The
Full Gospel COGIC Story (Continued)
|
|||||
|
Across
the years renovations have been made and additional land and buildings
have been purchased. Most recently, under
|
|||||
|
the guidance of the late Brother Walter
Meeks and the men and women of Full Gospel, we were able to bring to fruition
the
|
|||||
|
vision
of an elegant sanctuary with new furnishings. These renovations answer
the need for a multi-purpose facility
|
|||||
| where weddings, banquets, and other fellowships are held in an atmosphere of utmost elegance. | |||||
| We were chosen as one of America's best churches. Writer and researcher Paul Wilkes searched the nation to find | |||||
| exemplary churches. Churches in which congregants come together not only for worship, but also to impact the | |||||
| community in which they live. Wilkes says he found seventeen. One of them is Full Gospel Church Of God In Christ, | |||||
| pastored by Bishop Chrales Brown. Wilkes says "he knew within minutes of stepping inside, this church was special". | |||||
| Differing, boiling with energy, alive with hospitality, passionate about living the Good News". "This is a place where | |||||
| sinners are welcome and God is hanging out", he said. Full Gospel was used as an example when pastors and church | |||||
| administrators from all over the country came to New Orleans for a three day Pastoral Summit on what makes churches | |||||
| great. | |||||
| In July 2001, we witnessed the Consecration of our leader, Bishop Charles E. Brown, as Auxiliary Bishop of the Church | |||||
| of God In Christ. Bishop Charles Brown also serves as Assistant Bishop to his uncle, Bishop Lindell B. Brown of the | |||||
| Greater New Orleans Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of Louisiana. This event marked a history making moment where uncle | |||||
| and nephew were consecrated in a dual ceremony of the Church Of God In Christ. There were leaders and individuals | |||||
| from all denominations and organizations who decided not to miss this grand occasion. | |||||
| Also in July 2001, the Full Gospel Night Out Against Crime was recognized as Number One in the nation and Bishop | |||||
| Brown received a special award that is only given to law enforcement personnel. Bishop Brown is the only civilian to | |||||
| receive this award. | |||||
| And the testimonies of abundance continue. Full Gospel was the recipient of the Golden Hammer Award given by | |||||
| Mayor Marc Morial to churches that are making a difference in the city. .. read more | |||||
