Our Ministries
At the inception of our congregation, the Lord started highlighting different areas that we were to strengthen, in order to support the work He had in His heart for Wilmington.

Home Groups
|
|
|
The core belief is that our love for God can be expressed through our love for the people around us. We engage in spending time with people during home group meetings where meals, friendship, and personal ministry are the main ingredients to loving Him.

"And in Him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His Spirit" - Ephesians 2:22 |
As one of the cornerstone Scriptures for our body, we believe God is building people together through real relationships to create a place where the Holy Spirit dwells in power. Home Groups help to accomplish this mission by getting past surface relationships and creating a place for people to be real and to experience God together.

WORSHIP
We are building a strong culture of worship that is centered around connection and fellowship with the Lord. We are learning to worship Him in Spirit and in Truth, as we believe in an atmosphere of freedom for expression, as well as touching the Lord's heart with our corporate worship.
Our goal is to cultivate a safe environment that encourages all to explore their own personal expressions of worship and praise.
CHILDREN'S MINISTRY
|
Our children's ministry is designed to create a space where the children can encounter the Lord and learn to hear His voice as their relationship with Him develops. We believe children of any age have spiritual gifts that are accessible now through the Holy Spirit residing in them. We want to give them the opportunity to discover those gifts and to realize their calling. We desire to see them move forward in boldness, with sensitivity to and hunger for the Lord, ministering to and being a light to those around them.

PROPHETIC MINISTRY
"Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy. For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries. But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men"
- I Corinthians 14:1-3
We believe that the prophetic ministry is part of our spiritual inheritance to release words of encouragement, edification, and comfort to people who need to hear His heart for them. We continually train and encourage our congregation to pursue the Lord with love and develop a keen sense of their prophetic destiny. The result is a strong gift of prophecy being employed to demonstrate His kingdom for the people visiting our congregation and also for the marketplace.
AWAKENING
WOMEN'S MINISTRY
Awakening developed out of a need for community and vision for the women of MorningStar Fellowship in Wilmington, NC.
We seek to be women who are fully awake: to our Lord, to ourselves, to our destinies, and in our relationships. As we live fully awake, we will awaken those around us and provide solutions to the problems on the earth.
We have monthly meetings with various times and locations, depending on the activity. We also have book/Bible study groups at intervals throughout the year. In addition to the meetings and groups, we plan and execute times for outreach in the community.
