Full Gospel Churches International Missouri is the STATE DISTRICT of FGCI. We are in all ways blessed to be led by Full Gospel Churches International, our parent organization.

Personal Relationship

All leaders have a need for relationships where they can be open and accountable. They also need to know that there are others who can stand with them in love and encouragement.

Culturally Relevant

Every leader needs to have times away where they can gain new perspective on what is happening in their church and the church world. In our rapidly changing culture, there is a need to be aware of current trends and how to respond to them.

Ongoing Equipping

Most leaders desire ongoing training and further education so that they can become more effective at what they do. Through the regional conferences, networks, and website FGCIMO will assist the leader in becoming better equipped to face the challenges of today.

Multiplied Resources

Every leader desires to find resources for the growth and development of their leadership and church, yet researching these can take more time than the leader can give. Through the networks and website, FGCIMO provides a forum for ongoing discussions on ministry tools as well as providing resource materials for all areas of worship: children, youth, missions, administration, business, worship and more. FGCIMO also provides access to apostolic ministries and leaders who can provide counsel to leaders who are in need of assistance on any level.

Personal Refreshing

Most church leaders are continually giving out and ministering to others, but who ministers to them? Where do the shepherds have an opportunity to be sheep and receive pastoral ministry? The FGCIMO conferences are a place where leaders can have time away to receive refreshing and receive personal impartation.

Impacting Network

All visionary leaders have a desire to be a part of something that is going to make a difference in the Kingdom of God. By joining together with other leaders of like vision, they will be able to make a much greater impact on the world and have a greater possibility of realizing the vision that is in their hearts. FGCI international outreach and expansion can be shared by the entire FGCIMO family.

Local Church Autonomy

FULL GOSPEL CHURCHES INTERNATIONAL has strong convictions regarding the autonomy of the local church. These underlying convictions affect everything that FGCIMO does and guides every policy that FGCIMO establishes.

We are a fellowship of pastors and leaders that partner together to build the kingdom of God through the local church worldwide. FGCI was founded in 1972 under the leadership of Rev. Morrison, Rev. Cassidy, Rev. Waterman, Rev. Bartle, and Rev. Gruver. FGCI started with a humble beginning of just a few churches and ministers, yet, over the years has grown to over 100 churches and ministries. We have a footprint in in many different nations, Thailand, Mexico, The Philippines, Liberia, Haiti, Uganda, India, and the Navajo Nation.

We exist to partner with pastors and leaders to build the kingdom of God through the local church worldwide. We are a network of pastors and leaders who connect regularly, grow in our leadership, build God’s church, resource churches and contend for the lost to be found.
