'My name will be great among the nations, from where the sun rises to where it sets. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to me, because my name will be great among the nations,' says the Lord Almighty.' Mal 1:11

OUR BELIEFS

We are a movement of Christian prayer ministries who believe in the Trinity - the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the authority and infallibility of God's Word; the Virgin Birth, sinless life, deity, crucifixion, and bodily resurrection of Jesus; salvation by grace through faith alone in Jesus Christ, and the physical return of Jesus Christ to earth.

We affirm the Apostle's Creed and the Lausanne Covenant.
