The United Pentecostal Church International (UPCI) is a Oneness Pentecostal denomination headquartered in Weldon Spring, Missouri.[1] The United Pentecostal Church International was formed in 1945 by a merger of the former Pentecostal Church, Inc. and the Pentecostal Assemblies of Jesus Christ.[2]
The United Pentecostal Church International began with 521 churches and has grown, according to their own figures, to more than 43,000 churches, including daughter works and preaching points, 43,000 ministers, and a total constituency of over 5.75 million worldwide.[3][4] The international fellowship of United Pentecostals consists of national organizations that are united as the Global Council of the UPCI,[5] which is chaired by the general superintendent of the UPCI, currently David K. Bernard.
