Strategies for September 2024
The Challenges:
1. We will provide more outreach and evangelism efforts in the community.
-Mark 16:15: “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.”
2. We will provide needed support and nurturing for individuals who have come to faith in Christ. I will encourage members to Win Souls, Keep Souls, Train Souls to Win Souls!
-Hebrews 10:24-25: “And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”
3. I will provide opportunities for needed training and equipping of believers to effectively share their faith and be ambassadors for Christ.
– 2 Timothy 2:2: “And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.”
Motto:“Win Souls, Keep Souls, Train Souls to Win Souls!”
Mission:“Empowering Lives, Transforming Communities: Winning, Keeping, and Equipping Souls for Christ” (see more…)
