Although God has allowed our apostle to receive numerous
awards, honors and proclamations, Bishop Lackey’s
greatest honor is to serve and empower “The Least,
The Lost, The Less & The Left Out”. His philosophy
of, “Servant-Leadership,” is evidenced through his
community service and activism. He organized and served
as President of the South Fulton Chapter of the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference for 4 years, he served
as the Co-coordinator of the Faith-Based Initiative of
the Atlanta Community Impact Program (a partnership with
the Atlanta Police Department) for 4 years and was a
member of the South Fulton Kiwanis Club for many years.
He currently serves as the Faith-Based representative of
the Aerotropolis Atlanta Alliance, he’s a member of the Chaplaincy for the Fulton County Sheriff’s Department, he serves as the Chancellor of the United Theological Institute & School and he’s the CEO of Aaron B. Lackey Ministries, Inc., a 501©3 charitable organization that coordinates most of the Bishop’s foreign and domestic outreach efforts.
This powerful man of vision, has allowed God to birth within him, a message designed to, “Save, Heal, Equip, and to Evangelize,” a lost and dying world. At every venue, Chief Apostle Aaron B. Lackey uses his God-given charisma to, “Reach the Lost & Teach the Found!”
