MISSION IN KEZI

From The Nations To The Nations
From The Kezi Community To The Surrounding Communities.
It is TIME for CHANGE!
As a church - Crossroads Community Church, we have mission on our heart. It is our desire to see people that are passionate for God being sent into the surrounding communities and planting vibrant, Bible-based churches.

Part of the congregation come from Ebenezer Agricultural Training Centre. These young people come from communities surrounding Crossroads Community Church and Ebenezer Agricultural Training Centre. What an opportunity we have to share Christ and equip people who feel God calling them back to their community. The potential of planting new churches in the surrounding communities is very exciting as we envision explosive, radical community transformation as people are saved and added to the local churches.
As John Hosier says in “Christ’s Radical Church” (p. 199 – 200) that “again and again it has been found that church planting is the most effective way to break into a new area……..The family of God is really and visibly present, it begins to extend God’s rule into the community; the fruit of the evangelism is contained.”
The church needs to have a vision for mission. “The New Churches are churches on a mission that together with other parts of the body of the Kingdom to all nations, plant churches in all people groups and see the rule of God extended to the ends of the earth.” (p. 203) “Christ’s Radical Church” by John Hosier.

Testimony
One of the apprentices and up-coming leaders at Crossroads Community Church, Mxwayisi Dube, had a life-changing encounter with Jesus Christ last year. His whole life-style has changed and he is passionate for the things of God. His hunger for the scriptures is evident in his speech, his faithfulness in attending services and his every free moment is spent searching the scriptures. His sister, Sisasenkosi, drawing card to Ebenezer was in seeing the complete change in her brother and desiring to experience God in an intimate way. Mxwayisi is being trained to lead services and he is leading 2 Cell groups. How is that possible? He leads a group on Wednesday evening and he initiated leading a group of 13 teenagers on a Sunday afternoon. Mxwayisi is also part of the ‘set-ups’ team that gets the church ready for services on Sundays. What a “fired-up” young man he is.

More exciting news is that Mxwayisi goes to his home in Njelele every 4th week. Njelele is about 6 – 7 hours walk from Ebenezer Training Centre. Whilst at home, he gathers people from the neighbouring homes and holds Cell meetings. His enthusiasm and fervor come straight from His relationship with God. He will NEVER be the same again.
