Years of Experience
The International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) is an Evangelical, Charismatic Christian Church. It was officially inaugurated as a church on the 26th of February 1984, in Accra, Ghana. The first meeting was held in a small classroom with an initial membership of just about twenty people.
From February 1984 to April 1986, the membership grew to about one hundred and eighty (180) adults in regular attendance.
The early meetings of the church were held in several facilities which included classrooms, a private residence, a public hall, a science laboratory, a mechanical workshop and a cinema theatre.
In May 1986, the church settled in a rented scout hall, the Baden Powell Memorial Hall which became its home for the next ten years.
During this ten-year period, the membership rose to over 4,000. This period also saw aggressive missionary church planting activities with local assemblies established in towns and cities of Ghana. Several other churches were also planted in cities in Europe and the United States.
The first congregation which was established in February 1984, now designated as the Christ Temple Assembly, has directly planted over forty other churches out of the original congregation in the Accra- Tema metropolis of Ghana alone.
In 1988, the ICGC established a ministerial institute to train a new generation of leaders to carry out its vision. From the initial six-month certificate in ministry, the college has developed into the premier private-owned University in Ghana known as the Central University.
Again in 1988, the church instituted an educational scholarship scheme, known as Central Aid, to finance the education of selected needy students in pre-tertiary educational institutions. This scheme is now considered the largest non-governmental scholarship programme for students in pre-tertiary education in Ghana.
The International Central Gospel Church is a socially conscious Christian church which upholds the philosophy of Human dignity and Excellence. It engages in promoting and staging events whose impact have reached to the depths of the Ghanaian society and brought Christ to the doorsteps of the people.
In line with the ICGC vision for enormous growth, several branches were planted across the nation and the world at large. As a result of this, Eagles Temple, Gbawe was birthed in 2002.
Formerly known as Celebration Temple, ICGC Gbawe started worshiping at the premises of the Gbawe Methodist cluster of schools. In 2003 the church acquired the land at its current site and relocated. Amongst its initial challenges, the church also had to worship under a tent, sometimes with members at the mercy of reptiles, dusty winds, heavy rains and wet and muddy grounds. This went on until 2005 when the current temporary, makeshift Children’s block was constructed to serve as auditorium for Sunday services.
On the 1st of September 2008 Reverend Dr. Priscilla Naana Nketia was assigned to Eagles Temple, Gbawe as Head Pastor of the church. On assumption of office, she immediately set in motion measures to address these challenges.
With the support of the leaders of the church the construction of a church complex began in 2010. Today, Eagles Temple is proud of its church auditorium which ensures comfort of worship in reverence.
This is how far the Lord has brought us. Join us in our worship and experience the blessings of GOD.
