The Mission Statement of

SonRise Faith Christian Church and International Outreach Center

Amos 3:3 in the King James Version of the Bible reads as follows: “Can two walk together, except that they be agreed?” The clear implication is that they cannot. The word “agreed” in the Hebrew is yawad, which means oneness in fellowship, betrothal, concert, and unity. We need to see that to walk together in unity and harmony, agreement is two-dimensional. The first dimension deals with the direction in which we go, (VISION). The second dimension deals with the spirit in which we go, (HEARTBEAT). Thus, to walk together in agreement requires unity both in direction and in spirit; the same vision and heartbeat.

Purpose: (Our Heartbeat - Why we are here) To Reach the Lost, Heal the Wounded and Broken Hearted, Disciple Believers, and Equip Leaders with the Uncompromised Word of God.

• Encourage men and women by providing Godly inspiration through books, the spoken word and other inspired outlets that will motivate individuals to live holy and prosperous lives.  Romans 8:28-29
• Empower individuals by revealing who they really are in Christ Jesus; and teaching them that they have been created in His image and fashioned by the Potter Himself.  Helping people to unleash God's power in their lives by adhering to and trusting in the principles & promises established in the Holy Bible.  Gen 1:27; Ps 119:73; Isa 64:8
• Enrich the meaning of peoples lives by assisting them to live dedicated, purposed driven, spirit filled, fruitful and prosperous despite adversity.  We are the salt that adds flavor to the world.  Colossians 1:9-11; Ps. 20:4-5; Matt 5:13
• Equip God's chosen vessels with needed resources that are scripturally based in order to pursue and overtake all that God has for them while living this life.  Isaiah 42:16

Objective: (Goals)To minister to the total man and community. Our goals are to be apostolic, prophetic, evangelistic, pastoral, and teaching (Ephesians 4:10-16).

• Goal 1: Apostolic - reaching the world with the Gospel by being a training, sending, supporting body; i.e., mission (long-term), by establishing churches as the Holy Spirit directs (short-term), and by parenting those works.
• Goal 2: Prophetic - abiding as an anointed, revelatory, end-time church in our worship experience (praise, worship, instruments); in our prayer life (bands of intercessors); in our “Word” ministry (the gifts of the Spirit in operation in an orderly way).
• Goal 3: Evangelistic - reaching the lost locally with the Gospel through monthly community services (inviting friends to services), through camps, through sports, through other adult and teen activities.
• Goal 4: Pastoral - loving, caring, tending, and restoring by hands-on pastoral care from Pastors, Elders, Deacons, by home cell groups; by development of a sound counseling ministry; by establishing new believers; by leadership development, thus increasing our pastoral care; by youth, women’s , and men’s ministries.
• Goal 5: Teaching - providing biblical, balanced, spiritual, relevant teaching through relevant Sunday morning and Sunday evening teaching, through Discipleship Group efforts, in Foundational Bible Classes, and through Christian education for every age.

"The leader seeks to communicate his vision to his followers. He captures their attention with his optimistic intuition of possible solutions to their needs. He influences them by the dynamism of his faith. He demonstrates confidence that the challenge can be met, the need resolved, the crisis overcome."
