The Pentecostal Assembly was founded in 1923 beginning with open-air meetings. During the 50 years that followed, several buildings in Bangor served as meeting places. In 1973 land was purchased on outer Broadway and a new church was built. The first service was held in the new building on Dec. 31, 1975.
