The Purpose of the Church
The purpose of Showers of Blessings Harvest Center, Inc. is to rebuild, repair and restore the whole man (mind, body and spirit). SBHC is a ministry of restoration and evangelism.
The Vision of the Church
Our vision is to prepare a place that ministers to our community, city, state and nation. Our desire is to give God the glory in all that we do and to remain humble so that God may use us (I Peter 5:6)
Showers of Blessings Harvest Center, Inc. was the vision of its Founders and Pastors Willie L. and Linda A. King
The first church service was held at St. Luke Full Gospel Church on Sunday, December 1, 1996. This service was very small, but it was filled with the power of the Holy Ghost. God moved in a mighty way and within eleven days the Lord
blessed the congregation to move to another location.
On December 11, 1996, the SBHC family moved to the University Centre Hotel, located at 1535 SW Archer Road. The church remained there until 1998 when the Lord opened doors for Showers at the Highlands Presbyterian Church located at 1001 NE 16th Ave. The congregation remained
there until July 26, 1998.
Finally, on August 2, 1998, Showers of Blessings Harvest Center, Inc. opened its doors for the first time for fellowship at 2615 SE 15th Street. The property has a spacious facility that houses several different ministries and covers over
15,000 square feet.
Amenities include: a full-length basketball court, dining hall, nursery, daycare facility, library, outreach facility, classrooms, and administrative offices.
"Showers of Blessings is the church where the impossible became possible," said Pastor Willie L. King, Jr., "There aren't many ministries that can double in size and have a church in
less than two years. Showers is truly a gift from God."
