ABOUT US
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Potter’s House is a Pentecostal, Bible-believing, evangelistic church. We are part of Christian Fellowship Ministries, which was founded in Prescott, Arizona in 1970. Christian Fellowship Ministries has over 3,400 churches in over 140 nations.
OUR HISTORY
In 1995, Pastor Gibbs Peterson, his wife Marian and their three children moved from Santa Fe, NM and established our church on Garrett Road in Upper Darby. In 1999, the church became self-supporting. Pastor Jon Overson became the new pastor of the Potter's House in 2004. He, his wife Colleen, and their two children had been missionaries in Africa for 14 years. Our church has a heart for the nations of the world. We are a multi-ethnic congregation with people from Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Trinidad, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Nigeria, France, Pakistan, Congo, New Jersey, Arizona and of course Delaware County.
Two new churches have been planted by our Upper Darby congregation: Reading, PA (Pastor Fidelis and Cadi Nyembo), and Clayton, NC (Pastor Togba and Ruth Kollie). Our vision is to plant many more churches in the years to come. We also labor together alongside other mid-Atlantic Fellowship churches in prayer, preaching, friendship, and evangelism.
OUR VISION
The vision of Christian Fellowship Ministries is to fulfill Jesus's Great Commission in Mark 16:15 "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every person." To achieve this, the foundations of our Fellowship can be summed up as: Changing Lives- Making Disciples - Reaching the World.
