The name Tree of Life is no accident. The idea of "tree" is precisely the figure that we try to reflect as a local church. Why a tree? For several reasons:
1) In order not to fall, the tree must be planted on solid ground. We believe that the only solid ground in this changing world is the Word of God, therefore we are committed to having the Bible as the basis of our teachings.
2) The tree extends its roots to take nourishment from the soil and the water it finds in it. Our church is nourished by Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
3) The tree extends its branches and these offer refreshments to the traveler on days of intense heat and protection on nights of furious rains. The walker approaches the tree in search of rest and comfort in his long pilgrimage. Our church seeks to be that place of protection, rest and peace for all those who come and decide to remain under its shadow.
4) The tree bears fruit. We encourage each member to bear fruit. We wish that each one, personally, develops interiorly love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, benignity, faith, meekness, temperance... in the community in which he finds himself, and that use your gifts and talents to serve others.
5) The tree grows from a seed that has been planted in the darkness of the earth, and develops towards the light. We guide each of the attendees towards the light of the Bible, to develop the character of Christ in each of those who wish to follow him.
6) This Tree is not just any tree. It is a Tree of Life. God has given us life and life in abundance, and it is that life-giving and stimulating current that we share in our services, in our R.A.M.A.S. (Outreach, Mercy, Friendship and Service Meetings), in our personal relationships and in our activities as a family in Christ.
7) From a tree branches grow, then leaves and finally fruit. We believe that the BRANCHES that God wants to grow in the Tree of Life Church are the cells in the homes. The leaves are the people who reach them and the fruit is the spiritual and numerical growth that is experienced through them. For this reason the backbone of the church is the cell structure
8) The tree does not grow excessively, but its natural principle is to multiply in other trees of the same species. In the same way, our goal is to reproduce ourselves in other Trees of Life that, being planted in different places and cities, come to fulfill the Word that God gave to our Kosacki pastors:
“...your descendants will inherit nations and inhabit the desolate cities...” (Isaiah 54)
