Vision Statement

          OUR MISSION is to glorify God by assisting the churches in winning the 
          lost to Christ, building them up in Christ, and sending them out for Christ.

OUR OBJECTIVES:
            To Proclaim the centrality of Christ as our Savior, Sanctifier, Healer and Coming King
            To Prioritize the ministry of prayer
            To Promote disciplemaking, both locally and world-wide
            To emPower effective leaders
            To  Provide regional relationships

WHAT DOES THIS LOOK LIKE IN OUR LOCAL CHURCHES?

·        Proclaim the centrality of Christ as our Savior, Sanctifier, Healer and Coming King 
We envision
            -  soulwinning that results in sound conversions and lives transformed by the power
               of the Gospel
            -  people experiencing the power of God that delivers from the bondage of sin
            -  people being healed from physical diseases
            -  people clearly seeing the connection between the Second Coming of Christ and
               Missions
            -  membership classes emphasizing the Four-Fold Gospel and Alliance Polity  

·        Prioritize prayer
We envision
            -  every Official Worker having “Partners in Prayer”
            -  every Church having a consistent, vibrant prayer ministry
            -  every Church having special times of prayer when special needs arise
            -  visitors knowing after one month that prayer is the priority in this Church

·        Promote Evangelism, locally and world-wide
     We envision
            -  rejoicing over each sinner who repents
            -  celebrating every time someone leads a person to Christ for the first time
            -  a 10% assimilated conversion rate
            -  evangelism training provided on a regular basis
            -  having commissioning services (e.g., sending students who are preparing for ministry;
               short term missions trips; sending out pastor/missionary; sending core group to begin a
               new church, etc.)
            -  the number of pledges and the percentage of the giving that goes to Great Commission
               Fund is continually growing (20% is a minimum goal for the percentage of giving)

·        emPower lay leaders
     We envision
            -  recognizing, affirming and encouraging effective leadership
            -  developing “apprentice” leadership positions in all areas of ministry
            -  equipping workers -- some of them will rise to the surface as leaders

·        Provide Regional Relationships
We envision
            -  each licensed Official Worker seeing his/her part in the larger ministry to other
               churches according to giftedness, personality and passion
            -  each Church giving/receiving interdependent ministry to/from churches in the
               Region
