Mark & Jemima Varughese
Kingdomcity – A Relational, Vibrant, Growing Church Movement.
Together with a passionate team of leaders and staff, Mark and Jemima pastor Kingdomcity — a global church family born from a bold vision to bring the reality of God to our world.
Founded by Mark in 2006, Kingdomcity has grown into a thriving movement with 47 physical locations across 30 countries in Asia, Australia, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. They also pioneered Kingdomcity School, an accredited Christian online school for K–12 students, and Kingdomcity Communications, a media ministry creating life-changing content viewed by millions worldwide.
Fuelled by faith, risk, and the power of the Holy Spirit, they continue to plant churches and raise disciples who transform nations.
Mark Varughese
Founder
Mark’s journey began in 2003 when he left his legal career to pursue full-time ministry in a local church in Perth, Australia. In 2005, he had a personal encounter with God in what he describes as “his burning bush” experience. In response to what he believed God told him, he left Australia, bought a one-way ticket to Malaysia, and planted what is now Kingdomcity, in April 2006.
Mark authored his first book “Ready, Fire! Aim”, which captures his personal journey and Kingdomcity story on paper. It is an inspiring life story interwoven with a common thread of faith and risk and it is available for purchase here. Apart from preaching on stage, you would also often find Mark on the piano. He works closely with the worship team and has written multiple songs that continues to give powerful and passionate musical expression to God-centred worship in Kingdomcity.
