Violet Glory is an unconventional ministry that does not believe in hindering protocol and rituals that prevent people from hearing the true voice of God. We believe everyone has a true song in their heart as individual as your fingerprints. We desire to understand and to bring healing to the hurting areas in people’s lives. Finally. we love laughter since scripture states that laughter is as medicine to the soul.
