A meeting was held June 4th, 1982 to determine if there was a committed interest in organizing a church in the S. E. Guilford area of Guilford County. There were 25 people that attended this meeting and after much prayer and consideration it was decided that the church would rent Pleasant Garden Community Center where the first service was held Sunday June 6th, 1982.
In a short business meeting following the service Brother Martin Fields and his wife Mrs. Thelma Fields generously offered the use of their basement to serve as the chapel until a permanent facility was found.
On June 27th, 1982 there was a charter service held for all who wanted to become members. There were 32 individuals who came forward and a church board was formed. Reverend D.S. Scronce came out of retirement to pastor and oversee the purchase of the property and began the building process. There were 15 acres purchased at 4914 Liberty Rd Greensboro N.C. The money was graciously donated by church members to buy the property.
In February 1983 the groundbreaking took place in the snow and people began to work. In September 1983 they left the house church and moved into the new facility at 4914 Liberty Rd.
