MINISTRY VOLUNTEERS
John has been with the CTU for 12 years now. He is loves missions and has a heart to serve the Unreached People's of the world. John will most always be found spending his spare time serving in minstries that will contribute to Christ's mandate to make disciples of the nations. Besides contributing much time and support at CTU he also helps in heading up the CHC clinic at New Life Fellowship.
Ruthie Westmeier is a full time clinical therapist. who has done much to contribute to our evangleistic efforts. Through her gift in couseling she has been very effective in introducing many UPGs to Jesus and disicpling them in their walk with Christ..
Ana and Julia have been serving at CTU as the finance officers since our inseption. They had served as our finance officers in New life Christian Center Church before we started sending our international workers out to Unreached People Groups. They have a tremendous heart for reaching UPGs and have .sacrificed much time and effort into seeing Jesus' Great Commission become a reality.
CENTER TO THE UNREACHED
We believe that Jesus is central to everything we do. We believe that prayer through the person of Jesus is a direct line to God, and that we should speak to Him every chance we get.. Jesus once said, "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing" (John 15:5). As Heidi Bake so eloquently put it, "What part of "nothing" don't you understand"?
We believe that loving Jesus means to first of all experience His love for us in a deep and meaningful way (1John 4:19). This love is most often initiated in a person's life when they commit their life to follow Jesus and He, in turn, fills them with the Holy Spirit.
Secondly, loving Jesus means learning to obey him even in the most difficult circumstances (John 14:23). Loving Jesus means to throw off every vestige of fear and pride which so easily entangle us by keeping our eyes fixed on Him at all times (Prov 29:23, 25; Heb 12:1-2).
We believe that Jesus extends grace to everyone and that we should follow in his steps. Who are we to pass judgment and not extend grace, when we ourselves have sinned. "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves" (Philippians 2:3).
We are called to join in fellowship with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Yet this often can not happen becuase so many Christian's are still walking around with unresolved emotional baggage. We believe that each one of us is called to walk through the difficult process of emotional healing so that we can serve the Lord with all our heart, mind, soul and strength (Matthew 12:11-12).
This is perhaps our most difficult value for the western church to grasp. We believe that each one of us is called by Jesus Himself to be part of His Great Commission. This is the case regardless of anybody's particular gifting or calling. Jesus called ALL of us us to go out and spread His Gospel message to every creature (Mark 16:15-16). We believe that this is not being emphasized nearly enough. That is why we make it a priority to go outside of the church walls to reach the lost and broken with an emphasis on those who come from people groups that have never heard the Gospel message. We do this in order to hasten Jesus' physical return to this earth (2Peter 3:12, Matthew 24:14) . We hope that you will join us in doing so.
