Gathering Together Event
April 3-4, 2020
Charlotte, NC area
2 days. 12 speakers. 3 worship teams.
For several years there has been a strong desire among some to pull churches and ministries in this local area, Charlotte, North Carolina and Fort Mill, South Carolina together.
In 2003 the Lord initially put it on one's heart to ask
several ministries with similar connections to somehow, someway, work together in
areas where they could, to bring the Lord’s Body together in unity. Only one replied, writing back, "It will never happen."
It is not about big names, big churches or big ministries. It is about being the Body of Christ, together, as Jesus Himself prayed in John 17. We believe His prayer will get answered - one way or another.
That one and only response back then, now 16 years later, must change. It is still on the Lord's heart, and now in an even greater measure.
The Lord again
spoke in October 2018 that it was time to once again attempt to bring local
churches and ministries together, if even for a day or two.
Now is the time for all types, many walks, from several churches and ministries, to come together. Now is the time that the world may see one Body of Christ, believers in Jesus (Yeshua), be as one, if even for two days.
Can I get a witness? There will be One New Man, one Body of Christ, all believers walking and serving in His plans and purposes. We pray it will happen in our cities here.
We truly hope so.
Below are those who are committed to making a go of it, who comprise the leadership team for the event. We are bringing together male, female, Jew, Gentile, black, white, and all in between. Read on.

Pastor
Lathan Wood Senior Pastor, Movement Centre
“Give me something that
transcends what I see; something that speaks to the core of me.” - Lathan Wood,
Sr.
Frustrated and wanting
more, Lathan Wood began his spiritual journey as God birthed an idea within him
that would transcend the very structure of what church would become for his
ministry.
Stepping out on faith was no easy feat; a
month after the birth of his youngest son, Lathan relocated his family from the
place he called home in Georgia, for more than thirty years, to Charlotte,
North Carolina. In a state of complete obedience, God birthed the Movement
Centre; whose mission is to ignite people to pursue purpose. With a collective
vision and a ministry-minded pastor, over the past six years, The Movement
Centre has continued to expand its reach, offering a unique spiritual encounter
with Christ to a forgotten generation. Bridging the gap between new school and
old school values, Lathan’s primary mission is to develop a biblically sound
congregation and to educate his members on how to walk with power and authority
in their spiritual gifts.
To date, he has
ministered for over 20 years in different platforms both in and out of the
pulpit with one goal: to empower others to uncover the richness of the Word of
God and endow them with tools needed to pursue God’s purpose for their lives.
Having over 20 years of experience, Lathan has assumed numerous ministerial
roles and has received many accolades for his service in the Kingdom. In 2017,
he developed IgniteU, a four-semester, intensive, in-house Theology program
that equips students for effective Kingdom work.
Professionally, he wears
many hats that have allowed him to learn an array of skills. From his multiple
real estate investments, to his passion for songwriting, composing, and
producing, Lathan has years of professional experience in a variety of
industries, including community relations, project management, youth
development and customer service. He holds a Master’s in Business, a Bachelor
of Arts in Business Management, and an Associate’s degree in Music. With the
echelons of academia at his fingertips and his spiritual keenness, Lathan Wood
knows that he is just at the beginning of walking into the many places God has
called him to be.
Aside from being
committed to his personal and professional progression, he considers his greatest
achievement to be the ones that walk with him daily: his wife of 15 years and
partner in ministry, Pastor Kelli Wood, and his two natural children, Lathan,
Jr. and Kaiden.
Steve Martin, Love For His People Founder and President

Christian ministries of Derek Prince, Mahesh and Bonnie Chavda, and Barry and
