Who is C.L.O.S.E?

C.L.O.S.E. Ministries; is a Christ-centered fellowship which is based on the truth that Christ’s Love Offers Salvation to Everyone.

During our fellowship we seek a deeper relationship with God as we study His Word together. We eagerly share God’s truth with close family and friends throughout the country and overseas.

Rozette Fleming wants to serve the Lord in a meaningful way. Grounded firmly in John 20:21 when Jesus Said to the Disciples: “Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you”, she sought the Lord in continuous prayer and the answer came with a clear understanding of this scripture; which we call “The Great Commission.”

A simple thought seemed repeatedly planted in her heart: ‘Start close’. It was soon apparent to her that sharing God’s truth with close family was where she was to begin.

With family widespread across both the Middle East and the United States, Rozette began to share the amazing truth about Christ and what He is doing in her life. Soon this lead into weekly conference calls with members hungering to learn more about God and His Word.

Rozette sourced and prepared studies from solid reliable biblical teachers, the resources from which she herself was learning and growing. Close family ministry expanded to include friends and friends of friends who are hungering for the truth of God’s Word.

In the course of learning from these studies and growing in her faith, Rozette found herself utilizing her counseling skills to support and help those who are going through a life challenge. Rozette holds an undergraduate degree in psychology with counseling skills, and is a certified mediator in dispute resolution for legal and family matters. Rozette was becoming increasingly aware of the need for Christian counseling that was Bible based. Therefore, she began training to become a biblical counselor through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC). Rozette received her fundamentals training certificate and is currently in phase two of the ACBC certification process.

God lead Rozette through an amazing journey of healing and growth, and through His guidance she founded C.L.O.S.E. Ministries and began Close Biblical counseling to help individuals and families learn what God’s word tells us about relationships with each other, ourselves, and our walk with Christ.

Rozette is a great listener, compassionate, hard working and always eager to help. She loves to read, walk and enjoys painting and cooking. She adopts the scripture in Ephesians 4:26, “… Do not let the sun go down on your anger”, as her life’s precept.

“As a biblical counselor, there is no greater source to seek than our Creator’s words in realizing a joyful, peace-filled life. There is victory and wisdom in seeking His will for our lives. The Bible is the living Word of God which holds every answer and guidance to every situation or hardship we face in life.”
