How We Got Here
The Vision
The late Johnson Francis dreams of seeing young people in Poonah rescued from crime and addiction. A seed of faith is planted.
The Outpost
Under Senior Pastor Rev. Cecil Quamina of the San Fernando Open Bible Church, evangelism initiatives begin. Services are held at the Francis residence. Many souls touched.
Church Dedicated
A fund is raised, land donated by Bro. Francis, and the church building is erected. POBMC is officially dedicated on Saturday, 22nd November 2003.
Rev. Mansingh Appointed
Rev. Winston Mansingh is appointed Pioneer Pastor in April 2011 — the beginning of a new era of consistent growth.
Autonomy
POBMC becomes an autonomous church within the OBSCTT family on Sunday, 1st February 2015. A milestone of maturity and independence.
On the Rise
Despite challenging times, POBMC — through God's grace — has weathered every storm and is growing stronger. The best is ahead.
