Televangelist Seeks Approval to Build Bible-Themed Luxury Resort in San Diego
January 27, 2016
Morris Cerullo’s ministry is hoping to break ground this year with the goal of opening for business in 2018.
California televangelist Morris Cerullo has proposed building a Bible-themed resort in the Mission Valley section of San Diego. The Pentecostal leader provided the city with designs for the resort as part of the Environmental Information Report, KSWB-TV reported.
The structure would include 120 timeshare luxury suites, as well as a biblical museum, a 20-foot replica of Jerusalem's wailing wall, a dome theater and hologram-equipped catacombs.
Cerullo, 84, suggested building the $125 million luxury resort on the site of a former Mission Valley hotel he bought more than four years ago, according to KSWB.
Cerullo's organization, World Evangelism, estimated the vacation destination would attract up to 400,000 yearly visitors and generate an estimated annual revenue of $86 million.
The City Council has yet to approve the project, but Cerullo’s ministry is hoping to break ground this year with the goal of opening for business in 2018.
