Purpose & Structure

Charitable Purpose

The Overall Authentic Word Ministries’ Vision is to prepare the bride of Christ through a wholistic approach: Spirit, Soul and Body. The AWM/ZTCC Goal is to be taught by the Lord: “All your children shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be the peace of your children.” (Isaiah 54:13). The AWM/ZTCC Mission is threefold: (i) to train believers to discover and realise their God-given purposes, (ii) to disciple believers to fulfil the great commission through the seven spheres of Influence, and (iii) to establish enduring partnerships with organisations in a quest to fulfil our mission This will be achieved through partnering with the government on all Immigrant programmes, including settling Immigrants into New Zealand communities and providing other support and assistance consistent with this charitable purpose, especially to youth and those who are in need.
