Our History
They started out with humble beginnings. In 2016 Edward and Christina began prayer walking the Putnam Ave. area once a week with friends. They began talking to the area residents and praying for them. They built a small community while doing these prayer walks. They then began to look for a building to be able to hold services in and came across the 807 Putnam Ave. building. The building was formerly known as Powell’s Market, an old grocery store. They were able to purchase the building with Edward’s retirement money. The building was not up to code, so they were outside in the elements in their parking lot for the first year and a half. Rain, snow, or sleet they never missed a Sunday service. They would be outside faithfully, sharing Jesus, love and food to the area residents. They would set up folding chairs in their parking lot so people could sit and hear music, Bible teachings, and eat. Currently, the building is up to code, and they have various programs they do out of their building. From feeding the hungry, to providing job transportation to the area residents and homeless, they are making a difference.
