Prayer Mountain Ministries History
One day as Bishop L. McKenny was about his business, God clearly spoke to him to begin a new work in Columbia, South Carolina. His response was, “Who me? Oh no, I’m just fine with The Love Center Church and Charity Outreach Ministry, especially with us being in the middle of a pandemic where churches are closing their doors, and some are even losing their buildings.” That did not phase God. He said, “McKenny, I want you to start a church in Columbia.” This time Bishop said, “okay God.” He then asked, “What should I name the church Lord”, and HE responded, “Prayer Mountain Ministries,” and thus Prayer Mountain Ministries was birthed, and in the midst of one of the worst pandemics we have seen, Corona Virus. God has been faithful through it all.
They began looking for a building in which services could be held, and they found favor with a pastor who rented to them on Horseshoe Circle. After having rented for two years, Bishop told God, "We need our own church". They prayed and began to thank God for their new church by faith. Bishop McKenny sent out a text to five of his pastor friends to ask if they knew of a building for sale. The next day, of the five people he texted, only one of them responded. This man of God texted back and said call me asap, and he did. The Pastor said he was going to be putting his church building on the market in the next two days, and Bishop said, “please don’t put it on the market. Let me talk to my members,” and they all were in agreement to make the purchase. In March of 2022, they closed on the new building that sits on six acres of prime land, and on a main thoroughfare. This was ordained by God. Romans 8:14 says, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Welcome to Prayer Mountain Ministries, where our services are powered by the Holy Spirit and always subject to change.
