ABOUT TRM

Total Restoration Ministries was birth out of the spirit of our Pastor, Damone S. White. Pastor White & his wife Salome served in his local church for over 17 years as Associate Elder and an armor bearer to his former Pastor, Bishop H Anthony Stephens at The Abundant Life Apostolic Church. They were faithful to the ministry and served in many competencies until the Lord called them out in 2008. 

 

He evangelized in several churches from state to state. Over the course of the years, God spoke to Pastor White through visions, dreams, and many prophecies to give him the plan for the ministry. Pastor White pondered and wrestled with what the Lord was revealing to him. Telling no one, He sat down with his wife Salome to share with her what God had put in his heart. She embraced the plan and confirmed that what God had given him would be something he would have to start and not something he would inherit. He prayed and began to write the plan. Eventually on his mail route, God sent people that were un-churched or without faith, seeking counseling and spiritual guidance. 

 

After spending much prayer time with the Lord, Pastor White was given permission to Go. With the blessing of Bishop Sherman S Watkins, Pastor White, his wife Salome and his son (Sean) started The Great Work of establishing Total Restoration Ministries. 

 

Remembering the Lord telling him he was “Not Limited” on May 4, 2008, Pastor White stepped out on faith and found a location at 3152 Lighthouse Drive Fairfield, Ohio. 

 

The church worshipped at that location for one month, before they were put out of the establishment by the owner who stated “He didn’t want any church on his property!” because of the bar on the corner. After many hours of praying, Total Restoration Ministries moved to their new location ~ 6025 Dixie Highway suite 230 on Sunday, June 15. We praised and worshipped God there for 4 years. During this time, the ministry grew and experienced loss but God’s hand was on the ministry. A revival broke out and many souls were saved, filled with the Holy Ghost and the spirit of God was upon our Pastor and the church. 

 

In 2011, during watch service, the Lord spoke to Pastor White and he shared with the congregation of about 38 members that the Lord only gave him 16 members. After this revelation, some people began to leave. Pastor White and Lady White did not get discouraged, because God confirmed his word. He told them there was no lack in him. At this time, the congregation consisted of mostly high school students. They kept the faith and they continued to have church and witness to the lost. 

 

In September 2012, TRM moved into 1425 Nilles Road Fairfield Ohio. The church used this location to host large events. Although they could not afford the place, they prayed that God would bless them. In the 4th Year, they moved into the facility with 15 members. Many gifts were added to the church and many auxiliaries were birth in the ministry. The anointing of Pastor White grew tremendously. In 2019 at the National Higher Ground Convention Pastor Damone White was named Bishop-Elect and was Elevated in 2021. In June of 2022, He was consecrated Bishop! God has equipped him with an effective and efficient ministry that leads to building the character of the Christian, rather than their emotions. A fervent teacher and an intense counselor, his goal is to lose his identity so that he may gain one in Christ. 

 

At our 14-year Anniversary, God used Bishop Eric McDonald to preach a powerful message and gave Total Restoration Ministries a God-given prophesy that was life-changing. After 10 years at the Niles Campus, God blessed Total Restoration Ministries with their own church building located at 235 Ross Ave. in Hamilton, Ohio. 

 

What a Mighty God we serve!!!
