Our Affiliation
First United Pentecostal Church is
privileged to belong to a worldwide fellowship of churches called
the United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI). This affiliation
provides our local assembly with four important benefits:
U
united force for evangelism
By combining our energies and resources with
thousands of other churches, we are able to multiply our efforts to
send and support missionaries, and more effectively fulfill the
Great Commission.
P
protection of doctrinal balance
As part of a large group, we are exposed to
different opinions and ideas in “non-essential” areas, while being
held accountable in areas of fundamental doctrine, bringing a
healthy balance to our church.
C
cooperation without control
Because we are part of a fellowship of churches
instead of a denomination, our local church remains autonomous. We
choose our own pastor, own our building, and determine our own
programs.
I
identity with other Apostolics
Belonging to the UPCI allows us to identify with
other Apostolic believers around the world who are known for their
commitment to Christ, His Word and the New Testament salvation
experience.
