ABOUT US

We are a small community of believers who enjoy the presence of God. The presence of God living in us can transform us and the people around us.

 

Ark International Church had it's first service on November 15, 2015. The Ark of the Covenant represented the manifest presence of God in the Old Testament. The presence of God blessed the people who lived in obedience to Him. Moses would go into the presence of God and come out with a glow on his face. As long as the presence of God was with the people there was victory. The presence of God, however, wreaked havoc on the powers of darkness. The ark was captured by the Philistines and placed in the temple of their god Dagon, and the statue of Dagon fell face down the first day. He was put back into place and the next day the statue had fallen again, but this time his head and hands were broken off.

 

Ark international Church applies the same principles in the church today. The presence of God denotes victory to His people. The powers of darkness will have to fall face down. In the New Testament every believer hosts the presence of God as we are the temple of the living God. Come enjoy the presence of God and see what we can do together to transform the community, the city, the nation, and the nations.

We at Ark view the church more as an "ecclesia" or assembly where fellow believers who are empowered by the Holy Spirit gather together to encourage each other and learn from each other to become more effective in preaching and demonstrating the power of the kingdom. We believe that the church has to go out to the community rather than try to bring the community inside the church in order to bring change.
