A self-paced, online music & worship school based in Murrieta, California

“Training up worship teams that know the flow of the Word & the Spirit.”

About the Worship School

World Harvest Worship School (WHWS) is a part-time school developed to train worship teams in the flow of the Word and the Spirit. Nancy Dufresne’s spiritual father, Kenneth E. Hagin, said, “What is God doing in these last and final days? He is raising up strong local churches that know how to move with the Word and the Spirit.”

WHWS is designed to help the singer, songwriter, and musician to become more skillful in their craft, as well as to grow in the things of the Spirit, so they can bring a greater supply to their pastor, their local church, and to the Body of Christ in this end-time era.

David Ellis, Reba Rambo, Tony Jones II, and other instructors bring years of skill and wisdom to the students to accelerate their growth and development. Their practical instruction, as well as the revelation they carry, is for the edification of the Body of Christ to bring us into everything that God has prepared for this era!

Meet the Instructors

Nancy Dufresne | President

Nancy Dufresne has been in the ministry for over 40 years. She pastored World Harvest Church in Murrieta, California, for 25 years and now travels nationwide and abroad ministering in other churches, as well as conducting her own Miracle Crusades. 

She is the president of Dufresne Ministries, as well as the president of World Harvest Bible Training Center, a full-time Bible school located in Murrieta, California. Nancy Dufresne is also the president of Fresh Oil Fellowship, a ministerial organization. She continues to fulfill her divine assignment with her sons, Stephen and Grant, and her daughter-in-law, Morgan, serving alongside her in the ministry. 

A respected author, Nancy Dufresne has written numerous books that instruct believers how to live in the victory that belongs to them. She also has a television broadcast called Jesus the Healer, which currently airs on various networks, including a daily broadcast on the Victory Channel. 

Nancy Dufresne is known for her simple, clear teaching of God’s Word that helps people walk in the abundant life that Jesus has provided for them. In addition, there is a strong flow of the gifts of the Spirit in her ministry. 

In this end-time era, Nancy Dufresne continues to emphasize moving with the Word and the Spirit. 

David Ellis | Instructor

David Ellis was born into a ministry family and trained in music from an early age by his father – a Church of God pastor, world-class pianist, and prolific songwriter. His musical training was the result of a divine instruction. Before David’s birth, his mother was visited by an angel who said, “The baby you carry is a boy. Name him David. He carries a gift for the prophets of the last days. He will play the piano, and they will prophesy.”

By the age of 13, David was serving as his church’s pianist. By 15, he was leading the choir and vocal ensembles. His supernatural gifting and deep love for music quickly opened doors for him to work in recording studios and later to travel the country, leading worship and preaching the Gospel.

David’s ministry was shaped by the influence of many iconic gospel singers, musicians, and faith preachers, including Nancy Harmon, Phil Driscoll, Mark and Janet Brazee, Billye Brim and Benny Hinn. His early roots in the Church of God – a denomination known for raising up and equipping skilled young musicians – instilled in him a lifelong love for the local church.

From 1980 to 1988, David served as music director at one of Florida’s fastest-growing churches, further developing his heart for local church ministry. A nationally awarded pianist, he earned top honors five consecutive years and was named in Who’s Who in Music.

In 2000, David moved to Murrieta, California, where he founded West Coast Life Church and served as lead pastor for thirteen years. A pivotal moment came in 1993 when he began playing for Kenneth Copeland, which significantly deepened the prophetic musical anointing on his life. Since 2017, David has served as music director for Kenneth Copeland Ministries and continues to minister alongside Brother Copeland across the globe.

Today, David regularly sings, plays piano, and leads worship at many of Nancy Dufresne’s meetings, both in the U.S. and internationally. He carries a deep understanding of how music connects Heaven to earth and believes that true worship is a sound first heard in Heaven and released through anointed musicians to usher in God’s glory.

David’s passion is to raise up and equip this generation of worship leaders, training them to facilitate the flow of the Word and the Spirit in these last days.

Reba Rambo | Instructor

Since 1964, Reba has been traveling the world, ministering the Gospel of Jesus Christ. She joined her parents, Buck and Dottie Rambo, at the age of 12, becoming an integral part of their group, The Singing Rambos.  

When she was 15 years old, she became a solo artist, recording folk music with a Gospel message. As Reba grew up, she had the privilege of singing with Mylon LeFevre, The Imperials, and others. She toured with Andraé Crouch & The Disciples for nearly two years, which revolutionized her life and music!  

Reba has not only ministered in churches across denominational barriers, but also in many other settings. She has written musicals, ministered on college campuses, and performed at the Grammy Awards.  

Reba is a skillful composer of songs and enjoys teaching others how to write songs. Many of her compositions have been recorded by Ron Kenoly, Sandi Patty, Amy Grant, Judy Jacobs, the Gaither Vocal Band, David and Nicole Binion, and countless others.  

She told The Tennessean in 1980, “We work on the basis that God is love,” and her intention has not changed. “God is love, and I’m His child, so my intrinsic DNA is love,” she says today. “I’m learning daily that His love in me is unconditional and infinite.” 

She seeks to share and, most importantly, be the love of God to everyone she encounters. As she enters her 60th year of ministry, she says, “I am overwhelmed by the goodness of God throughout my entire journey. I’m so excited about the future. I feel like I’m just getting started, and the greatest adventures are ahead!” 

Tony Jones II | Instructor

Tony Jones II was raised in a musical family. His father and mentor, Rev. Tony Jones, was the Minister of Music in their local church, the Church of God by Faith, in Rochester, New York. Tony started playing drums around the age of five and began playing piano in church at the age of eight. Throughout that time, he was learning music and the flow of the Spirit simultaneously.   

When he was 19, he moved to Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, to attend Rhema Bible Training Center. He began playing organ in Rhema’s Prayer School. Shortly after, he was asked to join the Rhema Singers & Band (RS&B). RS&B traveled with Kenneth E. Hagin, whom they lovingly called “Dad Hagin.” Tony traveled with them for two years, up until the time that Dad Hagin went home to be with the Lord in September of 2003.   

After Bible school, Tony and his wife, Rachelle, moved to Ohio, where he served as Music Director for Pastor Michael Cameneti at Faith Family Church from 2004-2011. 

In 2011, the Lord led them to move to Murrieta, California, where he became Music Director for Dr. Ed & Pastor Nancy Dufresne at World Harvest Church.    

Through his ministry experiences, Tony has become skillful in flowing with the anointing that comes from the different fivefold ministry offices, but particularly the prophet’s office. He has played the organ for Dr. Ed & Pastor Nancy Dufresne, Kenneth Copeland, Mark Hankins, and many other prominent ministers and singers. Currently, he is the Music Director for World Harvest Church and travels with Nancy Dufresne, playing organ at her crusades, nationally and abroad. He is also the Media Administrator for Dufresne Ministries and an Instructor for the Internship Class at World Harvest Bible Training Center.    

Tony desires to bring a supply to the Body of Christ in flowing with the Word and the Spirit in this era and to help raise up the next generation of musicians to do the same in their local church.
