2017
September 22, 2017 is “birth” day. Months of prayer, worship, fasting, and believing culminated into FNL being birthed during Rosh Hashanah.
Some of the people who joined us then, have gone on to help advance the kingdom in other venues. However, the heart and soul of “DAY ONE” is still here today and remains into the future.
2018-2019
Friday Night Light began to draw people from all denominations and in 2019, The Barn Church was born on the property.
2020-2024
2020 brought us from the Barn into renting a space in a Methodist Church building, back to the Barn property, then into tents, then back into the Barn until early 2022.
During a critical time in early Spring of 2022, we were blessed to move the entire ministry from the Barn property to a location on the corner of M139 and Niles Rd. Ground Zero Archery opened their doors and gave us a space to hold services as we also rented office space to help make the next couple years home.
JULY 2024
After years long search and having the faith for something greater than what we could ask, think, or imagine, we settled onto our new home situated on 330+ acres of land in Eau Claire/Dowagiac Michigan.
This new home will be a destination for all churches and denominations as we continue to build on the foundation of what GOD has done. Home is where the heart is and our heart is in Heaven.
We invite you to come and be a part of what GOD is doing in the region.
