Our Beliefs
Christian Fellowship Ministries (CFM)
"Go ye unto all the world and preach to gospel to all nations..."
In 1970, Pastor Wayman Mitchell went to the small town of Prescott, Arizona. From here, a spiritual fire was launched that is spanning the globe. Since that time, over four-thousand churches have been planted with crusades and conferences touching tens of thousands every year.
Christian Fellowship Ministries is a product of that vision and we are working to see it expand in the short time that remains before Jesus returns. The Potter’s House Spring Branch, as well as other local churches are a part of this vision. Bonding together, for strength and unity to reach our cities, states and countries for Jesus. Yahweh has given us a vision for the day we live in. Our message is simple, yet it is the cornerstone of all truth. JESUS CHRIST is the ONLY hope for mans’ salvation. In a world full of empty dreams and false promises, there is a truth which grows stronger every day... JESUS CHRIST, THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD.
Our Local Church
Pastor Rene Galeas
–
Potter’s House Spring Branch is a church with a rich history of faith, sacrifice, and lasting impact. Founded in 2003, the church began when Mark Mendoza and his family answered the call to pioneer a work in Houston, Texas. Not long after, Pastor Larry Vass and his family stepped in to lead the congregation, and the church experienced a powerful revival marked by a wave of teenagers giving their lives to Christ.
Over the years, the Houston church has become a launching ground for ministry, raising up preachers who are now pastoring across the United States and overseas. Today, under the leadership of Rene Galeas and his family, the church continues to see the hand of God at work. With a heart for outreach and discipleship, Potter’s House Spring Branch has been part of planting multiple churches, including works in states like Iowa and Kentucky, continuing its legacy of spreading the gospel and investing in lives..
Evangelism
The Gospel taken outside the four walls is the absolute foundation of our church, in obedience to the word of God (Mark 16:15). Jesus said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." We emphasize personal evangelism and a large variety of outreaches to share the Gospel.
Conversion
We witness, testify and preach for a decision. The Gospel has the power to save and transform lives. 1 Peter 1:23: "having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever". The bulk of our congregation consists of people converted here by the Power of God.
Discipleship
God intends for calling to Him, and for Him, to be accomplished through being trained and equipped within the setting of a local church. Therefore, the highest calling of a Pastor and congregation is to obey God’s command in Matthew 28:19-20: Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit; teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.
The Local Church
God has placed everything necessary to accomplish His will in the setting of the local church. Ephesians 1:22-23 …the church, which is his body, is the fullness of him who fills everything in every way. God’s will is accomplished in us and through us as we connect and commit ourselves to a local church.
Church Planting
The result of disciples being raised up is that they will be released into the harvest field. In Matthew 9:37-38, Jesus said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." We send couples to plant brand new congregations, with the aim of reproducing our vision in a new area.
World Evangelism
From the earliest Bible record, God’s vision is worldwide testimony and impact. The gospel message and the vision God has revealed to us is not simply American, but God-inspired; so therefore it works, and is relevant in every nation and culture of the world. The bible says in Mark 16:15 "all the world/every person" and in Matthew 28:19, "all the nations". Our job as believers, and as the local church is to pray, train, invest, send and support workers to go into all the world!
