Our History

RUCC Ministries started off as a lady’s fellowship with 19 Women in Fort gale, Umtata. As the church grew, Pastor Marius and Pastor Linda Gradwell became the pioneer Pastors in 1982 and were later joined by Pastor Don and Pastor Nomsa Phillips as their assistance in 1989.

In 1997, Pastor Don and Nomsa Phillips became Senior Pastors when Pastor Marius and Pastor Linda left for East London. Under Pastor Don and Pastor Nomsa Phillips’ leadership, the church has grown, with over 4000 congregants and 2 services on a Sunday. RUCC Ministries has birthed more than 20 church branches all over South Africa.

RUCC Ministries is affiliated with the International Federation of Christian Churches (IFCC) and has built a (6 500?) seater auditorium and Conference Center and within this vicinity that RUCC Members affectionately call the RUCC Village, there is a school that is under the church which is known as RUCC Christian School with the building named after Pastor Marius Gradwell.
