Pastor Youssef Soufiane was born in North Africa, Morocco in a children's orphanage which is still in existence today. Never in their wildest dreams, did two young American missionary women realize that God would use them to rescue more than 75 children in a foreign land. To God be the glory! God opened the door for Pastor Youssef Soufiane to further his training at Washington Bible College in Lanham, MD. Currently he is in "candidate status" for his MA in New Testament Literature from Alliance Theological Seminary in Nyack, NY.
Pastor Youssef Soufiane is married to his best friend and supporter, Dr. Tanya Soufiane. God has gifted them with a wonderful daughter, Rachel.
Please continue to pray that God will use them according to His divine will and purpose in the Fargo-Moorhead region.
Pastor's favorite verse is (Ephesians 2:8-9), "For by Grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is a gift of God: not of works, least any man should boast."
Deland Myers, Sr. is the founding pastor of New Birth Baptist Church in Fargo, North Dakota, which was founded in April of 2009. He also founded New Birth Baptist Church in Ames, Iowa in May of 2005.
Rev. Walter McDuffy is a great blessing to New Birth Baptist Church!
