Pastor Curney was licensed to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ in October 1987. Pastor Curney began his ministry as Youth Pastor. Pastor Curney was thoroughly equipped to accept God’s present calling as Senior Pastor of New Mercies. Pastor Curney recently graduated from Luther Rice University of Lithonia, GA; he received a Master’s of Divinity Degree in Theology.

During the latter part of 1999, God spoke to Pastor Jesse Curney, III and said, “I have a new thing for you.” After hearing the voice of God, Pastor Curney began to fast and pray. During his prayer time, Pastor Curney asked the question, “God what do you want your new temple of dwelling to be named?” God reminded him that every day you arise, “I provide you with new mercies.” From that reminder, Pastor Curney began to call the baby that God was about to birth, New Mercies.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
– Isaiah 41:10 (NIV)

During the year of 2000 God began to speak to Pastor Jesse Curney, III; “I have a new thing for you.” After hearing the voice of God, Pastor Curney began to pray concerning the revelation God had given him. In the latter part of 2001, during Pastor Curney’s prayer time, God’s voice became clearer. During this time of prayer, Pastor Curney asked the question, “God what do you want your new temple of dwelling to be named?” God spoke and reminded him that everyday you arise, “I provide you with new mercies”. From that point forward, Pastor Curney began to call that which was about to be birthed out of him, “New Mercies”.
