Mase Expands Church Into Phoenix: Former Bad Boy rapper builds upon Atlanta location.

November 16th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

*Rapper-turned-preacher Mason “Mase” Betha is building a second branch of his El Elyon International Church (EEIC) in Phoenix, Arizona, reports Allhiphop.com.

The former entertainer says the second church falls in line with his plan to expand his ministry beyond its Atlanta location.

“It just makes sense that we are on both coasts,” Mase said in a statement. “Our vision has always been to plant churches all over the world, and Phoenix is the first of many. We love the city of Phoenix and look forward to making a tremendous impact.”

Mase, who retired from rap in 1999 after declaring himself a born-again Christian, said he picked Phoenix after making several recent trips to the city.

Despite plans of launching the new EEIC branch on Dec. 31, Betha will continue to oversee EEIC’s flagship church in Atlanta, which is currently undergoing renovations.
