Counselling Unit
We welcome you to our Counselling unit
Ephesians 6:7 NIV: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not people
This is the Counselling/Follow-up department. Apostle Paul was a master at follow-up. In Acts 15:36, he told Barnabas “Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do”.
“Follow-Up” refers to the process of ongoing personal investment and communication that should occur after a new person has begun to attend the church. The goal of the Christian worker in this situation is to make available the truths of Christianity in a way that is understandable, and suited to the progress of the new comer. The Bible stresses the importance of “persuading men” of the truth (II Cor 5:11) ; of “feeding the sheep” — (i.e. those newly born into His kingdom, Jn. 21:15-17); of fellowship (Acts 2:44-47); and of teaching (Acts 5:42). The final goal of follow-up can best be stated in the words of the Bible, that the new person would become “firmly rooted, built up in Him and established in…faith” (Col.2:6-7).
A lot of energy is spent attempting to get people to attend church services, our guests experience fantastic music and engaging teaching during the service but we ensure they come back and become members.
The Follow up team assists in giving information about the Church and our meetings to first timers by and helping them know that they are appreciated.
The goal of this department is to enhance the church vision of quality and distinction. This group is tasked with the responsibility of performing all welcoming formalities for new comers. The group is also responsible for following-up and encouraging up new members as well as old members.
