Vision & Mission

The Vision

In line with desires of Jesus, the Head of the Church, we are not just another congregation or ministry but have been enabled by Grace of God to manifest the concept of church as a living, loving organism of activated body parts. As brethren, we feed regularly on the word to grow up into The Head in all things and into each other.

Ephesians 4: 11-16 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

Through the model of Church as School, rather than a theatre, we practise the Teach, Train, Equip, Activate and Release process promoted by the Global School of Ministry. The result is twofold:

  • All the brethren are challenged to die to self and embrace the sovereign rule of Jesus over their lives as His disciples.
  • That Arise Metropolitan Assembly has become a global leader in the restoration of the priesthood of all believers.

The Mission

Arise Metropolitan Assembly has a 360-degree mission focus. We do not dwell on any but embrace all:

  • Pastoral Care for the flock. Our Pastoral teams provide pastoral support for the brethren so that none falls through the cracks. The overall care is holistic: spiritual, emotional, material, and regular access to leadership.
  • Soul Winning. Consistent Soul winning through consistent evangelism. Preaching Jesus and His Kingdom, sinners are presented with the simple gospel to reconcile with the Father and become His new creation. 2 Corinthians 5: 17-19.
  • Discipleship. Through consistent study of the word, believers have their hearts transformed and minds renewed to become real disciples of the Lord. Matthew 28: 19-20.
  • Ministry Training. Through embrace of consistent training, disciples transition through discovery of their gifts and callings to become able ministers of the new covenant, priests after the order of Melchizedek.1 Peter 2: 9-10.
  • Transformation Impact. This ministry is invested in the transformation of the host community. We are involved in various projects such as feeding the homeless, cooperating with a night shelter, prayers for the community and supporting worthy causes.
  • Missions. We are active in missions. Our ministers have made a dynamic impact upon mission fields in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East.
  • Prayer. Ministers from Arise Metropolitan Assembly form the core of the work of the 24/7 Global Prayer Centre, the Global Prayer, and Spiritual Cabinet. During the COVID-19 Pandemic, these intercessors were instruments used to keep the Global Prayer and Spiritual Cabinet active, undergirding people worldwide.
  • Catalyst of the Great Commission. Arise Metropolitan Assembly is been used by Holy Spirit to demonstrate how the Great Commission can be fulfilled in our time through the ministry of the Word. Teachers from the ministry constitute the Global Faculty of the Global School of Ministry. They fan out across cities of the UK and nations of the world conducting the teach, train, equip, activate, and release process of the Kingdom educational system. In this way, many saints are transitioned to become disciples and ministers of the Lord.
  • Support base for other related ministries and visions. This ministry actively supports the visionaries to fulfil all other visions committed to their trust by the Lord. These include International Ministers Fellowship, We Care International, Global Missions Board, Global Missions Board and Global Advanced Mentorship Program.
