About our
name
“STREETCORNERS”
"MINISTRIES" We believe the love of God is to be shown to all those around us. We believe God has called us to show God's love through various ministries, thus we have the name Streetcorners Ministries. We desire to be sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit as to what these ministries are. The scripture verse "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends since God so loved us, we ought to love one another." 1 John 4:10,11 NIV compels us to tell people of Jesus Christ but we are also commanded "Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and with truth." 1 John 3:18 NIV. So we reach out to all those around us and proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ through word and deed. Where do we go?? To the Streetcorners. Streetcorners is just a symbolic word to represent every place where people are. We need to go to them--build relationships, listen, encourage, and in all we do, offer the invitation of Christ. The invitation goes out wherever there is a faithful messenger. Our challenge is to take every opportunity to share Christ and to challenge people to consider their eternal destiny right where they are at. We desire to be faithful messengers, and to take the invitation to all who will hear. Our ministries are explained more fully on the web page Who Are We? |
