New Testament Church of God
About
New Testament Church of God is a Dorchester congregation that describes itself as a church for the entire family. Led by Senior Pastor Bishop Dr. Stanley Edwards, it holds Sunday school for both children and adults, a Sunday morning worship service offered in person and over Zoom, and a fasting and prayer service. Its mission is to minister to the spiritual, social and physical needs of people through compassionate service.
The church began in 1978 in the home of the Hall family, one of its founding families, under the name Somerville New Testament Church of God. In 1979 the group started worshipping in a community building in Union Square, Somerville, holding ladies meetings, Bible studies and prayer meetings. After outgrowing that space, it moved to Dorchester in 1982, took its current name, and is known to many simply as Stoughton Street.
