| Our Vision and Mission |
Our vision is to bring Christians from around the world together to substantially improve the life and living standards of the poor and disenfranchised. We seek to achieve this through the worldwide deployment of UCR facilities that will expand the capabilities, value and power of all Christian ministries. UCR resources will be used to facilitate the free or low-cost exchange of goods, services, and information between Christians worldwide. Our members will be able to request and receive help from each other using our powerful computing systems and facilities.
The United Christian Registry will put in place the technology (computer hardware, software, networking and applications), the support infrastructure, and the resources (facilities, courseware, and supplies) to enable Christian ministries to more effectively grow and prosper.
These UCR facilities will enable Christian ministries and people to network more effectively. They will enable Christians to unite around a common platform in support of religious freedoms and civil rights. UCR will support Christian outreach missions and ministries around the world and will provide religious and practical training. The UCR program will emphasize the practical aspects of transferring all forms of life improving skills.
For clarification, the following paragraphs provide additional information on UCR capabilities. |
|
- Enable Christian ministries to grow and prosper. UCR facilities and services will facilitate the growth and development of all Christian churches, ministries and people. UCR will enable people to enter into ministries despite the challenges of geography, life circumstance, or physical limitations. UCR will strengthen ministries by bringing additional people and resources from all Christian nations. UCR will also provide the tools necessary to extend the message of Jesus to a broader audience. It will enable ministries to transfer the practical life and vocational skills that will not only improve their lives but help them to experience the love of Jesus more fully. UCR is designed to free ministries of clerical burdens thus enabling them to spend more time in ministry. UCR is designed to build a strong foundation for Christian nations by teaching youth to become the future leaders of their local communities — creating a foundation that will transform the environment around them for the betterment of their people and the world.
|
|
- Enhance Christian networking and communication capabilities. UCR will put in place the information and communications network technologies necessary to enhance Christian ministries. These technologies will be made available in every part of the world and be available to any person in the world. With these capabilities, Christians will be able to locate help in solving problems, share the message of their ministry with other Christians, find needed resources, and pinpoint the ministries or people they need to support their mission. In addition, this technology will become the backbone of the following initiatives.
|
|
- Raise living standards through free education. Provide the education, training, and ministry necessary to enable the poor and disenfranchised to better care for themselves and their families. These capabilities will be deployed by way of interactive television and will be supplemented with audio visual lessons, interactive dialog with technical experts, automated teaching tools, and hands-on educators and administrators at the local site. Every subject necessary to help the poor and disenfranchised to improve their living standards will be provided. These educational capabilities will be delivered anywhere they are needed. As a result this education and training can be made available to anyone who needs it, through local Christian ministries.
|
|
- Fight for religious freedom, human rights and justice. Provide the tools necessary to enable Christian unity in establishing, extending and maintaining religious freedoms and human rights that should be the privilege of every person.
|
| Values |
UCR is a Christian organization focused on demonstrating the love of God:
- We love God with our whole heart and with our whole soul, with our whole mind and with all of our strength.
- We love our neighbor as ourselves.
- We love one another, just as Jesus loved us.
|
| Values and Beliefs |
In addition, we unite in ministry based on the following core beliefs:
- Jesus is the Son of God and came to earth to communicate and demonstrate the love of the Father for mankind.
- The love of Jesus was manifested in the sacrifice of His life on the cross, which was offered up for the forgiveness of our sins.
- Jesus defeated all evil in His resurrection from the dead.
- Jesus ascended into heaven where He is our advocate with the Father.
- Jesus has sent us His Holy Spirit who enlightens our path and empowers us for spiritual warfare.
- This enlightened path will lead us to the Father who will be faithful in His covenant promises to those who are steadfast to the end.

United Christian Registry seeks to support all Christians and Christian ministries, and in doing so, indirectly supports all humanity.
The ministries supported by UCR will extend the message of Jesus to the world by providing practical skills that will improve and transform their lives. |

To date our progress has been to publish the book, “Possess the Vision” which communicates the message of our ministry. To date books have been distributed five bookstores in the Dallas/ Fort Worth area. |
Our Plans for the Next Three to Six Months
|
- Our initial plans are to put an executive team together to manage the necessary developmental activities. Primary goals will be to modify and ratify the program charter statement and launch a scoping activity to develop and identify the technology architecture, functionality and communication capabilities as well as UCR facilities.
- Deploy the resources to build a prototype version of the UCR technology
- Deploy the resource to design the Universal Christian Registry outreach center. Create the prototype center.
- Deploy and train the ministry teams.
- Build the applications and deploy educational content.
- Replicate the process in other locations.

These will be established in the scoping activity. |
| Our Offering |
These will be established in the scoping activity. |
Joe,
I like your information, but the name of your organization is bad. Christians are not going to want to be registered. Unfortunately, the mark and number of the beast is going to be too closely associated with the use of computer registries!
Good Grace to you,
Peter
Thanks, I had actually been thinking about a name change for a while and even have an updated mission statement, just have not posted it as yet.
You may be interested in the circumstances that led to the formation of the mission statement. The entire story is documented in my book entitled,”Possess the Vision.” You can find it out on Amazon.com where there is a brouse capability as well.
Thanks again,
Papa Joe Gordon

hello,
From Kenya, blessed by your vision and ministry, kind of similar to what I have just started in Nairobi, kenya can we connect, am an engineer in Telecommunications but moving soon to my passion empowering individuals serving God and others. I have particular interest in tabernacle pattern and is core together with reaching out the masterway
Hello Robert and thanks for writing.
It does seem that we have several things in common. I actually have been thinking about putting a series of video’s together on the Tabernacle. I would hope that such videos would help others better understand who Jesus is, and further, help others to understand that there are three types of relationship we can have with God (one for each chamber in the Tabernacle) and what that means for our lives and ministries. Would that be something that would be of value to you and the people you serve in Kenya?
I would love to connect with you. I live in the center of the US in a state called Kansas. So, it would seem that we are on different sides of the globe. What would you suggest in regard to connecting with each other?
I look forward to hearing from you.

I just found this site. Suffice it to say is this has caught my attention. It will take a bit to read through and see what is said. I just keep seeking and seeking and trying to find what Jesus would have for me. I feel an uneasiness about our times and I have 8 children that need Jesus to reveal his love to them. I feel something will happen soon and my children are so in the world. We live on an Indian reserve in New York State and I see many sad people needing the touch of our Saviour encluding myself. Pray for us please as life has been heart breaking.
