Our Vision

About Our Vision

The vision of FPC is birthed out of the very heart of Jesus. First, the Great Commission: "18 Then jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age" (Matthew 28:18-20). 


Second, the Great Commandment: "37 Jesus replied: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments" (Matthew 22:37-40).


In FPC's vision, "Multi-ethnic, Multi-generational, mission-shaped community" is from the Great Commission and "Love God completely (Upward), Love ourselves correctly (Inward), and our neighbors compassionately (Outward)" is from the Great Commandment.

Our History

Our Early Beginnings

The first Pentecostal Church had its beginning in the upper auditorium of a large frame building on Humber Road in Humbermouth (Corner Brook East). The first meeting in this building was held on September 6, 1925. This building known as the "ARK," marked the founding of the first Pentecostal Church, Corner Brook

Construction of a New Church

In 1934, construction of a church building was started on Humber Road not far from the Ark. The first meeting was conducted in the new church on Christmas Day, 1937 when the church was officially opened and dedicated. The sign erected across the front of the building read: "Full Gospel Assembly."

Our Current Home

In 1959 the congregation decided it was time to sell this building and purchase land on Premier Drive, Corner Brook, on which to erect a new and larger facility. On November 19, 1961 the congregation met for worship in a new building on that location. In 1975, the Assembly's year of jubilee, an extensive expansion program was launched to provide a larger worship auditorium, additional Sunday School rooms and youth facilities. This building serves the congregation today. First Pentecostal Church is the mother Pentecostal assembly of the West Coast of the Pentecostal Assemblies of Newfoundland and Labrador.
