(The information below was written before the wall was built around the future church property. The wall was completed in early June of 2008.) Originally we intended to put everything in one place. But, two years later, we realized that this was not possible. So the vision was broadened. We then bought 7 acres for the Bible College. In 2006, with the challenge from a brother in Cincinnati (Bill Fudge), we realized that we needed a larger site for the Church building. Then we started to pray. Less than a week later, a good friend of Living Water informed us about a piece of land, very close to our present campus, that he knew was for sale. We went back to prayer again and started multiplying the contacts. In every step of the way, God showed us that it was His will for us to have this land. But the obstacles were major because there were other people who wanted to buy the same land and there was a hoard of land robbers who wanted to steal it as well. The owner made up her mind that she would sell it to us. Then, came the challenge of the money. Praise God. With the hard work of the brothers and sisters of Kenai Christian Church and several other brothers and sisters throughout the States, we were able to come up, in a very short time, with the huge sum of money that we needed for the land. So we paid it off. But the battle was not over. For the bandits, who had on their side lawyers and justices, for a while caused us much pain. Again, the Word of God proves to be true: "If God is for us who can stand against us," "The Lord will fight for you, and you, be still." They have threaten our lives, used all kinds of scare tactics, yet we did not budge. Today, these same guys are being wanted to be put in jail for various other things that they have done. We thank God for this victory among others. Today, we need funds to build the wall around that land and to build the Church building which will be able to seat a couple of thousand of people. We believe our big God will do it for us. He has proved to be faithful all the time. Join us in this effort. Click on the images to see a larger picture.
