1.  Corporate Prayer

2.  Committed Relationships

3.  Deliberate Action

Let's explore each of these Values:

Corporate Prayer.   In order to do anything for God, we need His direction, His help, His favor and His wisdom.   He tells us that He will help us do His will if we ask Him.                                    "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously..." James 1:5a RSV

Committed Relationships.   We are knit to God because of His love for us.  He expects us to extend that love to each other.   Applied to starting new regional ministry initiatives, we should consider giving preference to initiatives that have authentic relationships at their core.                "Love must be sincere."  Romans 12:9a  TNIV

Deliberate Action.    All Christians cannot participate in all regional initiatives.  However, we all take from the community.  At some level we should all work to improve our community.   As God stirs us, we should join together to transform this region by advancing His Kingdom in this region and beyond. 

Our Great Commission:  "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."  Matthew 28:19-20a TNIV
