Our Mission
In September of 1981, the Lord supernaturally spoke
to Gerald and Becky Watson and said, "Will you go to Chicago for
me?" Immediately they knelt by their bed and prayed the prayer of
consecration to be obedient to the Lord.
In January of 1982 they moved from Tulsa to Chicago
and began fulfilling this call of God on their lives. They started the
church on January 31 and as directed by the Lord, started in the
downtown area of Chicago.
All that we do here at Victory Ministries Church is
based upon the fact that we believe that all Scripture is divinely
inspired of God and we hold to these Scriptures as our order of living.
Our vision is basically three-fold:
-
Victory Ministries Church is a
family
church. We believe in ministering the Word and the life of
God to each member of the family, from infants to adults. Our goal is
that we all be unified in the love of God and that each of us reach
spiritual maturity in Christ Jesus, our Lord.
-
Victory Ministries Church is a
Charismatic
Teaching Center. We are a church that believes in
receiving teaching from the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and
Teachers that the Lord has placed in the Body of Christ for our building
up. We bring men and women of God in on a regular basis to feed us God's
Word from their area of expertise.
-
Finally, we are a World Outreach Center. We
have a vision for the world. We see ourselves as a church helping God in
carrying His great Salvation message throughout the nations. That
message is simply this: that God loves them and has forgiven them of all
their sins through Jesus Christ, His Son, who imparts eternal life to
all those who believe and who is coming back for them soon.
We invite you to join with us as we run with the
vision the Lord has given us and reach the heart of Chicago for Jesus in
a grand and glorious style!
