The Sanctuary is a very unique place. It was birthed out of Pastor Yolanda in 2011 at a time when all she felt was pain and in need of a place of refuge to gain real truth, wisdom, and knowledge. And the same truth, wisdom, and knowledge that freed her are freely given in a very exceptional way. The Sanctuary has met in fellowship virtually since 2011. Pastor Yolanda was on the cutting edge of worship. She had the vision to bring believers to worship in Spirit and in Truth virtually well before it was popular. To join her in the Virtual Tabernacle all you needed was a computer, phone, or mobile device to meet with us virtually via our website or social media. Pastor Yolanda and covenant partners from North Carolina, Georgia, Maryland, and New York have met in the Virtual Tabernacle to fellowship, grow, and learn since 2011. And she is still in position today, teaching and prophetically preaching God's Word with passion and zeal. Any place at any time can be your refuge. You can join thru your desktop, tablet, or phone. You can also listen to a teaching from Pastor Yolanda on our YouTube Channel. When you enter The Tabernacle you’ll be able to interact with Elder Monte, Pastor Yolanda, and covenant partners from New York to Georgia via video or phone. It’s easy and convenient but most importantly it’s uplifting and inspiring and it gives life, abundantly. Enter into The Virtual Tabernacle during one of our scheduled worship services for an interactive experience thru your computer, or mobile device (phone, tablet, or iPad).

Pastor Yolanda had a vision to have a virtual tabernacle that you could fellowship with God and the Body of Christ from anyplace and at anytime. She built this Virtual Tabernacle back in 2011, before there was ever a Zoom. She built the first Virtual Church on the ClickMeeting Application and she is still holding Bible Study and Worship from this virtual space.

Find Out More About Us
Yolanda Douthit founded “The Sanctuary” in 2008 after the passing of her beloved father, Rev. Marvin N. Kelty, and her aunt, Pastor Barbara J. Cameron. After their untimely passing four months apart, she was distraught with grief and was empty; seeking direction and healing as they both were very influential forces in her life. She was a member of a local church, but it was not providing the salve to heal her wounded soul. She desperately sought out a place where she could find comfort and relief from the pain of her loss. And although she was raised in the church and was a PK, “preacher’s kid”, the traditional church setting was not what was required to heal her heart. She desired something different to reach her weary and dying soul.
