Omega Ranch Project

THE OMEGA RANCH PROJECT

In 2009 the Holy Spirit birthed an important mission, THE OMEGA RANCH PROJECT into the heart of Perry Stone.  While praying and asking the Lord for future direction of the ministry, the Holy Spirit spoke and asked Perry, “Do you want to go where I am going?” Of course the answer was “Yes!” The Lord responded, “Then prepare to minister to the children and the youth, as I am going to pour out my Spirit on the sons and daughters of this generation.” (Joel 2:28-29). At that moment, two direct plans were dropped in Perry’s spirit. He began praying and searching for the right location to build this future ministry campus. The answer to his search was located directly behind VOE just across the railroad tracks. These 80 acres will be developed in phases over the coming years.

PHASE I

The first phase will be to construct a large facility to house a youth ministry center, along with a larger meeting place for events, gatherings, conventions, partner conferences, camp meetings, youth and prophetic conferences. After completion of the Omega Center International Facility, a youth, singles, and young couple’s weekly service will be conducted on Tuesday or Thursday nights. The music, teaching, and worship will be geared for this generation, and as the youth movement grows these gatherings will move to the larger facility. Each month Perry will host an area-wide gathering in the main center, inviting youth, singles and young adults from all backgrounds to this non-denominational facility to worship, pray and hear a fresh Word from the Lord! We will also mentor young people for ministry on a regular basis.

PHASE II

During phase II, we plan to construct one of the most unique youth camp and retreat facilities. Situated on the “Ranch,” the buildings will have a western theme and will include a game and sports pavilion (at the Train Station), a large barn for morning and evening services, other buildings such as the Freedom Jail, the Omega Bank, God’s Theatre for the arts and worship, and a huge cafeteria in the town’s General Store. A theme park type of setting will blend into the farm/ranch atmosphere on the land. Each summer, youth will come to the camp’s facilities, not just to have fun, but to experience two services a day and encounter the Lord in a setting among their own age group. We can visualize thousands of youth passing through this camp receiving Christ and being exposed to the mighty power of the Holy Spirit.

Perry Stone, Marcus Lamb, Jentezen Franklin and other ministers have all encountered the Holy Spirit in church youth camps. Perry said, “Our youth need a place to go where they are not spending hours on cell phones, text messaging and playing computer games, but where outdoor and indoor activities and the spiritual simplicity will attract and impact them.  They also need to get away from hectic city life and be on land that is like the “old farms and ranches – a place with animals, a large lake with fish, and a place to ride boats and to baptize young believers in a lake of fresh water!

Phase II of this project is to develop the Youth Ranch. However, the OCI Prayer Barn presently stands as the first building on the Omega Ranch and it is currently being used for weekly prayer meetings. To God be the glory for what He has done and will do in the days ahead!

PHASE III

To maintain the favor and blessing of God on this land, the lower section will be farmed by a young man named Nick Williams. Much of the food grown and raised on this section is given away to the poor and needy in the area and sent to special feeding centers! We believe that by farming parts of this land and supporting the poor it will maintain the blessing of the Lord upon our efforts.

THE MIRACLE HAS BEGUN!

As Perry was searching for land, he eventually met the owners of this farm. The owner was not interested in selling until he heard the vision and plan the Lord had placed upon Perry’s heart. Perry told several partners, “It’s not that I need one more thing to do, because I am very busy right now. But this is a God thing for a long term ministry. It will continue long after I’m gone, if Christ tarries!” He also said, “I know it seems strange to talk about building in what some have called a recession. However, the Lord always tells me to advance or build when it seems like it’s not the right time. This is because he alone wants the glory for providing the needs to pay for the project.”

One of the greatest miracles concerning the 80 acres is that it was paid in full the day the land transfer was made! Perry saw this coming in the Spirit and set aside funds for 3 years. We are now applying for permits to dig the lake, and prepare a dirt mound for the Omega Center International. We will need many miracles of financial provision to initiate and complete phase one.

I believe that many parents and grandparents are burdened for their children and grandchildren, and want to invest in their spiritual future. There are some who have no children or grandchildren, and God will place it in their heart to support this project with substantial giving to carry on your name and legacy and plant seed for your eternal reward. I also believe that somewhere in the United States there is someone who has been blessed in an extraordinary manner, and they will plant a major financial gift to help move this project forward.

If you want to be a part of the ground level of this project, you can give a donation for the “OMEGA RANCH PROJECT” and we will see that it is placed 100% into the building fund for the first phase, which includes preparing the ground and surrounding area for the facility. As God provides we will move forward. We will keep you updated each month in the VOE magazine, on the Internet, and through the Manna-Fest telecast.

I believe we must move quickly and accelerate this important assignment. I pray that the Lord will speak to those who have a burden to help financially, and bring others who can assist in other ways to see this vision fulfilled.
