2819 Church

ank account, no jobs and nothing but their hopes of starting a life-empowering church. After two more years of preparation, serving in a local church, and even leading a notable youth movement called The Vibe, Pastor Philip felt the leading of God to step out in faith and begin the ground work to plant our church. Then on February 22, 2012, he and his wife, Lena, along with 10 other believers, held their first launch team meeting in a Days Inn Hotel. From that day forward, they began to gather weekly for prayer, planning, and vision casting. God began adding to their numbers and moving mightily on their behalf as the mission to plant our church started to become a reality. After nine months of strategic planning, 2819 (Formerly Victory Church ATL) held its first public worship Gathering on October 7, 2012, with 245 adults in attendance. Pastor Philip now leads this growing group of believers with a burning passion and clear vision to lift up Christ, retrieve the lost, and empower people.
