UNITED PENTECOSTAL CHURCHES OF CHRIST
Share Our Page
Brief History
The UPCC was organized by Bishop J. Delano Ellis, II of Cleveland, Ohio in April 1993 with some twelve pastors and ministers who desired an alternative in Pentecostal witness. The UPCC is a theological blend of Pentecostal tradition and worship with Apostolic teaching and practice. We are anglican/apostolic in government while congregations enjoy autonomy and self-determination. Bishops are selected by the Presiding Bishop and receive "Apostolic Succession" through the Western Stream of historic Christendom. The Church meets annualy in Cleveland during the month of August while the College of twelve bishops assist the Presiding Bishop in the governing of the Reformation. A strict emphasis is placed on high moral content and holy living for leaders and saints alike. A godly lifestyle, good example and formal education is required for those who would serve in sensitive leadership positions. The Reformation's special interest is the "storefront connection" where men and women share in the ordained ministry with credibility.
