[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]IDEOLOGY OF THE CHURCH \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Located and started within a peculiar student environment with various needs and concerns, the leadership then idealized and muted the idea of growing the church through evangelism and benevolence. These students came from all over the world and had urgent needs like the first-century church.
\nThe first minister and ordained preacher of the church took office in 2002. The minister, together with the then leadership, then conceptualized it and named it \u201cThe Jerusalem Concept,\u201d <\/strong>using benevolence and unflinching care with the utmost love for one another to conscientize and orient the members, who in no time bought into it. We say to the glorification of the Lord that this ideology has grown beyond our imagination with the guidance and direction of God, with the Church of Christ, Legon, known among the leading benevolent churches in Ghana. Given that the art of giving is accompanied by a corresponding blessing, the church can confidently assert that it has received blessings beyond our comprehension and continues to flourish. Our vision as a church was then fashioned along this ideology, which automatically informed our vision, mission, and core values, as well as our philosophy and culture. This approach changed members’ way of giving (offertory) as the church was always at the forefront of solving various concerns and needs of brethren.[\/vc_column_text][vc_tta_tabs][vc_tta_section title=”Vision” tab_id=”1765817785626-2d28d748-9178″][vc_column_text css=””]To become the leading benevolent church in the Greater Accra Region and beyond, modeling the first-century Jerusalem church.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Mission” tab_id=”1765817785634-34ba84a8-21d0″][vc_column_text css=””]The Church of Christ, Legon, exists to create the necessary and enabling environment for prospective Christians who are desirous to worship God in Truth and Spirit and are at all times determined to pursue sound biblical truth through sound teachings and specially designed life-modeling topics to equip them for better Christian living.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Core Values” tab_id=”1765817789347-1dcc1ed2-4e80″][vc_column_text css=””]A committed and dedicated leadership<\/p>\n
