Who We Are

New Testament Church Of God Barbados

Who We Are
Our ‘Roots’ of Pentecostalism dates back to the years between 1901 and 1902 when a small group of believers in the Paynes Bay area in the parish of St. James, Barbados were mightily moved upon by the Holy Ghost. These brethren had no organized name, but were referred to as the ‘POWER PEOPLE’. In fact, it was years later that they understood that they were the forerunners of contemporary Pentecostalism. The phenomenon was so strange that its manifestations were officially and widely rejected by the conservative churchmen.
The small company was persecuted, excommunicated from the recognized church in the area, shunned in the community and finally imprisoned.
About us

Greetings from Bishop & Lady Burke

I greet you in the precious name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ! I am pleased to welcome you to this sacred space, a website that I pray you will find to be user-friendly, helpful and a significant blessing.

Through this website we have created a communication tool for us to stay in touch with you, but most importantly, a channel of God’s glory to reach the world with the Gospel for Jesus. It is my hope that you will visit often, making use of the excellent content, interactive tools and many special features.

We have intentionally posted our National Calendar and promise to share highlights of those events from time to time. We will also expose you to what’s current at our local assemblies across our island. Use it also as a tool to locate our 45 communities where the New Testament Church of God, Barbados has a presence.

I encourage you to reach out to us and let us know how we can serve you. God bless you and yours!
