Overseer's Welcome Address
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity... For there the Lord commanded the blessing…” (Psalm 133:1, 3)
Welcome to the Church of God in the British Isles & EU.
It is my delight and honour to welcome you to the official website of the Church of God UK & EU Malayalam Section. This website gives us a glimpse of the various ministries and activities of the Church of God, the locations of our congregations and the names of our ministers, departments and its leaders and other relevant matters that might be useful to all.
The Church of God is a worldwide Pentecostal family of spirit filled people from all races, cultures, languages, ethnic and national /linguistic backgrounds with a passion for Christ and a commitment and dedication to serve the people. Its roots are in the holiness movement of the 18th century and was founded by a small group of eight people on the 19th of August 1886. Today the Church of God has branches and ministries in 189 countries of the world.
Due to the arrival and settlement of a large number of Malayalam speaking believers and friends from Kerala, India and other regions of Asia and the Middle East since early 2000, there was a need for establishing local branches in the British Isles and EU. The Malayalam section is currently registered under the national body of the New Testament Church of God and the UK Cross Cultural Ministries.
We praise God for the growth, expansion and development of the churches and its mission and ministries, and the impact upon the future generation and the host nations.
If you are looking for a spiritual family for fellowship, friendship, and a place of worship, we would gladly welcome you to come along and be part of the Church of God UK & EU family.
God bless you.
Yours in Christ,
Pastor Joe Kurian
(Overseer - Church of God UK&EU Malayalam,
Director - UK Cross Cultural Ministries)
