In August 2002, the Lord moved on Pastor Omar's heart to start a bible study. The Lord revealed that the city of Lafayette was hard ground, but nonetheless fertile ground. The Lord gave the tool to break through the hard ground of Lafayette, which was His word. John 17:17 'Sanctify them through Thy truth, Thy word is truth.' While also committing ourselves to prayer, we realized that it was the Lord who wanted Lafayette, as He declares in Isaiah 62:12 . . . 'Thou shalt be called, sought out, a city not forsaken.'
