Target Audience : Church Networks

Message: Today I stand before you to present a ministry that the Lord has called me to do and you to be a part of. One of the biggest challenges that I believe we have as body is how our local churches speak to the needs of the local communities in which they sit.

History tell us that the divide between the church and its home community comes from a combination of factors, economic sprawl and or gentrification. Mean as the urban community improved economically they cut ties with the place in which they lived in the past. Or as the affluent community started moving people out it contributed to the declination of the relationship.

On top of the circumstances with our economic struggle there is also educational struggle that we have not seemed to find away to address. Here is a test how many educational professional in the room, how many parent whose children are struggling in school in the room?

How many employers in the room? How many people looking for jobs in the room?

How many daycare providers in the room? How many parents need daycare?

The Lord has allowed you to see what I have been looking at my whole life. The only institution in the world that can harness the collective power of a community higher than the school system or government is the church. I am not talking about making money thought money has to be involved  I am talking about repairing the community from the inside out.

House of Hope

A place full of God's glory and good works.

Jesus said " I came that you might have life and life more abundant." My question to us is what is life abundant if I don’t have the means to possess or maintain it?"

I believe this is where the power of Christ body comes into play to be proponent of well living in all of those areas we just mentioned. Spiritually, Naturally, Educationally and occupationally.
