Our Beliefs
Mission Educate is a Christian organisation serving a global community. Our Christian beliefs determine our Christian ethos and the values that are important to personal behaviour, organisational culture and outcomes. We endeavour to maintain unity with Christian believers who share the following beliefs as fundamental to their faith
We believe:
- That the Bible is the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God and is necessary for an understanding of the nature of God and His Creation, the development of faith, moral and ethical behaviour of individuals and organisations and the comfort and encouragement of Humanity.
- That there is one God, existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit who can be known personally in a relationship through His Son Jesus Christ.
- That the universe is the result of the intelligent design and creation by an omnipotent, omniscient and ever-present God.
- In the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His Virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His shed blood for the remission of sins, in His resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory.
- That each person is unique, the result of the individual creation of a loving God, deserving respect, created with the ability to learn, create, reason, value and discriminate and that these processes distinguish Humanity from the rest of creation.
- That a personal relationship with God is only found in salvation through faith in Jesus Christ by any individual who has acknowledged their need of a Saviour, repented and accepted His forgiveness.
- The family is ordained by God as the primary agency of socialisation and education and is the basis on which society functions.
- Education is the right of every individual regardless of gender, nationality, age, religion or socio-economic status and is a personal process of life-long learning, in which schooling and educational institutions play an important role.
- Each individual is created with a God consciousness, a self consciousness and a world consciousness and that quality education engages and develops all of these areas.
- Quality education involves the spiritual, ethical, social, intellectual, vocational and physical development of an individual and occurs within community for the benefit of both the individual and the many communities in which the individual interacts.
- In the reality of the Holy Spirit and His work in the lives of Believers.
- That the Church is made up of those who have been born of the Spirit and confess Jesus Christ as Lord.
- That Jesus Christ will return to earth as Lord at the end of time. This will have implications for those who believe or do not believe in Him.
Annual Reports
The Mission Educate Annual Report provides an overview of our operations and activities for the year.
It is an expression of our commitment to transparency and accountability and gives our supporters an indication of our development. While the Report contains financial and statistical information, we believe that the success of Mission Educate should be measured against its vision, mission and impact on people’s lives.
How You Can Help!
Your support impacts the lives of real people and their families by providing education opportunities.
We know that education is a catalyst that enables people to break free from the poverty cycle.
Your regular giving or once-only donation can help open a classroom door so children can attend school, provide vocational training and employment skills to unemployed young adults or enable illiterate adults to learn to read and write through our education projects in Mozambique.
You can bring hope where there has been despair for generations because knowing changes everything.
