The Assemblies of God has its roots in a religious revival that began in the late 1800s. In 1914, both preachers and laymen gathered from 20 states and several foreign countries for a initial meeting in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

Currently, the Assemblies of God in the United States, and Assemblies of God organizations around the globe make up the world's largest Pentecostal denomination, with some 41 million members and adherents in over 190 countries. More than 2.5 million people worship in over 12,000 Assemblies of God churches across the United States.

The Assemblies of God is a Protestant fellowship. While we are less formal in our worship to God than many protestant denominations, the Assemblies of God is very similar in faith, with the exception of its Pentecostal doctrine.

Like most Christian groups, the Assemblies of God believes God exists in Three Persons–the Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit. We believe all Three are alive and at work today. We also believe this God of Three Persons is the One and Only True God.

The Assemblies of God is classified as Evangelical. The church is distinguished as such because it places high priority on the inspiration of Scripture and its mission to bring the lost to a saving knowledge and relationship with Jesus Christ.

The most definitive identification of the Assemblies of God is that we are Pentecostal. Just as it was founded in 1914, the Fellowship remains a full-Gospel church–one where the fullness of the Holy Spirit is welcomed, nurtured, and taught. This includes speaking in tongues as the initial evidence of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

We are committed to fulfilling a three-fold mission:

1. To introduce the lost to Christ;
2. To provide an environment for worshiping God and fellowshipping
    with others;
3. To effectively train and nurture believers.
