A few years ago Pastor Ellis saw a need to retain our visitor population and accountability of Abundant Life Outreach Center members. As our church began to grow, it was evident the family-type atmosphere was losing its touch. In an effort to maintain this close environment he adopted the Tribe Ministry.
This ministry allows each member to be involved in some part of the body whether by assisting with fellowship gatherings, helping with church clean-up, visitations and other activities. Some of these tasks may seem small but they are vital to the body and help to foster teamwork within the tribe.
As our church continues to grow more tribes will be added. At this time, the church is broken down into four tribes. The tribes are broken down by last names; A-E (Tribe of Reuben) , D-M (Tribe of Simeon, N-R (Tribe of Levi) , S-Z (Tribe of Judah).
