr., is a young minister who is not new to kingdom work. An original native of Brooklyn, NY, he was brought up in McClinton Baptist Church, under the covenant of Pastor and Founder Rev. Dr. Maggie McClinton, from birth until his teenage years. Daniel accepted Christ at an early age and was baptized and received the Holy Ghost at age six. While under McClinton's ministry, he began his walk as a Jr. Deacon at the age of 11 and later became a youth Sunday school teacher by age 13. He was faithful to this ministry, but God's plan sent him to a new destination following high school. After graduation, he relocated to Harford County, Maryland.
While in Maryland, Daniel did not forsake his commitment to Christ and continued his work in ministry under Evangelistic Deliverance Ministries Inc. of Havre de Grace, MD. Daniel walked onto the deacon board and served as its head for 2 years. In 2007, he became a licensed minister and has been preaching the Gospel ever since. Under the direction of the late Overseer/Founder Patricia A. Pringle, Daniel was involved in multiple aspects of the ministry. He sang in the choir and praise team, served as a sound engineer for the church, and was a head coordinator of the children's ministry (Kingdom Kids) for several years. He would later be appointed as an adjutant to Pastor Pringle's predecessor, Bishop Kenneth Johnson, Sr.
Now a resident of Fargo, ND, Daniel has joined the New Birth Baptist ministry and has his hand to the plow for any kingdom work God has in store for him here. He was installed as the pastor of New Birth Baptist Church on July 26, 2015, and he is excited about reaching more of God's people. Rev. D. Sampson is eager to manifest the prophecy that was spoken over his life many years ago. He's a preacher, a teacher, an intercessor, and a counselor, but always a servant of the Lord, first.
