Feb 2010 AOCI Announcements

[Dr. Henry, President of the AOCI]

February 1, 2010, Monthly Announcements

Greetings fellow laborers in the vineyard of Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God! The Association of Clergy International represents hundreds of churches, ministries, denominations and ministerial associations. The Association of Clergy International is growing fast and the hand of the Lord is upon us and all of its members! We want to sincerely thank you for uniting in the vision of uniting the clergy from around the world. Only eternity will reveal what we have done in this part of life.

I want to provide you with some highlights and announcements concerning your fellowship with AOCI:

• We have updated our official website located at www.aoci.info upon recommendation from members; we have added an AOCI statement of faith and updated the “Benefits” tab. You can view the website at your convenience. We welcome your suggestions & feedback.
• More members are coming out to our first annual AOCI conference that will be held in the Atlanta, GA area. You don’t want to miss this historic conference. I believe the Lord has something special for all of us. If you think you may be attending please RSVP on the event tab so we can plan properly. This conference is Free to AOCI members and their guests. Date is December 11, 2010.
• We have appointed our first “Foreign Minister Contact” in India. Pastor Silvi Kothapally has been doing a great job in India. Many of you are aware of his sister church burning down. If you would like to help you can go to his church website at www.sem-india.org as the Lord leads you.
• If you have not up-loaded your photo (or logo) on your ministry webpage, we would like to encourage you to do so. You do this by going to the settings on the upper right hand side of your profile page.
• The AOCI has a page on face book. If you have a face book page we encourage you to become a fan. This is another avenue the Lord is using to let the Clergy of the world know that we are here for them. Feel free to add me as a friend if you would like. If you have a face book page and are planning to attend the conference we ask that you also RSVP on the face book page event tab. This shows the world that we have real ministers who are active with AOCI to the Glory of God.
• We are working on a beautiful authentic certificate of membership that will be available at the beginning of the 2nd quarter. Stay tuned for more details. You will be able to proudly display this in your office or home and show the world that you stand for unity among the clergy and to the body of Christ.
• We have an opening for a Media Director. You can click on the tab titled “Media Director Needed” on the main page for details.
• We would like to congratulate the members who were featured in December, January, and the new members who are featured in Feb. 2010. To be featured you must have a photo uploaded to your profile.
• The AOCI prays for you daily. We care and love you in the Lord and we are blessed by the work that you do to advance the Kingdom of God. We thank you for supporting the vision of unity. (Psalm 133:1; Eph. 2:13-22, 4:3-6; Rom. 12:3-8, 1 Cor. 12; Col. 3:15)


We are excited and honored to unite with you and your ministry to bring all the Glory to God.

Please feel free to invite your fellow clergy friends and family to unite with us as we pursue the LORD's work together.

For His Glory!
