Proverbs 29:18 says that people perish where there is no vision. This shows the importance of
a godly vision and an understanding of what God wants us to do for His name.
It is often said that the most pathetic person in the world
is someone who has sight, but has no vision. Therefore, there is definitely no lack
of vision in the London Ghana Seventh day Adventist church. As a flock of our Lord
Jesus Christ, our greatest vision is to “grow, maintain a spirit-filled multicultural
church, and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all people as empowered by the Holy
Spirit."
Based on this vision, the pastoral team had a special brainstorming
session to explore ideas on how we as a church could achieve the vision of growing,
maintaining, and sharing the gospel of Christ. Out of that meeting, the team studied
the ideas, sort through them, and created a list of vision objectives for the
next 5 years???.
Below is a list of the goals and main objectives
that came out of that meeting.
