Pastor Hopkins developed a purpose statement when he was appointed the new pastor of New Direction Community Church in Vancouver Wa (formally known as Victory Temple). Within that purpose statement God revealed His plan for Pastor Hopkins to minister worldwide. As the Vision unfolded and the ministry grew, mission and evangelism became the main driving force and focus of the ministry.

Superintendent Hopkins in 2001 established a relationship with a young seminary student who had been referred to him. They stayed in contact and Pastor Hopkins mentored the young man who had started a church in Kumasi, Ghana. In 2004 Pastor Hopkins, and Assistant Pastor Elder Doyle took their first missionary journey to visit Pastor Boenteng Pastor Boateng sought to align his ministry with New Direction Community Church Ministries and it’s parent organization Church of God in Christ.

At the same time Superintendent Hopkins took his first missionary journey to Ghana he requested to visit an orphanage in the area. Since that visit New Direction Community Church Ministries has provided a storage tank and water faucet for the well at the Offin Children’s Center Orphanage just outside of Kumasi. The children where also given sheets for their beds. They love to see Pastor Hopkins for the candy he brings.

Superintendent Hopkins returned each year, conducting crusades and pastors and leadership conferences in Kumasi and Accra. In 2008 Superintendent Hopkins extended his ministry in Ghana. He presented an additional pastor and leader conference in the coast region and traveled to Zombo Lawra in the far West of Ghana. While in the village Zombo Lawra he met another young pastor, Alfred Bunwere who had established a small congregation. Pastor Bunwere expressed his need to Superintendent Hopkins to be under a leadership covering and his desire to be developed as a pastor. Superintendent Hopkins once again responded by sharing his vision within the structure of COGIC.

Pastor Bunwere chose to come under the umbrella of Victory Temple Ministries and the International Church of God in Christ. The village chief in Zombo Lawra was very impressed with the work and the message that Superintendent Hopkins brought to his village. The Chief donated the land to build the church, thereby establishing the second daughter church of Victory Temple Ministries International in Zombo Lawra, Ghana.
