About Good News Assembly of God; we are...

Protestant

The Assemblies of God is a Protestant fellowship. We believe each person may commune directly with God based on Jesus' death on the cross. This provides a personal and meaningful relationship with Him. While we are less formal in our worship to God than many protestant denominations, the Assemblies of God is very similar in faith, with the exception of its Pentecostal doctrine (Hebrews 4:14-16; 6:20; Ephesians 2:18).

Trinitarian

Like most Christian groups the Assemblies of God believes God exists in three persons -- the Father, Son (Jesus), and Holy Spirit. We believe all three are alive and at work today. We also believe this God of three persons is the one and only true God (Matthew 28:9; Luke 3:22; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

Evangelical

The Assemblies of God is notably classified as Evangelical. The church is distinguished as such because it places high priority on the inspiration of Scripture and its mission to bring the lost to a saving knowledge and relationship with Jesus Christ.

Pentecostal

The most definitive identification of the Assemblies of God is Pentecostal. Just as it was founded in 1914, the Fellowship remains a full gospel church—one where the fullness of the Holy Spirit is welcomed, nurtured, and taught. This includes speaking in tongues as the initial evidence of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Other manifestations of the Holy Spirit embraced by the church include: messages in tongues with interpretations, prophecies, word of knowledge, and the complete offering of the gifts and fruit of the Holy Spirit as indicated in the Bible. Among Pentecostal churches—the Assemblies of God is largest worldwide with over 52 million constituents.

We have a full staff of pastors. We have a full time office manager. A custodian is also on staff.  We are governed by a local board of active church members in good standing that are elected by the chuch body for terms of 3 years each. This board meets the third Thursday of each month in the evening in closed session and conducts the business side of the church.  Members are welcome to approach the board by appointment with the senior pastor, and will speak at the beginning of the business session before the board goes into closed session. We also have a set of by-laws that govern our activities corporately.  We are linked to the Assemblies as a member of the Wisconsin-Northern Michigan District of the Assemblies of God USA.

Jesus Christ  called all of us to ministry.  In a nut shell, the Bible says the Father wants the child active in a church or ministry setting!  (1Corinthians 16:19, 2 Corintians 6:1, 1 Cornthians 14:26, Deuteronomy 14:26)   The board and management team at this church encourages you to get involved,  get active, take a membership class and become exposed to what the bylaws are and how the church is governed, resolve any moral differences that might be present, and then fulfill your destiny and begin or become invovled in a local ministry right here at Good News Assembly of God in Ishpeming Michigan.  God loves you and rewards those who seek him!  (Hebrews 11:6, Psalms 69:9;119:139; Galatians 4:18)  He is patiently waiting for you to get started!

Our pastors are willing to meet with you anytime. Please call the office or their personal cellular number for prayer, a visit, or just coffee.
