About Us - History
God gave a vision to our Pastor at age of 22 to one day return to his home county and plant a new church. After a little more than ten years of training and waiting on the Lord, the time to respond to the Lord had arrived.
Pastor Terry and his family returned to Cabarrus County from Texas in September of 1990. The next several months involved raising $50,000 of support for the first year from sponsoring churches, enlisting 125 phone volunteers for a telemarketing campaign, and finding a place of worship.
In January of 1991, during the outbreak of the Persian Gulf War, 20,751 calls were made to find people who were not part of any church. Over 2,000 families responded favorably. Five mail pieces were sent out each week before the opening Sunday on March 24, 1991 (Palm Sunday) in a rented movie theatre. People were ready with banners, refreshments, a welcome center, Bible study classes, and worship. Over 225 showed up the first day! West Cabarrus Church was up and running. Our Pastor received the "Church Planter of the Year" award in 1991 for this accomplishment. In 1996 we relocated to a local elementary school. December of 1999, we moved into a multi-purpose building on our current 58-acre campus on Speedway Boulevard.
Today, the church has a full spectrum of ministries and many believe God has provided a strategic location for a ministry to reach the ever-growing population of our region. |
