FOR HIS GLORY

Anointed Vessels Ministry is a non-profit ministry located in Ash, NC, founded for the purpose of sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the performing and visual arts !

Our Vision is threefold: To "Wake Up the Body of Christ", To "Seek & Save the Lost", and "Prepare for His Return & The Celebration". We are reclaiming the performing arts "For His Glory".


FOR HIS GLORY

The VISION the Lord has given us is to create a permanent place of consistent ministry, in an environment that would on its own educate the public about the truth of the Gospel. Our GOAL is the presentation of the Gospel to thousands of vacationers from across the country and the world, in addition to local communities. All over the country family-oriented theme exhibits are becoming more popular. This is the case whether they are for amusement such as Disney Lands New California Adventure in Anaheim, California; for entertainment such as MGM Universal Studios in Orlando; for educational purposes such as Epcot Center in Orlando or for Godly purposes such as the Holy Land Experience also located in Orlando. The FOR HIS GLORY project would meet the publics desire for this kind of family vacation destination but would have eternal hope to offer rather than a temporary diversion.



The FOR HIS GLORY project will consist of 5 areas. The descriptions of these areas are brief due to space constraints, but you can see we have a big vision.

1. THE GREATEST GIFT an outside stage area with a walk-through Nativity, The Crucifixion Area, The Celebration Tomb, and The Resurrection Area. We will be able to do childrens musicals and The Life of Christ.

2. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT ? (Create a small scaled-down replica of The Holy City, The New Jerusalem, as described by John when he looked and beheld a door was opened in heaven (Revelation 4, 21, 22). As the model is vividly presented to the guests, they will be stirred not only by the fascinating measurement of The Holy City, but also by the reality of where we will spend eternity. This will be a teaching and walk through tour. The education of the Church and the public at large about the afterlife and the end times will be according to the scriptures.

3. FOR HIS GLORY, (construct a building for our intimate 300 seat inside amphitheater to produce a theatrical presentation of the Book of Revelation through the performing and visual arts.) The scriptures say It is the kindness of God that draws us to repentance. The purpose of this part of the project will be to give people a taste of His kindness.

4. TASTE OF HEAVEN Inside the FOR HIS GLORY building, people will experience standing outside one of the magnificent pearly gates. Guest will walk on “The Streets of Gold” beside The River of Life that is graced by The Tree of Life. They will see the four living creatures around the Throne of God, the Seraphims, meet Eve in the Celestial Garden and hear about her family tree. What a thrill it will be to listen to Noah describe his experiences on the ark. One goal is encouragement to those who have lost loved ones and for the terminally ill during this time of Aids and Cancer that they do not have to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope.

5. GLIMPSE OF HELL (the Bible portrays a terrible picture of the final destination of the lost). The Glimpse of Hell will include outer darkness and a replica of the Lake of Fire with lost souls crying out. The goal of this section of the project will be to create the reality of an eternity where the worm never dies and there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. The goal is the salvation of many people who might never attend a church event. We are in a sight and sound generation, so this presentation will have great impact.



The greatest need addressed by the “FOR HIS GLORY” project is the need mankind has for God because the project directly addresses the reality of the choice between an eternity with God and an eternity without Him.

Anointed Vessels Ministry today faces a dual challenge; To serve God fully in the work He has called us to do and to identify resources that will enable us to serve, both now and in the future.

FOR HIS GLORY project addresses an exciting opportunity to reach the lost because of its location. Myrtle Beach, SC, hosts an estimated 13.5 Million visitors annually and Wilmington, NC, is one of the fastest growing areas in the country. We currently have 7.9 acres of land, located at 3255 Liberty Street in Ash, NC. This location although rural, is excellent because we are approximately 45 miles South of Wilmington, NC and 30 miles North of Myrtle Beach, SC. SOULS FOR THE KINDGOM OF GOD is what we have been promised. The “FOR HIS GLORY” project will be one of a kind within a large geographic area, perhaps in the world, and is new, creative, inspirational, educational and unique.

Thank you so much for giving us this opportunity to share our mission, vision and our work. Sincerely, Leland E. Payne & Rev. Diana Payne Servant Leaders, Cast & Crew
