Besides what is called
"Social ministries", and although it's deeply
rooted in the christian understanding of mision, there
is another program that is typically Evangelism.
The church started many
years ago to plant its first church in Sidi Beshr, and
now it's a big church with it's own pastor and session.
Another church was
palnted in Ameria, 30 Kms south of Alexanderia, and our
youngest plant now is the Bitach church 16 Kms west of
Alexanderia, wich finally became an official church with
it's own ordained pastor and session too.
The ministry strategy
is very simple...
1- To go to an area where no other churches are there.
2- To look for a place to meet in.
3- To create a community of faith.
4- And finally to find an already built house that can
work as a permanent church.
In some cases
we built the church from A to Z, while in Sidi Beshr
Church we bought an already built house.
There is a
great opportunity now for three more places, wiht the
expansion of the city, new migrants coming from upper
Egypt looking for job opportunities, and the population
explosion, the need is becoming great to build or look
for an already built places.
We ordinate
full time and part time evangelists who are working in
these new places.
