Who We Are

​Praise Temple is a Pentecostal diversified ministering body founded upon the Word of God. As such we believe, teach, and apply the Apostles’ doctrine; share the Gospel of Jesus with genuine love, mercy and compassion within the community; minister help and healing to the hurting in the Church Body and the community, and provide a climate of worship for fellowship and spiritual growth.

The Way We Worship

We pray together out loud

[Acts 4:24] “they lifted up their voice to God with one accord…”

We lift our hands in praise

[Psalm 134:2] “Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.”

We sing with all our hearts

[Psalm 98:4] “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.”

We play musical instruments

[II Samuel 6:5] “…and all the house of Israel played before the Lord on all manner of instruments…”

We clap and shout unto God

[Psalm 47:1] “…O clap your hands all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.”

We dance in the spirit

[Psalm 150:4] “…Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.”

We testify publicly

[Psalm 22:22] “I will declare thy name unto my brethren; in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.”

We anoint with oil for divine healing

[James 5:14] “Is there any sick amoung you? let him call for the elders of the church;
and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.”

We allow the operation of the spiritual gifts

[I Corinthians 14:26] “…when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine,
hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation…”
