Dear Brethren, Greetings in Jesus Name,

Jesus said, “ I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it”. Nobody will dispute the fact that Jesus himself is the founder of the church (Mat.16:18). Church- it has been a plan of God, the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations but is now disclosed to the saints. The NT word for the church is ecclesia in Greek, literal meaning is the “called out community” or “the elect ones”. They are so called because God, in His grace, called them out from the world or the worldly people or from darkness to light of the gospel to lead a new or holy life.

According to the Scriptures, the foundation of the church was laid on the day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was poured out first. (Acts2:1-4), the church was, certainly made perfect on the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended upon her. On the day of Pentecost apostle peter stood up and warned them and he pleaded with them “save yourselves from this corrupt generation”. Those who accepted his message were baptized and about three thousand were added to their member that day.

The fellowship of first century Christians was such that they counted their wealth as well as their spiritual blessings in common (Acts 2:42-47). They considered themselves as one family of God, sharing one another their joy, love and other benefits of salvation. We should have fellowship with the Triune God as well as with other members in the church. Our fellowship with God will not be complete without having a good relationship with our brothers and sisters.

We, the IGM CHURCH Ballinasloe, GALWAY, IRELAND , believes and propagate - the body of Christ functions in both visible/ local church and the invisible/universal church, which refers to all believers everywhere. The church is both God's concept and His plan for this age. Biblically speaking, the church is much more than a building and is all about the people.

The key to any true church are foundations in worship, edification and evangelism.

We believe in Worship which God-centered and Christ-centered. It is not about entertaining Christians with flashy displays or presentations, but about expressing our love by worshiping our Creator. We are to praise and glorify God in worship.

I invite you all to come and be blessed and have an encounter with God through our Spirit filled worship services and through the power of the profound Word of God which serves as a light in this confused and complex world. You will be Blessed!

May God Almighty bless you all.
