Phase III

By Sr. Pastor Jon Mullings |  June 1, 2007

 
Senior Pastor Jonathan Mullings and the congregation at Truth Tabernacle conducted a ceremonial ground breaking for their new educational wing on June 24, 2007. The new building will be a 28,000 square foot, two-story childrens and youth facility. It will be home to Gravity Student Ministries, Chosen Childrens Ministries, Awana International and a 108 child preschool.

 The preschool will boast its own assembly theatre, spacious classrooms, large outdoor and indoor play areas, and kitchen. Chosen Childrens Ministries and Awana will also use the building for their weekly activities which currently minister to over 200 children weekly.

 Gravity Student Ministries will occupy the second story of the new facility. It will provide a positive environment for the students of Ollivier and Stone Creek Jr. High Schools and Golden Valley High School which are all within walking distance. The Gravity Zone will be equipped with game and computer stations, game tables, dining and hang out lounge along with a 150 seat music and worship zone. Ultimate plans are to provide after school and mentoring programs and a weekend hot spot for the youth of the community.
