| In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’
Acts 20:35 |

Prayer
Prayer undergirds everything we do and is the most important investment our board, staff, and volunteers make to the ministry. Prayer is the most effective way to discover God's plan for our ministry and the most effective means of employing His blessing on our efforts.
Excellence
It is our purpose to bring glory to God in all that we do and say in the carrying out of our ministry responsibilities. Means understanding our role in the Mission and applying our talents, skills and spiritual gifts in a manner that will meet or exceed expectations.
Encouragement
Affirming the value of each individual client, volunteer, staff and supporter. Acknowledging the talent, skills, and spiritual gifts of each person involved in ministry with us. Fostering an atmosphere of joy and celebration for what God is doing through us.
Community
Embracing accountability to each other and to our community. Maintaining a presence throughout our community. Recognizing the changing needs and altering our approach to ministry in response to those needs.
Mission
Statement
The Christian Ministry is a family of Christian congregations organized to provide individuals an opportunity to grow, mature and express their faith through fellowship and service for joy set before us in Christ.
The Christian Ministry will stimulate doing together what individual congregations cannot do separately, in an ecumenical spirit.
We are committed to Christ to translate our faith into cooperative action which ministers to the spiritual, social, physical, economic and emotional needs of our neighbors in Buncombe County.
Through Christ, our pioneer and perfector, we persevere to restore and/or maintain the dignity of every person, bring reconciliation to hostilities, bring new skills, strategies, and hope to the thwarted/disadvantaged lives, share our common victories of life.
Our Corporate Prayer:
Take our hands, work through them.
Take our lips, speak through them.
Take our minds, think through them.
Take our hearts, set them on fire.
