Wayman O Mitchell is the, founder of Christian Fellowship Ministries aka, The Door, and Victory Chapel, and is the senior pastor of the Potters House Christian Fellowship which comprises aprox 1400 churches in 95 countries [1] He has been a born again Christian since 1953, baptized in the Holy Ghost since 1954 and has been a Pentecostal pastor since 1960. Pr Mitchell conducts "healing crusades", for which he has been likened to a modern day Smith Wigglesworth[citation needed]. Mitchell has preached in many churches in the United States and has also preached in Perth Western Australiawhere he was senior pastor for 3 years.

Mitchell was born in the Great Depression 1933 in Prescott, Arizona, where he and his wife Nelda currently reside. Pastor Mitchell was stationed on the Island of Guam between 1948-1952 for the U.S. military during the Korean war. While there he was head supervisor of the maintenance shop. During this time he was promoted to Staff Sergeant and offered a candidacy at an officer training school. Many have concluded that Pastor Mitchell's style of Christian discipleship is strongly influenced by his former military training. After his military service he met Nelda Henderson at a dance in Phoenix in 1952. They got married on Feb 7th 1953. Ten months after the birth of their first daughter, she suddenly died of cot death. During this time Mitchell was unemployed. Jobs were scarce and unemployment was widespread. This was the turning point in his life. George Mitchell, Wayman's brother had been saved at a Foursquare church and invited the grieving couple to a church meeting. They both responded to an altar call and became born again Christians
