NATIONAL MINISTRIES

MINISTRY TO PASTORS AND CHURCHES

    Some topics for some churches seem to be too sensitive for pastors to speak on because they know their people. We are able to come in and deal with those topics freely because we do not know their people. We also train churches on developing ‘spiritual S.W.A.T. (Special Weapons And Tactics) teams to deal with major internal church crisis such as moral failure in leadership. We also help churches develop strategic methods of prevention beyond the ‘legal’ requirements and corporate ‘self-protection’ strategies. These methods extend to both ‘victim’ and ‘victimizer’ in a biblical process of effective ‘restoration’ and ‘reconciliation’. We develop specific prevention and support to Christian leadership struggling with moral vulnerabilities in a highly confidential and ‘safe’ environment. We develop both printed and electronic materials to instruct and train leadership and laity.  We provide strategic seminars and retreats that both minister and train participants. Both Alf Bell and Terry Lewis provide years of experience and training that is intensely practical and biblical.

MINISTRY TO CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS AND HOME SCHOOLS

    Much of what we do for churches also applies to this category with the exception that the services and ministries are tailored to the unique requirements of these different institutions. If you take a look at the Blog on “Heaven: We Have a Problem” we note that Christian and Home Schools are not immune from moral failure. Our approach to training, prevention, restoration, and reconciliation go beyond the typical protocols within Christian schools and we try to effectively prevent the problems from occurring rather than just having a policy that is often more concerned about ‘corporate damage control’ after the occurrence. Home school families have their own internal vulnerabilities and seminars and retreats are designed to take a transparent perspective of those vulnerabilities in a way that protects and empowers the marriage and the family. These ministries also include specific programs to protect each member of the family’s use of various types of Internet activity.

MINISTRY TO CHRISTIAN BUSINESSMEN

    We empower Christian businesses by helping them integrate the biblical principles of 'effective community' into the work place. We train staff in specific people skills that increases the harmony and productivity within the work place. Conflict management and intentional relationship building reduces unnecessary stress and encourages higher levels of confidence and competence. For Christian businesses the 'workplace' and the lives of their employees and their families becomes the 'frontline' for their mission.

INTERNATIONAL MINISTRIES

SENDING. PARTNERING. EQUIPPING.

 Over the past three decades CEO has been involved in countries outside of Canada. While Terry worked on his education in the United States he would have opportunity to minister in local congregations. In 1992, Terry was invited to speak in England at the First British Isles Home School conference and he took his son David with him. Later in the 1990's Terry was invited to Haiti to work with Christian Schools and train their teachers. One of our Board members, Gordon Gilbey was led to do some work in China and in the Philippines. We were able to 'empower' him with prayer and some finances. Recently we have been invited to support ministry in Cuba and Afghanistan. Each of these opportunities have come unexpectedly to us and we have prayed and are praying that wherever God leads us that He enable us with the resources in finances and personnel to accomplish the tasks He would assign. It is more than our name. It is our mandate to be Christians Empowering Organizations wherever God leads.
