Praise Chapel International

Praise Chapel began with one church in Maywood, California in 1976. The area of the church was very strongly gang and drug infested. Within a few years God began to move in a very special way as gang members and their families began to be saved. Soon the church was filled with people on fire for God who went out side the church into the streets and neighborhoods of the Los Angeles are preaching the gospel and seeing souls saved.

Today Praise Chapel has multiplied through Church Planting into many areas of the United States and the world. With over 240 churches in the United States and hundreds more in over 25 nations. The most exciting part of the story is that it's the story of regular people and even some that most churches would reject being used greatly.
