United Christian Fellowship of Churches is a Christ-Centered, Interdenominational, Radically Inclusive Spiritual Family of Churches.
Our mission is to build up the body of Christ, seeking after those who are often marginalized, hurt and ostracized from traditional fellowship settings and leadership and presenting Christ in a contemporary fashion.
Our further mission is to provide a safe haven and place of nurturing and spiritual growth by the teaching and proclamation of the Holy Word of God.
We want our fellowship to be a ministry whose members both in their lives together and separately as individuals put into the effect the three-fold priorities of God first, God’s family second, and God’s work in the world third. While realizing that these are biblically mandated from God, we are not fixed in our expressions of these mandates but in a growing process as we are led by the Holy Spirit (Romans 12:1-2)
We want a dynamic relationship with the Lord and HIS word.
Therefore
We participate in joining together to celebrate and to worship the Lord through preaching, singing, communion, giving, prayer, praise and sharing the Lord’s word and His works
(1Chronicles 16:27-29)
We believe it is scriptural to train believers
Therefore
We participate in the process of equipping leaders for the work of ministry through fellowship activities and training experiences as the needs arise
(Ephesians 4:11-13)
We participate in the ministry of overseeing and caring for one another through encouragement and counsel in order to present every person complete in Christ.
We want a dynamic relationship with nonbelievers
Therefore
We participate in outreach to our communities and world through corporate and individual relationships. We pray God to open up doors for the good news of salvation to be expressed and experienced in a realistic, relational and responsible manner
(Matthew 28:19-20)
The scriptural basis for this statement:
“To be active disciples of Christ by attracting and leading the unsaved to Jesus…”
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, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I will be with you always, to the very end of the age
(Matthew 28:19-20)
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth
(Acts 1:8)
“…challenging each Christian to dedicate himself to the ministry.”
Therefore I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not confirm any longer to the pattern of this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is, his good, pleasing and perfect will
(Romans 12:1-2)
“…and to stimulate an atmosphere for Christian maturity which results in reaching out to others by Spirit filled believers.”
It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up 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
(Ephesians 4:11-13)
“… and a personal ministry serving our Cities and beyond.”
Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field’
(Matthew 9:35-38)
