United Around Mission

When pastor and people unite around the mission of the church . . .

. . . God’s presence is sensed.  He freely works to bring about good and salvation.  The people of God rejoice in the miracles He performs, in the conversions that take place and in the observed spiritual growth.  The congregation maintains peace, unity and fellowship.  God’s people look for ways to serve in the community.

. . . The morale of the congregation remains strong.  Excitement comes quicker, easier and stays longer.  The reasons for togetherness are obvious.  The purposes of worship, study, and prayer are compelling.

But how do churches achieve that level of agreement and unity? For a teaching resource on Team Building for Success go to www.missionevangelism.org.  Click on Church Renewal/Training Modules/Team Building for Success.
