It was
1886, in a crude meeting at Barney Creek
house on the Tennessee-North Carolina
border, where the Church of God traces its
roots. For nearly 120 years the Church of
God has been a distinctive movement focused
upon communicating the gospel in the power
of the Holy Spirit. Presently, the Church of
God has a world-wide membership of over 6
million with a presence in nearly 160
countries. |

IN
Southern Africa |
|
|
In the
year 1909 George Bowie came to South Africa
as a missionary sent from the Bethel
Pentecostal Assembly, under the leadership
of Minnie Draper, Newark in New Jersey,
U.S.A It was in the month of April 1910 that
the Pentecostal Mission was started, and
this Pentecostal Mission was to become The
Full Gospel Church of God in Southern
Africa, a bilingual Church. |
|
In
1951 a wonderful event took place, under the
guidance of the Lord, when the Full Gospel
Church amalgamated with the Church of God,
Cleveland, U.S.A., which church is
represented in 162 countries of the world by
means of a World Missions Programme. |
