The PEACE Plan

Welcome,
God designed us to make a difference, to make an impact with our one and only life. He wants us to leave the world in a better situation than when we came into it.There’s only one way to do that…by serving others. We serve God by serving others. That’s why Jesus said, “If you want to be great, learn to be the servant of all.”
“Ordinary people empowered by God making a difference together wherever they are.” It’s not for super saints or super talented people. It’s everyday, ordinary, average people, making a difference in our world. Anytime God tells us to do something, he always gives us the ability and the power to do it. The PEACE Plan is something we do together, working with and through local churches around the world. There is a lot of “they” in the world today, but we need to respond as if “they” are all “us,” because that’s how God sees things.
PROMOTE RECONCILIATION
and help to cure the spiritual emptiness that plagues the world.
EQUIP LEADERS
who are corrupt or self-serving and help them become servant leaders.
ASSIST THE POOR
in an era when nearly half the world lives on less that $2 a day.
CARE FOR THE SICK
in an era when diseases like AIDS, malaria, mumps, and measles are preventable but still ravaging underdeveloped countries.
EDUCATE THE NEXT GENERATION
the hope for the world’s least developed countries.
