The center will function as a retreat oasis for ministerial leaders suffering from emotional and spiritual burnout and will also serve as a rehabilitation facility for people struggling with addiction and depression. The center will allow leaders to recuperate, rehabilitate, rejuvenate and rebound in a confidential, nurturing environment. The Tims family has a five-year projection plan to attain funding, acquire property and to hire staff for the center.
There has been media attention around the Tims family over the last few months. Recently, Riva Tims and family members were saddened and disappointed when a popular African-American magazine published an article on the late Dr. Tims that they felt exploited his legacy with inappropriate graphics and statements taken out of context. However, Riva Tims has not let negative news accounts keep her from moving forward in her efforts to perpetuate the memory of all the good Dr. Tims accomplished when he was alive and the good he will continue to do in his demise through the enrichment center’s mission to help leaders in crisis.
The event takes place Thursday, April 18, 2013 @ 7:30 PM at The Kingdom Church located at 5225 Alhambra Drive, Orlando, FL 32808.
