FELLOWSHIP MINISTRIES

Family and Marriage Counseling Ministry Proverbs 11:14 "Where no counsel is, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety."

With an estimated 67% of all marriages ending in divorce, and a like high number of our children in crisis from these same broken homes or peer pressure in general, this ministry is intended to address the real life attacks and problems of the Christian marriage and family as a whole. Ephesians 6:12 says "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." This marriage ministry will not only help to decrease the number of divorces within the church, but will also further enhance the unity and strength within the institution of marriage that God has ordained. Marriage is God's idea. He established if from the beginning, He even based His relationship with the New Testament church upon the principles of marriage. Ephesians 5:28,29 "So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church."

First Lady's Support Ministry Proverbs 31:11-12 "The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life."

The First Lady's Support Ministry assists the Bishop's wife in ways that will help her to fulfill this ministry role while maintaining her own personal identity and calling. We strive to provide the much needed support (spiritual, emotional and financial) and encouragement that our first lady needs. Our charges include but are not limited to the following:

Keep her in prayer.
Give a word of encouragement and appreciation.
Do something nice for her from time-to-time.
Accompany her, when possible, when she attends various functions and speaking engagements.
Sponsor her annual attendance at a First Lady's Support Conference.
Help defray some of the financial expenses associated with being the First Lady.
Assist in activities that come directly under her role as First Lady.

Men's Ministry I Corinthians 13:11 "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things."

To establish and maintain a strong and very effective outreach system for the men within the body of the Church. To invoke love, enthusiasm and dedication to our Lord and Savior, Jesus The Christ. To encourage and promote spiritual growth through devoted Bible Study in a manner that would elevate our men to the highest level of divine consciousness, allowing them to experience a greater understanding of God's Word. To cultivate and sustain a spirit of excellence within the ministry that would warrant Randall's men worthy to be called the Sons's of God. To become solid and responsible men in our church, home and community.

Women's Ministry Isaiah 58:12 "...and thou shall be called Repairer of the Breach, the restorer of paths to dwell in."
