A church founded in Chennai in 1997 with one vision: where people matter.
It's not a Sunday morning thing, but an expression of who we are throughout the week — a community through which we love, encourage and help others find meaning in life.
In a world where the media tells people they're not good, beautiful, or successful enough, we at Powerhouse aim to let people know they matter. We strive to create a space for people to come as they are and find love, encouragement and meaning in life.
Believing that we as followers of Jesus ought to move outwards — into the world — we observe and respond to what's happening around us. Our community also longs to show people that God has a plan and purpose for their lives.
Powerhouse dreams to be a place where people can find love, encouragement and meaning for their lives. We are here to listen to the heartbeat of the people in the city and respond to it.
Powerhouse is a place where people matter — come as you are and be yourself!
Belong, Believe, Become are the three principles that guide us as we welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life. You can come as you are and belong here! As you begin to experience and believe in Christ's life-transforming power you will see the amazing plans He has for you unfold as He leads you to become the person you were meant to be.
Powerhouse is a place where people matter… come as you are and be yourself!
