"Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me." John 17:20-23
Our goals and objectives for the coming year are as follows:
I. To prayerfully invoke the anointing of God into the lives of the Saints, enabling them to meet the challenges of the new millenium victoriously.
II. To coordinate and enrich our Jurisdictional Training Programs.
III. To promote the growth and expansion of the Jurisdiction by establishing at least 50 new churches annually.
IV. To establish uniformity for all state, district, and departmental meetings.
V. To develop a more efficient Communication Information Network.
VI. To provide the Saints of the Jurisdiction with precious keepsake memories of the New Millenium.
VII. To establish financial power for the local church and the Jurisdiction.
VIII. To develop a more effective Missions Department by providing individualized ministry for both home and foreign fields.
It is my prayer that our objectives for the year 2000 will help us develop oneness in the spirit, oneness in purpose, and oneness in action through our commitment to serve the Lord in the beauty of holiness and establish His kingdom here on earth. As we endeavor to leave our comfort zone, let us pray continuously that God will anoint us with wisdom and might, and teach us to use our wings that we soar like eagles to the higher place that He has prepared for us. We are expecting a MITI MOVE of God in the year to come.
