Jesus is the same: Yesterday. Today. Forever.

100 years
of Foursquare

On Jan. 1, 1923, Sister Aimee Semple McPherson held her very first church service at Angelus Temple in Los Angeles. Now, 100 years later, we get to celebrate all that God has done in Foursquare in the U.S. and around the world.

We have lots of fun things in the works for 2023, and can’t wait to honor Foursquare’s past while looking ahead to the next 100 years!
