Faith Deliverance Church of Go

What Faith Deliverance Church of Go does

Faith Deliverance Church of God in Christ is a private religious nonprofit organization affiliated with the Church of God in Christ (COGIC) denomination, headquartered at 450 Turner Road, Dayton, Ohio. Founded in 1982 by Superintendent Norman McDuffie with fewer than 40 members, the church has grown to a congregation of more than 250 members and is currently led by Senior Pastor Dr. Terence O. Hayes Sr., who assumed pastoral leadership in May 2004. The church operates a portfolio of ministries including Sunday worship, mid-week Bible study, youth programs (YPWW), women's ministry, marriage ministry, prayer and benevolence teams, and the Ethel Hayes Destigmatization of Mental Health Scholarship administered through Bold.org.

The church's technology layer is built on the ChurchSpring website platform, providing an online giving portal, sermon archive, event registration system, church directory, and visitor onboarding workflows. Service delivery has been extended beyond the physical facility via Facebook Live and YouTube streaming for worship and Bible study, with Zoom used for virtual Bible studies and prayer meetings. In 2020, the organization retired a $510K mortgage and achieved debt-free status, and it currently operates with approximately 15 staff members.

Revenue is generated entirely from voluntary tithes, offerings, and donations contributed by members and supporters through in-person collections, mail-in gifts, and the online giving portal. The customer base is the local Dayton-area congregation and surrounding community, with no tuition, product, or service revenue streams. The business model is therefore a community-led, donation-funded ministry with hybrid physical-and-digital distribution and a horizontal segmentation approach serving a single general-congregation persona across all age groups.

Others

• Bold.org: Hosts the Ethel Hayes Destigmatization of Mental Health Scholarship. An ecosystem partner that powers the church's principal scholarship program rather than a direct competitor.
• ChurchSpring: The vendor platform powering Faith Deliverance's website, giving, and event tools. Identified as the enterprise tech provider, making it a relevant ecosystem participant rather than a competitor.

Emerging players

• Church of the Higher Elevations: Emerging digital-first or hybrid congregations that compete with traditional Sunday-only churches for online worshippers. Represents the type of next-generation peer that streaming-focused ministries like Faith Deliverance will increasingly compete with for engagement.

Broad incumbents

• Church of God in Christ, Inc. (Denomination): The governing body of the COGIC denomination to which Faith Deliverance belongs. Operates the credentialing, jurisdictional, and convention infrastructure under which Faith Deliverance functions as a local member congregation.
• Bethel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church: A larger historic African American denomination with parallel community-anchored ministry model. Comparable in serving similar congregational demographics and offering engagement programming, though broader in denomination scale.

Direct peers

• Mason Temple Church of God in Christ: The international headquarters church of the Church of God in Christ denomination in Memphis, Tennessee. Operates as a flagship COGIC congregation with the same doctrinal foundation, worship style, and denominational affiliation as Faith Deliverance COGIC.
• Mount Zion Church of God in Christ: Mid-sized COGIC congregation within the same denominational family. Comparable in offering a full slate of ministries (youth, worship, missions) and operating with a similar donation-funded operating model to Faith Deliverance.
• Prayer Garden Church of God in Christ: Founder Norman McDuffie's prior congregation before he established Faith Deliverance COGIC. Same COGIC denomination, similar congregational scale, and shared denominational governance structure make it a direct functional peer in terms of ministry model and community footprint.
• First Church of God in Christ (Memphis): One of the historic anchor COGIC congregations tied to the denomination's origins. Shares Faith Deliverance's Pentecostal-Holiness worship tradition, COGIC governance, and community-outreach orientation.
• St. Paul Church of God in Christ: Comparable COGIC congregation operating as a community-focused worship center with a similar ministry portfolio (Bible studies, youth programs, benevolence). Direct denomination peer with overlapping operating model.
