Donna Sparks
SALVATION | HEALING | HOLY SPIRIT
Donna Sparks is an Ordained Assemblies of God Evangelist, Spirit-led minister, author, and revivalist known for preaching the Gospel with boldness, compassion, and the undeniable power of the Holy Spirit. Through her ministry in churches, women’s conferences, revival gatherings, and prisons, she has witnessed countless lives transformed through salvation, deliverance, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and physical healing.
Her passion has always been to reach the broken, the forgotten, and those the world has counted out — declaring that no life is beyond the reach of God’s redeeming power.
ABOUT DONNA
A testimony of redemption, restoration, and the faithfulness of God
As the author of four impactful books, Donna has inspired readers around the world with her raw testimony of redemption, restoration, and the faithfulness of God through life’s deepest trials.
She ministers wherever the door opens — both nationally and internationally, for Sunday services, midweek revivals, women’s conferences, Family camps, and behind prison walls — believing that honest preaching and the presence of the Holy Spirit still change everything.
Donna is also the Founder and Director of the Fresh Fire Women’s Retreat, an annual gathering devoted to deepening women’s faith through worship, teaching, and the manifest presence of the Holy Spirit.
CARRYING HANNAH
In her own words
Losing our precious Hannah has brought a depth of pain into our lives that words simply cannot describe. We love her beyond measure, we miss her every single day, and her absence is felt in countless moments that the world will never see.
As I slowly and prayerfully return to ministry, I realize that from the outside it may appear that I am moving forward and doing well. Please know that returning does not mean the pain is gone.
I am learning to carry tremendous grief while continuing to walk in the calling God placed upon my life.
There are tears behind the sermons, difficult moments behind the smiles, and a broken heart that still misses my daughter more than I could ever express. But Hannah’s loss has also created an urgency in me that I cannot ignore. There are people sitting in churches, prisons, conferences, and communities who are hurting far more deeply than anyone around them knows — and they need to hear that God still sees them, and He is able to rescue all who call on Him.
THE MINISTRY
What Donna’s ministry includes
Every message Donna brings is built on four unchanging truths — carried from the pulpit into prisons and nations around the world.
FOUR CARDINAL DOCTRINES
Salvation
The Gospel preached plainly, with an invitation for anyone to come home to Christ.
Healing
Prayer for physical healing and for hearts worn down by loss, shame, and silence.
Baptism in the Holy Spirit
Teaching on the baptism of the Holy Spirit and making room for His presence and power to move.
The Blessed Hope
The sure promise of Christ's imminent return, coming to rescue His followers from the wrath to come.

What Hosts Are Saying
Churches, conferences, and ministries that have welcomed Donna share what happened when the Word went forth in their house.
“What a joy to have Donna speak our first 4 nights of camp 2023! We all loved her authentic candid style of speaking truth without dramatizing. So refreshing to us that she didn't need to use emotional pitches to stir up hyper faith during prayer time. I know of 2 dramatic healings that occurred but am sure there were others I didn't hear about. I was so thrilled a young mom was healed of terminal liver disease. Her love for others is so evident in her self sacrificing prayers for all who came forward no matter how long the line was. Our families went home with full hearts and new optimism to pray for others and expect to see miracles. Her teaching was so rock solid and her spirit so gentle. We just loved having her!”
“Donna represented living as a Son or Daughter of the Kingdom so beautifully. Her words and ministry flowed from her relationship as a child of God. Donna was graciously transparent with our campers, helping us prepare to negotiate the forks in the road or situations in life that we, as believers, will certainly face. Her life is a living testimony of the Love of Jesus, bringing us all to fresh wonderment of this Jesus we serve. We look forward to welcoming Donna again.”
“Rich. Real. Anointed. Every meeting I've been in with Donna Sparks has been rich, real, and anointed. Donna ministers biblical truth under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. She prays from a place of faith with the confidence of God's promises. If you have the opportunity to book her for a meeting, do it! Donna treats each speaking engagement as a gift from the Lord. She studies. She prays. She plans. She follows the leading of the Holy Spirit.”
“I am responsible for bringing in speakers for our women's retreat, and it hasn't always worked out for the best. But, this was excellent! Donna is so easy to be around, very personal, and down to earth. So many women were set free from so many things at the altar. The power of the Holy Spirit was very evident. We would definitely have her back.”
“We have been blessed to have Donna Sparks as a ministry guest a number of times in the past several years. She has ministered in both our weekend worship services as well as in conferences and other special meetings. Donna is an anointed and dynamic speaker as well as being sensitive to both the leading of God's Spirit and the needs of people. We offer our highest recommendation to you regarding the character and ministry of Evangelist Donna Sparks.”
“Donna is one of those people who is a breath of spiritual fresh air! She is anointed to share the gospel on many different levels. Donna brings deep truths from the Word of God and explains them in a very understandable manner. Her obvious love for the lost is undeniable, and her ability to communicate truth is outstanding. Looking forward to having her return someday!”
