The HOPFAP church is a living body of Christ with many members (I Cor. 12:27). All members are a vital part of the body and are needed in order for the church (body of Christ) to function properly. Being uniquely related to every other member of Christ’s church. (Eph. 4:11-16; I Cor. 12), all members are interdependent on one another, needing one another other.
HOPFAP has been built on the Word of God through strong leadership, active participation of the members, a strong foundation, and good organization. Sis. Lynnette and myself envision operating the talents and gifts within the church family and then expand citywide, statewide and most of all WORLDWIDE. We envision a television and radio broadcast ministry, a strong guest service program utilizing a sanctuary ministry, ushers, gatekeepers, and greeters. We envision Missionary board involving both men and women actively disbursing food, clothing, and other forms of aide in the U.S. and foreign countries, a men and women ministry bring about counseling by working individually and collectively to minister and win souls to Christ, a nurses guild with qualified Lpn and Rn’s. We envision a mass choir, an orchestra and instrument ministry, a youth ministry consisting of children, teenagers and young adults that perform on a nationwide platform by song, praise dance, and preaching, all for the GLORY of God, and a Prison ministry sharing the Gospel to those incarcerated.
We envision our ministers to rise up through the ranks to become leaders and Pastors of the HOPFAP II, and HOPFAP III with locations strategically placed throughout the area and surrounding regions. We’d further plan to employ our members as we envision entrepreneurship within the church in a Community Center, a retirement home for seniors, a Day Care Center, and many other avenues upon growth.
