Charis Worship Centre 26 years since 2000. Imparting, empowering, impacting.

Our heart

Grace has a name. Charis.

Founded in January 2000 with twenty-two members, Charis began as a Pentecostal, charismatic ministry in Paarl. God has kept adding people to the fellowship. Today three campuses across the Boland carry the same charge: impart, empower, impact.

Imparting Empowering Impacting

We remain committed to the authority of Scripture and the message of the Cross and Him crucified. There is a chair at the table for you.
