Pastor Kirk Caldwell was born April 28, 1966 to Linda Caldwell and Richard Benton. Pastor Caldwell is the fourth-born of six children. He is was raised and lived most of his life in Philadelphia, PA. He attended Sartain Elementary School, Strawberry Mansion Junior High School and then Benjamin Franklin High School where he graduated in 1984.
He furthered his education at Delaware Valley School of Trades where he studied Plumbing and Heating. He graduated in 1985. After completing his education there, Pastor Caldwell studied as an apprentice under a Master Plumber for four years.
After working in numerous occupations, Pastor Caldwell decided to start his own company in 2005, calling it Do It Right Drains & General Contracting. He has been in business for more than 20 years and God has sustained him since. Pastor Caldwell was saved at the tender age of 15 years old and became a member of Zion Tabernacle Church of Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith in Philadelphia, PA under the leadership of the late Bishop John H. Smalls, a story in which he reverts to time and time again.
While at Zion, Pastor Caldwell became a vital member in that he brought and mentored many young people to the church and ultimately helped them receive Salvation while becoming Co-Assistant Pastor and serving on many auxiliaries in the church, becoming a pillar for Zion Tabernacle.
Pastor Caldwell met his wife, Sharron, while serving there. They later married May 13, 1988. They had their first child, Jordan, that year as well. Following Jordan, Pastor Caldwell and his wife had their other three children: Justin, Julian, and Ashley. Some time after, Pastor and First Lady Caldwell moved from Zion Tabernacle after serving 14 years and began fellowshipping with Christ HavenPentecostal Church in Darby, PA under the leadership of Bishop William F. Todd, Sr. Shortly after becoming members, Pastor Caldwell and his family moved to Darby, PA and served 13 years at Christ Haven.
While serving there, they had their other three children: Jamar, Amber, and Alicia. They also took on the responsibility of raising two additional family members, Shane and Jonathan, before he and his wife became the first Youth Pastor. Pastor and First Lady Caldwell have always opened their home to others, especially young people and as a result, many were guided to the straight and narrow, graduated from High School, attended trade schools and went on to become successful in their lives. Pastor and First Lady Caldwell held that position for two years before Pastor Caldwell was commissioned by God to begin his own ministry in 2005. After accepting the call from God, Pastor Caldwell and his family transitioned to this ministry and under the consultation of God named it, Endtime Harvest Ministries for Christ, Inc.
Pastor Caldwell’s favorite scripture is Acts 26:22, “Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day witnessing, both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come,” where he states, it has been his experience throughout his spiritual walk that Christ has always been his help
Pastor Caldwell’s motto is “love God, love others, and love yourself; serve God, serve others, and serve yourself.”
