Our Purpose & Vision

          

Word of Life Church is a growing family of believers co-laboring together. We have a common goal to advance the Kingdom of God in our local region and throughout the world.

God has a unique purpose and plan for every individual He created. He knows the neighborhood you will live in, the lives you will impact, and exactly what goals you are to fulfill with the gifts He has given you. As the Head of the Church, Jesus has a purpose for every church, which is just as unique as His plan for each individual.

How does He accomplish His purpose? First, God gives His church a vision, A vision is the means by which He chooses to bring His purpose to pass. With vision comes purpose! The purpose is God’s will for that church.  In 1983, God gave Apostle Gaspar Anastasi a vision and, from it, Word of Life Ministries was birthed.

Word of Life's vision is to be an end-time church: a church that replicates the first church described in the Book of Acts. We are a church that emphasizes the development of strong relationships among believers - a church that draws others into the family of God through inspired preaching, Bible study, home fellowship, and evangelism. Word of Life is a church that grows daily both spiritually and numerically because the life and love of Jesus Christ flow in its midst (Acts 2:14-47; Eph. 4:1-16) We believe that Jesus Christ will soon return to claim the kind of church we have described.

As overseers of Word Of Life World Outreach and its family of churches, we pray that this purpose and vision will be an inspiration to you. Habakkuk 2:2-3 exhorts us to “...write the vision and engrave it plainly upon the tablets...”

If you are visiting with us and are seeking a home church, we sincerely hope you “catch the vision” as you read this and we invite you to join our family!
