The Vision for Making the Turn Ministries

Men and women living free from sin, through Jesus Christ, who are growing in their faith and learning to live a disciplined life according to the scriptures.

Ricky Lester, vice president of Making the Turn Ministries (pictured on the left) has had a burden for drug and alcohol rehabilitation for over 14 years due to his own journey through drug addiction and prison. Ricky Lester was saved by Jesus Christ from a life of drug addiction and now serves as a pastor in Seneca, SC alongside his wife and two children. Ricky Lester’s entire family are saved and serve the Lord. Ricky Lester met the president, Kyle Preskitt, about 17 years ago at a youth camp when both of their children were babies.

Last year in 2023, the president, Kyle Preskitt, moved from Virginia to South Carolina and took the pastor of the church in Westminster called Rider Mountain PFB Holiness Church. Little did they both know that their vision would become a reality in Making the Turn Ministries, Inc. We are both excited to see and be a part of the many miracles that Jesus will do in reproducing what has already been done for us and our families. May God richly bless all those who partner with us to help others Make the Turn and turn to Jesus.
