Cell Group Ministry

PURPOSE STATEMENT

The vision for the Cell Group Ministry is to seek to fulfill Christ's mission by encouraging others with a sense of belonging to God through salvation. To become all they can be as children in Christ by equipping our unsaved friends and relatives for blessing of love, grace, and truth in Jesus Christ.

GOALS

• Stay balanced between being ministered to and ministering to others. Comfort the unsaved with the love of Jesus through sharing the Word of God with them.
• Help develop their knowledge of God and to involve them in creative service under the leadership and guidance of the Holy Spirit.
• Empower each other to become effective believers as well as witnesses for Christ.
• Nurture to become mature in Christ.
• Desire to serve in the ministry that you are called to.
• Locate and identify what that particular work may be.
• Teach the membership to follow the vision of the leadership so that as we grow, so will the physical church grow.
• The overall goal is their salvation and for them to grow in a relationship with the Lord and to serve Him with other Christian brothers and sisters.
