This Church Needs You !
Have you asked God what your calling is in life ? - what your
calling is in the church ? We need volunteers to help build this
new church, but we would encourage you to ask God what your calling
is and seek to fulfil that.
The understanding that "we are called" and "we
are sent" is at the foundation of our faith. The scriptures
are full of stories of persons who responded to a call and were
sent on mission for God. Jesus spent his ministry calling persons
and sending them on God's mission (Andrew and Peter, the sons
of Zebedee, Mary and Martha and Lazarus, the woman at the well,
the paralyzed man by the pool, Zacchaeus in the tree, etc.) Jesus
understood himself to be called and sent when he announced to
his hometown synagogue in Nazareth that "the Spirit of the
Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news
to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives
and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor." (Luke 4:18-19)
Jesus summed up the Christian lifestyle in a simple formula -
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all
your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength"
and "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:30)
We are looking for people to help
Manchester Miracle Centre in the following areas
:
intercessors, praise and worship –
singers and musicians, choir members, ushers, welcomers, youth
leaders, Sunday School leaders, people involved in follow-up of
new members, people to take on a leadership role and run membership
classes, evangelism team, people involved in hospitality and catering,
volunteers to run a bookstore/library, cleaners, people able to
set up special events and decorate the church for special occasion,
people with practical skills, carpenters, electricians, people

Serving God as a volunteer will develop leadership skills, and
is an opportunity to make real friends with people in the church.
