About The Founder
The Mission Statement of Kenneth Hammonds
My individual genetic construction, personality, history, and ministry uniquely set me apart from the other 7 billion people in this world. I am SURE that I must also have a Distinctive Mission.
This Mission I’ve succinctly set in lyrical prose,
as to its catapulting effect only God really knows.
I cannot change the world, but I can make a difference.
I cannot stop a war, but I can save a life.
I cannot rid the world of ignorance, but I can teach a student.
I cannot stop the divorce rate, but I can love my wife.
I cannot stop sin, but I can live holy.
I cannot do everything, but I can do something.
I cannot be God, but I can seek His power and wisdom.
AND I cannot sway the masses, but I can impact the one.
May God bless me and empower me to fulfill my HIS Mission.
