The Evolution

We are so blessed at the Dream Center to have the opportunity to invest in things and people before they become what they are meant to be. We get to watch miracles happen right before our eyes everyday.

What started as a dream in a young boy's heart has grown into a huge ministry reaching thousands of people everyday.

The Dream Center has grown from a small gathering at Bethel Temple to housing over 500 people every day, 3 weekly services of thousands of people, and expanding into an even bigger facility to equip more people to come and serve and to help more people in need.

The food truck sites, which started as just a passion in Pastor Caroline Barnett's heart to help a family, have grown to serve 32 sites with two trucks, five days a week. The food truck is now reaching over 2,000 people in over 500 families each day when they go out with the trucks. This incredible vision is now able to feed over 50,000 people and distribute over 200 tons of food each month.



The Dream Center Youth Department started back in 1997 with about 150 teenagers. Today there are about 900 youth and young adults at the services. At the start of 2010 the new youth group Reach was born. There are over 80 students who are getting plugged into: worship, dance, drama and more! We believe that the youth group we are raising up today will become tomorrow’s leaders. There is a community center with teen homes, and a junior high and high school.

They are bussed in every week and bussed home. This is a huge, amazing blessing for hundreds of kids who would have had no other way to see life outside of their own experiences.

The Movement, a program designed to raise up the next generation of world changers, started out with 17 people graduating and now, only 5 years later, has about 120 young adults in the program striving to reach the local church, the nation and the world for God.

The ministries of the Dream Center, starting with Adopt-A-Block, have expanded to over 270 ministries and are still expanding. Just recently, a Family Floor was launched to help struggling families, as well as a floor for teenage mothers with nowhere to go. Also, in progress, is a shelter for victims of Human Trafficking.
