- What Makes A Great Church?
FAITH LIGHTHOUSE ASSEMBLY OF
GOD CHURCH-The Assemblies of God is
about people--people experiencing the
presence, power and purpose of God in
their lives. Some 30 million people, from
all walks of life and races, worship in
Assemblies of God churches around the
world. Young and old, married and single,
parents and children, they have one thing
in common: a desire to know and please
God and share His blessings with others.
The Assemblies of God is people who
believe in the God of the Bible and believe
He is working in today's world. We invite you to join us!
Our Mission Statement is to:
![[the Holy Spirit is welcome in this church]](dove.gif)
The four-fold mission of our church explains what we're all about: evangelism (to those who don't know God); discipleship (every Christian systematically growing as a follower of Jesus Christ); fellowship (helps to develop unity and communication skills) and to worship God.

![[The Bible is THE manual for Faith Lighthouse Assembly of God Church]](aniltbible.gif)
...the Bible is the inspired and only infallible and authoritative written Word of God.
...there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost.
...in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His personal future return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand years.
..in the Blessed Hope--the rapture of the Church at Christ's coming.
...the only means of being cleansed from sin is through repentance and faith in the precious blood of Christ.
...regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for personal salvation.
...the redemptive work of Christ on the cross provides healing of the human body in answer to believing prayer.
...the baptism in the Holy Spirit, according to Acts 2:4, is given to believers who ask for it.
...in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling, the Christian is enabled to live a holy life.
...in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to damnation.

What Makes A Great Church?
Many have asked that question. It is not a building, it is not the furnishings, and it's not finery....it is people. People who love God and love one another. People who have a sincere desire to work for God and put him first in their lives. There are gadgets and gimmicks that many churches are using today to try to make a great church. But, I believe that God's word gives us a key to success of a church.
1. Continuing Steadfast In Doctrine.
There is a great need for instruction in the word of God today. We, at Faith Lighthouse Assembly of God, believe in the teaching and preaching the whole Word of God. The Word of God has an answer to all of your searching questions. It tells us how we are to live...pointing the way to salvation and to an abundant life in Jesus.
2. Fellowship.
In addition to teaching and preaching the Word of God, a church needs fellowship. At Faith Lighthouse Assembly of God, we have activities for the whole family that promote fellowship. Fellowship is important in a church since it helps to develop the unity and the communication skills that are vital to a successful church.
3. Breaking Bread.
We observe the ordinance of communion. The word of God says in, 1 Co. 11:25, "after the same manner also He took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This is the New Testament in my Blood: this do ye, as oft as y e drink it, in remembrance of me." We remember and give thanks for what God has done for us. We lift up holy hands and worship Him. God desires that the church would remember Him and He wants us to praise and worship Him.
4. Prayers.
![[never doubt the prayers of people at Faith Lighthouse Assembly of God Church]](anipray.gif)
Faith Lighthouse is a praying church. We believe in the power of prayer. We also have faith, God will hear and answer our prayers. A church that spends time in prayer is a church that sees souls saved, needs met, and victories won.
These four keys are essential for a successful church. We invite you and your family to worship with us and become a part of our church family. God's desire for each of us is that we accept Him as our personal Savior, that we grow in our Christian life, and become useful tools in the Master's hands.
Come, as you are and grow with us. You will be glad you did.
If you need spiritual help call us at the church office. We are here to minister to your needs.
