Altar Call (Romans 10:9-10)
The Altar Call is a moment of decision and commitment to Christ. Based on Romans 10:9-10, it’s an invitation to confess Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. This practice provides an opportunity for individuals to respond to the Gospel message, seeking salvation and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Anointing Service (James 5:14)
Anointing with oil is a practice rooted in James 5:14. We believe in the healing and consecrating power of anointing. It’s a moment of faith and surrender, where we seek God’s supernatural touch.
Evangelism/Soul Winning (Matthew 28:19-20)
The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19-20 commands us to share the Gospel and make disciples of all nations. We are dedicated to reaching out to others, sharing the message of salvation, and inviting them to experience the love and grace of Christ.
Fasting & Prayer (Matthew 6:16-18)
Fasting and prayer are powerful disciplines that bring us closer to God. Fasting humbles us and sharpens our focus on seeking God’s guidance and intervention in our lives. It’s a time of spiritual renewal and self-denial, as taught by Jesus in Matthew 6:16-18.
Feet Washing (John 13:14-17)
Feet washing is a profound act of humility and servitude. It reminds us of Christ’s example when He washed His disciples’ feet, as recorded in John 13:14-17. This practice teaches us to serve one another with love and humility.
Holy Communion (1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
Holy Communion, or the Lord’s Supper, is a sacred practice where we remember Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. It’s a proclamation of His death and a sign of our unity as believers, following the instructions in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26.
Tithes & Offering (Malachi 3:10)
Giving tithes and offerings is our act of obedience to God’s command in Malachi 3:10. It’s not just a financial transaction but an expression of our trust in God’s provision and a way to support the work of the Lord.
Water Baptism (Matthew 28:19)
Baptism by immersion is a symbolic act of identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection, following His mandate in Matthew 28:19. It marks our commitment to a new life in Christ.
