We Are An Equipping Church
An Equipping Church lives out the biblical calling from Ephesians 4:11 - 13 (NIV)  11It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, 12to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
An Equipping Ministry Is Where:
▪ People will be prepared, connected and equipped for service unto God,
▪ Pastors and people ministering together,
▪ Leaders are primarily equippers, not doers,
▪ Develops intentional pathways for growing and developing people,
▪ Equipping Ministry will move you from sitting to serving!
▪ An Equipping Ministry goes beyond volunteer mobilization or recruitment, and truly value
every member as a minister, living out their unique God-ordained role as part of the
Priesthood of all Believers.
Core Values of Equipping Ministry
