Why we exist as a Church

We are helped of God in times of trials, so that we having been helped of God are able to minister to others who are going through what God has helped us from. It is not about coming to church every Sunday, looking for help but rather pointing others to the help that comes from God. We are saved to save others. We are healed to heal others. This is why we exist as a church.
