There a group of eight Christians had a deep desire for a closer relationship and life with Christ. Realizing the unsuccessfulness of reforming their own churches, they established a new church whose objective would be to restore sound scriptural doctrines of the Bible, encourage deeper consecration, and promote evangelism and Christian service. Twenty-one years after the formation of the Christian Union that evening at the Meeting house, the growing movement would establish themselves permanently as the Church of God. From this seemingly insignificant origin has grown one of the most influential worldwide Pentecostal denominations. For nearly 120 years the Church of God has been a distinctive movement focused upon communicating the gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit. Presently, the church of god has a world wide membership of over 6 million with a presence in nearly 150 countries. From a humble beginning in a storefront building on Robinson Street, this church was established in 1922 under the leadership of Reverend Glover Sapp. Rev. Quan Miller is currently pastoring. In 1924, the Board of Trustees, purchased land and built a small wooden church called Pepper Hill on the existing location site which is presently known as "910"...910 West Livingston Street, Orlando, Florida. All through the years, God continued to bless and added families to the church. These families were the very cornerstone of their existence today. Through the prayers and support of the families, the church established an organizational structure to minister to the needs of the church membership and community.
