Introduction outlined above, we are challenged to accomplish the following by the year 2020: 500,000 members in the United States. 5.5 million members overseas. 1,000 new churches planted in the U.S.A. Ethnic congregations doubled in the U.S.A. 80 percent of all existing churches moved to an annual growth mode. Our presence increased from 103 to 150 countries worldwide. We are committed to the mission of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers in the church today and seek to minister in the power of these God-given anointings. Our denominational ministry must be relevant, dynamic, and demonstrative. We must be relevant in that we understand the culture of our society and how to relate to it with all the technology available to us today. We must be dynamic in that we seek to impact and change our communities and cities in meaningful ways, rather than just carry out a schedule of church services weekly. We must be demonstrative in that we are filled with the Holy Spirit and allow Him to work miraculously through us to accomplish these otherwise impossible goals. This is a kairos moment for the IPHC because God has chosen to use an old, classical Pentecostal denomination to demonstrate to the world the new thing He is doing in our generation. We know that “eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man” what God has yet to reveal through His unfolding destiny for the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. The Editorial Committee 9
Introduction Mission Statement The mission of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church is to multiply believers and churches, discipling them in worship, fellowship, and evangelism as we obey the Great Commission in cooperation with the whole body of Christ. Objectives God has called the International Pentecostal Holiness Church to become a kingdom of worshiping priests who will worship Him with all our beings – spirit, soul, and body. We are to live lives of worship, continually giving praise to the Lord. Our churches are to be noted for their praise and celebration. We are to learn a worship lifestyle that will model for the whole world what it means to love God with all our might, mind, and means. God has called the International Pentecostal Holiness Church to become a learning community of believers who give themselves to maturing and maximizing the gifts and calling of each member of the community. We commit ourselves to equipping the saints for their work of ministry and teaching them a lifestyle of learning that we may all grow in the knowledge of God and in effectiveness in ministry. God has called the International Pentecostal Holiness Church to become an army of witnesses who will live to share the good news. Our entire lifestyle is to be built around the compassion to witness. We are to witness as we travel, study, eat, work, and play. We are to choose our vocations, homes, church sites, mode of dress, language, friends, and neighbors to better witness to our generation. God has called the International Pentecostal Holiness Church to become a unique instrument of world evangelization that will penetrate many unreached peoples of this earth with the gospel. We are to gear up like an invading army to go into enemy strongholds with our lifestyle of worship, learning, and witness to build the kingdom of God and establish the reign of King Jesus. GMC Vision The vision of the Global Ministries Center (GMC) of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church is to: • Communicate prophetic vision to the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. • Empower and assist Conference and local church leadership. • Make available resources for equipping church leaders. 10
