Vision For Boston

BCEC's Vision is

"Because God has blessed us, we strive to be a blessing to the Chinese/Asian community and to our neighbors by sharing the love of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are compelled by a passion for God and by a compassion for people, all for the glory of God."

BCEC's Long Term Goal is

"By God’s grace, we desire BCEC to grow and actively cooperate with area churches and organizations to increase the percentage of Christians among the Chinese in the Boston area from 5% to 50% with 25 years (2030)."

We hope all our members will be united behind this Vision and Long Term Goal and will be praying, working, and supporting this dream because of the great spiritual need and God’s enablement. As we work together as a body on the three purposes of worship, edification, and outreach, we desire to see God’s blessing of fruitfulness. We want to reach the Chinese in the Boston area to reach the world.

Given this Long Term Goal, what kind of long term planning and preparation does God want us to do?
