Our mission is to provide ministerial accountability and leadership development for the local church. Every meeting and every structure we produce in Kentucky must be in tune with the Holy Spirit’s mandate to perfect the saints for the work of the ministry, and for the edifying of the body of Christ. (Eph. 4:12)
Our vision is to develop the infrastructure and nurture the climate in Kentucky whereby every minister and congregation is growing spiritually, developing healthy relationships, and discovering new skills for reaching the lost and making disciples.
Core Values
CARE :
1. Every pastor and spouse participating in a
Covenant to Care team each month to pray together,
study together, and edify one another. (1 Corinthians
12:25) Each District Overseer empowered to provide
care and encouragement for the ministers on his
district.
PRAYER:
2. Effectual fervent prayer must be the hallmark
of the Church of God in Kentucky.
UNITY:
3. Church of God ministers working together in
harmony and love, and be at the forefront of bringing
unity to the body of Christ in their community.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT:
4. State leaders providing leadership development
and practical training that relates to the needs
of congregations of all sizes, and ministers receiving
training through the CIMS Program offered by the
School of Ministry.
HERITAGE:
5. We are thankful for our
Pentecostal heritage. We honor retired ministers
and minister’s
widows and bless them financially. Churches are
encouraged to “adopt” a retired ministerial
couple or minister’s widow.
