Who we are

Our Statement of Faith

We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible written Word of God.

We believe that there is only One God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son and, God the Holy Spirit.

We believe in the blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the Church of God, which is in Christ, at His return.

We believe that the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ.

We believe that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation.

We believe that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer.

We believe that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.

We believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in the present world.

Leader Bio:
Dwight A. Hunt was born on December 27, 1965, to Dr. James Edward and Leatrice Earnestine Hunt. He is one of seven children. He attended the local public schools, graduating from Poughkeepsie High School in the summer of 1984. Elder Hunt enrolled and attended Dutchess Community College in 1984. While there, he studied electrical engineering. Subsequent to his graduation, Dwight Hunt completed two years of religious education at the Mid Hudson Bible Institute.

In 1994, Pastor Hunt felt a call to the ministry and rededicated his life to the Lord that year. The following year, on April 14, 1995, Elder Hunt received his licensure to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The church has watched this young man grow by leaps and bounds under the anointing of the spirit of God. His gifts and talents are many, captivating his audiences with the wisdom of God, articulation of speech and oratorical skills. His gifts in teaching, application, and interpretation of the Word of God sustain and enhance the church. It energizes the believer to reach maximum potential.

Between 1994 and 1998, Pastor Hunt worked on a Graduate degree and a Doctorial degree simultaneously. He graduated with Honors from the Spirit of Truth Institute in Richmond, Virginia, in 1998. In 1999, Pastor Hunt earned a degree in Sociology from Empire State College in Albany, New York.

In 1995 through 1996, Pastor Hunt condensed his theological studies at the Mid Hudson Bible Institute, writing his thesis in 1996 and received his Bachelors of Theology degree. He was ordained an an Elder on August 23, 1997. Pastor Dwight is an ardent and astute student of the Bible. He is a master at synthesizing volumes of information into the most pertinent principles for church health and growth, and additionally has the ability to convert complex truths into understandable concepts. We are truly blessed to have this treasure in earthen vessel among us.

Pastor Dwight Hunt is an active participant in every aspect of church work. He worked closely with his father (Bishop James E. Hunt), as Assistant Pastor until his passing in July 2011. He is often found working behind the scenes, visiting the sick and shut in, making his rounds in nursing homes and hospitals, and performing ministerial duties to many in and around the community. He remains a passionate, spiritual, confident leader who stands to encourage church ministries and promote spiritual growth and development for every member of Beth-El Church of God in Christ.

Pastor Hunt initiated the Men’s Fellowship Breakfast, in which men of all ages meet once a month for the purpose of fellowship, as well as solidifying the group, reaching out to the undergrowth and mentoring them. Pastor Hunt heads a Master’s and Doctoral class in Theology, an affiliate of the Spirit of Truth Institute, which falls under the auspices of the Mid Hudson Bible Institute. He has held several ceremonies conferring Honorary Doctor of Divinity degrees upon deserving high profile leaders in the New York First Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction. He was installed as Pastor on September 31, 2011 after the passing of our beloved founder, Bishop James E. Hunt. He is a man who is well balanced, practical, and powerful in the Lord.

Pastor Hunt is recognized in the community of Poughkeepsie, as well as surrounding areas. He is respected and honorably represents Beth-El Church of God in Christ throughout Dutchess County and on a state level as well.

In every era, God raises up a leader to champion a cause and to pioneer new possibilities for God’s people. God has blessed us with Pastor Dwight Hunt - a visionary with perception, insight, and discernment - a man of God destined to fulfill God’s commission for his generation and leaving an indelible impact for generations to come.
