The ecumenical development has gone about as a connection between all the more common society and the individuals who take after a religious belief. Christian churches have individuals and groups today that have helped millions of individuals through their cooperation to administer care to others and the environment. They promote a wide range of causes through websites, fundraisers, hands on work, and numerous diverse organisations. A few areas they focus on are healthcare and poverty.

The church is located in a rural area, which several members drive a good distance to get to church. The church’s membership consist of 200 people and only 5 people are employed. The church has three services it provides during the week, which is bible education classes, Ministerial Classes/Leadership, and prayer night.
