Our goal under this initiative is to present God’s love as revealed in Jesus Christ, as we respond creatively to the spiritual, cultural, economic, and social needs of African communities, and to provide structure and information through which the global community can identify areas of social-good ministry in Africa, supporting and equipping pulpit managers for effective ministry in the African context. After planting 145 churches, we can clearly say that this 28-year record of success has been driven by a partnering strategy that, from the outset, recognizes that local teams of clergy and volunteers around the newly planted churches will immediately ensure its success and long-term sustainability. Many of the early churches have grown, and a new generation of churches has been planted. |
