History of the Assemblies of God in Bulgaria

The Pentecostal movement in Bulgaria traces its history to Nicholas Nikoloff, who started an official registration in 1928. After the Communist Party came to power, the government discouraged religion and supervised religious practice. In 1989, the reform government affirmed the rights of all citizens to practice their religion.

The Pentecostal Church of Bulgaria just celebrated their 70th anniversary last November.
