PURPOSE

To lift up Jesus in celebration of the 2000th anniversary of his public ministry, death, and resurrection (John 12:32);
To be a visible demonstration of the unity in Spirit of all followers of Jesus by encouraging and enabling service, in His name, to a world in need (Matthew 25:34-36).

Ministry Plans

The 2033 Project is an interdenominational coalition of Christians and ministries aligned to this purpose and energized by the rapid approach of the 2000th Anniversary of the Resurrection.  It is a movement among followers of Jesus to increase our effectiveness through greater collaboration and collective impact.
Jesus commands our compassion toward others, directing us to multiple areas of need.  The 2033 Project is promoting efforts by Christians, at both local and global levels, to address such needs.
The Project has identified several areas where collective efforts could be synergistic; accelerating the sharing of hope and relief.  Thus, the Project promotes the formation of collaborating “Cause Collectives” that can bring focus and build unity.   These would include:

• Water
  
• Nutrition
• Sanctity of Life
• Poverty
• Child Welfare
• Families

• Human Trafficking
  
• Refugees
• Healthcare
• Biblical Literacy
• Education
• Prisoner/Legal Aid

PRINCIPLES OF COLLECTIVE IMPACT

The 2033 Project draws upon the wisdom of several tested principles for the operation of these "Cause Collectives" to foster unity and impact: 

• A Common Agenda
• Shared Measures and Goals
• Mutually Reinforcing Activities
• Continuous Communication
• A Backbone of Organizational Support

Operating in unity demands collective Integrity, Humility, and Generosity; all motivated by the love of Jesus Christ.

In the spirit of the first century church community, these initiatives encourage participation and support from all those who call themselves followers of Jesus who can align with the doctrines of the earliest creeds and church councils. We seek to collaborate with all like-minded believers.  Significant doctrinal differences are recognized between denominations, but this will not become a barrier to the celebration of a common heritage and unity tracing to the life and ministry of Jesus.  Though we may be different, we are not divided in Christ.
