About the parish

A house built on the Word,
the Spirit and excellence.

RCCG Pavilion of Redemption is a parish of The Redeemed Christian Church of God, planted in Houston to make heaven, take as many people as possible along, and hold nothing back in the process.

We began as a small gathering of families praying in a living room, convinced that Houston needed another lampstand. Two decades later the pavilion has become a spiritual home for immigrants, professionals, students and children from every background.

Our life together is simple and deliberate: we open the Bible and teach it plainly, we pray until something happens, and we serve one another with the practical love the gospel demands. There is no celebrity culture here — only a congregation trying to obey Jesus in public.

We hold to the RCCG mission of making heaven and taking as many people as possible with us. Everything else — our music, our media, our ministries — exists to serve that single, unhurried aim.
