WELCOME TO
PARKLAND FOURSQUARE
This is Pastor Dan...and my family! Welcome to our church, which we feel like is an extension of our family! We would love to meet you, but let us start by letting you know a little bit about us and what makes us who we are.
ABOUT US
Parkland Foursquare is 5 years old and a growing church family! We are so grateful to God for all those who have proclaimed the good news of Jesus in Parkland. Our history as Parkland Foursquare is only 5 years deep, but our roots can be found much further back to revivals throughout history and moves of God at PLU raising up leaders who have made disciples of Jesus across the globe including many in our congregation. We did not bring Jesus to Parkland and we are honored to accept the call and join Him in this time and place in history to do everything He has asked us to do.
We gather our whole congregation on Saturday evenings at 6pm. Much like a large family gathering, you will find people of all ages and different stages of life. We are a down to earth group of people hungry to know Jesus deeper and passionate about providing an opportunity for everyone to experience God.
Our mission at Parkland Foursquare goes beyond Saturday night. Powerful testimonies of what God is doing throughout the week through Holy Spirit empowered believers continues to encourage us to equip the church. We equip others through faithfully teaching the Word of God, providing opportunities to pray and connect deeply with one another and encouraging each other to live their faith out and serve God empowered by the Holy Spirit.
WE BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST AS
The Savior, The Healer, The Baptizer with the Holy Spirit, and The Soon and coming King.
Parkland Foursquare is a Church of the International Foursquare Gospel. The name "Foursquare" is unique when compared to those usually given to churches. That's because it was born out of an unusual move of God during the first quarter of the twentieth century. The name comes from our founder, Aimee Semple McPherson, who received a vision of Ezekiel's four-fold revelation.
THE SAVIOR
Jesus is the only one who has saved us from our sin. We are passionate about providing opportunities for people to encounterJesus and receive His salvation.
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. (Ephesians 2:8–9)
THE HEALER
Jesus heals. As a church we are contending for His healing in our lives, families and city in all manners of life.
Therefore, confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. (James 5:16)
THE BAPTIZER WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to empower the Body of Christ. We desperately want to see the Holy Spirit empower us with His gifts to be effective witnesses of Jesus.
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8 )
THE SOON AND COMING KING
Jesus is King. As a church we have the privilege of partnering with Him now for His rule and reign to expand in all areas of our world until He returns and fully establishes HIs kingdom.
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. (Romans 14:17 )

SERVICES
Our worship songs are about Jesus and to Jesus and help awaken our love for Him in a deeper way. We will typically have someone share a fresh story about how they partnered with Jesus in their life recently. We will have a message from the Bible that will lead us closer to Jesus. After service and during we will often pause and provide space to respond immediately to what God is doing. You will find people praying for one another, reading their Bible, and encouraging each other.
KIDS MINISTRY
We love families and have a growing kid's ministry. After the second song we will dismiss our kids and teachers for their own time of encountering God through worship, the Bible, fun lessons and games that draw them closer to God.
