Just So You Know!

We have many opportunities for every person to minister and in turn, be ministered to here at Winners Chapel International, Birmingham. There is a place for everyone so take time to explore the various areas where you can serve and get involved in the different ministry opportunities.

There are many benefits of Kingdom Service and, God’s word in Exodus 23:25 validates a few of the benefits that,“you shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee”. One of the most rewarding things you can do is be of service to others. It not only helps others but it also helps you.

Amongst other things, it gives you self-confidence and more importantly, great joy. So take the time to pray about where God wants you to serve and get plugged in. Remember, “…it is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). As you give your time and services, God’s blessings will never elude you and your household in Jesus name.
