Act Justly. Love Mercy. Walk Humbly.
Systems
A healthy church runs on healthy systems. Six:Eight's systems are listed below. These systems govern the life of our church community from necessary logistics to cross-cultural missions. They do not exist in a vacuum - each affects the others. All have a system leader and are described below. System leaders make up what we call our Vision Family - for names and contact information, visit the People page.
Impressions
Impressions concerns your first ‘impression’ on a Sunday morning, our front porch ministry, the first thing people experience about Six:Eight. It deals with greeters, hospitality, set up & breakdown, etc. It exists to welcome people & enhance worship, funneling people into all church systems; helping them find their place, experience Jesus, and get connected in their own time.
For more information on how to be involved. send us an email.
Community Groups
Community Groups are smaller, more intimate versions of the larger church community. They are where we experience spiritual transformation through study, prayer & care. They take us deeper with each other, Jesus & our neighbors. They are places of growth, have open doors, and are places to do Kingdom together.
For more information about our current groups, leaders. send us an email
Kingdom Opportunities
This system provides intentional opportunities for us to live out Six:Eight's mission to be the hands, feet and voice of Jesus in the Eastern Main Line area and to join God in the kingdom work He is already doing here. It’s our bridge & connection point to others where we earn credibility, respect & build relationship with neighbors.

Prayer
Prayer is essential, we want to be a ‘house of prayer for all nations’ (Isaiah 56:7b). A strong prayer ministry, active & growing, is being developed at Six:Eight. It exists to discern the Spirit’s voice & for overall church system health. As well as, to develop well trained mature people available to lead others through healing prayer & break the bonds of past, negative influences in our lives. It exists to seek direction & hear the voice of the Spirit, both corporately & individually.
For more information about our prayer system, upcoming trainings, joining the prayer team or to schedule a time of soaking prayer. send us an email
Worship Arts
Our Worship Arts system includes our worship team, preaching, communion, announcements, overall communication, and all other related elements of our Sunday worship service. It exists to provide a strong worship experience, teaching, spiritual challenge, clear communication, and to help guide and direct people to all other church systems.
As Six:Eight, the worship team desires to faithfully magnify the beauty, majesty and holiness of God in Jesus Christ. The team's mission is to, by example, faithfully encourage the believer and unbeliever to know, love and surrender to Jesus Christ more.

Church Planting & Missions
Church Planting & Missions is another vital system at Six:Eight. This is where we look to the future and ask, “Where does God want us to go next in the world regionally and globally?” The Church Planting & Missions system exists to provide a global framework for all systems, reminding us, although we have a strong local vision, our work does not stop there. God is about all nations (people groups), and we want to follow wherever he may lead us in the world.
To learn more about the individuals that Six:Eight currently supports & the initiatives our church is a part of. send us an email. One simple, helpful resource for daily personal quiet times is Joshua Project's Unreached of the Day prayer tool, which can help us grow in our understanding of God's heart for all people groups.
Kids
Our kids are vital to the kingdom. We seek to include and disciple them like the rest. This system exists to integrate kids into all areas of church life, reminding them, they are valid to Jesus and useful in His kingdom work. Like us, they have influence, and we seek to include them in the collective vision of the church. We have various classes for different age groups on Sunday mornings during our service.
For more information. send us an email.
Stewardship
Stewardship exists to sustain all systems. We don’t want money ever to be a limiting factor in ministry. As members of Christ’s Body, we’re unashamed to say all that we are, have and own belong to God. Therefore, if we say we are maturing committed believers, then giving should be a joyous experience expressing our sense of honor to give all that we can to see His kingdom grow. We are firm believers that our giving (referred to as a tithe) should go to the local church in which we involve ourselves. So, give generously and with joy, since we have kingdom work to do!
