Our History

The vision of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel is to present Jesus Christ, God’s Son, to every person in every culture and nation as the Savior, the Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, the Healer, and the Soon Coming King. Since its founding, in 1923, that vision has been realized through evangelizing and establishing local congregations in the United States and abroad, by nurturing and training believers into leadership on all levels of Church life, by cooperation with other members of the Body of Christ at large in the fellowship of the Gospel, and by fulfilling the Biblical mandate to be "light" and "salt" on the earth.
