Zion Christian University was founded by Dr. Brian J. Bailey and the Board of Directors to serve as an international Pentecostal university that seeks to educate and prepare Christian leaders. Zion Christian University is affiliated with Zion Fellowship International, a Pentecostal association of pastors, missionaries, churches, and Bible schools, whose headquarters are located in Waverly, New York. Over the past 20 years, by God’s grace, Zion Fellowship’s ministry has spread to nearly every continent of the world.
