Client Background
Household of Christ (HOC) was established and planted in September 2003 by lead pastors Bernard and Belinda Mulder. The first service saw 20 chairs packed out in their home. After 2 months HOC moved into in the Magister’s Hall and from there to the Round Table Hall in Pretoria. The church moved into Die Wilgers Hoërskool in 2006 where the first 100 chairs were packed out. In December 2014, God opened another door and HOC as we signed an “offer to purchase” on a piece of land in Mooikloof to establish our 1000+ seater ‘forever-home’, a solid base, and a permanent place of worship for Household of Christ.
