Our Strategy
• Planning is not an event, but a process
If you stop planning, you stop improving
Build all the bridges, connections,
contacts you can find out what’s going
on in our world.

21. Who Are We?
• Greetings in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. Thank you
for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit our website.
I want you to know that we here at True Vine are excited
about what God is doing in our church. It is my hope that our
ministry will be a valuable tool in bringing you ever closer to
the Lord Jesus Christ.
• WE BELIEVE it is time for the Church to recapture the
dynamic of the first century Church while being relevant in the
twenty-first century. We BELIEVE that we must stay
connected to Jesus and minister to the lost, the hurt, the
wounded, the discouraged, the disconnected, and the dying
world we live in. For this reason we are dedicated to
empowering the present and future generations to fulfill their
God-given destiny.

22. Who Are We?
• Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you, declares
the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to
give you hope and a future” (NIV).
I know you may be asking yourself, “what kind of church is
this?” Well, we are…
• Charismatic in practice: We teach that all gifts of the Spirit
are relevant to today’s church (I Cor. 12-14; Rom. 12:3-8,
Eph. 4:11-16).
• Pentecostal in favor: We teach and believe in the Holy Spirit.
We believe that the Church is empowered through the Holy
Spirit to be agents of God (Acts 1:8).

23. Who Are We?
• Loving in fellowship: We teach that one of the proof of our
discipleship is the love we have for each other (Jn. 13:34-35).
• Evangelistic in Emphasis: We teach and take Jesus’ last
command to go and make disciples of all nations very
seriously (Mt. 28:19-20).
• Bold in faith: We teach and believe that through the help of
the Lord, we can do the impossible, believe in the promises of
God, and expect miracles in the name of Jesus (Lk. 1:37,
18:27).

24. Who Are We?
• Trinitarian in belief: We believe that there is only One
God, who has revealed Himself in three persons: God the
Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.)
• Now you know a little about who we are. We thank you for
the honor and privilege to contribute to your spiritual growth
in the Lord. Know that we are in agreement for all your
needs being met today.
• In the service of the King,
