SAO PAULO INTERNATIONAL ALLIANCE CHURCH
ABOUT SAO PAULO INTERNATIONAL ALLIANCE CHURCH
We are a Christian community that exists in a city that is cosmopolitan and influential. As such, we love and serve God recognizing that we must be missional, intelligent, merciful, and with a high sense of familiarity.
As part of The Alliance movement, we are a church that brings together people from all nations and cultures into loving RELATIONSHIPS, UNITED in Christ, being TRANSFORMED by Him to IMPACT all the nations and peoples of the world.
We believe that following Jesus always comes with a mission, so we will do whatever we can to point people to Jesus no matter where or what he calls them to! This is what it means when Jesus is LORD OF ALL in our lives!
We like to welcome, disciple, equip and send diaspora tentmakers throughout the world to reach least reached people groups with the Gospel.
OUR VALUES
We endorse the values of the Alliance Church of All Nations (CAN) movement.
VALUES underpinning the PURPOSE of, and the PASSION for, Alliance CAN Communities
1 - CONNECTION
We believe that God has built man to have a deep relationship with Him and to have deep relationships with His people. We believe that Jesus’ death and resurrection restores us to right relationships with God and his people.
Alliance CAN Communities are specifically focussed on:
● Embracing people from all tribes, languages, people groups, culture and nations, in line with Alliance DNA,
● Providing living family to those who do not have family due to cultural, relational and physical distances,
● Providing living relationships that reflect God’s relationship with his adopted sons and daughters, wherever they may come from, across all cultural and language barriers.
We believe that God connects people in Alliance CAN Communities for a reason, so we will do whatever we can to help people grow in their relationship with Jesus and our church families.
2 - TRANSFORMATION
We believe that there are no perfect people, just broken people who are looking to Jesus, seeking His TRUTH as He changes us. We believe that a relationship with Jesus changes EVERYTHING in our lives. We believe that as we worship Jesus, He will TRANSFORM us and the lives around us.
Alliance CAN Communities are specifically focussed on:
● Providing a safe place where people can learn about and experience the transformational love of a living God across all cultural and language barriers,
● The person of Jesus Christ, as our Saviour, Sanctifier, Healer and Coming King as expressed in the Alliance 4-Fold Gospel.
We will do whatever we can to help people worship Jesus, follow Jesus, and be changed by Him!
3 - MISSION
We believe that God made everyone for a purpose and that he is working in our lives to help us follow that purpose. We believe that God wants to work IN us and THROUGH us to impact the world.
Alliance CAN Communities are specifically focussed on:
● Discipling and equipping scattered, diaspora people into sent people on mission for God, wherever God has called them to serve as His people,
● Discipling and equipping the saints for cross cultural ministry, in particular, in relation to missions’ effort to reach least reached people groups with the Gospel.
We believe that following Jesus always comes with a mission, so we will do whatever we can to point people to Jesus no matter where or what he calls them to! This is what it means when Jesus is LORD OF ALL in our lives!
Historically, the Alliance has always been an Acts 1:8 movement where “Deeper Life” with the Holy Spirit stirs passionate mission focus and compassionate love for all.
