She was an ordained Prophetess and Evangelist of Jesus Christ and was always in demand for establishing and laying foundational teaching in new ministries, coordinating conferences and workshops.  She was an anointed and appointed woman of valor who joined the Pentecostal Miracle Deliverance Center (PMDC) in the early 70's and assisted Apostle Dr. Idell Cheever build the awesome work of Pentecostal Miracle Deliverance Center (PMDC). As an administrator for the ministry, she organized numerous projects and effectively oversaw their respective success of them all. She also served as Apostle Cheever's personal nurse during her inception into this ministry.  Dr. Eady was the legs and feet for our Apostle Idell Cheever. Any time the Lord had spoken to Apostle Cheever regarding the work of the ministry, Dr. Eady set herself in motion to accomplish every mission.  Apostle Cheever spoke highly of Dr. Eady.  Dr. Eady created PMDC's Layout and Design Department, assisted in the production of the radio-tape broadcast; was the radio announcer;  helped in purchasing camera equipment in order to produce in-house production; hosted our weekly broadcast; and  was the Vice President of (WOTFL) and the original  designer of our Woman on the Frontline Logo.  She assisted with the launching of the Miracles of Deliverance Bible Institute (accredited through Jacksonville Theological Seminary).   Dr. Eady also loved the youth of PMDC and their passion for the word of God.

She was an awesome Pastor in Jesup and Brunswick GA as well as Burton, SC., her home town. She was a dynamic preacher. One could call her "A Preacher's Preacher"! She was ordained as Pentecostal Miracle Deliverance International Evangelist in the 80's. Geraldine Eady was an ordained Minister, Teacher, Evangelist, Pastor, Prophetess, and often called an Apostle. She was also PMDC 's South District Overseer.  Surely she fulfilled every one of these offices.  Dr. Eady departed from the Pentecostal Miracle Deliverance Center, Inc. in 2002 and began her own ministry. Prophetess Geraldine Eady was a lover of people and would give the warmest hugs. Prophetess Eady was loved immensely by her Spiritual Mother; Apostle Dr. Idell Cheever.
