Glory to God! It’s Ours! The Gulfstream V is in our hands!

What a wonderful gift! We knew the Gulfstream V would come quickly, and now we have it. And it’s all because of you, the faithful KCM Elite CX Team members–combined with the blessings of a FAITHFUL GOD!

 

Check out this video with Kenneth Copeland when the ministry took possession of the debt-free Gulfstream V on Friday, Jan. 12, 2018!

Thank You for Your Generous Gifts

As your volunteer team leader, I want to personally thank each of you for your generous gifts that make possible the CX Team’s role of helping KCM accomplish its vision. I’m writing you, Partner to Partner, because I know that together with the Lord, we are a mighty TEAM–achieving what might seem to some as impossible! And while the Lord has faithfully provided seed for each of us to sow, He’s also shown me that He has been preparing a HARVEST for each of us to reap.

 

In fact, earlier this year when the CX leadership team met to pray and hear from the Lord, the word we heard was harvest. Yes, HARVEST, HARVEST, HARVEST! The Lord reminded us that, through our CX Team giving, TOGETHER we have SOWN into KCM a Citation X, a state-of-the-art HD TV truck, and now we’ve sown a Gulfstream V–all of which are producing a bountiful harvest for every single team member.

 

We Are Expecting to Reap a Massive Harvest

We must think of ourselves as sowers of that magnitude, and as harvesters who can reap at that higher place! We haven’t just sown our individual CX gifts; collectively, through Mission 3, WE HAVE SOWN A GV as a team. If you calculate the hundredfold return on Mission 3 alone…what a massive harvest! God wants that kind of prosperity in the hands of Partners like us who will fund the gospel. Get ready. This team is going to a new place in the Kingdom. And it’s going to be life- and ministry-altering!

 

About the Purchase of the Gulfstream V

I know you are eager to learn about our progress. Thank you for your patience! We delayed writing you while working through the initial phases of the GV purchase so that we could give you the most informed update.

 

First, the Holy Spirit confirmed to Brother Copeland that the Gulfstream V was the plane the Lord had set aside for KCM. Right away discussions began, and Brother Copeland developed a wonderful personal relationship with the seller, Christian businessman and movie-maker Tyler Perry. Soon a contract was signed, a cash deposit was paid, and the aircraft was brought to Dallas for a very thorough pre-buy inspection process, which has wrapped up in November. And praise God, it was actually during THANKSGIVING week that the purchase was completed, the title was signed, and thanks to the CX Team, the cash was in the bank to mark it paid in full! Hallelujah, it’s done!

 

There’s More Work to Do

But our work as the Elite CX Team is not done. Overall, this Gulfstream V is in outstanding condition and is an exceptional value; however, before it goes into regular service for KCM, we want to upgrade the avionics to meet new standards the FAA will require in the near future. We also need to reconfigure the interior to better serve KCM’s needs for international flights. In the next few weeks, the avionics and interior work will commence. The cost of these upgrades is approximately $2.5 million. So, as Elite CX Team members, we need to set our faith NOW on receiving that additional seed so that we can sow it within the next three to four months, as the upgrades are completed.

 

Beyond the purchase of the Gulfstream V and its upgrades, remember that the overall Mission 3 goal is $17 million. By sowing the balance of those funds as the CX Team, we will be sowing toward: the construction of a new hangar, upgrading the existing runway, and purchasing special GV maintenance equipment.

 

So, what is God putting in your heart to set your faith for? Have you named your CX seed? We, like David’s mighty men, are a mighty force of agreement for each other. The Copelands, the KCM staff, the leadership team and I are pressing for your harvest and our harvest as a team. Let’s be aggressive in our faith, in our giving and in our harvesting! Pastor George and Sister Gloria have been ministering recently about this harvest. Watch it at kcm.org/harvest, and you will be blessed.

 

We know the Lord, and we know Brother Copeland. Vision won’t stop coming and faith doesn’t stop increasing. At the Dayton Victory Campaign, he said, “The spirit of increase” is on this Elite CX Team. So know this: the Lord is working with your seed. He is providing any seed you need. He is making sure our mission is clear, and He is bringing in the harvest. According to Mark 11:22-23, the CX Team believes that we can have what we say, and we are convinced in our hearts of that. So with no doubt in our hearts, let’s boldly confess:

 

“We receive our CX harvest!

New planes, vehicles, debt freedom, healing, salvation…whatever our fellow members need

is coming to this team now, in Jesus’ Name!”
