Tree of Life Ministries International was established to bring the full gospel of healing and freedom to individuals and their families. Founded in July 1997 by Lois and her late husband Dale, Tree of Life Ministries has been helping and enabling people to find God’s purpose and plan for their lives.
Over the years, Dale and Lois completed many courses of study from various teachers and places, including courses on inner healing and deliverance. They have trained witnessing teams, have led prophetic training groups, and have ministered to countless people from all walks of life and around the globe. Today, the ministry is continued and led by Lois.
Lois has a passion helping others fulfill their destinies. She has a deep desire to see people come into their full potential in Jesus, be set free, healed and strengthened so they might be doers of the Word and not only hearers – as the Bible says. As the Lord has brought healing into her own life, she in turn has been privileged to see Jesus set many captives free as He ministers through her, bringing both emotional and physical healing.
For many years, the Lord has used Lois in the leadership of small groups and in personal ministry. She has taught and ministered at seminars, retreats, and speaking engagements in churches and even for other ministries. For the last 40 years, she has served in leadership positions for a large international Christian organization. Lois has traveled to and ministered in other nations while on short term mission trips, including Turkey, Denmark, Norway, Ireland, Trinidad, New Zealand, Australia, Philippines and several other Asian countries.
Having walked through an alcoholic situation in her own family, she has seen God’s deliverance and freedom from generational bondage. As a result, her heart is to see restoration in individuals and families. Her desire is to help others find God’s purpose for their lives by declaring God’s Word to all who will listen, and encouraging the body of Christ through unique and personal biblical applications. Lois ministers God’s love to those who are hurting and moves in gifts of encouragement, teaching, healing, words of knowledge, discernment and wisdom, as well as prophetic gifts and insight.
Lois has completed many trainings over the years including both basic and advanced courses from Elijah House Counseling School for Restoration of the Inner Man located near Spokane, Washington and has training in “Healing through Deliverance” given by Peter Horrobin of Ellen Ministries. She has completed the two-year Bethel Bible Series Course, has five years experience training witnessing teams using the Evangelism Explosion materials written by Dr. James Kennedy of Coral Ridge Church, and has led a prophetic group in her church for fifteen years. She is a Certified Gifts Teacher for Discover Your Gifts Ministry and is a Certified Apprentice Facilitator for “Healing the Wounds of Trauma” by the Trauma Healing Institute. Lois is also a member of Patricia King’s Women in Ministries Network and is ordained through the Independent Assemblies of God.
Lois has three children, seven grandchildren and two great grandchildren.

Isaiah 61:1-4 (NKJV)
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound. To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.”
