Five fold ministry focus

---

 We are committed to being a Church that is Christ-Centered, Bible-Based, and Spirit-Led. Because of this we believe all our of efforts should be centered around these guiding principles. Ephesians 4 speaks of “The Five Fold Ministry” and how God uses these different offices for “the equipping of the saints”. 

At Freedom, we believe in and affirm the Five Fold Ministry Gifts of Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Evangelists, and Teachers. But that's not what our Five-Fold Ministry Focus is about.

We use this concept of "Five-Fold Ministry" to describe the five pillars or areas of focus we believe our Church is assigned and called to.

At Freedom Worship Assembly our ministry focus is Five-Fold:

We Are Empowered for Service through PRAYER

We believe that we can do anything after we pray, but we can do nothing until we pray! We are empowered to do the work of God through our communication with God. We have a Corporate Prayer Meeting every Monday at 7:00pm, we host two 21 Days of Prayer each year, and we offer a weekly Prayer Call each Thursday Morning. Prayer is our priority! 

We Equip the Saints through the WORD

We believe that God has given us everything we need for right living in His WORD! Thus we are committed to being a Word Church. Our Worship Experiences are centered around the preaching and teaching of the Gospel. We offer Freedom Tribes (Small Groups), weekly Bible study, and many other teaching opportunities throughout the year to help people grow in the Word of God! 

We Exalt the Savior through WORSHIP

We believe that we exist to worship and praise our God! We will always be committed to not only being a Word congregation, but being a worshipping congregation as well! Our Worship Experiences are exciting, energetic, and engaging. They are designed to help encounter God through worship! 

We Embrace the Suffering through OUTREACH

We believe that we don't have "service", but we are called to do "service." We are committed to being the hands and feet of Jesus through Outreach. Monthly we host "Serve Saturday's" that are outreach projects throughout the city of Houston. We also have Freedom Outreach, which serves as the arm of our Church that engages in national and international partnerships meeting needs and giving relief where we can! 

We Engage with Society through COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 

We believe that God wants us to have dominion in the earth, which causes us to not only do ministry but to engage the marketplace. Through our Community Development Corporation we are focused on education, job creation, hunger eradication, and urban development in Houston's inner-city neighborhoods.
