Bishop Dag Heward-Mills has been very involved in building multiple establishments over the years. One of the most notable features of Lighthouse Chapel International is the rapid production of building projects in several countries 〔http://www.lighthousechapel.org〕/. The church currently has multiple church building projects, embracing the vision of 25,000 churches in 150 countries to invite more souls to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. There is currently over 400 physical church buildings including the Qodesh headquarters in Ghana (this multi-structured building is now one of the largest church complexes in Africa 〔http://www.modernghana.com/news/354475/1/ghanas-richest-pastors.html〕); a hospital, an orphanage and numerous schools. ==Lighthouse Chapel International== Heward-Mills founded the Lighthouse Chapel International church in 1987. Heward-Mills often states that God placed upon him the anointing to teach, and that led him to begin holding meetings in a classroom on his university campus that accommodated just a handful of people. As attendance steadily increased, larger and larger halls had to be used. In 1994, the church constructed a 3000-seater cathedral in Accra. However the congregation grew until finally, in 2006, he commissioned the construction of the one of the largest church complexes in Africa. Currently, attendance at his meetings have exceeded the capacity of this huge structure. Over the years Dag Heward-Mills’ also indoctrinated and inspired many of his members to become missionaries, pastors and workers to help build the denomination into an internationally reputable ministry. From the humble beginnings of meetings in a small classroom, there has certainly been astounding growth that continues to spread. Dag Heward-Mills has since planted over 2000 churches in 68 different countries worldwide. The Lighthouse Chapel International denomination has both acquired and built multiple buildings, including the Qodesh – its international headquarters. The Qodesh is one of the largest, ultramodern complexes in Africa. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dag Heward-Mills」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
