Our Vision

A Faithful Church for a Faithful Mission

Our vision is to be a faithful, Christ-centered, Scripture-shaped local church that makes a lasting gospel impact in Lusaka, Zambia, and beyond.

 

We desire to see:

Individuals Transformed

People from every background coming to know Jesus Christ, growing in grace, and living lives shaped by the gospel.

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”
— 2 Corinthians 5:17

See also: Romans 12:2; Ephesians 2:8–10.


 

Families Strengthened

Homes strengthened by God's Word, where Christ is honored and biblical faith is passed on to the next generation.

“But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
— Joshua 24:15

See also: Deuteronomy 6:6–7; Ephesians 6:4; Psalm 78:5–7.


 

Believers Maturing

Christians growing in biblical knowledge, spiritual maturity, holiness, love, and faithful service.

“We are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ.”
— Ephesians 4:15

See also: Colossians 1:28; 2 Peter 3:18; Philippians 1:9–11.


 

Leaders Developed

Faithful men and women equipped to serve Christ and His Church, with biblically qualified men raised up to shepherd local congregations.

“What you have heard from me... entrust to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.”
— 2 Timothy 2:2

See also: Ephesians 4:11–12; 1 Timothy 3:1–13; Titus 1:5–9.


 

Churches Planted

Healthy, Bible-preaching churches established in communities where the gospel is needed.

“And when they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned... strengthening the souls of the disciples.”
— Acts 14:21–22

See also: Matthew 28:19–20; Titus 1:5; Acts 13:1–3.


 

Communities Impacted

Communities experiencing the faithful witness of Christians who serve with compassion, integrity, humility, and love.

“Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”
— Matthew 5:16

See also: Micah 6:8; Galatians 6:10; 1 Peter 2:12.


 

Our desire is not simply to become a larger church, but to become a more faithful church—faithful to Christ, faithful to His Word, faithful to one another, and faithful to the mission He has entrusted to His Church.

“The church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.”
— 1 Timothy 3:15
