About | Church of God UAKnox

At The Church of God of the Union Assembly at Knoxville, we proudly celebrate over one hundred years of holiness preaching by faithful men of God. As part of an Assembly founded on God's word, Knoxville has proved dedicated to reaching the world and serving God's people. As guardians of the gospel, we are committed to the cause of Jesus Christ through the mission of His church.

OUR MISSION

The mission of the The Church of God of the Union Assembly, Inc. is as follows:

PREACHING

We will preach tirelessly the everlasting, life-changing gospel of Jesus Christ as the only hope for eternal life.

TEACHING

We will teach by our words and actions, those who will see and hear, the precepts and principles in God's word that will equip the hearer to live godly, productive lives so that they may bring honor to Christ and His church.

REACHING

We will reach with every resource, to those believers whose faith is weak, whose spirit is tired, and whose light has grown dim.

OUR LEADERSHIP

Knoxville is led by our Pastor, Assistant Pastor, and a team of dedicated preachers and staff.
