In 1981, the Lord called Rev. Charles Lyles to begin a ministry for the rejected, down trodden, confused and distressed of the vicinity in which he resides.
The church started in his home located in Pleasantville NJ as the Basement Tabernacle. where Rev. Charles Lyles, became pastor. He began this ministry with only six (6) members including his children and a few close friends.
