Our goal is to make disciples of the nations. We desire that as many souls as possible be won for Christ, that they be rooted in a solid foundation to remain in Him, and that they in turn may respond to the call of every child of God: the ministry of reconciliation, becoming effective witnesses for Christ.
We believe that Christ’s return is closer than ever, and we want our time to be invested in reaching the nations. We do not believe that God limits us to a single location; wherever we are, we can bear fruit for the Kingdom of God.
Practically, we are active on the mission field, preaching the Gospel in the streets, public places, and in countries or regions where sometimes no one else is willing to go. We train disciples both theoretically and practically in the mission, living alongside people and serving God together with them, and we plant Christian communities. What matters to us is not building our name or our ministry, but expanding and strengthening the body of Christ.
We desire to represent Christ, reveal His heart, and allow more people to know Him as we know Him. The Kingdom of God is built on relationships; it is a family that we are building.
Notre objectif est de faire des nations des disciples. Nous désirons que le plus grand nombre possible d’âmes soient gagnées pour Christ, qu’elles soient enracinées dans une fondation solide et fortifiées pour demeurer en Lui, afin qu’elles puissent à leur tour répondre à l’appel des enfants de Dieu : le ministère de la réconciliation, en devenant des témoins efficaces de Christ. Nous croyons que le retour de Christ est plus proche que jamais, et nous voulons que notre temps soit investi à atteindre les nations. Nous ne croyons pas que Dieu nous limite à un seul lieu ; où que nous soyons, nous pouvons porter du fruit pour le Royaume de Dieu.
Concrètement, nous sommes présents sur le terrain missionnaire, annonçant l’Évangile dans les rues, les lieux publics, ainsi que dans des pays ou des régions où parfois personne d’autre n’ose aller. Nous formons des disciples de manière théorique et pratique dans la mission, en vivant aux côtés des gens et en servant Dieu avec eux, et nous implantons des communautés chrétiennes. Ce qui nous importe, ce n’est pas de bâtir notre nom ou notre ministère, mais d’agrandir et de fortifier le corps de Christ.
Nous désirons représenter Christ, dévoiler Son cœur et permettre à davantage de personnes de Le connaître tel que nous Le connaissons. Le Royaume de Dieu repose sur les relations ; c’est une famille que nous construisons.
