Serve
Serve the Lord, Serve the church and make a difference for others.
1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV) “Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”
You can serve God by serving others around you. For instance, you can serve by coaching, or helping the elderly, thus preaching the sermon through your kind heart of service.

An invitation to men, regardless of status, race or age, to be part of a dynamic and growing army of men in service to Christ.
“All those who were in trouble or owed someone money or were discontented gathered around him, and he became their leader.” 1 Samuel 22:2
“These are the names of David’s mighty warriors…” 2 Samuel 23:8
Transforming weak men into mighty warriors and leaders. The Men’s Ministry is a vital part of the vision of Fruitful House. This is part of our no member left behind the concept and sees that every man is fully assimilated into the church and totally cared for. Our Men‘s Ministry is committed to developing men who are responsible, godly, and accountable to the teachings of the Bible. It is also designed to foster fellowship among the men of the church. Our Men’s Ministry is to GROW men of deep faith, a deep sense of leadership who are mobilized for Kingdom Service.

Women’s Ministry
We invite all women, regardless of status, race or age to connect with other women with a deep sense of sisterhood.

Equipping and empowering women to be wise builders. The Women’s Ministry is a vital part of the vision of Fruitful House, serving the needs of women. It is important for all women at Fruitful House to take their place in the body of Christ, participate in the growth of the church and moving into all that God has called us to do.

Sign up your children from toddler to preteen to our Children’s Church and we shall nurture and unleash the champion in them.
“He (Jesus) said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” Mark 10:14
“…and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.” 2 Timothy 3:15
Equipping children to love Jesus, serve Jesus and share Jesus with the world. Children are a priority at Fruitful House. Our philosophy is that children are as equally important as the adults and therefore we develop a ministry tailored to their understanding and needs. They learn Bible stories, learn inspired songs, and make new friends; they play, pray and build a foundation for what it means to follow Jesus. Ages catered for are from infancy through 7th grade. The children we serve come from diverse backgrounds. We also cater for special needs children as God is laying on our heart to design special needs friendly environment.
We consider it an honor as well as a privilege to co-labor with our parents in their child’s spiritual development. We provide classes for children away from the parents that allow you the adult the comfort and peace of mind to attend the adult services while knowing your kids are not only safe and comfortable but also learn and GROW in their faith.

We invite you to become a member of the Fruitful House Family. Would you like to make it official?
“Their (church leaders) responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ” Ephesians 4:12
“He always prays for you that you will grow to be spiritually mature and have everything God wants for you.” Colossians 4:12
We are offering you and your family an invitation beyond a warm hand of fellowship and extending to membership. It means you’ve got the village at your corner and we’ve got your back. It means you will be equipped for God’s service and disciplined to GROW and mature spiritually. The difference between “attendees” and “members” can be summed up in one word: Commitment. We live in an age where very few want to be committed to anything: a job, a marriage, our country. Membership swims against the current “consumer religion” and a generation of “church shoppers and hoppers”. Every team must have a roster. Every school must have an enrollment. Every business has a payroll. Every army has an enlistment. Even our country takes a census and requires voter registration.
For more information about Membership,
We challenge you to adopt a lifestyle of outreach. It is our way of living.
“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in Judea, and in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
A Christian has two lifestyles, either fellowshipping or witnessing. We reach a dying world with love and kindness. Outreach lifestyle offers that we live out our days with the consciousness that our lives are the only Bible some will read. Our act of kindness or otherwise, our kind speech or otherwise, and our very living become our greatest witness for Christ. Whether at church, at home, at work, at school, at the grocery store, or gas station we are Christ’s ambassadors. Therefore, each one reaches one by touching lives with the love of Christ, one person at a time.
Community Projects. We do community projects on a church level as well. We minister to the homeless, minister to the less privileged, partner with shelters and prison ministries as well as the traditional door to door and outdoor leafletting. These opportunities to share the gospel of the Kingdom of God GROWS our faith beyond leaps.

You can be baptized by water if you believe in Jesus and have confessed Him as your Lord and Saviour. We organized that for you.
“Jesus said, ‘Go then, to all people everywhere and make them my disciples, baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit…” Matt. 28:19-20
“…many of the people who heard Him believed and were baptized.” Acts 18:8
What does baptism mean? Baptism doesn’t make you a believer — it shows that you already believe. Baptism is like a wedding ring — it’s the outward symbol of the commitment you made in your heart. It illustrates Christ’s death and resurrection and shows that we were buried with Christ and were also raised with Him Colossians 2:12. Baptism signifies my new life in Christ. Romans 6:4. Now it’s time to GROW!
Why do we baptize? Because Jesus commanded it, Matt. 28:19-20. Also, to follow Jesus’ example as Himself was baptized Mark 1:9. Everyone who has believed in Jesus should be baptized Acts 2:41.
When do we baptize? There is no reason to delay. As soon as you receive Christ into your life, you can and should be baptized. If you wait until you are “perfect”, you’ll never feel “good enough”! Acts 2:41

If you are reading this either you are youth/young adult or connected to one. We invite you to explore this ministry further.
“Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity.” 1 Timothy 4:12
Engaging and mentoring radical youth for Christ. The traditional way of “doing church” means very little to our young people. Today’s youth are unique in many ways and it takes a distinctive ministry with a unique bend to impact their lives for Jesus Christ. They need to see adults who are radical for Christ and are not ashamed to live for Him. But we cannot win them by forcing them to be younger clones of adults. Our youth are contending against an onslaught of the enemy, and many churches do not know how to reach out to this young generation, and our families do not understand how they think, communicate and what motivates them. In our “no member left behind” concept, the Youth and Young Adults in Fruitful House are engaged and mentored in a holistic approach through programs that stimulate their interest, satisfy their longings, inspire their lives, mentor their dreams and dare them to grow to be radical for Christ and not ashamed to live for Him. They are defying all the menace, navigating the pitfalls and are becoming purpose-driven adults.

Friend, do you know Jesus Christ? Or would you like to know Him better?
“And this is eternal life, that they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.” John17:3
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16
Why is it necessary or important to know Christ? We are glad you asked.
You see, without the intervention of Christ man was destined to eternal death, which is separation from God. But God would not have it that way. Christ is God’s return ticket to every human from a world of condemnation to His domain of redemption, blessing and life everlasting. It is our choice. The bible says “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9 Say this prayer:
Dear God, I’m sorry for my sins. I ask you to forgive me.
Thank you for dying on the cross for me.
I want to follow you from now on.
Come into my life and make me a new person inside.
I accept your gift of salvation.
Please help me to grow now as a Christian.
In Jesus name. AMEN!
