To represent Jesus Christ together
through cooperation in our community
WHO WE ARE
The Ministerial Co-op (or Co-op for short) exists for communities in and around Rantoul. Co-op is open to churches and organizations and was previously known as GRMA. We chose the name “Co-op” not only because it stands for cooperation, but also as an acronym that stands for “COoperation Of Pastors”. We meet monthly to strengthen our common bond in faith and to pray for one another. Our desire is to show the world that we are “His disciples, by how we love one another.”
THE GOSPEL
The gospel is the message that God will give us pardon from our sins and eternal life with Him in heaven, if we will turn away from our sins and turn to Him, accepting His Son, Jesus Christ, as our Savior and Lord. “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). This simple message of the gospel, which means ‘good news’, is for all of the world.
