Be empowered to influence the body of Christ, together
About Us
We believe that as we stay separated God’s Kingdom isn’t being built. A divided church is not the solution, it keeps you from walking empowered in the body of Christ. While tending to your own ministry feels safe, in time it can leave you alone and disheartened.
Which is why decades of prayer and unity have culminated into a space where local pastors and ministry leaders can seek God together in a Pure Assembly. We focus on passionately praying for one another, humbly uniting, radically repenting, and earnestly edifying the body.
Here's how you can a part of this movement:
Step 1:
Prioritize
Intentionally prioritize time to invest in your personal growth and in building up your local mission community.
Step 2:
Attend
Join us for meaningful connection by coming to the monthly meetings held every second Thursday at noon.
Step 3:
Connect
Establish life giving, empowering relationships with other pastors and ministry leaders with Christ as the center.
Join PURE Assembly every second Thursday of the month at the Kroc Center in South Bend, Indiana.
Testimonials
I am blessed to gather with like hearted leaders in this region—both brothers and sisters in Christ —who want to gather together to worship the Lord and pray together! It is an encouragement and I look forward to gathering when possible!

Pure Assembly is a ministry in the Michiana area that has been a long term consistent advocate for church unity. When I moved here 10 years ago Pure Assembly held an open meeting at Fourwinds Field which I attended. I later learned of the monthly Pastor’s and Ministry Leader’s Prayer lunch, as my pastor asked me to go on behalf of Southgate Church. These meetings have led to so many ministry partnerships that have been invaluable for myself being a US Missionary in this region. I know that prayer and partnership among local churches is the answer to creating an atmosphere that brings glory to God and will bring true repentance to our nation that is so divided. Unity in the Body of Christ is a witness to the unbeliever that Jesus really is the Prince of Peace.

At Heal the Land at Notre Dame, it was an amazing gathering of believers from many different denominations, united toward one goal: to praise and worship our Lord and pray for healing in the land. I loved the flags and everyone’s unique style of praise, which beautifully encompassed the many different forms of worship.
I love that this ministry has never stopped and continues to do just that!

Here's Our Story
PURE Assembly was created to bring God’s people together in prayer and to pursue biblical unity. Guided by the Holy Spirit, we invited 50 local church and ministry leaders to gather in prayer at Four Winds Field in South Bend for two consecutive years. During these sacred assemblies, leaders from various denominations formed a powerful bond, recognizing their shared need for one another in advancing the name of Christ and His Kingdom.
From this spirit of unity, we launched His Stories on WHME radio to continue sharing testimonies of God’s work across our community.
Seeing the lasting impact of united prayer, PURE Assembly now hosts monthly prayer meetings for ministry leaders. These gatherings were recently moved from Bethel University to the Kroc Center to deepen relationships with urban pastors and foster greater connection within the city.
We invite you to join us in this movement of prayer, unity, and healing—for the glory of Jesus and the good of His Church.
