MINISTRY APPLICATION 

"You can do what I cannot do, I can do what you cannot do, and together we can do great things."- Mother Teresa

MINISTRY COVENANT ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Having received Christ as my Lord and Savior, and in recognition of God's covenants toward us, I understand  and agree to the content of this Ministry Covenant. I resolve to minister within the church and within the world as a servant of Jesus Christ, under God, and according to Scripture. The following statements help to further define my commitment:

I. I will protect the unity of my church​

  • by acting in love toward other members

  • by refusing to gossip

  • by following the leaders

  • by being supportive of Bethel Pentecostal Assembly Statement of Faith

  • by complying with Bethel Pentecostal Assembly Constitution and By-laws.

"So let us concentrate on the things which make for harmony, and on the growth of our fellowship together." (Rom. 14:19)​

​

"Have a sincere love for other believers, love one another earnestly with all your heart." (1 Peter 1:22)

​

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs." (Eph. 4:29)

​

"Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give and account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be no advantage to you." (Hebrews 13:17)

II. I will share the growth of my church

  • by praying for its growth

  • by inviting the unchurched to attend

  • by warmly welcoming those who visit

"To the church - We always thank God for you and pray for you constantly." (1 Thess. 1-2)

​

"The Master said to the servant, 'Go out to the roads and country lanes, and urge the people there to come so my house will be full" (Luke 14:23)

​

"So, warmly welcome each other into the church, just as Christ has warmly welcomed you; then God will be glorified." (Romans 15:7)

III. I will serve the ministry of my church

  • by discovering my gifts and talents

  • by actively involving myself in ministry

  • by being equipped to serve by my pastors

  • by developing a servant's heart

  • by ministering in cooperation with others in the Body of Christ

  • by supporting, through prayer and affirmation, other' gifts and ministries

"Serve one another with the particular gifts God has given each of you" (1 Peter 4:10)

​

"God gave some to be pastors and teachers, to be prepare God"s people for works of service, so that the Body of Christ may be built up". (Eph. 4:11,12)

​

"Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus; Who... [took on] the very nature of  servant." (Phil. 2:3-4,7)

IV. I will support the testimony of my church

  • by attending faithfully

  • by living a godly life (applying Biblical principles in all aspects of my life)

  • by keeping a regular, personal quiet time of Bible reading and prayer and regularly confessing my sins before God

  • by giving regularly

  • by abstaining from any act or attitude that is counter-productive to the purposes of the church or its ministries

"Let us not give up meeting together... but let us encourage one another."  (Hebrews 10:25)

​

"Whatever happens, make sure that your everyday life is is worthy of the gospel of Christ."  (Phil !:27)

​

"Each one of you, on the first day of each week, should set aside a specific sum of money in proportion to what you have earned and use it for the offering". (1 Cor. 16:2)

​

"A tenth of [all your] produce... is the Lord's and is holy." (Lev. 27:30) 

I understand that Bethel Assembly is responsible for the welfare of any person entrusted to my care, and thus I will co-operate fully with the staff in the fulfillment of my duties and will keep all information I encounter in my role as a Ministry Leader, confidential. If, at any time, I find that for any reason I am unable to support the policies, procedures, or doctrines of Bethel Pentecostal Assembly, I will gracefully and quietly resign my position. 

If I fail to live a life consistent with God's word so that my witness, the reputation of the Name of Christ and / or the integrity of Bethel Assembly is compromised, I will withdraw from my position of ministry and submit to a process of restoration.

​

Thanks for considering being involved at Bethel!
