Ridge Avenue Church of God of Prophecy

Ridge Avenue Church of God of Prophecy The Church of God of Prophecy is a Pentecostal Holiness Christian non-denomination. Nearly 90% of our global membership is outside of North America.

The Church of God of Prophecy is a vibrant, worldwide body of believers, united in worship, working hand-in-hand to share God’s love and a message of hope to the brokenhearted. The Church of God of Prophecy has over one-and-a-half million members, worshiping in over 10,000 churches our missions in 125 nations of the world. The Church of God movement began over one hundred years ago in the humble h

earts of earnest believers in the rural mountains of Cherokee County, North Carolina. Following a miracle-filled revival that took place in a schoolhouse near Camp Creek in 1886, a small congregation formed a Christian Union to pray and study the scriptures. Soon led by an energetic young pastor from Indiana named A.J. Tomlinson, the group was more formally organized in 1903 into the Church of God and relocated its headquarters to neighboring Cleveland, Tennessee the following year. From Appalachia to the World, the century that followed saw great growth in all the branches of this movement. From the beginning, these spiritual pioneers traced their roots to the New Testament church and considered themselves a continuation of the Spirit-filled Christianity exhibited in the book of Acts. This desired connection with early Christian expression continues today with a mandate that all church decisions be committed to prayer and based on scripture. In contemporary theological terms, the Church of God of Prophecy is a Protestant, Evangelical, Wesleyan holiness, Pentecostal movement that believes in man’s freewill regarding salvation.

On behalf of the Ridge Avenue Church of God of Prophecy, I, Rev. Dr. Lorraine Brown, would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Councilwoman Katherine Gilmore Richardson, Councilmember Jeffrey Young Jr., and their dedicated teams. We are so thankful for your partnership in our recent back-to-school initiative.

Your collaboration was instrumental in the success of our bookbag and school supply giveaway. It is a true blessing to serve the families of North Philadelphia, and we are grateful that you joined us in nurturing and fostering a sense of community. The generosity shown by your offices has made a tangible difference in the lives of our neighbors, providing essential resources and showing them that they are seen and cared for.

This event was a beautiful expression of love in action. As Christians, we are called to love one another, and this sentiment is perfectly captured in 1 John 4:7-8:

"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love."

Your partnership in this effort is a testament to this principle, and we pray that we can continue to work together to be a light in our community.

With sincere thanks and blessings,

Rev. Dr. Lorraine Brown
