Our Vision

Our vision is to effect our society by introducing Jesus Christ to individuals and allowing Him to do a life changing work in their lives. It is our experience that the transforming work of the Holy Spirit impacts families at the very core as we plant churches in homes. It is therefore our vision to plant churches in homes all across the country of Canada and beyond.

In order to fulfill this vision we have a strategy to win the lost, and to disciple each believer to a place of abundant living, so that they also can take part in the transformation of their society.

We believe in the fulfillment of the Scriptures: “And He Himself (Jesus) gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints, for the work of the ministry, and for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to be a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ” Ephesians 4:11-13.

The Equippers otherwise known as the 5 fold (apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers) have been given to us for this time. We know this because it clearly says in verse 13 that their assignment will not be fulfilled until we all come to the unity of the faith. These mature men and women of God are among us to equip the saints (you and I) to do the work of the ministry.

Unlike some traditional churches where the Pastor does all of the work, we equip each believer to learn the Word of God so that they can have a victorious and fruitful life. Our Evangelists teach each new convert to share the Gospel with other individuals in their communities. Our home group Pastors encourage our people to show the love of God to those around them and teach the people to pastor one another. In this way each Christian is cared for and he/she learns to overcome their problems and then minister to the needs of the hurting around them. Healed people naturally help heal others. As a result we are able to multiply our effectiveness and new home churches, youth cells, children’s cells, men’s groups, women’s groups and marketplace meetings spring forth as believers are equipped and released.

We use our home meetings, a monthly team meeting, and quarterly seminars to equip and train the saints for the work of the ministry. With this strategy we will fulfill the Great Commission in our nation and beyond.
