Mount Gideon M.B. Church

As God continued to enlarge Huston’s territory spiritually his physical territory was enlarged as well with three memorable trips to the Holy Land in Jerusalem where members were baptized in the Jordan River; revival for three years in Trinidad – West Indies; a special mission sending 300 Pastors to Japan; the beautiful beaches of Hawaii and many trips within the United States which includes an annual return to Hot Springs Arkansas.

Evangelist Danielle Davis received the Lord at an early age while attending Mt. Beulah M. B. Church in Saint Louis, Missouri under the Pastoral leadership of Rev. Dr. E.G. Shields, Sr. However, soon after finishing high school, Evangelist Davis strayed away from God's will, and tried to do her “own thing”. In choosing this path she encountered struggle and hardship. She became a mother at the age of 18 and tragically four months later her brother was killed. The passing of her brother was the last sign she needed that made her turn around and head back to Jesus. In September of 1994, Evangelist Davis rededicated her life to the Lord at the Mt. Gideon M. B. Church in University City, Missouri under the leadership of Rev. Dr. Robert L. Huston.

Evangelist Davis accepted the Lord's call into the ministry of preaching HIS word in March of 2001. Her first message was preached at a women's conference on July 29, 2001 which she remembers so vividly as it was 7 years earlier on the same date (7/29/94) when her brother was buried. Evangelist Davis serves as the overseer of the Single Mother's Support Outreach which serves to offer emotional and physical support as well as gives biblical instruction and guidance to the women of the church and the community.

Evangelist Davis will testify that even though she has had her ups as well as her downs and may go through trials and tribulations she knows without any doubt that GOD is in CONTROL and He has assured her that He will never leave her nor forsake her. She is noted to be on fire for the Lord and knows the best decision she has ever made was to return to the Lord and she will never turn back.

Evangelist Davis is a proud mother of a handsome son named DeMonte Davis, who keeps her busy as he plays basketball with the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and McCluer Senior High School.
