Meet Pieter & Melinda

WHAT WE DO
Inner Healing and Deliverance Training & Equipping
Melinda and Pieter are passionate about seeing people walking in the fulness Jesus paid for through deliverance, inner healing, and mind renewal. They offer teaching, equipping, training, and practical tools to bring freedom into churches, families, and ministries.
"Deliverance ministry is about removing demonic oppression from the body and soul of a believer, but deliverance is not just about getting us out of bondage, it’s about accessing the generational promises and blessings available to us because of Jesus."
Melinda Lagaay
Marriage and Family Restoration
Whether you’re healing from infidelity or rebuilding connection, we help restore homes and marriages through conferences, training, and a variety of courses & resources. We also offer a very limited amount of two-day inner healing and deliverance intensives at our home near Redding, California.
"God's plan is always redemption and restoration."
Pieter & Melinda
Identity & Purpose
We equip people to know who they are and why they’re here—so they can rise in boldness, clarity, and so that they can arise and shine to create Kingdom legacy. We believe every generational line is destined to make a significant impact. Our passion is to see families and individuals step into their dreams.
"Deliverance gets us out of Egypt, but mind renewal - knowing our identity and having prophetic vision for the future - is what gets us into the promised land." Melinda Lagaay
