Lay Organisation
Layty fulfilling the Great CommisionPresident
Sr. P. Luthuli
Hosea 4:6:
“So I will destroy your mother – my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priest; because you have ignored the law of your God, I will also ignore your children. With this quote I greet you all in the name of Jesus Christ Amen.”
I thank the Alpha and the Omega for be with us till this far and for being the navigator of the journey at all time. As the Lay organization we would like to encourage each and every individual to make sure that they enrich themselves with knowledge and not only within church but also outside church.
“Fulfilling the great commission” – Mathew 28: 18 – 20.
Purpose & Objectives
The objectives and purpose of the Lay Organization are outlined in its Constitution. The main objectives are stated in brief as follows:
- To create the love and appreciation of the History and Principles of African Methodism.
- Keep the memory of Richard Allen alive.
- Respect Constituted Authority.
- Stimulate and Educate the Laity in the Total Program of the Church.
- Study the Discipline and learn the laws of the Church.
- Encourage Financial Support of the Church's Program.
- Teach and Practice Stewardship and work with the Youth to teach them Methodism.
- These objectives can best be met when one works to understand the program of the church and relate the church to the World around us. Become involved in Social Action such that the church is then our Community - our Job - Our School, and everywhere that many assemble he carries the church with him.
