Pastor Benny Humphries grew up in Akron, Ohio. He was born again November 14, 1997, at the age of twenty-nine. Three months afterward, he began a ministry in Lakeland, Florida, called My Brother’s Keeper, a rehabilitation center for men and women who fought with substance abuse. Pastor Benny was also a volunteer minister in the Department of Corrections (prison) in Polk County, Florida. Shortly afterward, he was called to North Carolina to study at Morning Star University. It was during this period that, for two consecutive nights, the Lord sent Benny to Peru in dreams.
In 1999 he went to Tarapoto, Peru for a crusade. Returning to the E.E.U.U., the Lord spoke to Him about returning to Peru full time. Pastor Benny is the founder and President of Deeper in Love Ministries and the Exodo Church in the city of Tarapoto. He is the author of several books and the proprietor of a Christian Elementary school in Tarapoto. Pastor Benny is married to Alexandra Tanchiva Vela De Humphries and has six children.
