Guided by the annual theme, ‘Unleashed to Live a Life Worthy of Your Calling’, the Church has remained steadfast in its primary quest to equip and release its members to impact their respective spheres with the values and principles of the Kingdom of God. This focus has ensured that our mission remains not within the four walls of the church, but a community of holy people walking in love and advancing into the world with the Gospel of salvation.
During the year, the Church made remarkable strides in the core areas of our calling, especially in soul winning, water baptism, church planting, the baptism of the Holy Spirit and community transformation through target group ministry initiatives undertaken by various groups and individual members.
Beyond our spiritual growth, our social ministry has remained a beacon of hope to many underserved communities. We have prioritised the provision of quality education and healthcare, increased access to clean water, and implemented livelihood-empowerment programmes to uplift both individuals and their wider communities. This holistic approach to ministry has been further strengthened by the diligent work of various boards and committees, all of whom have demonstrated a deep commitment to advancing the Vision 2028 mandate.
Furthermore, the year was marked by a powerful move of the Spirit, evidenced by significant healings, deliverance, and miracles. These divine interventions continue to confirm the Lord’s presence among us, and a selection of these testimonies is documented for your encouragement in Section 4.14 of this report.
