Who We Are
All the training needs of JHDC take place
in The Believers Academy.
It consists of three sections geared to teaching
Christ followers (based on their various stages of maturity
in Christ), as well as encouraging individuals to fully
maximize their potential for service in God’s Kingdom.
Our Vision
Our vision is to
teach people
during each stage in life, (with the Bible as the final
authority), new levels of
spiritual growth,
creativity, and
service in ministry.
Our Mission
To increase the
Spiritual Maturity,
Effectiveness,
and Involvement
of every member of the Church.
EQUIP – ENHANCE – INVOLVE
To
Equip people with
practical ways to
Grow and Mature in Christ. To
stir-up and
enhance their God-given Gifts
and Abilities, by showing them how to apply them as they
get involved in acts of
Service in and
outside the Church.
Department Sections
Believers
Academy consists of:
- Kingdom Life
- Foundation Class
- Sunday School
Kingdom Life
Consists of New Converts and Baptismal
classes. New
Converts is for individuals who recently surrendered their
lives to Christ and is designed to give new believers an
understanding of what it means to be a Christian, how to be
a better witness for Christ, and how to effectively run this
Christian race. The 5- week Baptismal class is given several
times a year to prepare candidates for Baptism by Immersion.
Foundation Class
This course is the next level after
Kingdom Life. Three 10-week sessions are held a year on
Sunday mornings between the 1st and 2nd services
and at 8:30 on 1st Sundays.
This class is mandatory for all volunteer church
workers to attend. It is also open to those who completed
Kingdom Life, as well as any member of the church.
This class is designed to teach key
foundational doctrines of the Christian faith to ensure that
all workers and other attendees have a solid understanding
and practical knowledge. Students take several tests and a
final exam.
A graduation ceremony is held annually
for all Foundation Class graduates.
Sunday School
Held twice on Sundays, 30 minutes before
services (except once at 9am on 1st Sundays).
