Born in Seattle, Washington, she was a daughter of the late Cloyed Still and Renee Still. Prophetess Joyce Still Manzi had many titles Prophetess, Apostle, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher, however she never liked titles and always called herself a Handmaiden.

She started many churches in several countries and in the United States. Everywhere she went she was loved by so many and she loved them as well, they all became her children so she came to have a very large extended family. During her work in the Ministry some of the awards that she received were the Key to the State of Kentucky, the Commissions of Colonel & Admiral of Kentucky, an honorarium from the Boston, MA Police Dept. as well as from the New York Police Dept. and the Dallas, TX Police Dept.
