Foreword
This publication records the remarkable journey of Miracle Redemption Christian Center International (MRCCI), highlighting God’s faithfulness from its beginnings in Israel to its continued growth in Ghana, the United States, and beyond.
The Birth of the Vision
Reverend Kofi Van Dyke Noah and his wife relocated to Israel in 1991. After graduating from King of Kings Bible College in Jerusalem in 1994 and being ordained into ministry, Rev. Noah received a burden to establish a multicultural evangelical church where people from every nation could worship together and experience the transforming power of Jesus Christ.
The Israel Years
The first MRCCI congregation was planted in Tel Aviv. As the ministry expanded, a second church was established in Eilat. These churches became the foundation for the international vision of MRCCI.
Expansion into Ghana
Returning to Ghana in 2001, Rev. Noah established churches in Accra and Kumasi. Evangelistic outreach, prayer, discipleship, and church planting became defining features of the ministry.
Coming to Minnesota
In 2002, Rev. Noah relocated to Minnesota. Prayer meetings began with Sia F. Dean and several families in Brooklyn Park before the church officially moved to Richfield on August 15, 2003. The first Sunday worship service was held on October 19, 2003.
Growth and Relocations
As membership increased, the church relocated to Woodlake Lutheran Church in Richfield in 2004, then to Crystal, Minnesota, on March 1, 2008. In October 2010, the church moved to Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, into a larger facility with seating for approximately 800 worshippers. In 2013, the church relocated to its current location on Thomas Avenue North in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where it continues to serve as the international headquarters of Miracle Redemption Christian Center International (MRCCI). From this location, the ministry has continued to expand through worship, discipleship, community outreach, leadership development, and church planting.
