Jericho Crossing CareNet: a transformational community
- We are a network of believers
- Reaching out to kids at risk
- Especially teens at risk
- Through church-related, community based integral ministries that share the gospel in word and deed.
- We form transformational communities where:
- Lost young people find friendship, educational opportunity, and are being transformed by the gospel of Christ
- Believers share their faith with others in word and deed, and in turn are being transformed in by the word in action
- The community at large is being transformed by a growing presence of believers who live out the meaning of obedience to Jesus command to activley ‘love your neighbors as yourself.’
- The Bible describes such a transformational community:
- Everyone felt a sense of awe because they saw God at work
- Believers were devoted to biblical teaching, prayer, and real koininia (fellowship)
- They shared resources as circumstances required
- Each believer contributed their unique abilities to the good of all
- And God was adding to their number daily those who were being saved
