Miami Christian hip-hop artist, Cheno Lyfe, is embarking on a Church planting journey that is sure to shake things up in the ATL. The CHH-veteran is gearing up to step away from his pastoral role at Trinity Church in Miami, Florida to plant a new church in Atlanta, Georgia called Greater Church.

For the last 6 years, Cheno and his family served under the leadership of Pastors Rich and Robyn Wilkerson, as well as Pastors Rich Jr. and DawnCherĂ©. Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. is known in mainstream media for marrying cultural icons Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. West designed the cover for Wilkerson Jr.’s popular book ‘Sandcastle Kings.’

“Over the last 6 years, we’ve had the awesome privilege of serving under the dynamic leadership of Pastors Rich and Robyn Wilkerson, as well as Pastors Rich Jr. and DawnCherĂ©,” Cheno Lyfe and his wife Lyd said. “On this journey we have worn many different hats, and in the process have committed our lives to helping build the local church. As of recent, my wife Lydia and I have had a series of conversations with Pastor Rich Sr. as to what our next season in ministry might look like.”

“We are sad but extremely excited to announce that we will be stepping away from our pastoral roles at Trinity Church, and relocating to Atlanta, Georgia to launch a brand new life giving church. Under the name Greater Church, we will be planting out of Trinity Church in partnership with the ARC Network. Our projected launch date is Sept 17, 2017. We covet your prayers and support on this new journey and would love for you to hear our full story on our website, Greater.Church.”

In 2013, Cheno Lyfe dropped his sophomore retail album, ‘Lunar.’ He has collaborated with Social Club Misfits, Group One Crew, and Rhema Soul, among others. Lyfe says new music will be released in the near future.

Congrats Cheno!!! Your family and Greater Church is in our prayers!!!
