Who We Are
Rooted in San Bernardino, CA. We are committed to reaching, teaching, building and restoring into ministry, our community one soul at a time by planting seeds of hope.
We opened our doors in 1997 under the anointing of Pastor Gustavo Cortez. In 2001, Pastor Gustavo went on to be with the Lord at which time, Pastor Peter Cortez became the successor of Touch of the Master Ministries. God has continued to move in a mighty way through Touch of the Master Ministries. In 2022, Touch of the Master Ministry relocated into a fruitful neighborhood. God continues to bless and grow Touch of the Master Ministries. Lives are being changed at Touch of the Master Ministries and people are coming to know and grow in Christ Jesus.
​
We Believe:
In one God– Father, Son and Holy Spirit, creator of all things.
The Lord Jesus, true man and true God, the only begotten Son of God, was: conceived of the Holy Spirit; born of the Virgin Mary; dead, buried, resurrected; ascended into Heaven and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father.
The Bible in its entirety to be the inspired word of God and the infallible rule of faith and conduct.
The only way for personal salvation of believers (being born again) is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ for both Jew and Gentile.
In sanctification through the Word of God and by the Holy Spirit, and we believe in personal holiness, purity, of heart and life.
In divine healing, through faith in the name of Jesus Christ, and that healing is included in redemption.
In water baptism, in the Baptism in the Holy Spirit as distinct from the new birth, in speaking with tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance, in the gifts of the Spirit and that evidence of the fruit of the spirit. We believe that all of these are available to believers.
God established marriage between one man and one woman as the foundation of mankind.
In the soon coming, personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ for His Bride (rapture).
In evangelism and missionary work in accordance with the Christian commission (Matt 28:19).
In the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to Earth to establish His Kingdom.
