Our History

In March 1981, through the divine vision endowed on about eight believers, an AG service was started in Karama High School. Evg. C D Sam spearheaded this initiative. God blessed the congregation abundantly with more believers within a short span of time. The growth prompted for the move to Holy Trinity Church compound in 1982. This was the first Pentecostal service started in Holy Trinity Church. During the stint of Evg. C D Sam [1981-1987] the church grew both spiritually and materially with more believers.
 
 After Evg. C D Sam, our elders Bro V T George (Thiruvalla) and late Bro K M Abraham (Ranny) where anointed by AG Malayalam Dist superintend Rev. P D Johnson to provide leadership of the church. Subsequently the need for a permanent pastor was felt and accordingly the church was integrated into the Central District of S.I.A.G [South India Assemblies of God] and was known as Immanuel Assemblies of God.
 
 Rev. P C John (Pathanapuram) was appointed as the first full time pastor. From 1990 to 1993, Rev. P C John led the church spiritually, and his family continued to support him in his ministry. During his period he initiated the first English Service and English Bible class to cater the spiritual needs of English speaking community.
 
 After his return to India in 1993, below mentioned servants of the Lord ministered in this church
 
 As the Bible says    On this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell will not overcome it    Mathew16:18, the church grew to become a role model spiritually, through Holiness and Separation through the word of God.
 
 Bro M A Thomas who served as the secretary for almost nine years was unanimously appointed as the Assistant Pastor in 2002. Currently more than 150 believers gather for worship. The church is blessed with an active Sunday School, CA [Christ Ambassadors], Men   s Fellowship and WMC [Women   s Missionary Council]. We have area prayer meetings held in various locations across UAE, led by our devoted members. The church is blessed with a music ministry known as    Immanuel Chorus    who spread the word of God through music to many people within the church and outside.
 
  We hope you will continue to uphold Immanuel Assemblies of God church in your humble prayers...
