In February 1998, Pastor and Co-Pastor Bradley founded Mt. Gerizim World Outreach Ministries with twelve members in the living room of their home. They then stepped out in faith and transitioned into a building in November of 1998.
For nearly 14 months, the services of this ministry were held at 709 Dawn Street in Richmond, Virginia. During this time of humble beginnings, the membership continued to grow and a larger facility was needed.
God miraculously blessed the ministry to secure a new, larger facility without incurring debt upon move-in time.
Hence, in January 2000, our next location became 4112 Fitzhugh Avenue. (Also in Richmond, Virginia.) – Another milestone in the history of this ministry occurred on Sunday, February 13, 2000 when Mt. Gerizim World Outreach Ministries, along with Dr. Dimitri Bradley, celebrated their first anniversary; The service was held at 5:00 p.m.
Since that time, the theme for the anniversary, “GOING TO THE NEXT LEVEL” has certainly become a reality. Indeed, God has manifested His blessings, in countless ways.
After being at 4112 Fitzhugh Avenue for only two years and with over 170 members Mt. Gerizim World Outreach Ministries then relocated to the 4116 Fitzhugh Avenue location on April 30, 2002. The ministry continued to grow steadily. And, after three years and eight months (at that address) Mt. Gerizim World Outreach Ministries and Dr. Bradley relocated to the current location of 4700 Oakley’s Lane in Richmond, Virginia, in December 2005.
As of July 1, 2007 the name of Mt Gerizim World Outreach Ministries was changed to the Mountain of Blessing Christian Center.
