Our Values
We are Christians committed to demonstrating the love of God, irrespective of race, religion,
skin colour, disability, gender or age. We respect and value people, we recognise that
everyone is different but equal with God, for God is not a respecter of persons (Acts 10:34,
James 2:1-4; 8-9).
We are created for good works; therefore, we believe that we are created
to put to full use our God-given talents for the Kingdom and mankind as the Holy Spirit
empowers us.
Our Inspiration
God raised up Deborah and equipped her with an extraordinary personality and gifts to deliver Israel from their oppressors. Deborah is a good illustration of what can be achieved when we allow God to be in total control of our lives. As a judge and prophetess, she held a prominent, powerful position. Her intimate relationship with God gave her an advantage that many leaders in authority lacked. Deborah reminds us of the need to be available for God and others. She wasn’t power thirsty but had a passion to serve God.
The Lord has kept us alive for a purpose, that our leadership skills, elderly wisdom and resources He has placed in our hands, should be used for His Kingdom as Deborah.
The biblical Deborah was a reputable prophetess, an honourable judge, a writer of songs, a virtuous wife and a mother in Israel, she was an ideal role model for every woman called to serve and lead others.
Scriptures that inspired us
Psalm 41: 1-3
Blessed are those who have regard for the weak; the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 2. The LORD protects and preserves them— they are counted among the blessed in the land—he does not give them over to the desire of their foes. 3. The LORD sustains them on their sickbed and restores them from their bed of illness
Jeremiah 22:16
He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well.
Is that not what it means to know me?” declares the LORD.
Titus 2:3-5
“Similarly, teach the older women to live in a way that honours God. They must not slander others or be heavy drinkers. Instead, they should teach others what is good.
These older women must train the younger women to love their husbands and their children to live wisely and be pure, to work in their homes, to do good and to be submissive to their husbands. Then they will not bring shame on the word of God.”
