India Full Gospel Fellowship

In the early years, it was hard to organize a Malayalee Pentecostal gathering, because very few Malayalee were settled in the North West part of America. The believers who were here attended English services and worshipped the Lord. As the years went by, an increasing number of Malaylees migrated to Washington. When these newcomers arrived in the city, there was a strong desire in their hearts to worship the Lord in the way they had known.

We remember in the 1980’s, we only had a handful of believers to meet together for worship, which only happened for a time being. In 1990, believers in Seattle decided to hold monthly meetings on Saturday evenings that continued for some time. But there still remained a longing to have a worship service on the first day of the week, as our forefathers practiced. When these feelings were shared with the fellow brothers and sisters, they showed strong support. So, the believers came together and decided to name the organization India Full Gospel Fellowship (IFGF).
