Lifelink is all about connections. It's all about a group of churches across the UK, USA, mainland Europe, with relationships into Southern America, southern Africa, India and China and beyond who have chosen to work together, supporting one another in the role God has given them in his Kingdom. Each church that affiliates with Lifelink is unique and has its own character and mission. They share a passion for Jesus, a devotion to the Kingdom of God and a compassion for the world. Lifelink exists as a means for churches to communicate effectively, encourage one another, benefit from conferences and training, and support one another in seeing the advance of God’s Kingdom on the earth.
Ephesians 4:11-13 says, "He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ."
The Churches Working Together have recognised that God appoints apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers to bless and challenge his church. The apostolic company of these Ephesians 4 ministries is at the heart of Lifelink and each church benefits from this oversight.
God has provided for the building of His church through the gifted leaders: apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, and evangelists.
