Tomorrow International Ministries leader, 44-year-old Brooklyn Bishop Lamor Whitehead has made news after being sued for $5 million for not agreeing with Glory of God Global Ministries. The issue concerns the 5904 Foster Avenue property of Glory of God Global Ministry. A congregation of Brooklyn pastors sued him last week, claiming he was trying to drive them out of the church. He was accused of preventing many church members from attending Sunday services.
He rose to prominence after his church was robbed in July 2022, and again in December, when he was jailed on extortion and fraud charges. Lamor Whitehead faces numerous federal charges, including extortion, wire fraud, and making false claims against one of his parishioners and a businessman.
Glory of God Global Ministry has sued Brooklyn Pastor Lamor Whitehead for disrupting their Sunday prayers.
As previously mentioned, Lamor Whitehead made news again when God’s Glory Ministry sued him for $5 million. The priest is known for his lavish lifestyle, and he is often seen driving a Rolls-Royce and wearing fine jewelry and clothes. Whitehead was hit with a $5 million lawsuit last week in Canarsie. According to the complaint, Lamor Whitehead bought the property at auction and then illegally changed the keys to the building just weeks before Christmas. As a result, many church members were unable to attend their Sunday services. According to the New York Post, in a remote housing court case, a judge sided with the group and allowed them to return to the land.
The Glory of God Global Ministry, on the other hand, has now sued Lamor Whitehead for $5 million, claiming that he breached the contract by trying to evict members from the premises. The church also said it wants the Brooklyn pastor to relinquish ownership of the land and be “indefinitely barred from claiming ownership” of the structure.
Whitehead paid $1.94 million for the building in a foreclosure auction in February 2022. However, the church’s senior pastor challenged the tax debt that resulted in the foreclosure and maintained that the building was never deeded to the Bishop of Brooklyn. Whitehead is also accused of taking the building unlawfully and without a formal court order, according to the complaint.
Prosecutors said that Whitehead defrauded members of his own church as well.
The pastor has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and has claimed that any judgment related to the housing court matter should be stayed. Prosecutors accused Lamor Whitehead of defrauding members of his own congregation, Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries.
Brian Ponder, his lawyer, has called the latest case “frivolous” and stated:
“[They will] act to dismiss the case and seek sanctions against the plaintiff and his attorney.”
The Glory of God Global Ministry has filed a lawsuit, seeking substantial damages for fraud, conspiracy, and tortious interference with both parties’ contracts.
