MOTTO
Our Staff Against theWorld:
The WORD OF GOD
Through the leadership of the Holy Ghost, in the Spring of 1988, New Jerusalem Church of God was founded by Pastor Edward J. Young with about three families (Brown, Ivory and Hill) supporting the church with their money, time, and love for God. Church services were held and rotated in the homes of two families for about three months. In the Summer of 1988, the Lord led the Pastor to a store front at 545 Rowlett Road in Garland, Texas. God was praised and worshipped in the store front from 1988 until 1992. In 1992, when the devil tried to block the church next move, the Lord opened and touched the Bank President's heart. God made away for the purchase of the property where the church currently resides: 4906 Gatewood Road, Garland, Texas.
Every door the devil tried to close, the Lord kicked it down and every wall he tried to build, the Lord blew it up. Every time the devil got in the middle of the road and tried to block Pastor's way, he became a part of the road. Through great faith and humility, Pastor would not stop. Pastor believed "greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world."
All along the way, many lives have been changed, souls saved and backsliders were brought back to God through this ministry that was established by God.
Many have left and many have stayed to continue supporting the work of God, especially our young people, who have contributed their time and money to the work. Thank you for allowing God to use you in the work of God.
From the houses to the store front to our current building, we can find our way to Zion because of our Leader's faithfulness and true dedication to God.
