Who we are.
The Seek The Lord network is a group of Christians who share a commitment to uphold a “Community of Care” and facilitate public gatherings of worship and prayer in our local context.
We deliberately pursue Christ-centered…
Belonging: to feel at home with each other and share ownership in upholding an environment that produces humility, warmth, and the fruit of the Spirit.
Teamwork: to work together to facilitate musical worship and prayer at gatherings, and offer one another accountability in ministry (highly regarding Christ-centered truth, grace, and mercy).
Collective Development: to intentionally gather in cohorts to share the journey of growing in Christ (physically, relationally, and spiritually), with the help of the Holy Spirit.
What we do.
Seek The Lord gatherings are facilitated times of Christ-centered Worship & Prayer, hosted in various spaces, all over the world.
As a micro-expression of the global church, we exist alongside traditional denominations as a non-denominational community, encouraging the freedom and access and diversity of theological perspectives among our members.
The primary focus of our gatherings are warmly hosted Christ-centered worship, prayer, and fellowship (over denominational formation or affiliation).
Statement of Faith.
We, as a Christ-centered church community, wholeheartedly believe in the Triune God, who eternally exists in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit. We affirm that God is the source of all creation and the ultimate authority in all things.
Our primary activity is to gather for communal worship through music and prayer. We also recognize that true worship is not confined to a specific time or place or activity but is a way of life—a continuous expression of adoration and devotion to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We come together as a community to lift our voices in praise, thanksgiving, and reverence for the greatness of our God and to embody the living gospel of Jesus in our localities.
We embrace the Bible as the inspired and infallible Word of God, the ultimate and only authoritative source of our faith and practice. We diligently study the Scriptures, seeking to understand and apply its teachings to our lives, both individually and as a community.
We believe that we are justified by faith in Jesus Christ alone, not by our own works or merits. Our salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in the atoning work of Jesus Christ on the cross. We trust in His finished work for our redemption.
We acknowledge that our salvation is entirely an act of God's unmerited favor and love. There is nothing we can do to earn or deserve it. It is by God's grace alone that we are forgiven, reconciled to Him, and granted the gift of eternal life.
As a Christ-centered community, we strive to live in love, unity, and communal support, being transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit to reflect the love and character of Christ in our lives. We seek to share the love and compassion of Christ to all through our faith and actions, and commit to promote God's Kingdom on earth (however we can, wherever we are).

Because we are not a “church” in the traditional sense, we exist alongside denominational structures and prioritize a community-based governance. In our case, leadership roles are be fulfilled by Christians who are called to leadership and possess the necessary qualities, skills, reputation, and theological understanding to safely serve our community (they can, and often are, ordained ministers or lay leaders/elders from various reformed denominations).

Financial giving is a personal decision, and there is no pressure or obligation for anyone to contribute.
We generate monthly financial reports that detail cash inflow and outflow, as well as a breakdown of expenses related to both material and spiritual accomplishments. These reports are made accessible to all donors, promoting transparency and communal accountability.
Through our transparent and accountable approach to financial giving and expenses, we strive to build trust and strengthen the sense of community within our church. We are grateful for the generous support of our donors, and we believe that together, we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of our congregation members and the broader community we serve.
