Light Mission Pentecostal Church

After years of meeting in borrowed spaces, in 2011 Sodela helped the Light Mission Pentecostal Church (LMPC) (whose congregation consists mostly of Burundian refugees) and their Pastor, Magwe Arthemon to purchase a building of their own for $130,000 at 1210 Heiskell Ave in the Lonsdale community. The congregation has made payments on this loan for about 6 years without any outside support. LMPC’s membership has increased from about 130 people to more than 300 people, but 60% have no source of income.
