Located
in Hinesville, Georgia, House of Prayer Christian Church is a strong center of
spiritual living for the Christians who attend weekly Bible studies, worship
services, and prayer meetings. Missionary activity remains a strong facet of
the outreach work conducted by House of Prayer Christian Church. The church
recently sent three members on a missionary trip to India. In preparation for
the trip, they spent time in serious reflection, in order to be perfectly clear
on why they were going on their mission, where they planned to work, and with
whom. In India, the missionaries from House of Prayer Christian Church met and
collaborated with native preachers and Bible students to preach and pray in the
streets of Mumbai and the South Indian city of Chennai. The missionaries strove
to follow the example of the apostles in the Scriptures and made a practice of
prayer and fasting. They met their contacts, both planned and unplanned, and
felt in the end that the trip had been fruitful. Returning to Hinesville,
Georgia, the missionaries told others in the House of Prayer Christian Church
about their experience, hoping to share the knowledge they had gained. In order
to promote the goal of its missionary work further, House of Prayer Christian
Church has a Bible Seminary, where men and women can study the Scriptures and
learn how to preach and explain them. At the school, both faculty and students
strive to live spiritual virtues and avoid worldly preoccupations. Students at
House of Prayer Bible Seminary express gratitude for the instruction they receive
and the opportunity to serve others. The seminary is currently exploring the
process of accreditation and would like to sponsor military chaplains and allow
students to use their G.I. bills to pay for their seminary education in the
future.
