CHURCH PLANTING AND MINISTRIES
- Our goal is to plant Independent Baptist New Testament local churches. Ministries provided by the church to the community would be: Bible preaching, teaching, discipleship, Bible Institute, youth outreach and family ministries. The establishment of a strong local church where men will be trained and sent out is our first objective.
- Our desire is to take the gospel to the unreached people groups of Zambia and to train men in the word of God so they may be sent out to reach even more Zambians.
YOUTH OUTREACH THROUGH SPORTS EVANGELISM
- The rise in HIV infections on the Zambian youth cannot be ignored. We believe the best way to save lives is not only through awareness campaigns, but by targeting the younger generation who is the future of Zambia with the gospel. This ministry will consist of sports activities, biblical counselling and discipleship for; teens, young adults and orphans of AIDS victims with the emphasis of spiritual regeneration.
- KITWE – Church planting ministries: Help reorganize the Grace Baptist Church. DONE (Praise the LORD!)
- LUSAKA – Urban church planting and youth outreach. The City of Lusaka is the capital city and heartbeat of the country. Our goal is to have the Hillcrest Baptist Church planted in the heart of the city. To be a beacon of the light of the gospel and sound biblical teaching. We hope the Lord will use this church to be a pillar of hope for the lost and a place of equipping for the saints.
CAMP AND LODGING MINISTRY
Chongwe Camp Ministry is of a vital importance to Churches in Zambia. Most young people do not have the opportunity of going to a bible camp. A very small percentage of Zambians come from Christian homes or saved households. This makes it very difficult for young people to live for the Lord in their homes. Some parents/ husbands will not permit their children or wife to read the bible in the house. They consider it a waste of time and believe the wife should be attending to the husband, while the children should be working around the house and focused on school. Therefore, building a camp facility where children, young people and adults can go for a whole week or weekend is a vital need to reaching households.
Lodging or Housing ministry is something that will be at the facility. Many times we receive new missionaries who need a place to stay before they purchase property or move on to their field. This will provide housing for these families until they’re ready to move on. This will also accommodate mission teams, guest speakers as a ministry to the Lord’s servants.
