UNITY
One prayer Jesus prayed:
That Christians would be one.
“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you… Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.” [John 17]
Netzer Aims…
… to see the prayer Jesus prayed in John 17 answered in our day. At the same time, we recognize this is a generational work of God. So we hope, pray, and give to see Jesus’ Church unified in her rich and beautiful diversity.
