The Church has two foundations: Jerusalem and Rome. Under the Roman Emperor Constantine some corrupt practices were allowed into the church. Various attempts to reform the church since then have led to denominations and divisions in the Body

of Christ.

In our time the Holy Spirit is not just reforming but restoring His Church back to the Jerusalem foundation. This vision of the Church is at the heart of the ministry of the New Covenant Church. Here the leadership is not sitting on top of a pyramid, but forming with Christ a platform (foundation) on which men called of God can freely exercise their ministries.

NCC operates on the three pillars of Discipleship, Cell Group, and Celebration. The emphasis is on individual members making disciples on a one-to-one basis.About NCC Streatham The disciples meet from house to house for fellowship, mutual support and mentoring. These groups then meet on Sundays to celebrate Christ in corporate worship and ministry of the Word.

In a nation the branches of the church are divided into conferences headed by Conference Pastors. These pastors form the national council that govern and guide the affairs of the church, and are led by a National Overseer. In turn the National Overseers together with the General Overseer lead the global network of ministers.

Currently we operate in 25 countries: from Britain to Brazil, from Nigeria to Pakistan, from Spain to Canada, from Poland to USA.

Interesting facts: I had an encounter with God on the fi rst of January 2008. While I was living with a group of friends, as a member of a gang in south east London. I heard a voice that said; “there is more to life than this, I have a plan for your life”. That encounter has helped to transform my life, making me an epitome of grace and transformation, with the mission to build destinies of young people through the teaching of the word of God.

Favourite Hobby: Reading and thinking; playing drums and African drums; playing football; playing table tennis and spending time with my family.

Favourite TV Show: I am not a tv person, thought I’m subject to watching whatever my wife watches, i tend to watch the news.

Gabriel is married to Bridget and they have a son; Salvatore

HumilityThe topic for the month of February is “Unity through Humility” and is a sub-theme of the church’s overall Bible Study theme for 2017: “Discipleship and Christian Character”. On what I would like say: Humility is a vital and fundamental Christian virtue and a sign of

maturity. This month’s topic promises to be thought-provoking and exciting.

Grace and peace to you all.

The counselling group is set to start a surgery in the church that will allow for those in need of spiritual and physical

assistance to have someone to speak to.

The purpose of this is for us to be our brothers’ keepers and spread the love of Christ amongst ourselves by lifting up those whose heart and knees are weak.

There are a number of people amongst us who have various needs and are groaning quietly in the corner of their rooms not wanting to talk to anyone.

We want to provide an avenue for these ones to discuss their issues in full confi dentiality and an assurance that they have someone who is willing to share their burden.

This is an opportunity for us to stand up and be our brothers’ keepers.

Help to strengthen the feeble knees and rekindle someone’s hope in Christ.

A word of comfort could be just what that brother or sister needs. This will be taking place every last Saturday of the month.

Starting from: Saturday 25th February Time: 12-2pm.

This is an opportunity for you to share your burden with someone who really cares.

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfi l the law of Christ.”

Gal 6:2
