From Growth to Glory 🕊️

Reverend Israel Dudley shares a powerful word of witness at the Gathering Place, celebrating his sister, Minister in Training Sparkle Dudley’s trial sermon. Watching her transformation, from where she used to be to where she stands today, is proof that God is still moving.

A special thank you to Archbishop Alvarez for mentoring her with a good heart and pouring into her purpose. This is what family in faith looks like.

Staying Connected, Bearing Fruit 🍎

It was a powerful day at the Cathedral at the Gathering Place. One year after her own baptism on August 31st, Minister in training Sparkle Dudley watched her baby get baptized in the same waters. The message was on abiding in Christ, the Great I Am, and what it means to stay connected to the vine. This baptism was living proof of that word in action.
