Altar Call Ministry | Know Him Personally

Our Vision

To know Him personally.

Not at a distance. Not second-hand. Our vision is for every member of the body of Christ to know God the way Moses knew Him: face to face, as a friend.

"God has given us His Spirit, that we may know the things freely given to us by God."1 Corinthians 2:11–12 AMP

Our Mission

A personal relationship.

To teach individuals to have a personal relationship with their Lord and Saviour, rooted and grounded in love and filled with all the fullness of God.

"So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through your faith… filled up throughout your being to all the fullness of God."Ephesians 3:17–19 AMP

What We Do

Three things, done deeply.

Altar Call gathers in small home cell groups · intimate fellowship · upper rooms · where the Spirit is first and there is no red tape.

Raise an altar

Learning to set up an environment, in your home and in your heart, where you encounter the Lord by His grace.

Isaiah 6:6–8

The fear of the Lord

Growing in understanding and insight into the fear of the Lord, the place where God reveals His covenant and its deep, inner meaning.

Psalm 25:14

Pray without ceasing

Living a life of perpetual prayer according to the wisdom of Jesus: rejoicing always, thankful in every situation, never quenching the Spirit.

1 Thessalonians 5:16–19

Statement of Faith

What we believe

One God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ is the Son of God, fully God and fully man, who died for our sins, rose bodily on the third day and ascended to heaven.
The Holy Spirit indwells all believers, empowering them for godly living and ministry.
The Bible is the inspired, infallible and authoritative Word of God, sufficient for all matters of faith and life.
Salvation is a gift of God's grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
The Church is the body of Christ, called to worship God, proclaim the gospel and disciple believers.
The practice of prayer, worship and reverent living, growing in the fear of the Lord.
Obedience to God's Word: holiness, love and service as evidence of a transformed life.
Every believer is called to God's mission through discipleship, service and sharing the good news.
The personal return of the Lord Jesus Christ, the resurrection of the dead, and the life everlasting.

Who It's For

Believed for years,
but never met Him?

Many of us grew up around faith, with the church, the songs and the stories, yet never had a personal encounter with the living God. Altar Call exists for you. There is a seat in the tent with your name on it.

The Ministers

Buchard & Ruth

Buchard didn't meet God in a church building. He met Him in his own apartment, in an encounter with the Lord that turned a believer into a servant. The years since have been an apprenticeship in God's house: youth pastor at Devine Healing Church, serving at Remnant Christian Network and Grace International Christian Centre, and ministering at Jubalee Christian Church London. Altar Call is the fruit of all of it: the conviction that what happened in that apartment can happen in yours.

Ruth is a leader with a passion for seeing women walk in the same testimony of marriage God wrote for her. She carries that calling through Ladies in Waiting, the ministry she leads, and through every season of Altar Call, where she and Buchard have served hand in hand, learning together in God's house.
