Le Grain de Blé
(Grain of Wheat) partnership involves national
organisations consisting of committed Christians brought together
through a common faith in Jesus Christ and love for children.
While respecting our diversity, we share certain Core Values
and seek to reflect them in our ministries.
Our
Christian identity Our ministry is based on our belief in one God
- Father, Son and Holy Spirit - and in the infallibility
of Scripture. We confess salvation offered only through
faith in Jesus Christ. Our ministry’s identity
is centred on Christ, whilst being sensitive to the
contexts in which we serve.
Our
commitment to children We seek to reflect Jesus’ message and the
value and importance that He gives to children. Programmes
are designed to specifically meet their needs. Our activities
are inclusive of all children irrespective of race,
religion or gender.
Our
international identity Grain of Wheat is an international partnership
where each national organisation works within the context
of the Covenant of Partnership.
Our
will to work with national Christians People working with Grain of Wheat organisations
in each country are local Christians. They have a sense
ownership of the ministry. Simplicity and modesty characterise
their activities, most or all of which are carried out
within the country itself.
Our
relationship with the Church Not only do we work in partnership within Grain
of Wheat, we also cooperate with other ministries and
local churches where appropriate, as we are all part
of the Body of Christ.
Our accountability for the resources that God
provides Our policy of transparency and openness applies
to all aspects of the organisation, to finances and
to activities. We publish regular reports and keep
our constituents (donors, partners and those we serve)
informed.
Our
commitment to Excellence in service We strive for quality in all aspects of our ministry,
in the programmes we present, in staff training and
development and in administration. We seek to remain
innovative and to make the best use of modern technology.
