THE GCN VISION
Through online meetings: -
1. Assist with local churches to disciple Christians of all shapes and sizes; including “pre-Christians” and those who for one reason or another are presently un-churched
2. Raise and mentor leaders, releasing and empowering them apostolically and prophetically
3. Facilitate a movement of viable, global, indigenous church planting, new ministry birthings and missionary endeavours
THE GCN CALL & MANDATE
Over the last year, solely by the grace and mercies of The LORD, we have seen a growth in impact, energy and activity in the ministries of those in the IPAA (Inter Prophetic & Apostolic Alliance) www.ipaaglobal.org family as we have worked toward carrying out our vision.
As we enter into the post-covid era, we wish to take the freedom released by and inherent in apostolic and prophetic ministries and use the grace on them to empower all believers; focusing not just on those called to apostolic-prophetic ministry but on all forms of ministry of all shapes, sizes and callings.
Vital aspects of IPAA's vision are to 'facilitate the synergy that comes from the linking of apostles with prophets' and to 'see apostolically- and prophetically-linked churches and ministries raised up'.
History and experience record that without kingdom truth, order and heavenly vision in place church leaders often can unwittingly succumb to a mind-set of simply gathering people and inadvertently constricting their visions rather than releasing individuals into their God-given callings and ministries.
By linking the pastoral, teaching and evangelical ministries to the apostolic and prophetic, a key purpose of the church, which is to equip, empower and release mature disciples, will be fulfilled.
