SOCAL COMPASSION
Assemblies of God churches are finding that compassion ministry provides avenues for evangelism that traditional ministries do not provide. The four purposes of the Church and its Mission are:
• Evangelize
To be an agency of God for evangelizing the world (Acts 1:8; Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 16:15016).
• Worship
To be a corporate body in which man may worship God (1 Corinthians 12:13).
• Disciple
To be a channel of God’s purpose to build a body of saints being perfected in the image of His Son (Ephesians 4:11-16; 1 Corinthians 12:28; 14:12).
• Compassion
To be a people who demonstrate God’s love and compassion for all the world (Psalm 112:9; Galatians 2:10; 6:10; James 1:27)
