Proclaiming the Gospel
We do believe in the importance of Good News of salvation which is given to every human being through the Lord Jesus Christ. The gospel is proclaimed not only through words, but also through the lifestyle of every believer. We see it as our duty to preserve the power, purity, significance and soundness of the Gospel.
Faith teaching
For believers in Christ something bigger is important than just intellectual agreement with certain dogmas and principles of christian faith teaching. We believe that a christian must have personal faith in the written Word of God, he must try to live according to his faith and build live relationships with the Lord
Life in Spirit
The nature of the Lord is unchangeable and He still works in christians’ lives the same way as in the times of apostles. The guidance and leadership He provides through the Spirit who gives us power and grace for life and ministry, strengthens us in our infirmities, guides and leads us, sanctifies and comforts, heals and transforms.
Mission
We devote ourselves to the involvement and fulfillment of the Great Commandment of Jesus Christ, which is spoken to us in the Bible in Matthew 28:18-20 and Mark 16:15-18. We believe it is important to support missions, run humanitarian and social work, plant churches in our countries as well as abroad.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a U.S.-based youth ministry. For the Pentecostal church in New Hartford, NY, or the death of Lucas Leonard, see Word of Life Christian Church. For the Swedish-based church, see Livets Ord.
Word of Life Fellowship is an international evangelistic Christian ministry. The headquarters is in Schroon Lake, New York, in the United States.
History[edit]
In 1940, Word of Life Fellowship Bible Conference was founded by Jack Wyrtzen. [1] In 1941, he founded the Word of Life Camp Ministry, and in 1946 he purchased an island on Schroon Lake, New York, and opened Word of Life Camp in 1947. [2] By 2021, the ministry had camps, conference centers, Bible institutes, and church youth ministries in over 70 countries. [3]
