Renewed Mission

We are a church with a renewed sense of mission. Last week the men met and finalised the mission statement of the church, constructed from the thoughts, inputs and brainstorming of all the members gathered the week before (and prayers!)

In current form it now states

"To wholeheartedly seek God, proclaim Christ, and empower to spiritual maturity."

We believe this encompasses all the important properties we discussed the week before, namely to seek and be led by the Spirit of God (ie. to be spiritual, and not of men!), to actively proclaim the gospel to all people, and to ensure we mature all people, through exciting, meaningful, inspirational and educational teaching and counselling. Salvation is an ongoing process!

This revival is separate from the members, and why this mission must belong to the church and not to the individuals, for if one individual falls, another must pick him up. We can not rely on one man or one vision, for as men we are weak, but in Christ we are strong!

Let us therefore build our foundation on Christ, as it states in Ephesians 2:20, "built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord."

WE ARE THAT HOLY TEMPLE!
