Metro Praise has a 10-fold ministry structure
to fulfill our vision and strategy. We call these "ministries", ministries are a time and place where disciples can get together and "Love God and Love People" and "Connect, Mentor, and Send."
The
ten main ministries are (1)
Services (2) Small Groups (3) Evangelism (4)
Discipleship (5) Fellowship (6) Community Service (7) Prayer Meetings
(8) Bible College (9) Church Planting (10) Mission Trips.
Our ministry structure comes from
Acts 2:42-47,
42 They
devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching (Discipleship/Bible
College) and to the fellowship (Fellowship), to the breaking of
bread and to prayer (Prayer Meetings). 43 Everyone
was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the
apostles. 44 All the
believers were together and had everything in common.
45 Selling
their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need (Community
Service). 46 Every day they
continued to meet together in the temple courts (Services). They broke
bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts (Small
Groups), 47 praising God
and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number
daily those who were being saved (Evangelism/Church Planting/Mission Trips).
Here is the list of our ten main ministries:
1. Services: A time of
fellowship, prayer, worship, preaching, and signs and wonders.
2. Small Groups: A time of
fellowship and Bible study in the home.
3. Evangelism: A time of preaching
God's Word to the lost.
4. Discipleship: A time
of being mentored and discipled to live like Jesus.
5. Fellowship: A time to get together and share fun and fellowship.
6. Community Service: A
time to serve the community with various programs such as "After School
Programs", "Adult Learning Center", and "English as a Second Language".
7. Prayer Meetings: A time to pray and worship God 24/7 in the church and a place where the doors are always open.
8. Fulltime Ministry Training: SUM Bible College uses our church for their campus!
9. Church Planting: We have planted/oversee churches in Mexico and India!
10. Mission Trips: We continue to visit Mexico and India and await for the world!
Metro Praise believes by doing these ministries we can reach the world for JESUS!!
