Christ Center Church was birthed into the earth realm by God's sovereign spirit through Pastor Alvin Ashley, Sr. Pastor and Co-Pastor Brenda Ashley.
As God shifted the vision, His instructions to them were to become a One-Flesh Ministry. After meeting approximately 1 year in the Pelican Inn Hotel, God gave Pastor Ashley the vision to acquire our former Ministry Headquarters, 1920 Jewella Avenue, in Shreveport, Louisiana. God performed a supernatural surprising and they purchased the present headquarters in September of 1999. Little did they know that under the leadership and guidance of Pastor Alvin Ashley, this monthly gathering would be pushed into full time ministry, meeting every Sunday. In January of 2000, S.I.S.T.E.R.S. stepped into a new era of ministry with the purpose of meeting the needs of the entire family. Pastor Alvin Ashley, under the wisdom of the Holy Spirit, had been given the task of taking this ministry to the next dimension. In October of 2001, Pastor Alvin Ashley birthed in the earth realm, "EMPOWERING DISCIPLES" Bible Study. In March 2002, God moved again, speaking to Pastor Alvin Ashley, the vision shifted into Christ Center Church...Home of S.I.S.T.E.R.S. International Ministries & Restoration Crisis Center. Pastors Alvin and Brenda Ashley's goals are to SAVE THE LOST AT ANY COST and make God true disciples. In April 2007, God moved again and we purchased our new location at 6808 Jefferson Paige Rd., Shreveport, LA. This time God blessed us with 47,000 square feet and 20 acres of land to further His Kingdom. By no means is this story complete. So stay tuned...
