HISTORY

FMI (Frontline Ministries International) was founded by Reverend Blanca Ramirez in 2017. She was the second of seven daughters born to Mexican immigrants and the first American generation born in Brownsville, Texas. In 1974 her family transitioned to Aurora, Illinois where Reverend Ramirez raised a family of her own. She overcame an abusive relationship with a gang leader while accomplishing to keep her four children safe from the violence of the streets. In 2000, her oldest daughter developed Rheumatic Fever at the tender age of eleven years old. It was then that the Reverend felt drawn to Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior. It is where she found her solace and strength as her daughter’s health continued to deteriorate and in September 2018, passing away from complications of Pneumonia, leaving three children to be raised by their father. By God’s grace and much prayer, Reverend Ramirez has been able to sustain her son’s battle with cancer and various encounters with the law. She has experienced much grief but has been determined to hold onto God’s promises pertaining to her children, and grandchildren.

Throughout the years she has been a mother, grandmother, an intercessor, a valiant spiritual warrior while never forgetting from where the Lord Jesus has brought her from. She is called to make disciples of Jesus Christ’s followers as it is commissioned in Matthew 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit”.
VALUES
OUR BELIEFS...​
​
-
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is without error, and it is our only authority regarding the matter of salvation and Christian practice.
-
We believe in one God, Creator of heaven and earth. This one God has revealed himself to man as the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
-
We believe that in order for fallen man to be restored to a right relationship with God and saved from eternal punishment, he must be “Born Again” of the water and Spirit.
-
We believe that if a person chooses to stay in their sinful state of life they will never enter into a true relationship with God.
-
We believe in the New Testament practice of water baptism by immersion in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
We believe that the baptism of the Holy Spirit is still an experience for all believers today, initially evidenced by speaking with other tongues.
-
We believe that Jesus Christ will return again for his church and that no one knows the day or the hour of His appearing.
-
We believe that Jesus Christ born of the Virgin Mary who came to earth manifested in the flesh without sin to pay the price for the salvation of all mankind.
-
We believe that the power of God still operates in people today. God still heals physically, mentally, emotionally and He is still performing miracles today when faith is present.
-
We believe in the operation of all the gifts of the Spirit as given by God to the church. God allows the church to operate in these gifts to edify the body of Christ.
-
We believe in financial tithing and giving offerings to God for the support of His kingdom on earth. This is a means through which God has chosen to financially bless, prosper and cause us to become successful in life.
-
We believe that all Christians should pursue after holiness and strive to live a holy and consecrated life, separating themselves from the sins of the world.
-
We believe that God has established marriage as a lifelong, exclusive relationship between one man and one woman and that all intimate sexual activity outside the marriage relationship, whether heterosexual, homosexual, or otherwise, and that all conduct with the intent to adopt a gender other than one’s birth gender is immoral and therefore sin.

VISION
Our first commitment is to be sensitive to the moving of the Holy Spirit as He leads us into wisdom and truth. To lead people to a relationship with Jesus Christ through Baptism, Discipleship, Preaching, Prayer, and Worship .
