The Abiding Word Ministries believes in the development and growth of the Church through the formation of groups through the cell system.

 

The foundation of these cell groups is based on the Twelve Tribes of Israel -

​

REUBEN,

SIMEON,

LEVI,

JUDAH,

DAN,

NAPHTALI,

GAD,

ASHER,

ISSACHAR,

ZEBULUN,

JOSEPH,

BENJAMIN.

 

Each group is represented by the twelve months of the year, with the eldest tribe represented by January and the youngest tribe represented by December.

 

Members of the Ministry are placed into the groups by their birthdays, using their months.
