When completed, the City of Light will include an International Media Training & Production Center, designed to train and equip "media missionaries" from around the world in state-of-the-art methods and techniques for using media to communicate the gospel in their native lands. Facilities also are planned to accommodate the ministry's other outreaches, including a Tea House and Conference Center for its women's ministry, a Youth Evangelism Center, a Children's Evangelism Center, and a state-of-the-art pavilion for concerts and events. The campus is being developed using a multi-phase approach and is expected to require up to ten years to complete.
