Ministry in Action

Kingdom Work

We aim to worship God in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).  Our services are designed with your spiritual needs in mind.

Your love gift to Friendship greatly appreciated and is used with God’s Biblical instruction in mind.

GROWING IN WORSHIP

Worship – As those who love the Lord we gather with other believers and do not “forsake the assembling of ourselves together…” (Hebrews 10:25). We gather at least weekly for praise and worship as we exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and express our individual and corporate love for Him. As we sing praises to Him and express our heart, His presence is experienced, and His Word is received so that together we hear the voice of the Lord regularly.

We Seek an Authentic Relationship with God

GROWING IN MISSIONS

Missions – As those who love the Lord we gather with other believers and do not “forsake the assembling of ourselves together…” (Hebrews 10:25). We gather at least weekly for praise and worship as we exalt the Lord Jesus Christ and express our individual and corporate love for Him. As we sing praises to Him and express our heart, His presence is experienced, and His Word is received so that together we hear the voice of the Lord regularly.is the major work of the Church. We are called to continue the work of the Lord who came to “seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). He gave us The Great Commission which is “to go into all the world and preach the Gospel…” (Matthew 28:18-20) and He cannot return to claim His Church and take us with Him into Heaven until every people group upon the face of the Earth has heard the Good News that Jesus saves (Luke 24:47).  We are called, empowered, and sent to evangelize the world – the whole world – and win people to the Lord.

We Seek to Evangelize the Lost

GROWING IN FELLOWSHIP

Fellowship is important for all believers and especially for new believers. Here the Christian finds encouragement and is strengthened and supported by sharing with others who embrace the same beliefs. The topics of conversation should be centered on Jesus and what He is doing in the individual’s life. This is Christ-centered conversation that encourages each believer to continue to grow and mature in the things of the Lord.

We Seek Christian Relationship With Each Other

GROWING IN DISCIPLESHIP

Discipleship – where we edify the believers by teaching them the basic doctrines and beliefs of the Christian faith. These basic doctrines have been taught for two centuries and are basic to all branches of the Christian Church.  We emphasize the practicality of God’s will for living a Christian life today. The message and the basic beliefs of the Church do not change.

GROWING IN MINISTRY

Ministry -where we are equipped with the Gospel and move forward in learning to serve others supernaturally. The Lord states that the things He did we are also to do daily (John 14:12). We are to serve others supernaturally as He did – healing people, bringing freedom and deliverance, allowing the blind to see, the lame to walk, and the deaf to hear not to mention raising the dead. We serve out of a motivation of love – agape or God’s love flowing through us.
