OUR MISSION:  Impacting All People with the Love and Power of Christ Jesus

How will we do this? By encouraging people to…

CONNECT:

As Christians we are called to believe but also to belong.

Romans 12:5 “So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.”

At Tauranga Elim Church one of the best ways to connect as a family is through our Life Groups where we can do life together; learn together, pray together and have fun together. It is in our Life Groups that true relationship starts to takes place and we encourage everyone to become part of a Life Group.

SERVE:

Our vision is to serve God and the community.

1 Peter 4:10 “Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.”

Ministry is using your gifts to serve others in the church. There are many ways to do this, for example on Sunday we have service teams involved in car parking, welcoming, making coffees, auditorium ushers and many more. Ministry teams for children, youth, creative arts and community outreach such as Street Reach where we feed the homeless and Tiny Boppers music event for parents/caregivers with young children also operate through out the week.

EMPOWER:

Jesus who was empowered and anointed by the Holy Spirt wanted His disciples to also be empowered and anointed by the Holy Spirit so as to empower believers to do as He had done and in being His witnesses.

Acts 1:8 NIV
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Jesus is the greatest leader ever to walk on the earth. He called His disciples to follow Him and they did. As a church we are committed to seeing people follow Jesus in being empowered by the Holy Spirit in loving God and loving others. We will encourage others how to hear His voice through spending time with God daily through praise, worship, prayer and reading the bible. We believe that the Holy Spirit empowers us to walk in freedom and anoints believers to heal the sick, and set people free.  The gifts of the Holy Spirit empowers believers to be a blessing to others.
