Dino Kemp was born on September 24 in Chicago, Illinois. At the age of three, he moved to Harvey, Illinois, where he was raised and began building a life rooted in faith, family, service, and community.
Dino accepted Christ at an early age and was baptized on May 3, 1979, at Bethlehem Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Harvey, Illinois, by the late Reverend J. C. Smith. He remained a faithful member of the church and later served as an Associate Minister, dedicating himself to serving God and His people.
Dino’s greatest calling was his ministry. He was the Founder and Pastor of Greater Works Deliverance Global Ministries, where he ministered to countless people both online and throughout the community. He truly had a heart after God’s own heart. Dino was passionate about reaching people, encouraging them, praying for them, and sharing the Word of God. His ministry was more than a title; it was a reflection of his faith, his love for God, and his compassion for others.
Although Dino has transitioned from this earthly life, his family and those he ministered to find comfort in knowing that the work of Greater Works Deliverance Global Ministries will continue. The guidance he provided, the Word he taught, the prayers he prayed, and the love he shared will continue to live through those he touched. His vision will continue, his ministry will continue to flourish, and the seeds he planted will continue to bear fruit for generations to come.
Dino proudly served his country in both the United States Army and United States Navy. His commitment to service extended far beyond his military career and into his community. He was a true pillar in the community, known for his leadership, loyalty, generosity, and willingness to serve others.
Dino was a proud member of Kappa Lambda Chi Military Fraternity, where he served as the ACE of the “Kingman’s Line.” He was affectionately known within the fraternity as “Shadow Warrior.” He was also a member of Al-Karim Temple No. 242 Prince Hall Shriners in Riverdale, Georgia, where he became the class leader of his line. Among his fellow Shriners, he was lovingly known as “Purple Rain,” a name that reflected his unique personality, confidence, and unmistakable style.
Dino’s Masonic journey was also an important part of his life. He was a longtime member of Alpha and Omega Lodge #121 in Chicago, Illinois, before recently transferring to Victory Lodge #482 in Macon, Georgia. His Masonic affiliations also included King David #5 Royal Arch House, Booker T. Reid #11 Royal Masters, Mark Frazier #15 Knight Templar, and John L. Martin Consistory (Scottish Rite).
If you knew Dino, you knew that his personality could fill a room. He had a presence that was impossible to ignore. His humor, style, confidence, kindness, and genuine love for people made him unforgettable. Wherever Dino went, his personality shined through. He was a devoted husband, loving father, pastor, veteran, brother, uncle, mentor, and friend.
Dino was preceded in death by his beloved mother, Lula Mae Kemp, and his grandmother, Blanche Outlaw.
His devoted wife, Antoinette Kemp; his children, Deajon Kemp, D’Anthony Kemp, D’Monte Kemp, and Kiara Kemp; and Marquecio Flynn, whom he lovingly helped raise and served as a father figure to.
He also leaves his sisters, La-Trice Wimberly (George) and Sulia Kemp (Prim); his brother and best friend, Anthony Frazier Jr. (Madeline); his mother-in-law and father-in-law, Eadie Mae Simmons and Anthony Simmons; his brother-in-law, Derrick Manigault (Mishonda); and his sister-in-law, Romella Manigault-Simmons.
He leaves to cherish his memory his nieces and nephews, Curtis (Tamika), Sha’Mar, Shaheim, Shamond, Prim III, Jair, Daniel, Essence (Allen), Derrick, Aliyah, and Mariah; his great-nieces and great-nephews, Rayn, Ta’Curion, Nova, and Ezekiel; along with a host of uncles, cousins, extended family members, brothers and sisters in ministry, fellow veterans, Masonic and Shrine brothers, fraternity brothers, and countless friends.
Dino lived a life of faith, service, leadership, brotherhood, and love. He touched lives in ways that words cannot fully express. His voice, laughter, prayers, wisdom, personality, and love will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him.
As his family mourns his earthly departure, they take comfort in knowing that the work he began will continue. Greater Works Deliverance Global Ministries will continue to live through the guidance he gave, the Word he taught, and the spirit he poured into those around him. His ministry will continue to flourish, his vision will continue, and his legacy of faith and service will never be forgotten.
Dino may have left this earthly home, but the impact of his life remains. Every life he touched, every prayer he prayed, every person he encouraged, and every seed he planted is part of his enduring legacy.
Well done, Pastor Dino. Your earthly assignment is complete. Your legacy lives on. Your ministry lives on. Your love lives on.

You were loved.
You are deeply missed.
And you will never be forgotten.
