Our Mission & Tenants

Discover Christ

Encounter His person and presence — we begin not with religion, but with revelation. Discovery is awakening to who Christ is and allowing His presence to transform our hearts

Learn and Grow

Be rooted and built up in truth — discipleship strengthens our foundation. We grow as we are taught the Word, shaped by truth, and established in faith and thanksgiving.

Become and soar

Live sent and fulfill divine purpose — becoming is transformation; soaring is movement. God renews our strength so we can walk boldly in purpose and rise in maturity.

At Yarah Apostolic Assembly, we exist to build a people who truly become the Church rooted in Christ, renewed by His Spirit, and released to reveal His Kingdom.

We are committed to making mature disciples through the Word, cultivating strength in Christian identity, forming authentic community, and commissioning believers to live sent in their God-given purpose.
Matthew 28:19–20 | Ephesians 4:12 | Colossians 2:6–7

How we fulfill the mandate

Healing & Deliverance: Isaiah 61:1 — “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.”
Authentic Worship: John 4:23–24 — “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
Community Engagement: Acts 2:44–46 — “Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, and sold their possessions and goods, and divided them among all, as anyone had need. So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart.”
Discipleship & Empowerment: 2 Timothy 2:2 — “And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”
Presence & Purpose: Exodus 33:14 — “And He said, ‘My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.’”
Inclusivity: Romans 15:7 — “Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God.”

Our Leader

Richard Gunn is a Cleveland OH native, who has over 10 years in ministry. His background is in Baptist doctrine, and that foundation has governed his delivery of Christ gospel though there are some new flares. At the age of 16 Pastor Gunn received the call to preach the gospel at Second Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church where during one service after weeks of asking God for more of his spirit, Pastor Gunn received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues.

Though Overseer Gunn believes in the fullness of Christ's spiritual gifts in his church, he believes in strong teaching, equipping believers and imparting wisdom. He believes in following the bible and the Lord has championed a strong and respected teaching ministry through him. Overseer Gunn has traveled many places, and has governed at all levels of Pastoral leadership.
