COMMUNITYSHIP BROCHURE

WHAT IS A REAL LIFE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY? A Real Life Christian Community is a group of saved people, numbering not less than 40 but not more than 120, bonded together by the following Christian values: single purpose, selfless pursuit, smallgroup perspective, servant posture, steady progress and a shining proclamation. We believe 40 people is the beginning of community, while 120 is the maximum number for any group to still experience community. Each Real Life Christian Community is a self-contained social environment where a Christian can meet most if not all of his or her pastoral care needs such as the need for comfort in times of sickness, material assistance, spiritual growth and ministry empowerment (CARE). A Real Life Christian Community is a purpose-driven organization. It seeks to fulfill the purpose of God for His people through the power of the Holy Spirit and the guidance of the word of God. This involves winning the lost to faith in Christ, integrating them into the community, and nurturing them until they grow, mature and multiply.

WHY DO YOU NEED TO JOIN A REAL LIFE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY? It takes a real community to grow a Christian! Each person is like a seed. A seed can only grow if it is placed in a good nurturing soil or environment. It needs

enough sunshine and rain, and also a rich soil. It needs tender loving care in order to grow and bear fruit. In the same manner, you are like a seed that needs a good Christian environment in order to grow. A Real Life Christian Community is that place for you to grow and serve the Lord.
