After God called Doug & Donna Lowery into a new itinerant ministry in August of 1998, (following twenty-three years in the pastorate) the Lord gave Doug the idea of having several different ministries. The "Heart Lifting Ministries" name came easy for Doug, for Faith Baptist Church in Corona, Queens (their first ministry) was nicknamed, "The Church with a Heart in the Heart of Queens," and their songbook and CD are titled, "Songs to Lift the Heart."  Since entering this new, itinerant ministry in September of 2002, the Lowerys have ministered in 38 states in over 300 churches and have been in many of those same churches multiple times.
