<\/a><\/p>\nPhotos: James Bombales<\/em><\/p>\n Global Kingdom Ministries<\/a> hosted a special groundbreaking ceremony last week at Trinity Ravine Towers<\/a> in Scarborough. The event marked a major milestone for the community, which has already sold out of its first phase and is now accepting registrations for phase two.<\/p>\n Over 300 guests were in attendance including Glenn DeBaeremaker, Councillor, Scarborough Centre-Ward 38, Pastor Bob Johnston, Lead Pastor at Global Kingdom Ministries, Pastor Kern Kalideen, CEO at Global Kingdom Ministries and Trinity Ravine Towers, and representatives from the offices of John McKay, MP, Scarborough-Guildwood and Mitzie Hunter, MPP, Minister of Education, Scarborough-Guildwood.<\/p>\n Located at 1250 Markham Road, just a few minutes south of Highway 401, the development is one of the city\u2019s first faith-based, 55-plus adult lifestyle communities geared to evolve with the needs of its residents. It offers an innovative Life Lease option which allows homebuyers to purchase an interest in the property at market value and have exclusive use of their suite, common areas, facilities and amenities.The benefit of this model is that the development can be controlled by a non-profit or charitable organization such as Global Kingdom Ministries, to ensure an age-exclusive mature adult community. In addition, all maintenance, repair and upkeep are covered by a monthly occupancy fee, similar to condo fees.<\/p>\n \u201cTrinity Ravine Towers is more than just concrete or steel.
