Vision\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

The vision of Amazing Grace Baptist Church is to be a Christ-centered fellowship of believers who confess faith in God\u2019s grace revealed in Jesus Christ, committed to the proclamation of the Gospel to all nations, the making of disciples, and the offering of Spirit-filled worship through which persons encounter the presence of God and experience fullness of life (Matthew 28:18\u201320; John 10:10; Ephesians 2:8\u20139).<\/p>\r\n

Identity and Uniqueness<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

Amazing Grace Baptist exists to provide a culturally sensitive and Spirit filled fellowship where our common identity in Christ reigns supreme. Thus, the Church provides a cultural atmosphere where God\u2019s grace and beauty reflect in the life of all its members. Here, everybody feels welcome, accepted and belonged to worship God in their own culture and identity (Gal 3:28) and with their God given spiritual gifts (1 Cor 12). Both contemporary gospel songs and \u00a0Baptist hymns are sung i\"Amazingn contemporary melodies or styles. In this case, both spontaneous spirituality and reflective orderliness characterize our worship atmosphere. The youth and teens are also encouraged to communicate the gospel and also glorify God in the worshipping context through various platforms such as choreography and contextual gospel music.<\/p>\r\n

Affiliation<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

As a newly established Church, Amazing Grace Baptist is affiliated to the Bund Evangelisch-Frei Baptisten Gemeinden, Deutschland<\/em> and the Ghana Baptist Conventio<\/em>n\u00a0 and with particular assistance from Christuskirche, Altona.<\/p>\r\n

Ministerial Goals and Activities<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

We are a body of Christians where members are inspired and empowered to fulfil their evangelistic and stewardship mandate to the nations and cities, touching lives through discipleship and revival programmes that aim at helping members grow in Christ likeness. We also seek to teach both the members and non-members through training programmes to develop balanced and biblical perspectives in the context of multiplicity of world views. Members become inspired to impact their generation (Matthew 25: 1-13).<\/p>\r\n

Core Emphases<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

The six core emphases of Amazing Grace Baptist Church are as follows:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. Salvation by Grace through Faith in Jesus Christ<\/strong> \u2013 Upholding the centrality of the Gospel as the foundation of Christian life and faith.<\/li>\r\n
  2. Discipleship<\/strong> \u2013 Committing to the spiritual growth and maturity of believers into Christlikeness through teaching, mentoring, and obedience to God\u2019s Word.<\/li>\r\n

  4. Warm Fellowship (Acceptance and Belonging)<\/strong> \u2013 Fostering a loving, welcoming community where all people experience acceptance, care, and a sense of belonging in Christ.<\/li>\r\n
