Our Name- "The Well Christian Ministry"

Well....
That's right- that's our name! We now have a "name" for our new church- "The Well Christian Ministry". It is a name based on the story of Jesus and his encounter with the woman at the well. Remember all the story in John 4- how Jesus met her where she was and spoke to her about eternal life? He went to a public place- "the Well"- and He spoke to her words that changed her life. That is what we seek to do as we move into Morristown and seek out new people- people who may not be attached to a traditional church, people who may be of a different ethnic or denominational background, or people without any church background- and lead them to Christ to give them the "living water that leads to eternal life". That is what it means to be a "Church without walls"!
Our specific vision, and how it relates to the story of Jesus and the woman at The Well:
[John 4:4] We envision a “Church without walls”- a church based on influencing people for Christ by going to people where they are, and drawing them into a relationship with Christ through service, involvement and relationships with other believers
[John 4:7] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” that separates people of different races will be broken down by forgiveness, reconciliation and acceptance.
[John 4:14] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” that separates God and man will be broken down, and people experience the fullness of freedom and the abundant life that Christ intended them to have.
[John 4:16-19] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” that separates members of families from one another will be broken down by forgiveness, faith and “the blessing”.
[John 4:15] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” between believers and unbelievers will be broken down, and people will experience a sense of belonging in an atmosphere of total acceptance, love and support.
[John 4:20-24] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” of denominationalism will be broken down by mutual prayer, cooperation and support with people of other Christian faiths.
[John 4:39] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” that separates people from fulfilling their dreams will be broken down by faith, and by the discovery and use of their spiritual gifts.
[John 4:25-29] We envision a church where the “dividing wall” that keeps broken and hurting people from experiencing the fullness of life that God intended for them will be broken down as they find a home among people who welcome them with open arms.
Pray for us as we move into this next phase in church planting!
