Did the name James McKeown ever cross your path? Here at The Church of Pentecost in Accra, his legacy resonates deeply. This church, a beacon of Pentecostalism, traces its origins back to his British mission in 1937. The Church of Pentecost, as we know it, wasn’t always called that. It began as the Gold Coast Apostolic Church in 1953. With Ghana’s independence in 1957, it became the Ghana Apostolic Church. A name change was mandated by President Kwame Nkrumah himself in 1962. This resolved a conflict with another church and birthed the name The Church of Pentecost. Today, The Church of Pentecost spans over 100 nations. It boasts a global membership of millions. Imagine, from a small mission in Ghana to a worldwide movement. Here in Accra, at The Church of Pentecost headquarters, you stand at the heart of this incredible journey. Apostle Eric Nyamekye, the current chairman, leads this vibrant community. Inside these walls, thousands of congregations gather, united by their faith. The Church of Pentecost continues to grow and inspire. It stands as a testament to the power of faith and the enduring legacy of Rev. James McKeown.
