Mobile ministries are the most efficient and effective means I have found
to transport groups. Inherent in the design of Angelos Mobile Ministry,
Inc. are community and journey.
Scripture attests to the value of community and the concept of the Trinity itself speaks to the need for us to live in relationship with God and one another. We also, are on a journey or pilgrimage living dynamic lives seeking to grow and live more fully surrendered to Christ. Angelos desires to help all associated with its ministry to grow in these areas with the help of the Holy Spirit.
As people travel together and share common experiences, spend time away with direction and guidance in the presence of the Holy Spirit, more takes place than transportation...transformation can occur.
The Name:
ANGELOS is Greek for “messenger”. One who is sent to announce, teach, perform
or explore anything… as delegates or messengers of the churches of God,
it also is the word for “angel”.)
Mission Statement:
Angelos Mobile Ministry, Inc. shall uniquely combine acts of service, proclamation
and transportation on a journey of transformation through the Holy Spirit
into greater Christ-likeness.
Servant-minded Staff:
One of the main differences in our staff and secular commercial carriers
is the heart with which we serve. As Christian brothers and sisters we
approach your event with the same heart you have. AMM understands the trip
is not more important than the passengers and that we are ultimately on
“God’s schedule.”
AMM will be covering you and your group in prayer from the time we first talk to well after the event. AMM genuinely desires to have you pray for us as well and hope for an ongoing fellowship of support and encouragement.
The Staff:
One of the blessings of our location is that AMM resides in a resource
rich community. In AMM’s hometown are many wonderful people from the community,
Asbury College and Asbury Seminary. AMM is excited about the quality of
people which surrounds it. Many of these volunteer staff persons are pursuing
ministry degrees or are very committed Christians seeking to take their
faith into the secular workplace.
AMM is humbled by the depth and strength of the volunteers serving as trip staff.
Unique Tool for Ministry:
The vehicle used is a unique tool known in the
industry as a “sleeper coach”. The way the coach is configured is what
makes it so effective. Seating in the coach is around the perimeter, so
everyone can see each other as they travel and no one is left out. So,
while the coach is rolling, groups can be strengthened through group building,
worship, teaching or debriefing. At night, the coach is converted into
sleeping quarters and participants continue toward their destination while
they sleep.
This unique coach also carries with it the capability to prepare food. While it is not equipped with an actual kitchen; tables, cooking supplies and cook-stoves are stored on the coach allowing passengers the option of cooking for and serving one another. Having this added dimension increases the opportunities for ministry. In the event of a disaster this mobile unit can transport people and supplies to locations of need and offer assistance without taxing a community for much-needed resources. AMM can be seen as a “self-contained” unit. AMM hopes to have a team of people available to render care serving as a spiritual presence in areas shortly after they experience a disaster.
The transformative process can happen in a variety of ways. AMM strives to offer the most versatile options to encourage the purposes of your particular trip.
Ministry Experiences:
The destinations are determined by the groups employing
AMM’s services, however, AMM will be happy to share recommendations for
trips which are especially beneficial. It is the genuine desire of AMM
to be involved in as much outreach as possible. Years of experience show
that the trips which require giving and serving others are most often the
most powerful and rewarding.
