Where We Have Come From

Dawn Ministries was founded by Dr. James Montgomery in 1985. The word "DAWN" is an acronym for "Discipling A Whole Nation." It is a strategy of ministry developed in terms of our Lord's command to "make disciples of all nations." It takes literally the idea that the Lord wants nations to be discipled.
