Lamor Whitehead, 44, of Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries Brooklyn, has made headlines after being sued for $5 million in a dispute with the Glory of God Global Ministry. The property at 5904 Foster Avenue is owned by the Glory of God Global Ministry.
The Brooklyn pastor’s congregation sued him a week ago, alleging that he tried to evict them from the church. He is accused of preventing many church members from attending Sunday worship.
He gained notoriety after being robbed at his church in July 2022, and again in December, when he was imprisoned on extortion and fraud charges. Lamor Whitehead faces numerous federal charges, including extortion, wire fraud, and making false claims against a parishioner and a businessman.

Lamor Whitehead made headlines once more when the Glory of God Ministry sued him for $5 million, as previously stated. The pastor is well-known for his lavish lifestyle, and he is frequently seen driving a Rolls-Royce and wearing fine jewelry and outfits. Last week, Whitehead was served with a $5 million lawsuit in Canarsie.
Lamor Whitehead, according to the complaint, purchased the property at auction and then unlawfully changed the building’s locks just a few weeks before Christmas. As a result, many churchgoers were unable to attend their Sunday services. According to the New York Post, a judge supported the group and allowed them to return to the land in an isolated housing court case.
The Glory of God Global Ministry, on the other hand, has filed a $5 million lawsuit against Lamor Whitehead, claiming that he breached the contract by attempting to evict the members from the premises. The church also stated that the Brooklyn pastor should give up possession of the land and “be forever barred from claiming ownership” of the structure.
In a foreclosure auction in February 2022, Whitehead paid $1.94 million for the building. The church’s senior pastor, on the other hand, contested the tax debt that led to the foreclosure and maintained that the building was never turned over to the Brooklyn Bishop. According to the complaint, Whitehead was also accused of taking the building illegally and without a formal court order.
Prosecutors claimed that Whitehead also defrauded members of his own church
The pastor has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, claiming that any judgment related to the housing court case should be stayed. Lamor Whitehead was accused by prosecutors of defrauding members of his own congregation, Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries.
His lawyer, Brian Ponder, has called the latest case “frivolous” and stated:
“[They will] move to dismiss the case and seek sanctions against the plaintiff and its attorney.”
The Glory of God Global Ministry has filed a lawsuit, seeking substantial damages for fraud, conspiracy, and tortious interference with the contract between the two parties.
