MISSION:
Empower Laymen to increase God's Kingdom through service to others with integrity, dedication, and commitment

GOALS AND OBJECTIVES:
To be Christ like examples in everyday living, consciously living our lives with others in mind; To nurture the Christian life of Laymen through study, worship, fellowship and service. To provide a resource center of manpower for the work of the Convention; To enlist all the men in active Christian service to the Church through local congregation; To encourage Laymen to support the financial program of the Convention; To equip and mobilize Laymen to infiltrate the unchurched world with the Gospel. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor: He hath sent me to heal the broken hearted, to preach deliverance to the captive, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.  Each Brother reach one until Jesus Come  Luke 4:18" "
