STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
“To preach the Word of God and to bring people into membership of God’s family; to teach the Word of God to enhance freedom, promote Christian maturity and bind the people to God for service. To live the word of God, to demonstrate the new life in Christ to the World, and ensure the security of the believer”
OUR CORE VALUES
1)
MINISTRY
We need to understand our calling and to know where we fit into in the body of Christ. What gifts and talents has God given you to use in His vineyard? We are empowered to use our gifts and talents to the glory of God. Remember Proverbs 18 16 – ‘A man’s gift makes room for him, And brings him before great men.
2)
EVANGELISM
To fulfil the commission that our Lord Jesus Christ gave us in Matt 28 19 – ‘Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…’
3)
OUTREACH
To communicate God’s word and bring people into the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (Matt.28:18-20; Mk.16:15).
WORSHIP
To live in the light of God’s presence and to celebrate God’s presence in singing, praying, giving, hearing and sharing the Word of God together as believers (John 4:23-24; 1Cor.14:26). Our primary purpose of living is to worship God; acknowledging His greatness in all areas of our lives. We dedicate time to worshipping God for all His goodness and faithfulness.
4)
FELLOWSHIP
To care for one another as a member of the family of God (Eph.2:19; Eph.6:2, 3 and 10; James 5:16). We do not forsake the gathering of the brethren by faithfully attending church services and departmental group activities in order to grow spiritually.
5)
6)
DISCIPLESHIP
To educate God’s people to know their positions and privileges
in God and thereby grow into maturity/perfection (Eph.3:11-16).
7)
SERVICE
To demonstrate God’s love by serving others (Rom.12:6-8;
Gal.5:13).
