Pastor Minnie Kellogg’s anointing was displayed at a young age, even on the school playground. Her journey in Christ began at Brown Chapel Baptist Church in Unadilla, GA. As she grew in Christ, her walk with the Lord led her to Healing and Deliverance Pentecostal Church of Unadilla, GA. Wherever God said go, Pastor went. She began evangelizing in Hampton Roads, Virginia, joining God’s Holy Temple Universal Risen Church of God under the Elected State Mother Pastor Lessie M. Wilson in 1987. As Pastor Kellogg grew in discipleship, she was ordained as an Evangelist in the mid-1990s. While she evangelized, she obtained her degree in nursing, offering love and care to the sick wherever she went. Her ministry existed beyond the walls of the sanctuary. From private-duty nursing to home healthcare, Hearts & Hands, Pastor Kellogg was determined to exalt in her gifts. The Lord called upon her to pursue an outreach ministry and was anointed and ordained as Pastor under the guidance of Bishop Q. S. Caldwell. From there, she ministered in Ray City, establishing Rainbow of Faith Ministries.

On July 5, 2009, Pastor Minnie (Coosie) cut the ribbon and founded Real Life & Faith Outreach Ministries in Valdosta, GA, “Where we make a difference through Christ one day and one life at a time.” In this chapter of her life, the Lord placed Pastor Kellogg at New Beginnings Church Ministry in Lakeland, GA. In her later years, she studied and received a degree in Chaplaincy, aiding those grieving through loss after Covid-19. Pastor Kellogg took the Lord’s call to an assignment at North Valdosta Church of God in which she tarried until the Lord called her home. Coosie understood her purpose and completed her missions to reach the masses as God led her. She made a difference in many lives near and abroad, serving.
