About The Founder ~ Rev. Sue Willis
A licensed minister with the Assemblies of God, National and International speaker, and a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors, Rev. Sue Willis is impassioned by a divine call upon her life to minister the simplicity of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to preserve and model Spirit-empowered ministry to this and future generations. It is with this passion and her willingness to submit to the prompting of the Holy Spirit that Sue felt inspired to establish Touching the Hem of His Garment Ministries, Inc.™, doing business today as the Abundant Life Ministry Center.
Sue’s on-going spiritual journey began more than 35 years ago, when she was called to ministry soon after her salvation. In 2007, the pregnancy Resource Center of the South Hills sought out the expertise of Sue Willis to produce a ground-breaking ministry for the victims of rape and sexual abuse after receiving numerous calls from pastors, women and teens looking for help. She responded and introduced “A Time to Heal Beyond Survival”, which has proved to be unparalleled in bringing restoration to victim’s lives. Sue has also developed and produced a Leadership Training Program to raise-up and equip others to provide this ministry in their area.
