Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Thank you for your interest in the Quad Cities Association of Evangelicals. The QCAE has had a long history with one vision in mind. That is to make a gathering place for Christian leaders for fellowship, prayer, and worship to advance the kingdom of God.

As it says in Romans 12: 4-5, "Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others." We are an association that has come together under the realization that we can accomplish far more together for the kingdom than we could ever do alone! We all have different gifts, talents, and functions, but together we form one body, and together we can achieve great things. This is an exciting time in our city, and we can be a major influence, not only here in our community, but wherever the Spirit of God leads us.

We believe that unity is the key for bringing us together. It's time to resolve our differences in whatever keeps us apart and look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, to bring us together.

It is my hope that you will consider joining us as we move in our cities in a mighty way in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. As I said before, we can accomplish far more together than we could ever do alone!

In Christ,

Pastor Steve Stephens, QCAE President
