Founded by a group of visionary individuals, the church began as a mission as the Church of God, in 1903 to bring the message of hope and salvation to those in need. In 1967 under the leadership of Bishop George (Shirley) Wallace, the Church of God transitioned to the National Church of God Miami. Throughout the years, the following pastors and first ladies were Bishop Leonard (Merlene) Josey, Elder Vernal Juanita) Weech, Elder Curtis (Almeta) Kelly, Bishop Rupert (Ethel A,) Ramsey, Bishop Ralph Johnson, Elder Craven (Betty) Ferguson, Sr., Elder Herman (Vivian) Henderson, Sr., Bishop Willie (Ernestine) Coleman, Jr., Bishop Lawrence (Regina) Smith, and Bishop David Glass. Today, that mission continues with strength, purpose, and compassion, with two churches coexisting with one another in the same building. Currently under the faithful leadership of Elder Gould, who has been a dedicated member for nine years and has served as Pastor for the last six, the church remains committed to spiritual growth and community impact. Also, Lawrence Brown, the Pastor of God's Grace Church of Worship, has been pastoring for nearly three years. Pastor Brown became a part of the Clergy Ministry at St. John Institutional Missionary Baptist Church under the teachings of the late and former Pastor Henry Nevins and Rev. Franklin Clark of Mt Olivette Missionary Baptist Church. Focus on Street Ministries. As a 501(c)(3) organization, NCOG touches the lives of over 150 families each month, driven by a model of community partnership. Their service areas are broad yet focused, including efforts in food sovereignty, health and wellness, social service support, and housing stability. These initiatives are more than charitable; they are life -changing for the individuals and families served. Ministries within the church thrive, offering a spiritual home for all ages and stages of life. The Children's Ministry, Women's Ministry, and Men's Ministries provide age -appropriate teachings and fellowship. Marriage and Family Counseling offers guidance, healing, and strength to couples and families facing life's challenges. NCOG also remains active in addressing the immediate needs of the Overtown community through youth summer camps, regular community feeding programs, and donations to the homeless. The church partners with shelters such as Lotus House and Miami Rescue Mission, creating a powerful network of support for Miami's most vulnerable residents. As you know, Overtown is one of the most poverty-stricken areas in Miami, so there's a lot of work to be done in the Overtown area, and the church is one of the focal places of the community that helps and teaches people how to start living a more productive life. The National Church of God Miami is proof that faith in action changes lives. With a legacy built on love, service, and resilience, this century -old church continues to be a light in Overtown, guiding hearts, supporting families, and building a stronger, more compassionate community for generations to come.
