| Gospel Lighthouse Pentecostal Church History |
The Gospel Lighthouse Pentecostal Church was originally located on the corner Braggs at 621 East 21st Little Rock, AR.
In January 1973 GLPC was established under the direction of God by Elder Bill Harden from the Word of Flame United
Pentecostal Church. Elder Bill Harden was fully committed to put in place a pastor to lead and guide the members of Gospel
Lighthouse. Elder Donald Thomas of Indianapolis, IN was installed as the first Pastor of GLPC. He lead GLPC for four years
and was given another assignment in the North.
In 1977 Elder Patrick Smith became Gospel Lighthouse's pastor until 1979. Afterward, Elder Bill Harden sent for Elder C.E.
Golder, a Minister from Indianapolis to preach a 30-day revival for the church. As a result, Elder C.E. Golder was elevated to a
higher calling and became the next Pastor of Gospel Lighthouse.
In 1980 Elder Cecil Golder was installed as the new chosen Pastor of Gospel Lighthouse. During his tenure as pastor, the
membership increased and in 1983 Pastor Golder and the members of GLPC marched to a larger edifice which is their current
address 501 East 16th street Little Rock, AR located in the Quapaw district.
Elder Cecil E. Golder was the pastor of GLPC for twenty-one years until February 15, 2001 when God called him home.
His departure left the Gospel Lighthouses family was without a shepherd for about ten months. During this time God continued
to bless the members as they patiently prayed and waited.
God stepped in and blessed them with a new leader who currently serves as the Pastor of Gospel Lighthouse; District Elder
John L. Marble, Sr. a man that preaches the Word of God; along with his wife Evangelist Shelia Marble a couple that has a love
for the people of God.
