Our story began with, and continues to be, the desire to display God’s glory in our community and point them to Jesus.

We began as Cincinnati Urban Ministry Outreach, founded by Pastor James (Pat ) Pugh and the Churches of Christ. Pastor LaMarqué D. Ward Sr. is the successor of Pastor Pugh. In 2023, under new leadership, the Lord called the ministry in a different direction and the name was changed to The Exchange Kingdom Fellowship.

As the story continues, the vision that leads this fellowship is the belief that any life can be transformed and redeemed under the power of God.
