WORK PROCESSES
The Christus Coalition draws heavily from the existing COS Volunteer Activists residing within the
Texas HDs as well as from the COS Prayer Warriors who have already been organized within the
State. As with all Coalitions in Texas, a key purpose is to serve as a draw for new people who may
currently be Volunteer Interests whom we want to convert to Volunteer Activists.
The Christus Coalition derives its mission from Holy Scripture and, thus, may initially attract those
who find the political missions of COS to ring hollow against the larger issue of eternal salvation.
This Coalition is intended to address this greater issue and, as such, the Coalition Coordinators will
be asked to appeal to the “better angels of our nature” when attempting to achieve their group
objectives.
The mission to develop a network of churches, ministries, COS Volunteer Activists and COS leaders
will start in Texas and necessarily move Nationally. This is not an option. It cannot be confined to
Texas because this Coalition is addressing the soul of the Nation, and if effective, can alter the
spiritual direction of America.
The Ministry Advisory Board will play a critical role in advancing the issues of the Coalition, reviewing
the work products of the Coalition Teams, ensuring the mission of the Coalition remains focused and
unwavering, and expanding its reach throughout Texas.
