Church History
Our Story: 10 Years of Faith & Family
What started as a Bible study on a back porch in 2014 with 16 faithful friends has grown into a thriving community of over 200 adults and children.
In November 2015, Pastors Junior and Trudy Tucker, alongside a dedicated core team, officially launched Family Word & Worship with a clear mandate: to be a place of healing and wholeness according to Isaiah 61:1proclaiming good news to the poor, binding up the broken-hearted, and setting captives free.
From our first service at New Kingston Shopping Centre to where we stand today, God has been faithful. We’ve witnessed countless lives transformed, families restored, and hearts healed. We’re not just a church we’re a family on mission together.
As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, we’re more committed than ever to creating a space where the hurting find hope, the lost find home, and everyone encounters the life-changing love of Jesus Christ.
