“I was hungry and you fed me, I was thirsty and you gave me a drink, I was homeless and you gave me a room, I was shivering and you gave me clothes, I was sick and you stopped to visit, I was in prison and you came to me.’

“Then those ‘sheep’ are going to say, ‘Master, what are you talking about? When did we ever see you hungry and feed you, thirsty and give you a drink? And when did we ever see you sick or in prison and come to you?’ Then the King will say, ‘I’m telling the solemn truth: Whenever you did one of these things to someone overlooked or ignored, that was me—you did it to me.’

The Gospel of Matthew 25:34-40 (Message)

The Purpose of Mission M25:

* Resource M25 Ministers
* Minister to M25 People

The Program of M25

* Networking

Mission M25 provides identity and connectivity for those ministers and ministries of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church that are involved in outreach to the M25 people. Non – IPHC ministers and ministries are welcome to become a part of this effort.

* Equipping

Mission M25 is a tool for equipping men and women and/or organizations who feel the call to minister to the neglected people of the world, but do not know what to do. Mission M25 provides short seminars, one-week classes, 30-90 day training sessions, and a one-year (hands-on) course.

* Healing

Mission M25 realizes that those who minister to the oft-neglected peoples of the world pay a great price emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Connective relationships for those in such specialized ministries are very important to prevent burnout. However, when burnout does occur, restoration is vitally needed. Mission M25 works to prevent ministerial burnout and to bring healing to those who suffer from its effects.

DENOMINATIONAL CONNECTIONS

Although Mission: M25 welcomes ministers and ministries from other denominations, its background and foundations are linked to the organizations listed.

International Pentecostal Holiness Church (IPHC)
The IPHC Ministries (also known as the International Pentecostal Holiness Church) is a historic pentecostal denomination and trace our beginnings back to the late 1800s. Briefly, we believe in Justification by Faith, Sanctification, Baptism in the Holy Spirit, Divine Healing
and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

Evangelism USA (EVUSA)
Evangelism USA (EVUSA) is a ministry division of the IPHC, whose goal is to plant churches in the major urban centers of America where the IPHC has no presence or where its presence is of such a nature as to make its ministry ineffective.

Great Plains Conference (GPC)
The Great Plains Conference is a designated resource and leadership center for the International Pentecostal Holiness Church, covering West Texas, New Mexico, the panhandle of Oklahoma, and including some churches/ministry centers outside of the region.

Christian Heritage Church (CHC)
Established in 1935 as the First Pentecostal Holiness Church of Amarillo, Christian Heritage is a family-oriented, Pentecostal church with a dedication in evangelizing to the lost and reconciling them to Jesus Christ. Christian Heritage’s Philosophy is turning failures to success through evangelization, participation, celebration, and equipping in an atmosphere of love, acceptance, and forgiveness. Their Vision is “Building a City of Refuge.”
