Pastor Blesses Private Jet; Second Pastor Flown In On Separate Jet To Bless The Blessing
Cornerstone Glory Ministries confirms the dual-aircraft sanctification was 'scripturally necessary,' citing a verse theologians cannot currently locate.
TULSA, OK — Senior Pastor Brock Halloran of Cornerstone Glory Ministries officially consecrated the congregation's new $47 million Gulfstream G700 on Saturday in a ceremony that required flying in a second pastor aboard a separate private aircraft to bless the blessing, sources confirmed. The supplemental clergyman, Bishop Darnell Pruett of Harvest Fire International, traveled from Nashville in what a church spokesperson described as a "spiritually mandated witness flight," billed to the ministry's Faith Infrastructure Fund at approximately $34,000.
"You cannot sanctify a vessel of that magnitude with a single anointing," Pastor Halloran told the congregation during Sunday's broadcast, which reached an estimated 2.4 million households. "The Lord told me — He said, Brock, this needs two coverings. Two men of God. Two jets." Halloran paused for effect. "Obedience is expensive." The crowd erupted. Buckets were passed.
The Gulfstream, registered to a shell LLC called Wings of Providence Holdings, will be used primarily for what Cornerstone Glory describes as "apostolic outreach travel," defined in the ministry's 2025 annual report as trips to the Maldives, Aspen, and a series of unspecified "prophetic summits" in Monaco. The jet features custom cream leather seating, a wet bar the ministry calls a "communion preparation station," and a bedroom that the church's communications director insisted is "for prayer and nothing else, please stop asking."
The IRS, which revoked Cornerstone Glory's tax exemption in 2023 before reinstating it six weeks later following what court documents describe only as "a meeting," declined to comment. Bishop Pruett's return flight home cost an additional $28,000. His blessing lasted eleven minutes. Both men reported feeling deeply moved by the Spirit, which, one anonymous deacon noted, "always seems to move in the direction of the airport."
