About us
Welcome to the global family of the Church of God UK Cross Cultural Ministries.
The roots of the Church of God UK Cross Cultural Ministries are found in the 1980s.
The World Missions of the Church of God in Cleveland, Tennessee launched a mission to reach both the indigenous and the diverse population with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Initially the mission was called ‘London Metro’ and was supervised by the European Superintendent.
This work was not making much progress as expected, and in the 1990s Rev. Tony Summerfield was appointed as the supervisor for the work in Scotland and the London Metro and had initiated the UK Cross Cultural Ministries.
Pastor Joe Kurian and family from India were appointed by the Church of God World Missions in 1985 to pioneer and organise churches among the ethnic minority people in the London Metro area and beyond.
In 1996, Rev Summerfield handed over the
responsibility to Pastor Joe Kurian.
The first Asian Indian Christian church under the UKCCM was established in 1983 and since then many local missions and congregations in various communities have been organised.
The UKCCM is a growing global community with hundreds of members and adherents. It is a Registered Charity and Limited Company in the UK.
