ABOUT US
The Mission
"We do not have forever to preach this gospel...Time is running out."
- Pastor Wayman Mitchell
We take seriously Christ's commission to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" and to "make disciples of all the nations."
Therefore, our mission continues to be that we fulfil Christ's Great Commission through evangelism, discipleship and church planting in the local Melbourne area, throughout Australia and internationally. It is simple obedience to this command that is the passion and driving force of our church.
With this focus, we are constantly endeavouring to reach unsaved and unchurched people with the gospel of Jesus Christ, and to spread the good news of God's love and saving grace throughout the world. Whether we use Christian bands, movies, dramas, street preaching or door-to-door evangelism... Our focus and goal is to help lead people into their own personal and saving relationship with the Saviour Jesus Christ and have their lives transformed.
Our History
In 1970 Wayman and Nelda Mitchell moved to Prescott to take over a small, struggling congregation. Shortly after arriving, God saved a number of young hippies who were very different than anyone in the church. But as they were welcomed, God began to pour out His Spirit on the congregation. As Pastor Mitchell sought to reach young people, they saw the possibilities of the “coffee-house” concert ministry. At the first concert they ever tried as an evangelistic tool, more than 200 young people attended, with many saved. Out of this a regular concert ministry was birthed. Two nights a week, bands played, testimonies of salvation were given and the Gospel was preached, with many being saved each night.
From the beginning, Pastor Mitchell understood that the concert ministry was to be a training ground of ministry development; It was run by young people who were committed to Jesus and His church. From the beginning, people who had been radically converted sought to share with others what God had done in them. Personal evangelism began to be one of the basic foundations of the church. Then came impact teams: Groups of people that would travel to other nearby cities to help people there experience what God was doing here. Over time, God began to reveal His plan of discipleship: Training young couples for ministry within a local church.
In 1973 the first couple was launched directly into the ministry – and God blessed them! Churches then began to be planted throughout the Southwestern United States, and then further across America as converts prayed for the Gospel to be preached in their hometowns.
In 1978 the first couple was planted into another nation – Australia; and it was discovered that the Gospel worked there, just like it did back home. After that, churches were planted in Mexico, Holland and Germany then as we came to understand God’s global mission more and more, churches began to be planted throughout the world. To date, there are over 3500 churches in 44 US states, and 120 nations of the world.
The Ringwood church was planted in November 2023, the story continues… we encourage you to come and be a part of it.
