ABOUT US

Living and Sharing the Gospel

Grace Communion International South Africa has churches throughout South Africa and is a registered Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) and Non-Profit Organisation (NPO). Pastoral teams care for each church.

In addition to the Sunday service, we offer children’s ministry, youth ministry, women’s ministry, men’s ministry, bible studies and speech clubs.

These activities are congregation-specific. Contact details for each congregation are under the “Congregations” menu.

International Affiliations

The denominational headquarters of Grace Communion International is in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA.

We are a member of the (NAE) National Association of Evangelicals in the United States and similar organisations in other countries.

The Southern African region of Grace Communion International encompasses congregations in South Africa, Mozambique, Lesotho, Namibia, Mauritius and Madagascar.

In addition, Grace Communion International Africa is active in 19 African countries. There are close cross-border links between many of the Churches that allow for synergies and local congregational development.

Local history

Grace Communion International was established on 23 March 1963 in Johannesburg as the Worldwide Church of God, but subsequently changed its name to Grace Communion International in 2009.

This change was in line with direction from our international headquarters, which reflected a move to Trinitarian theology and practice. Our full denominational history is available at
