CSAFMI's Life-Builder Programs


SHARE Program
SHARE is an acronym for Shepherds Ad-Interim Resource Extension Program. This program is established to carry out the tasks related to the Mission of the Ministry. Its primary concern is to identify, prepare and equip every God-ordained servant whom the Lord Jesus Christ will lead to CSAFMI for caring and nurturing until they become able shepherds and are ready to answer His call. The secondary objective of the SHARE Program is to bring every member of the Ministry to the realization that each is a part of the Mission of the Church, having an inherent responsibility to share in the burden of preparing and equipping these chosen servants of God. The SHARE Program is available to all who are called of the Lord Jesus Christ to work in His vineyard, whether member or non-member of CSAFMI.
Shepherds & Flock Provision Program (SAFPRO)
This program is established to ensure that every family that makes up the Christian Community has income enough to support a decent living and that there is no needy person among them. Its primary objective is to ensure that every member of the Church has a job to earn a living. Therefore, its basic concern is to help every non-productive member of the Ministry to find their interests, encourage and assist them in their equipping until they become ready for the trade, are employed and become productive. Its secondary objective is to ensure that none of the members fosters indolence in the Christian Community.
Children’s Free Education Program
The Children’s Free-Education Program of CSAFMI is an initiative solely intended as a proper foundational education for all the members of the Ministry. As has been observed, quality education nowadays is becoming so costly that most of the children of this generation could no longer enjoy. We know that the absence of a proper education, a person would be deprived of many opportunities in life, specially his adaptation to the changing times. And having this scenario, CSAFMI has established this program to ensure that all the children of every member of the Ministry would receive a foundational tool in their life’s preparation for the future. This is a formal education accredited by the Department of Education from Nursery up to High School, and will be offered free to all the children of all the active and participative regular members of CSAFMI. Its secondary concern is to find God-ordained partners of CSAFMI in carrying out this blessed endeavor, aside from keeping tract that every financially able regular member fulfills their minimum commitment of support to this program.

CARE-Partners Program
This program is established to carry out the unification of the Church. Its primary objective is to bring every regular member of CSAFMI to the awareness that they are not alone in their walk with the Lord Jesus Christ. Here, every regular member will be partnered with four other regular members (Man to-men Woman-to-women). Each group will be called a Star-Group. Each has inherent responsibilities to counsel, assist, refer and encourage one another in the group. Its secondary concern is to make sure that the four Core Values of CSAFMI manifests in the life of every member of the Ministry.

CSAFMI's Statement Of Faith

We believe in the Bible.
That the Bible consisting of sixty-six Books of the Old and New Testaments is the inspired Word of God in their original writings, therefore, the infallible and the absolute authority in all matters of our faith and conduct. (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

We believe in the Trinity.
That the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three (3) distinct persons who are eternally existing and are perfectly united together as One Godhead, one not in number but in unity.

We believe in the humanity of Jesus Christ.
That the Son, the Second Person in the Trinity, set aside His divine form and took for Himself the form of a man, was conceived of the Holy Spirit, not of human father, and was born of a virgin. (Luke 1:31-25; John 1:14; Philippians 2:6-8).

We believe in the Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ.
That the Lord Jesus Christ was God in the form of a man, just as He has been God from the beginning and will always be unto eternity. (John 1:1; Revelation 1:8).

We believe in the saving work of the Jesus Christ.
That Jesus Christ lived a sinless life in perfect obedience to the Father, died a sacrificial death once and for all, resurrected bodily, ascended into the right hand of the Father, and forever lives as a great High Priest of all who will believe in His Name. (Romans 8:3-4; Hebrews 10:9-14).

We believe in the redemption of man from sin.
That through the sin of the first man, Adam, the whole human race sinned and became eternally lost and condemned. That man cannot be saved through his own work, and his only hope of salvation is solely on the merit of the atoning work of Jesus Christ. That by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, a man is saved and becomes a new creation in Him, and by that same faith he must live his life to the end. That man forfeits this salvation if he does not remain in Christ Jesus. (Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:8-10; Hebrews 6:4-6).

We believe in the baptism in water.
That every Christian must be baptized in water in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. That baptism in water cannot produce salvation but a public confession of our identification with Him and His death and resurrection. (Matthew 28:19).

We believe in the baptism in the Holy Spirit.
That the baptism in the Holy Spirit is an experience distinct from regeneration and is evidenced initially by speaking in other tongues. That this is a promise to all believers for the endowment of power in their witness of Christ and opens the gateway to the fullness of the blessings of the Gospel. (Acts 1:4-8).

We believe in the rapture of the saints.
That the Lord Jesus Christ will come again for the saints. That those who are dead in Christ will be resurrected and those believers in Him who are still alive will be translated to immortality and they will be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air and be together with Him forever. (I Thessalonians 4:13-17).

We believe in the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.
That the Lord Jesus Christ will return visibly with the saints to the earth to put down all rebellion and that He will rule the world for a thousand years. That at its conclusion, the wicked whose names were not written in the Book of Life will be cast into the eternal lake of fire. (Revelation 20:1-15).

We believe in the Lord’s Supper.
That believers must celebrate the Lord’s Supper as often as they can in remembrance of Christ’s work of atonement. (I Corinthians 11:23-26).

We believe in the Tithes.
That every believer must bring his whole tithe into the storehouse. That this is God’s ordained way for believers of supporting His work. (Malachi 3:10).
