ABOUT THE FIVE FOLDÂ MINISTRY
What if  you could know your God-given calling and gifting?
What if you could have answers to questions such as:-
How does God want to use me?
How do I serve God?
How to I participate with God in building his church?
How do I contribute to building up of people for God?
All of these questions are answered when you discover
your God-given gifting and calling.
What if you could know what that is?
We believe the answer to how we are to minister with
God is found in the biblical example Paul instructs for believers.
EPHESIANS 4:11-16 NASB
And He gave some as APOSTLES, and some as PROPHETS,
and some as EVANGELISTS, and some as PASTOR'S and TEACHERS,
- for the EQUIPPING of the saints
- for the WORK of SERVICE,
- to the BUILDING UP of the BODY of CHRIST;
- until we all attain to the UNITY of the FAITH,
