About Us | Fireplace International Church

Our Beliefs

We believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried;
He descended into hell; on the third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from there He will come to judge the living and the dead.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.

Our Vision & Purpose

We are a vibrant church committed to loving God, serving our neighbours, and making passionate disciples of Jesus Christ. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, we reach out, baptize, and disciple to fulfil the Great Commission and bring lasting transformation to our community and to the nations.

We are wired to God through faith, inspired by Jesus Christ in our calling, and fired through the Holy Spirit to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them to obey His commands, until His return (Matthew 28:18-20).

Ps Carol's calling at age 12 began a lifelong dedication to ministry and community service. With over 30 years of experience, she has touched countless lives through evangelism and discipleship, embodying compassion and enthusiasm in her work.
