COPIC’s 3Cs in Biblical approach to Christian Social Justice

COPIC is rooted in the social justice gospel, which features in the teachings of John the Baptist and also through the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. We believe that the gospel through words and deeds has the capacity to transform lives morally, spiritually and physically so long as we focus on the 3Cs.

  • The Great Commission (preach, teach and spread the good news about Jesus Christ).
  • The Greatest Commandment (loving God and loving one another).
  • The Great Commitment (to be salt and light in the world through good deeds). 

 

COPIC’s Social Justice Model

  • Bearing one another’s burden and sharing with those in need.
  • Building and developing impoverished communities.
  • Promoting early intervention and long term self- sustainability.
  • Empowering children by making education accessible and affordable.

 

COPIC’s Global Village Consciousness

  • Breaking down barriers of poverty and injustice and building up bridges of opportunities and possibilities across cultures, countries and communities.
  • Finding common grounds through our common humanity.
  • Motivated by the spirit of collective conscience and compassionate giving.
