Lux Mundi : Purpose Statement

Hosanna EFC's perennial statement is to help the Great Commission by making disciples, equipping them for life and ministry.

The Bible says in Matthew 28:

"But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain, which Jesus had designated. When they saw Him, they worshipped Him; but some were doubtful. And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." (vv.16-20, NASB)

Reflection of the Week

Genesis 12:1-9 (NLT)

1. The Lord has said to Abram, "Leave your native country, your relatives and your father's family and go to the land that I will show you.

2. I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous and you will be a blessing to others.

3. I will bless those who bless you and curse those who treat you with contempt. All the families on earth will be blessed through you."

4. So Abram departed as the Lord had instructed and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he left Haran.

5. He took his wife, Sarai, his nephew Lot and all his wealth - his livestock and all the people he had taken into his household at Haran - and headed for the land of Canaan. When they arrived in Canaan,

6. they travelled through the land as far as Shechem. There he set up camp beside the oak of Moreh. At that time, the area was inhabited by Canaanites.

7. Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, "I will give this land to your descendants." And Abram built an altar there and dedicated it to the Lord, who had appeared to him.

8. After that, Abram travelled south and set up camp in the hill country, with Bethel to the west and Ai to the east. There, he built another altar and dedicated it to the Lord, and he worshipped the Lord.

9. Then Abram continued travelling south by stages toward the Negev.
