We invite you to join WIP (Worship, Intercession & Prophecy) to experience how God knits

anointings together so that we can become one as the Body of Christ.

Eph 4:16 (AMP) For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts),

closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied,

when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions],

grows to full maturity, building itself up in love.

The goal of the initiative is to bring the worship, intercession,

prophetic and apostolic streams together. Too often conferences and events focus on

only one of these aspects.

We believe that the Apostolic, Prophetic, Intercession & Worship is the spear

point in the church, pioneering the new so that the rest of the Body of Christ can follow.

That is why we felt led to start with the Worshippers, Intercessors, Prophets and Apostles.

The WIP Board consists of 4 members representing the 4 different aspects of WIP Apostolic equally:

Crocus Ministries
The mission of Crocus Ministries is to provide a safe haven for prophets and prophetic people to learn,

train and fellowship. Despite the natural inclination of the prophets to be alone, they have a genuine

need to function within relationships. This prevents the prophets from becoming strange and only

relying on their own advice, counsel and revelation.

The furtherance of the prophetic ministry is the main mission of Crocus Ministries. In order to do this

Crocus provides teaching and training schools. Seminars and gatherings are part of this too. Crocus

aims to also provide facilities for this training in order to have a base from which the prophetic can be

launched. Training ministries can grow and be released and then have somewhere to come back to

for further teaching and fellowship. The Academy of Prophecy plays a large role in this training.
