Kingdomcity is a Pentecostal multi-site church in multiple locations around the world. Originally based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, before it expanded to Perth in Western Australia, Kingdomcity now also has locations in Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and many other nations in Asia. It was founded by Mark Varughese.

History

[edit]

In 2006, Mark Varughese claimed to have a profound "burning-bush experience"[2] which led to his move from Perth, Western Australia, to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to plant a church.

After two and a half years in Malaysia, he received an invitation to return to Perth to pastor Lakes church concurrently taking over from pastor Neil Smith. This move led to the birth of Kingdomcity – with both congregations unified under one name. In their opinion this was a declaration of their mandate, and a representation of the responsibility of every believer, to bring God's kingdom to every city.

Music

[edit]

Kingdomcity's Band produces contemporary Christian praise and worship. Kingdomcity recorded their first original album in 2020 and has since released three albums: Hope, Place of Worship and In God We Trust.

Kingdomcity Youth (the youth ministry and youth band of Kingdomcity) have also released multiple singles, 1 album and another Remix Album. With Kingdomcity Kids having their own original songs too, there is music for the whole family.
