Welcome to the
Pentecostal
Protestant
Church

Since 1958, the Pentecostal Protestant Church (PPC) has served as a Spirit-filled, mission-driven federation of congregations across South Africa — united in purpose, grounded in Scripture, and committed to the Great Commission.

A National Fellowship of Self-Governing Congregations

The Pentecostal Protestant Church is a federation of over 220 autonomous congregations across South Africa, united through a shared federal constitution and spiritual fellowship. 

Each assembly operates as an independent legal entity, while remaining connected through relational leadership, accountability, and a common commitment to advancing the Kingdom of God.

Together, we are building strong churches, equipping leaders, and transforming communities through the power of the Holy Spirit.
