We want to see this project finished in the shortest period possible. We are therefore appealing to all GOD fearing people around the world to donate to this important GOD’s work.
 When completed the church will accommodate 18,000 seated people. And our dear children will worship under a roof without fear of the rain or the tropical sun.
 Many people will now come to church as there will be enough space to accommodate all including those who were not coming to church.
The Lord has given us many resources. It is up to us to share it and meet the needs of our church, brethren, and community. We are praying for funds to come in order to make this dream possible and follow our motto, “Both riches and honor come from God” and “When God makes it happen… we make it happen”.
