Strategy

• Mobilise the congregation rather than relying to the full timers
• Develop them to grow in spirit
• Create a "ministry system" that effectively suit their needs in each level and age
• Involve them to the ministry and train them to be skillful in ministry
• Send them out to the mission fields

CLC is employing a "simple" system. The system should be effective to develop congregation's spiritual lives:

• With specific ministry upon each level and age
• To achieve "measurable" target to grow to the "next" level so they may be "mature" as church members
• To involve them in ministry complying with their calling, talents and God’s gifts
• To mobilise them in synergy for fulfilling the vision-mission of the church

How to do the system?

• The CLC Congregation are classified into 3 levels by filling in questionnaire to identify each level
• The purpose of this classification is to give effective and specific ministries to each level complying with their spiritual needs
• Then some measurable targets should be achieved in order to grow to the next level.
• The congregation of each level will be involved into ministries and mission works complying with the achievement in their spiritual growth

The classification of congregation

1st Level of CLC

• C = Christ is personal saviour.
• Regardless any spiritual background of the congregation, they will be served up until they know Jesus Christ as personal saviour.
• The targets of this level:
  • To save the congregation by the grace of God
  • To transform them as "born again Christians"
  • To disciple them in basic Christianity principles so they become responsible church members

2nd Level of CLC

• L = Love God, Love The Church.
• The congregation should be disciples that able to practice their love to God by serving His church
• The targets of this level:
  • To involve the congregation into at least ONE ministry (may be more)
  • The ministry they are involving may be complied with their talents, gifts and God’s calling

3rd Level of CLC

• C = Compassion to the world.
• The maturity of the congregation’s love to God should be developed not only to the church but also to the world.
• They have to fulfill God’s highest calling in their lives by reaching out the world (to do God’s mission)
• The targets of this level:
  • To equip and train the congregation in theology, leadership and ministry skill training
  • To send out ONE congregation for bringing ONE person in ONE year to the church (1-1-1 mission project)
  • To help and prepare the congregation for fulfilling God’s highest calling as evangelist, missionary, preacher, leaders, etc
