| 3: Disciple followers of Jesus The overall characteristic of people in this church is that they would be supremely in love with Jesus evidenced by obedience to Him in every area of their lives. When going through trial they would turn to Jesus for strength and loving other Christians as Christ loves us. End result would be full maturity or a very healthy church. Matt 28: 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Ephesians 4:13 until 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.

| 4: Develop True Fellowship I see a group of people who come together, large or small, with a devotion to one common person and his_cause - Jesus. I see this Christian fellowship devoted to a comradeship through all kinds of difficulties and battles and good times. I see that Christian fellowship expressing caring concern for others needs. The result is continual encouragement, comfort and challenge to glorify God. Heb 10 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. 25 Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another— and all the more as you see the Day approaching. Acts 2: 4211 They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Ladies Night, Food and Fellowship |

| 5: Minister to Peoples' Needs We see that Ministry is people serving others by touching each other -with acts of kindness- doing good in word and deed. It is action oriented where every follower of Christ has a job (ministry) and are not "unemployed or underemployed. " It is a very broad range services. It can be a cup of cold water to some major miracle. I want people to see they can minister and are a necessary part of a healthy body. People who are eager to help one another. Mammoth growth in maturity and depth in the knowledge of Christ will result. Tit 3:14 Our people must learn to devote themselves to doing what is good, in order that they may provide for daily necessities and not live unproductive lives. Eph. 4: 12-16 to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 13 until we all reach unit)' 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. 14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
