In general, the movement is recognized from the time Agnes Ozman receive the gift of tongues (glossolalia) at a prayer meeting at Bethel Bible College in Topeka, Kansas, in 1901. Parham, a Methodist pastor background, formulated the doctrine that tongues are "biblical proof" of the baptism of the Holy Spirit.Pentecostal movement emerged in Europe but also appeared in North America around 1906. This movement originally appeared in the Methodist movement who wish to return to the excitement and simplicity are reiterated to the sudden conversion of the ideals of the Methodist revival and Christian perfection as recommended in Wesley's theology. In the development of this movement adherents formed their own organization. In 1900 one of the leaders of the movement, Ch. F. Parham (the origin of the Methodist Church and out) to develop three points of doctrine which later became characteristic of the Pentecostal movement in general, namely the pressure on eschatology, the baptism with the Spirit and the spiritual gifts, especially the gift of tongues, as a sign someone has received Spirit baptism.Parham left Topeka and start a revival ministry that brought him to the Azusa Street Revival by William J. Seymour who became his pupil at the school in Houston. Seymour, because he is a black man, then only allowed to sit outside the classroom to listen to lectures.This movement extends the beginning of the Azusa Street Revival, on April 9, 1906 in the home of Edward Lee in Los Angeles. He described his experience filled with the Holy Spirit on April 12, 1906. On April 18, 1906, the Los Angeles Times reported this movement on the front page.

When the Pentecostal Fellowship of North America was formed in 1948, it was entirely made up of Pentecostal denominations white American. Because it did not join the United Pentecostal Church and inter-racial policies persist continuously throughout its history. In 1994, Pentecostal churches are segregated back to the roots of racial them and propose formal unification Pentecostal Church groups of black and white, in a meeting that came to be known as the Phoenix Memphis. This unification occurred in 1998, also in Memphis, Tennessee.
