GCI (Grace Communion International, essentially the group that originally ran the new Worldwide Church of God) announced that it has a new building:<\/p>\n

Posted by GCI Weekly Update on April 26, 2017<\/p>\n

God has answered our prayers! On April 20, we finalized purchase of the office building shown below. Sometime next year, we\u2019ll move GCI\u2019s denominational Home Office from Glendora, CA, to this building located in the Charlotte, NC, area. Thanks for your prayers concerning the search and purchase process. Please now pray about the logistics involved in the move.<\/p>\n

So now GCI and LCG<\/a> are headquartered in the same city, as both relocated from Southern California. The old Worldwide Church of God had been based out of Pasadena, California (to see what it looked like as well as what was left there several months ago, check out Joyce’s Pictures of the Pasadena Campus of Ambassador College and the former Headquarters of the old Worldwide Church of God<\/a>). Then after the Tkach falling away (see The Falling Away: The Bible and WCG Teachings<\/a>), it moved to Glendale, California and changed its name and became GCI.<\/p>\n

GCI basically has repudiated most Church of God doctrines and now is essentially a Protestant denomination.<\/p>\n
