ABOUT US
The Church of God in Ontario is one of three regional executive offices, affiliated with Church of God, Cleveland, Tennessee that is located in Canada. As a registered charitable corporation, we are dedicated to advancing the work of the mission mandate in accordance with Matthew 28:20, where Jesus Christ commissioned the church, " Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.
With our international headquarters located in Cleveland, Tennessee, the movement traces its roots to 1886 in a meeting house located at Barney Creek in the mountains of Eastern Tennessee. The mission of the Church of God is to perpetuate the full gospel of Jesus Christ, in the Spirit and power of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4, 6, 13-18), through specific attention to and emphasis upon the centrality of God’s Word, world evangelization, ministerial development, Christian discipleship, lay ministry, biblical stewardship, church growth, church planting, family enrichment, and servant leadership.
Philippians 2:3-8
.."3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. 4 Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others .5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."
