Full
Circle Ministries International
FCMI is a new ministry being birthed in the heart of Madison,
WI with a threefold purpose:
1.
Caring for the Poor: Including outreach to the homeless,
to gothic teens and the throwaways of our society in the heart
of Madison where we offer food and friendship. Ministering
to the poor in India through a preschool for poor children
and (soon) an orphanage and school for the poor. Praying for
physical and emotional healing, loving them with Christ’s
love at home and abroad.
2. Uniting the Body: Connecting Christians from many
congregations locally (protestant and catholic) as we work
together, serving the poor and reaching the lost. Seeking
to encourage and unite the Body of Christ worldwide developing
friendships in the bond of Christ’s love with our brothers
and sisters in poorer countries. Laboring to bring revival
to the church in Madison and India in culturally appropriate
ways. Hosting all day worship/prayer gatherings in neutral
public facilities.
3. Reaching the Lost: Giving of ourselves, our
gifts, and our resources, loving them to Christ. Establishing
a positive image of Christ and Christians as we work united
in their midst. Praying with the lost, seeing the Lord touch
them through answers to prayer, healing and miracles. Sharing
God’s love and grace in Word and deed especially in places
where there is no witness of Christ.
FCMI is a team led ministry with an emphasis on relationship
centered ministry that is grounded in and built upon Christ’s
love and steeped in prayer. We experience Christ as we work
with and encourage one another. We find Christ in the lost
and the poor (see Matt. 25:31-40).
