Purpose of Dunamis Tabernacle

The Dunamis Tabernacle Worship Center will be a non-denominational, multi-purpose/multi-function facility designed to meet the needs of the Body of Christ, the local Church family and the surrounding community.

The purpose of the Dunamis Tabernacle is not to be a physical tribute to God or man. Open 24 hours a day, it will be a place for discipleship, service, and doing God's work. In addition to helping raise ministers of the Gospel internationally, Dunamis Tabernacle will also have a worship center that addresses the needs of our local community by providing shelters for the homeless and battered women, on-site daycare, job training resources, and other much needed services. 

A Women’s Shelter 

The Refuge will be staffed by individuals trained in counseling those who have been emotionally wounded and require immediate attention and relief from high stress situations. 

This ministry will care for unwed mothers of all ages who have no one to care for them and no resources available. We will provide shelter for battered women on a walk-in basis or as referred by organizations which care for physically, emotionally, or psychologically abused women. Through the ministry, transportation will be provided for expectant mothers to doctor’s appointments, birthing classes, etc.  Transportation will also be provided for those who require medical treatment, legal counsel or assistance to and from a place of employment. Additionally, the program will act as an intermediary between the counselee and other local, state, and federal agencies.

The Dove's Nest program is designed to provide daycare for children, especially catering to low income and single parent households. When possible, expenses for daycare and pre-school will be offset by donations and charitable contributions.

The program will be staffed by individuals who have been trained and licensed by the State of Georgia. The Director's office is staffed by individuals with a degree in Early Childhood Development. The Dove’s Nest will also function as a referral service for those needing counseling in nutrition, child health or financial aid.

This ministry’s mission is to give every teen a chance to develop good study habits, a strong work ethic, and a sound mind, body & spirit.  Designed to assist young adults, parents, and educators in developing well-rounded, socially responsible adults who have character, confidence, and a sense of belonging  and fellowship.

Develop/Increase Marketable Job Skills

As a part of our “whole person” approach to ministry, we recognize that one of our responsibilities is to train those for whom we care in all facets of life. 

The Job Training program will give individuals a chance to increase skills or enter into the job market for the first time. Through tuition assistance, guidance counseling and other services, we will help transition individuals into a more productive pattern of living. 

Programs such as secretarial work, automotive repair, computer training, and construction will be the initial focuses. We will work hand-in-hand with Atlanta’s schools, technical institutions and volunteer professionals to impact the community through a reduction in illiteracy and crime and an increase in productive members of the community.  Corporate sponsorship and individual support for this effort will be used for training, classroom space, hiring qualified staff, purchasing computers, and other materials needed to train and counsel those enlisted in the program.
