A Little About Tell Them Ministries and Bishop August S. Francis...

Tell Them Ministries began in 1976, in New Orleans, Louisiana. At that time, Pastor August Francis was pastoring his second (2nd) church plant, Evangel Temple. During this time, Pastor Francis was impressed of the Lord to begin a radio broadcast. When seeking theLord for a broadcast name, he was touched by the song, of Andre'Crouch, “Tell Them”. The words, “Tell them, even if they don't believe you, tell them, even if they don't receive you. Tell them for me, please tell them for me that I love them...”. This broadcast was the beginning of Tell Them Ministries.

In 1980, Pastor Francis turned over this ministry to his assistant pastor and began an evangelistic home missions program to cities, such as Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Picayune and others. These resulted in evangelistic meetings, street crusades, tent revivals, ministry training and new plants.

Over the last thirty-seven (37) years, Tell Them Ministries has startedand pastored eight churches, worked with and strengthen eight ministries and trained over twenty (20) ministers for the work of the Gospel. He has been involved in the Biblical work of the Apostle.

In addition, Bishop Francis has conducted many revivals, worked with a major Christian Television Network and hosted several Christian radio and television programs. His desire and the vision of Tell Them is to work with the Pastors, Ministers and smaller Churches to help them to become everything that the Lord has called them to be and accomplish.
