The focus of our ministry is on unity and God's favor. We emphasize unity because, as Saint Paul tells us in First Corinithains 12:27, "Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it." There is only one body, and we are all members of it, so we work and worship together for the work and ministry of the body of Christ. We emphasize justice because the ministry Jesus described for himself in Luke 4:18, "to bring the good news to the poor .... To proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."
And he said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And the second is like it, you shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.
