(CLEVELAND) – Truett McConnell College announced this week that they have an agreement with Cleveland Worship Center to purchase the current facility located next to the college. The intent for Truett-McConnell to purchase the Cleveland Worship Center was originally announced last June, with the final details allowing the transfer of ownership being completed and signed on April first of this year.
“I am very excited that we have finally signed the official documents for the Lease/Purchase agreement” stated, Rev. Marc Turner, Senior Pastor of the Cleveland Worship Center. “I realize that it has taken many days and hours to come up with an agreement that would work for both ministries, but now that we are here, I could not be happier.”
Dr. Emir Caner, President of Truett-McConnell College commented, “Here at Truett McConnell we are blessed to be in a city and county filled with fellow believers who love the Lord and join together for the sake of furthering the Gospel. The Cleveland Worship Center is a prime example of this partnership and friendship.
