IHOPKC has abandoned their plans to initiate a new church following the shuttering of Forerunner Church.
In an email obtained by The Roys Report, The International House of Prayer Kansas City made the announcement that they are not proceeding with the plans to establish Sanctuary Church.
“During the process of planning and carrying out these changes, incorrect statements were made about IHOPKC’s future and reasons for shutting down various ministry expressions. As we said earlier, IHOPKC is not shutting down,” the statement read.
The statement further clarified how the 24/7 prayer room would continue to operate.
“It is the decision of the Board of Trustees that the Prayer Room will remain independent of any external church and continue to be the heart of IHOPKC. Further, the Prayer Room will remain in its present location at Red Bridge center.
Our leadership is fully committed to the immediate task of improving and strengthening the Prayer room,” the statement continued. “It is presently our sole and unwavering priority to ensure this ministry is expressed through corporate gatherings of worship and prayer, training and discipleship.”

As the email continued further, it discussed the decision not to follow through with Sanctuary Church. However, those who are still actively part of the prayer room note their desire to see the Lord move upon Isaac Bennett’s life, the previous pastor of Forerunner Church.
“As many of you are aware, it had recently been reported that Isaac Bennett planned to form a new church called Sanctuary in collaboration with IHOPKC. We have been informed that those plans will not be moving forward. Despite the short-term disappointment, we are excited to see how the Lord will lead Isaac and Morgan, and bless any future ministry the Lord has for them.”
