Partnerships & Connections - One Church Ministries
"It was [Christ] 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
As a church, we believe in the importance of the Christ-given ministries of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. In particular, we welcome the visionary, foundation-laying, master-builder gifting of the apostle towards us. In this regard we look to John Lalgee. John leads One Church Ministries, which exists to provide the care and equipping of local churches by Ephesians 4 ministries. Its goal is:
- To bring to maturity and effectively care for churches with which John and the Ephesians 4 ministries connected to him have a direct relationship.
- To influence the wider Church by way of resource and example.
- To raise up and release others with recognized Ephesians 4 ministries for the building up of the Church at large.
