We are part of the International Foursquare Gospel Church. The term “Foursquare” stands for the four-fold ministry of Jesus Christ as the Savior, Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, Healer, and Coming King. Romans 10:9, Luke 3:16, Acts 1:11, 1 Peter 2:2-4

The Foursquare Church was founded in Los Angeles, California, by Aimee Semple McPherson in 1923. Amid the revival days of the early 1900s, this fellowship of believers was born, determined to proclaim the solid scriptural core of Pentecostal renewal, avoiding the extremes of fanatacism on one hand and materialism on the other.

God, in His grace, has allowed us to grow from the one local fellowship to nearly 2000 churches in the United States and Canada. The Foursquare Church has also been established in over 110 countries of the world.

We have no desire to compete or compare. We rejoice for every body of believers which lifts the blood-stained banner of Jesus Christ. The Foursquare Church is a member of the National Association of Evangelicals and as a Pentecostal Church is affiliated with the Pentecostal-Charismatic Churches of North America and the Pentecostal World Conference.
