Acceptance Worship Center Ministry
John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Many Churches have strong beliefs about certain topics which exclude believers from their churches.
By God's grace, we will be an inclusive ministry. This is a ministry that will have a charismatic/Pentecostal way of worship. We commit ourselves to being a Ministry for all people and, in Christ; we celebrate and embrace the rich diversity of God's good creation. We will teach in word and deed the equality and dignity of all God's people.
We declare ourselves to be a Ministry open to all who seek to worship God with us. We affirm the worth and dignity of every person created by God and redeemed by Jesus Christ. We accept into fellowship all persons who desire renewal in the Spirit of God. Therefore, we seek to be a fully inclusive community of faith, sharing bread and cup with all who see in Christ in our future. We believe that God desires our oneness with all people, everywhere.
We acknowledge that we are often less inclusive than we are called to be. Therefore, we will intentionally reach out into the community and the world, and lovingly invite all to Christ, and to participate fully in the ordering of our common life.
We acknowledge that we sometimes find it difficult to accept the gifts that others bring. Therefore, we will seek to be open to those gifts, learn from them, and at the leading of the Holy Spirit, be transformed by them.
We acknowledge that God created the world in great diversity. We celebrate this diversity, and united in Christ, we will reach toward it.
