Greetings to all who long to see unity in the Body of Christ.
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 my 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, almost 17 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.
Following are those who are committed to making a go of it, who comprise the leadership team for the event, followed by those who will also be ministering. We are bringing together male, female, Jew, Gentile, black, white, and all in between, in this Charlotte, NC and Rock Hill, SC region.
Read on. And mark your calendars now. April 3-4, 2020
Gathering together in Jesus’ Name,

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.

Rex and Carolyn Johnson, Covenant Keepers, Inc. (Co-Directors)
Rex & Carolyn Johnson are the Directors of CKI. They had what looked like a successful marriage, but was actually a decaying marital mess that ended in divorce after 16 years. Even though Rex re-married within a short time Carolyn chose to pray for restoration. Carolyn was shocked at the lack of help available in the church for reconciliation and restoration. On the other hand, there was abundant counsel on divorce and making a new life for herself.
She knew she had committed herself to Rex “until death do us part,” and that God was a witness to their covenant. She believes God asked her to be a woman of her word and to keep her vow no matter what.
She searched the scriptures to gain God’s perspective on marriage and divorce. As a result, she found a group of people lead by Marilyn Conrad, the founding Director of Covenant Keepers. She eventually opened her home to others in the same situation. Covenant Keepers taught her Biblical principles of forgiveness, freewill, double-mindedness, how to avoid strife, patience, sowing and reaping, and knowing God’s voice. Covenant Keepers was the ministry that was instrumental in their restored marriage.
After almost 12 years of divorce and healing by God’s grace, their marriage was restored. Restoration was the beginning step for God’s plan for their work with hurting marriages and individuals choosing to take a Biblical stand for marriage covenant vows. Now more than 20 years later they are leading the ministry that provided help during that critical time in their marriage.
They have no desire to bring condemnation to those already divorced or remarried; however, they believe individuals committed to the permanency of marriage should have an option and receive help in the Body of Christ.


Wisdom Dogbey
Wisdom Dogbey is an ordained minister of the gospel and also serves as Director of Africa missions within the mission’s arm of Antioch International Church. He and his wife, Dr. Abena Dogbey founded “Heaven’s Relief” to provide material assistance to the poor and spiritual support to the oppressed. Growing up in Africa, he has witnessed the level of fear and bondage that some Africans live in due to lack of knowledge of their identities in Christ. So, when the call came to him to take the gospel to the unreached, he answered without hesitation.
Wisdom is a man blessed with consistent dreams and visions and has had encounters with our Lord and master Jesus Christ and also seen many deep spiritual encounters regarding the workings of satan and how he enslaves unsuspecting children of God.
Wisdom ministers regularly on the mission field and recently became part of a vibrant Corporate Fellowship where he also shares the gospel. He and his wife Abena also minister regularly in the prisons in SC and lead Tuesday night prayer gathering at Antioch International Church weekly. He’s a man given to prayer and worship. Wisdom is married and has a daughter named Macaela.
