SoCal SSM

About Us

The Southern California School of Supernatural Ministry (SoCal SSM) is a cross-denominational, regional school that offers a wide variety of programs to take you deeper and further in your walk with God. You can take our year-long program in the School of Supernatural Ministry for 1, 2, or 3 years. Each year progressively develops your walk with God, with others, and your calling and destiny.

SoCal SSM launched in August 2015 on the Venture Center campus in Pasadena, California. We are a Bethel-style school, under the direction of Christeena Kale in partnership with Global Celebration, Pasadena International House of Prayer (PIHOP), Frontier Ventures (previously known as the US Center for World Missions), and Ekballo Pasadena.

Our student body represents approximately 30 local churches from a variety of denominations. We have received the students of both Bethel SSM, HRock SSM and PIHOP SSM into our 2nd year program and alumni.

Our staff includes graduates from Bethel SSM, HRock SSM, PIHOP SSM, Frontier Ventures, IHOPU, and E58 School of Ministry. Our staff also includes pastors from five local churches. We have a passion for unity in the body of Christ and we choose to pursue the Kingdom together!

James Peddie

Having witnessed the complete healing and restoration of a young woman who had died in a motorcycle accident, James devoted his life to knowing the God who is able to work such incredible miracles. James has had a fruitful ministry of discipling and coaching many people on how to walk in their calling and spiritual gifting. He has ministered in the states and internationally, and was influential in the events that led to the IHOPU Student Awakening in 2009.
