Element believes in the Great Commission. That's why we exist so "People who are far from God" will meet Jesus no matter what nation they live in. Element Church is making a difference in our local community! It's a difference that is tangibly felt in communities like Alexander Mills. There are hundreds of opportunities for you to get connected and serve those in need.

Going Global 20.20.20: Going Global is an opportunity for every member of Element Church to
be an active part in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost world. There are three
powerful elements to this initiative; Prayer, Fasting, and Giving. The idea is simple, combining these three spiritual disciplines to produce maximum results.
Here’s how it works:

20 – On the 20th day of each month, we agree to skip lunch or another meal so that we can pray
and fast for our Missions. The week prior to the 20th those participating will be given a specific
mission opportunity to pray for.

20 – We agree to pray for at least 20 minutes for our Missions and the highlighted mission
opportunity.

20 – We agree to make a small sacrifice and give the $20 that we would have spent on lunch that
day to Missions.

Why fasting?
We realize this is something we don’t practice much these days, but it is based on the story in the New Testament where the disciples were trying to cast an evil spirit out of a young boy, without success. When Jesus was able to do what they couldn’t, even with their best efforts, the disciples wanted to know why. His response was “This kind of power comes only from prayer and
fasting”. (Mark 9:29)

Vision 20.20.20 doesn’t and shouldn’t take the place of regular tithing: But, imagine if only
100 people committed to this plan, that would be $2,400 a month - $24,000 a year and no
Saturdays spent washing cars, having to sell things – instead we can spread God’s love in our
community, state and internationally. Now, imagine the power of your commitments to focus
your prayers on Missions.

We encourage you to make this a monthly ritual instead of writing a check for the whole year so
that you will be reminded to pray for Missions. And if $20 is stretching your budget, give what
you can. Your money is needed – but your Prayers are just as important!
Come join us on mission to spread the good of Jesus Christ!
