Sword of the Spirit Church in Hurst, TX, functions as an Apostolic mission dedicated to bringing everyone around the world back to the Gospel. This includes the lost, who left the church for whatever reason, along with those who have never been saved. Teaching and preaching the word of God to these individuals is the Sword of the Spirit Church’s mission. The Hurst, TX, organization pursues this mission by creating a whole person who is intellectually, physically, and spiritually healthy, and empowering disciples and others by the taught Word of God.

In 2003, Apostle Tyrone Howell, Jr., founded Sword of the Spirit, and it has been working toward its mission ever since. When it was founded, it was the first church that Tyrone Howell, Jr., established after becoming licensed and ordained to preach. Originally living in Virginia, the Lord called him to Texas to establish a church in Dallas. As the great-grandson of pastors, he embraced the mantle of preaching from his family and answered the Lord’s call in 2001. He, along with several other officers and directors, lead the church in its operations.

In addition to saving and rescuing people with the Word of the God, the Church supports its local community. The organization is under Fellowship and supports nursing home operations around Irving, Texas.
