OUR MISSION |
|
| |
|
| |
The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
because the LORD has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners. [Isaiah 61:1] |

OUR COVERING |
| |
|
| |
A word from Dr. J. Doug Stringer, founder of Somebody Cares America and Turning Point Ministries… |
| |
|
I wholeheartedly endorse the passion, the anointing, and the ministry of Gideon and Sara Stanley. Not only do they have the mandate of God and the favor of God upon them, they also operate in a genuine spirit of humility yet with great authority because they tap right in to the throne of God in their worship, in their prayers, and in their desire to see God move in this generation. |
| |
They have served us by leading worship at our pastors gatherings, leaders meetings, and Friday night Bible studies. The Stanleys have participated in our think tanks with valuable input, have led scores of young people on mission trips, and helped us right away with our tsunami relief roundtable. I have watched how they interact and how they respect and honor others. They have a deep passion to know God and to express that passion and knowledge of God to others. |

| SPIRITUAL FATHERING |
| |
A word from Rev. M.K. Sam Sundaram, Chief Pastor, Apostolic Christian Assembly… Affiliation with ACA |
|
| |
| I am glad to know of your vision God gave you concerning your ministries in US. At the very outset, I am very happy to extend a warm and cordial spiritual fellowship of ACA and to be under our Organisation. |
| |
| Gideons for Jesus, "ACA (India) are very happy to be in Spirirtual fellowship with Apostolic Christian Assembly, Chennai" only to signify spiritual fellowship existing among us. This would enable me emphatically state in our church that ACA is in fellowship with "Gideons for Jesus" who are carrying out ministries in US. |

WHAT WE BELIEVE |
| |
We believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:
|
| |
| We believe in Jesus Christ his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of God the Father Almighty. |
| |
| We believe in the Holy Spirit; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. |

| The Call of Gideon |
| |
| Now the angel of the LORD came and sat under the terebinth at Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son)Gideon was beating out wheat in the winepress to hide it from the Midianites. And the angel of the LORD appeared to him and said to him, "The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valor." And Gideon said to him, "Please, sir, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are( all his wonderful deeds that our fathers recounted to us, saying, 'Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt?' But now the LORD has forsaken us and given us into the hand of Midian." And the LORD turned to him and said, "Go in this might of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian; do not I send you?" And he said to him, "Please, Lord, how can I save Israel? Behold, my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house." And the LORD said to him, "But I will be with you, and you shall strike the Midianites as one man." And he said to him,) "If now I have found favor in your eyes, then show me a sign that it is you who speak with me. Please do not depart from here until I come to you and bring out my present and set it before you." And he said, "I will stay till you return." |
