APOSTLE
DIONNE SMITH
Â
Dionne Smith is a distinguished prophetic and apostolic voice in Canada, recognized for her unwavering commitment to equipping and empowering prophets in Canada and abroad and calling churches to embrace the prophetic voices back into the church. Born in England and raised in Canada, Dionne has experienced a life marked by supernatural encounters with God, which have shaped her into a catalyst in the prophetic movement. From an early age, she exhibited a unique sensitivity to the Holy Spirit’s leading, coupled with a profound ability to discern the hearts and minds of others—gifts she would later recognize as the prophetic.
At the age of 15, Dionne’s life was dramatically transformed when she accepted Christ under the ministry of Dr. Morris Cerullo, experiencing a miraculous healing from severe dyslexia. This encounter ignited her prophetic gift, where dreams, visions, became daily occurrences. Despite the nature of these experiences, Dionne initially kept them hidden, because many around her did not understand the depth of her prophetic gift.
In 2018, led by the Holy Spirit, Dionne began a prayer movement from her home, which quickly grew into a national force across Canada. This movement laid the foundation for the establishment of Ruach Church in Calgary in January 2021, a vibrant community where the prophetic is honored and nurtured. As the founder and apostle of Ruach Church, Dionne has expanded her influence by founding the DAS Prophetic Training Centre in Calgary. The centre serves as a training ground for prophets across Canada and abroad.
Dionne’s inspiring book, Am I Among the Prophets?, serves as a powerful testament to her journey and the prophetic call on her life. In this book, she shares the process of recognizing and embracing the prophetic voice within her, as well as the challenges and responsibilities that come with it. The book is a compelling invitation to step into a deeper relationship with God and understand the critical role prophets play in advancing God’s kingdom.
Dionne’s vision extends beyond her own ministry to the entire nation of Canada. She believes that Canada’s prophetic voices have been overlooked, but now, in this pivotal moment, God is calling them to rise, speak, and shift the course of the nation as it prepares for Christ’s return. Dionne serves as the apostle overseeing Ruach Churches in multiple provinces, including Manitoba, Ontario, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, where she continues to guide and release prophetic ministries across the nation. Dionne continues to inspire and empower the next generation of prophetic leaders, ensuring that God’s voice is heard throughout Canada.
Dionne’s ministry is characterized by a deep reverence for God’s Word, a passionate commitment to the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and a heart to see the Church fulfill its prophetic destiny. She is not only a spiritual leader but also a mentor and teacher, dedicated to helping others recognize and step into their divine calling as prophets. Through her work, she is fostering a prophetic awakening that is shaping the future for prophets and the Church in Canada and beyond.
