MINISTRY MEMBERSHIP
We believe that effective evangelism can change people’s lives for eternity. Your decision to join GCS shows that you share this vision, and we’re looking forward to supporting you as your organisation continues its life-changing journey with us.
As a global network of networks, GCS plays a vital role to catalyse collaboration in the Body of Christ by connecting influencers and ideas for global mission. With the ultimate goal to build momentum in global evangelism, GCS provides a strategic opportunity, not only to share ideas, but to identify critical areas for collaboration that could strengthen the movement for Kingdom impact in every sphere of society. An intentional commitment to Kingdom collaboration is critical for evangelism to gain momentum and have widespread impact across the world.
Collaboration between members in the Body of Christ is vitally important because it reflects the very nature of the triune God and how he designed his Body to function. Whether it is a bilateral partnership of organisations, a multi-church network, or an informal alliance among like-minded ministries, Christian unity is demonstrated through practical partnering.

But the theme of diversity is equally present in the Scriptures through many descriptions of the varying roles, gifts, and functions in ministry (Romans 12, Ephesians 4, 1 Corinthians
12, Hebrews 2:4, John 4:35-38, 1 Corinthians 3:1-9, and Hebrews 11:39-40). The Scriptures say that one plants while another waters and one sows while another reaps, ‘so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together’ (John 4:35-38).
