WHO WE ARE
Light of the World Ministries International is a Bible-believing church dedicated to acknowledging and proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord. Our vision is to see every believer equipped to become a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ through intentional discipleship. We strive to help the church rediscover and cultivate a deep, personal relationship with God by emphasizing the power of prayer, the wisdom of Bible study, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Together, as the Body of Christ, we walk this journey, encouraging one another in faith, unity, and love.
As Acts 1:8 reminds us, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” This is our mission and our calling.
OUR MISSION
At Light of the World Ministries International, our mission is to equip and empower disciples to fulfill the Great Commission, bring deliverance and freedom to those in bondage, give generously to our communities, and reach souls for Christ. We are committed to serving with open hands and compassionate hearts, sharing Christ’s love and the life-changing power of the Gospel. As Matthew 25:40 reminds us, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” Guided by this calling, we strive to be the hands and feet of Jesus, extending His love, hope, and salvation to all we encounter.
OUR BELIEFS
We believe in pursuing a lifestyle of inward and outward holiness. 2 Corinthians 7:1; Hebrews 12:14
We believe there is only one God and his name is Jesus Christ. “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD.” God is the creator of heaven and earth, and of all living beings. He has revealed Himself as the Father (Creator), as the Son (Savior), and as the Holy Ghost (Spirit). “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” Deuteronomy 6:4; Colossians 2:9
We believe in the manifestation of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit ministers to His people through tongues, interpretation of tongues, prophecy; words of knowledge and wisdom, discerning of spirits, faith, working of miracles, healing, helps and government. Mark 16:15-18; Acts 5:16; 2 Corinthians 12:1-11
We believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. “ And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” Acts 2:4
We believe in water baptism by immersion in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sin. Acts 2:38
We believe in the Great Commission, sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and make disciples of all nations with love and compassion. Matthew 28:19
