Crossroads values....

Crossroads values……

We had a fantastic service yesterday at Crossroads Community Church, with a highlight being a gentleman from the community testifying that he thanks God for Crossroads Church plant in the Mablauwuni community as it has enabled their eyes to be “opened” to God and all that He is going to do. Just wonderful!

Stephen Manhanga then shared on our Vision and Values which were divided into 3 parts: Absolutes, preferences and non-essentials.

Our Values are:
1. The Lordship of Jesus Christ
2. The power and the presence of the Holy Spirit
3. The final authority of the word of God
4. Grace
5. Pioneering then Pastoral
6. The priesthood of all believers
7. Home Cell groups
8. Transparent, down to earth leadership
9. Apostolic and Prophetic foundations
10. Cross-cultural expressions
11. Church planting
12. Remembering the Poor
13. Kingdom people
14. Healthy families and raising Godly children
15. Generous
16. Prayerful
17. Worshipping
18. Evangelism
19. Added and devoted
20. Open to change

There was a question and answer time afterwards and the participation was good. It’s wonderful when the church feel so free to ask questions in a safe environment. May God continue to grow the church spiritually and numerically.
