Assists the Local Church
We believe the church is the visible presence of our Lord Jesus Christ and our mission is to assist local churches. We have developed tools to help churches identify leaders, build teams and equip their believers as witnesses. The goal is that their unbelieving family members, friends, neighbors, and co-workers may know Jesus Christ and join their church.
CAN tools are for existing small groups and also for other members of the church. If a church already has a local outreach initiative, CAN tools can be used by them. As a result, when people decide to believe in Jesus Christ, those new believers will become part of your church and not CAN. If any of the CAN Team members have deeper spiritual, theological, and doctrinal questions, they should reach out to their pastor or small group leaders. CAN is not a church, it is not part of any church, nor will it become a church. CAN does not replace any ministry of the church.

Empowers the Believers
Being a missionary to those who have not heard the Gospel is very different from being a witness to unbelieving family members, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. The challenges are unique because they already know about Christianity. However, they have built up defenses that shield them from making a decision for Christ. Some are hurt by Christians and Churches, while others perceive Christianity as political power, and some others believe the Christian faith is not relevant. Hence, being a witness is not easy.
Rekindle
Many believers have the desire to share the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ with their family members, friends, neighbors, and co-workers. However, many have tried, failed, and are afraid to try again. Our strategy starts with rekindle that passion they have for the lost.
Empower
Sharing the Gospel with those who already have reasons against it, can push them further away from God. We may not know what is going on in their personal lives, but God does. The Holy Spirit empowers us to understand, listen, speak, and behave in a way that meets the deep needs of those individuals.
Connect
Jesus is God, He could have done it all by Himself, instead He worked as a team. He modelled it for us. Everything in life is a teamwork, family, church, work, fun, studies, sports, etc. Teams may not always make you feel comfortable, but it will make you grow stronger towards the purpose. CAN connects believers to a team or helps them build one.
Send
Jesus said, “I am sending you the way my Father has sent me” he said this towards the end of his earthly ministry. By that time He rekindled their passion for the lost, built a team for them to lean on and asked them to wait till Pentecost. CAN program helps believers develop a lifestyle of being sent.
