History
New Jerusalem Progressive Church of God in Christ, was established in 1990 by Pastor David E. Dennis in Mansfield, OH.
Pastor Dennis adhered to the voice and command of God. The Lord spoke to him and instructed Elder. Dennis to build a sanctuary and preach the Gospel.
Pastor Dennis obeyed those instructions with just a handful of faithful young adults. The church quickly became the cornerstone for the community, dedicated to spiritual growth and outreach.
The church held its services throughout the week and soon expanded its activities to include youth programs, events, skits, and play production.
Over the decades, the church has experienced significant milestones, including the construction of additional roons and spaces for ministry.
Under the leadership of Pastor Dennis, the church was able to navigate to another city in Ohio. Elder Dennis received a word from God to start a church in Columbus, Ohio. The church’s popular tag name became “1 church, 2 Locations.”
The ultimate goal was to win more soul for Christ! Pastor Dennis passed away February 8th 2015. His memory and Legacy will live on forever!
As we look to the future, New Jerusalem remains committed to fostering a welcoming environment where faith can flourish and community bonds can strengthen. The mission is still to win Souls for Christ!
We will forever be grateful for the teachings and individual experiences we’ve had with our founder!
