Flower Pentecostal Heritage Center
The Assemblies of God is the largest Pentecostal denomination in the world, as well as the fastest growing. The Assemblies of God has roots in the religious revival of the late 1800s. Many Christians in the United States and other parts of the world felt the need for more of God’s power. In response, the Holy Spirit came on large numbers of them as it did in the book of Acts.
The beginning of the modern Pentecostal movement is generally traced to prayer meetings at First Assembly Bible College in Topeka, Kansas on January 1, 1901. Revival spread to Missouri and Texas and then to California. A three-year revival meeting at the Azusa Street Mission (pictured) in Los Angeles attracted believers from across the nation and overseas. This served as a springboard to send the Pentecostal message around the world.

Today, the General Council of the Assemblies of God recognizes fifty-eight distinct districts. The Peninsular Florida District Council was formed in 1925, when the Southeastern district was disbanded and replaced by several new districts following state lines in the region. In 1929, the state of Florida was broken into two districts: the South Florida district and the West Florida district. District archives indicate that 28 churches and missions were members of the district at that time. In 1961, the South Florida District was renamed “Peninsular Florida” due to the fact that more than half the district was geographically located in the northern half of the peninsula. In 1974, the largest church in the district was Miami Central Bible Church with an average Sunday school attendance of 950. In 1980, First Assembly of God in Lakeland was the first congregation to show an average Sunday worship attendance of more than 1,000.

 Fourteen superintendents have served the district from Jepthat Webb to Terry Raburn. Howard S. Bush led the district from 1942-1960. During his tenure, Southeastern Bible College was moved to Lakeland, and a new campus was constructed on Lake Bonny in conjunction with the district offices. Superintendent Bush left the office when he was elected to serve as the assistant superintendent of The General Council of the Assemblies of God. J. Foy Johnson was elected district superintendent in 1966 and led the district until 1990. He built a new district office on Lake Parker. In addition, he provided oversight to the construction of two camp facilities: Camp Alafia and Masterpiece Gardens. Under his anointed leadership, the district experienced dramatic growth in the numbers of ministers, churches and adherents. The present superintendent, Terry Raburn, was elected in 1996.

Currently, the district has 350 churches with congregations in the Virgin Islands, 1,300 credentialed ministers, and more than 94,000 members and adherents from the Suwannee River to Key West.
