Bishop Hayes was consecrated to the bishopric in September of 2008 and served as Senior Bishop of the Pentecostal Deliverance Fellowship Network of Churches (P.D.F.) under the leadership of Dr. Julia Harris, presiding prelate. While serving in the P.D.F. Bishop Hayes began to receive Pastors that had a passion for the Kingdom of God under his local ministry. These pastors began to reach out for help and guidance that they may fulfill the call of God on their life. After pouring into these pastors lives, God gave Bishop Hayes another mandate to fulfill. God gave Bishop Hayes vision concerning empowering and educating pastors and leaders on covenant relationships. He began to share with pastors that were under his covering, what the Lord shared with him and they were excited. Bishop Hayes called the entire covenant ministries together and made covenant with them and they formed True Covenant Fellowship of Ministries. October 8th 2009 was the first official gathering of the TCFM. Currently Bishop Willie Hayes Jr. serves as Presiding Prelate of the True Covenant Fellowship of Ministries.
