The Foursquare Church

Living Way Church Gladstone is a member of the Foursquare Church, a global Pentecostal movement founded in 1923. As part of the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, we embrace the fourfold ministry of Jesus Christ as Savior, Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, Healer, and Soon-Coming King. Our affiliation with Foursquare connects us to a worldwide family of churches committed to spreading the Gospel and serving communities with love and grace.

The Foursquare Church, officially the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel, was founded in Los Angeles, California, by Aimee Semple McPherson in 1923. Upon opening the doors of Angelus Temple in Los Angeles in 1923, Aimee Semple McPherson developed an extensive social ministry, feeding more than 1.5 million people during the Great Depression. Today, there are tens of thousands of Foursquare churches and meeting places across the globe.
