THE P.E.A.C.E. PLAN
The P.E.A.C.E PLAN is a massive effort to mobilize 1 billion Christ followers around the world into an outreach effort to attack the 5 global, evil giants of our day. They are spiritual emptiness, corrupt leadership, poverty, disease, and illiteracy, all of which affects billions worldwide. In 2008 Lifechurch joined the P.E.A.C.E PLAN and has leveraged its resources and influence, with other churches, in an effort to topple the global giants.
