The vision of Rhema Christian Center is to establish a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, economically and socially diverse community of believers in Jesus Christ, equipped to impact the city, the nation, and the world.

 

About the Organization:

Before the initial gathering of seven individuals, came the vision for Rhema Christian Center, which was to be a place where the Word of God would empower people to serve, a clear vision was given to an individual named La Fayette Scales. God charged one man, to raise up a work in Columbus, Ohio that would reach people and touch lives all around the world—a unique fellowship of believers and a community of faith. Hence, Rhema Christian Center was birthed out of the mind of God, into the heart of Apostle La Fayette Scales.

La Fayette Scales gathered around him a core of charter members and Rhema Christian Center’s inaugural service was conducted on May 2, 1982. Of the 30 people who attended, ten responded to the call for discipleship and membership. A year later, La Fayette was formally installed as its pastor. Under his leadership, the church membership rapidly increased, where three worship services became a necessity, in addition to the Sunday and Wednesday evening services.

Today, Rhema Christian Center contains a steadfast congregation housed on a debt free campus, a wide-range of facilities, seven multi-sites in the Columbus region, and 30+ ministries worldwide with plans for future expansion.
