ARC's - Apostolic Resource Centers
An ARC is like a stewardship center that serves:
- As a hub interconnecting house churches, home meetings, churches, ministries and saints with the city/county or regional Church.
- As a training center encouraging, supporting, and equipping church planters, strategic leaders, and intercessors representing every sphere of society and the five fold ministry utilizing as much as possible the local gifts God deposited in people He placed in that community.
- As a strategic operations center communicating, coordinating, and facilitating the gathering of spiritual intelligence and supporting the strategic councils formed to represent the 7 spheres of society and the five fold ministry. As strategic prayer and action plans are developed the ARC facilitates the mobilization of the people and the implementation and coordination of the plan under the direction of their councils.
- As a resource center where the gifts, talents, abilities, and anointings in people are assessed and prepared for distribution into their community.
- As a resource center where financial and practical resources are received and distributed.
- To build the wall of prayer in a city or region as each house church, church or home meeting covers one day per month with 24/7 prayer.
