JOURNEY & AMI
Journey Community Church is a member of Acts Ministries International™ (AMI) – a community of churches that partners in missions work, church planting and building up the body of Christ. AMI™ began in 2002 with a group of pastors who had a vision to return to the early church model seen in Acts 2. We envision AMI to be more than a denomination or an association. It is a community of churches seeking to model the spirituality, vision, and partnership exemplified in the book of Acts. AMI is committed to developing disciples of Christ within our churches, as well as spreading the gospel message to unreached people through church planting and missions work.
OUR AGREEMENT
Our partnership within AMI is based on agreement with the three S’s: Statements, Spirituality, and Supervision.
Statements: We agree on our statements of faith, purpose, and mission in order to have a common foundation and framework as we work together. Looking into the Bible, we found that God has given certain values and directions to His church as His representatives in the world. From these scriptural values we take our Statements.
Spirituality: AMI churches also have a common Spirituality. Our desire to passionately pursue God brings us together as it is expressed in worship, prayer, and ministry. This Spirituality keeps us going in the same direction as we do ministry.
Supervision: We highly value Supervision. We need accountability between churches to faithfully continue in our ministry because our hearts are prone to wander from God. AMI’s leadership team provides oversight for our ministries, and is able to address any issues that may arise.
OTHER AMI CHURCHES
As part of our calling to fulfill the Great Commission, AMI™ is currently engaged in missions work throughout Asia, as well as praying for new doors to open in other parts of the world. By committing training, prayer and financial support, and short-term missions projects to these areas, we believe that God will use us to help spread the Gospel message and build His kingdom among unreached peoples.
