PURPOSE
The Full Gospel Mission is a company of Christian people who seek in all things to be subject to the sovereignty of the Lord Jesus Christ and the leading of the Holy Spirit to the glory of God The Father.
The Full Gospel Mission was raised up by God for the teaching of the increasing revelation of His Word, the Pastoral Care of His people and the Evangelisation of those for whom Christ died and rose again.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
The Bible is the Written Word of God, and as revealed to us by the Holy Spirit, the sole and perfect authority for faith and conduct.
LEADERSHIP
The Leadership of the Full Gospel Mission includes Pastors, Elders and Deacons in accordance with the Biblical patern. The Pastors and Elders are not elected but recognised by the manifested calling and leading of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Deacons are appointed by the Leadership.
