Creflo Dollar is trying to get 200,000 people to donate $300 ( a little over N60,000), to fund the acquisition of a brand new luxurious $65million Gulfstream G650 airplane for his ministry.
The popular televangelist and founder of World Changers Church International, posted an appeal on his website which read: “The mission of Project G650 is to acquire a Gulfstream G650 airplane so that Pastors Creflo and Taffi and World Changers Church International can continue to blanket the globe with the Gospel of grace. We are believing for 200,000 people to give contributions of 300 US dollars (over #50k or more to turn this dream into a reality — and allow us to retire the aircraft that served us well for many years.”
According to the statement, the current jet they are using was built in 1984 and the ministry bought it in 1999. They claim it almost crashed recently after developing engine failure, if not for the expertise of their pilot.
The statement added: “we believe it is time to replace this aircraft so that our Pastors and staff can continue to safely and swiftly share the Good News of the Gospel worldwide. We need your help to continue reaching a lost and dying world for the Lord Jesus Christ.”

These preachers trying to get money for their gain goes against everything they try preaching. They are nothing more than con artists. They should be in prison.
