How it all began
The inception of Unity Pentecostal Church of God, began with a unified vision of having a place of worship. The vision would be birth during a prayer meeting in the home of one of the original eight families (approx. 25 members) whom later would become the tools used by God to lay down the foundation. The prayer meeting took place in the month of November 1989, and the collection that day became the first monetary seed planted into the creation of the church.
Ever since our humble beginnings, the role of the family has been instrumental to us effectively ministering to the needs of people.
Fueled by the desire to see the vision God had given them becoming a reality, it was decided that the time had come to find a place more conducive to worship. The decision to find and rent a place inspired the eight families to each make a pledge of monetary support to sustain the financial necessities. The families included: Lucie Buissereth, Peres and Florence Desir, Fedner and Yesmonique Ferrier, Ducois and Lisseul Forestal, Augustin and Jacqueline Gaspard, Roland and Marie Carole Hyppolite, Jean Robert and Exiliene Jean Francois, and Celand Milfort. The monetary pledge of the families made it possible in the month of February 1990 to rent and move into a temporary location that was capable of seating 40 to 50 members. The church flourished spiritually and with increasing membership to the point where that temporary building could no longer accommodate the need of the group and the decision was made to have a building, a temple of our own. The search for a new building led the church leaders to our current location, our temple since 1995. The hand of God continues to bless our assembly with membership of over 200 parishioners and increasing; this new blessing has prompted the complete renovation of the building to expanding the temple.
God blessed the efforts and obedience of the families. Unity Pentecostal is an independent church sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ within our community and beyond.
