Our Story

Back in 1973, Pastor K. V. Johnson decided to start a home Bible study for a few people in Yonkers, New York. By 1977, this Bible study had grown into an incorporated church in Westchester County, NY. The church moved to its current facility in 2003.

The way God moved wonderfully and miraculously to help the church purchase the property and build the current beautiful facility is a testimony to His faithfulness.

Pastor K. V. Johnson went to be with the Lord in 2002. A man of great vision, Rev. K. V. Johnson led the church for over three decades. His guidance helped build Ebenezer Full Gospel Assembly from a small gathering into the church it is today. He was passionate in his commitment to leading people to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. He has gone on to be with our Savior and God, the Lord Jesus Christ, and with all the saints through the ages.

Tenets of Faith

ARTICLE II: TENETS OF FAITH

The Holy Bible, consisting of 66 books, is our all-sufficient rule for faith and practice. This Statement of Fundamental Truths is intended simply as a basis of fellowship among us, that we all speak the same thing, according to 1 Corinthians 1:10 and Acts 2:42.

The truth set forth is held to be essential to a full-gospel ministry. No claim is made that it contains all Biblical truth, only that it covers our need as to those fundamental doctrines.
