Read and be amused. Or maybe annoyed. Popular televangelist and founder
of World Changers Church International, Creflo Dollar, 53, is
hoping to get 200,000 people to donate $300 so he can buy a brand new
luxurious $65 million Gulfstream G650 airplane for his ministry, which
last year had billionaires reportedly waiting in line to get one. The
saddest part is, some people will actually donate
Below is the Church appeal posted on his website...
"The mission of Project G650 is to acquire a Gulfstream G650 airplane so
that Pastors Creflo and Taffi and World Changers Church International
can continue to blanket the globe with the Gospel of grace. We are
believing for 200,000 people to give contributions of 300 US dollars
(over #50k or more to turn this dream into a reality — and allow us to
retire the aircraft that served us well for many years."
The appeal went on to say they want a new private jet because the
current one they are using, which was built in 1984 and purchased by his
ministry in 1999, recently had engine failure and that if not for their
skillful pilot, the plane would have crashed.
Dollar insists that he needs one of the most luxurious
private jets made today in order to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
According to his admin
"we believe it is time to replace this aircraft
so that our Pastors and staff can continue to safely and swiftly share
the Good News of the Gospel worldwide. We need your help to continue
reaching a lost and dying world for the Lord Jesus Christ,"the appeal
continued before asking supporters of the ministry to sow a $300 seed
into the airplane fund, billed Project G650.
Knowing people and religion, they will pay for this jet! Even
those with retirement money. This looks like exploitation to me.
