GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY FOR THE GARY L. MILES VETERANS’ HOME
On Sunday, June 24, 2012, International Gospel Center held its Groundbreaking Ceremony for the Gary L. Miles Veterans’ Home. This historic event was an occasion to remember. Attendees, including the very excited membership of IGC, were many government officials from the Metro Detroit area.
Also, there were many cheers, huge smiles and lots of applause as the new street name, “Dr. Charles O. Miles Sr. Blvd.” was unveiled. International Gospel Center is well on its way to building the city within a city.
