CHURCH HISTORY

Lighthouse Gospel Ministries

Church History

Past to Present

2000 – 2011



Lighthouse Gospel Ministries held its first service Sunday morning, October 1, 2000 and we are still growing strong “In the Lord!”

October 1, 2000 – January 2003

Lighthouse was housed in the home of the Pastor. The members of the church met faithfully in the Pastor’s basement, which was set up just like a sanctuary. It was finished with a main sanctuary, fellowship hall, Sunday school room, overflow room, and the Pastor’s Study. However, it just was not big enough to hold the vision that God had instilled into Pastor Johnson.

Thus, from
January 26, 2003 – October 2005

Lighthouse Gospel moved across the street from the Pastor’s home into a two-unit storefront facility. While at that facility, God continued to increase the ministry and by the end of October 2005 God told Pastor it is time to “grow again.” As a result, Lighthouse began its search for a larger facility in which to house the members and the vision he had placed within our Pastor.

So, from
November 6, 2005 – December 31, 2005

Lighthouse Gospel Ministries had a stomping good time in a local hotel’s conference room while awaiting the completion of our new facility.

Furthermore, from
January 8, 2006 – November 1, 2009

Once completed, we really enjoyed serving and worshipping God at 1345 McDonough Parkway. It was a joy and a pleasure watching our ministry grow as we reached out to the community. One thing for sure, LGM never lost sight of our true purpose of serving the lord.

And, from
November 1, 2009 – Present

Lighthouse has been reviving and celebrating all that the Lord has brought us and has taken us through. 70 Dailey Mills Road, will not be Lighthouse Gospel Ministries’ last Praising Ground. We are definitely and without a doubt, looking forward to what God is going to do with Lighthouse Gospel Ministries, for we know that God has placed an international vision of growth within our Pastor, Pastor Johnson.

And at this time,
September 30th, 2011, & October 2nd, 2011

Pastor and First Lady Johnson would like to thank the members for staying supportive to the vision and steadfast as we continue to grow into what God desires of the ministry. And we pray to see you there at the new location! To you, our dear friends, thank you for supporting us and for being there for us each time we called.
