About us.
WHO WE ARE
​Kingdom Community International is an Apostolic Hub and Center dedicated to equipping and deploying five-fold ministry leaders to advance the Kingdom of God.
​
Founded by Apostle Dr. Shirley Wade Anthony on March 16, 1996, with our first Bible Study, we held our inaugural Sunday worship service on May 19, 1996, at the Old Little River Community Center. We were originally known as Praise & Deliverance Church, affectionately called P&D.
​
On February 24, 2008, we relocated to our current hub at 10855 Quail Roost Rd., Bahama, NC 27503, and as our purpose was revealed and the vision evolved, we became Kingdom Community International.
​
Further expanding into our purpose, Kingdom Community International – Roxboro, an Apostolic Center at 1314 N Main St., Roxboro, NC 27573, was birthed on October 6, 2022.
​
We are passionate about restoring and establishing Apostolic Hubs and Centers (Acts 15:16-17), sparking a harvest across cities, regions, and nations, with the goal of manifesting the Kingdom of God in every area of society.
OUR MISSION
We are instruments in the hand of God, to perform only, that which He has called us to do; and we shall obey.
The Spirit of the Lord, is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified.
​
And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen, and your vine dressers. But ye shall be named the priest of the Lord: Men shall call you the Ministers of our God; ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
Isaiah 61:1-6.

OUR VISION
We are an apostolic hub and center founded on Biblical principles and doctrine. We serve as a restoration church with an Apostolic anointing; with the compassion, and character of Christ to reach our community, our country; and our nation.
We serve a physical and spiritual balance using the Living Word of God to obtain a spirit of excellence. We proclaim Jesus Christ as the author of this great vision, full-bodied, and operating in the five-fold ministry.
​
We maximize every moment to the saving of souls, reviving and nurturing saints. The vision is of a full bodied church working within the five-fold ministry.
OUR AFFIRMATION OF FAITH
We believe in the Father who is God Almighty; the Creator of all things; The sustainer of light and life.
(Isaiah 43:10,11)
We believe in the Son, who is Jesus Christ. God’s only Begotten Son. He was human and divine; truly lived, suffered and died; rose again from the dead, ascended on High and is coming again.
(Luke 1:31, 35; 1 Peter 3:18)
We believe in the Holy Ghost who was sent from God the Father and the Son. That the Holy Ghost is the active Messenger of the Godhead keeping the line of communication open between man and God.
(Acts 13:4; Joel 2:28)
We believe in the two definite works of grace. Conversion of the first work of grace and the foundation of salvation. Sanctification is the cleansing action of the blood of Jesus; that work that sets the believer apart as a vessel unto honor to be used by God.
We believe in the baptism of the Holy Ghost. With three initial signs as evidence of this gift of God; power, tongues and the fruit of the Spirit is exemplified in the life of a believer.
(Ephesians 1:7; 1 Corinthians 6:11; Romans 8:5; Phil 2:12)
We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God. That is the Bible, God seeks to reveal His will to man and man seeks to respond to God’s Revelation. We believe that the union of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is revealed through His church. That all believers are united into one body, the Church.
(1 Peter 1:21)
We believe that Christ is coming back for His Church without spot or wrinkle, that it should be without any such thing. That without holiness in Spirit, Soul, and Body, no man shall see the Lord.
(Isaiah 53:5; Ephesians 5:27; II Peter 3:14)
