ACF Uganda works in partnership with ACF Missions Inc
ACF Uganda works in partnership with ACF Missions Inc. ACF Missions Inc is the Mission’s agency of the African Christian Fellowship (ACF USA), East Region Chapter. When ACF started over 40 years ago, the desire was for a place of vibrant fellowship for believers who came from Africa to study in the United States, so that we can remain united and strong in faith despite the many challenges we face as immigrants. Over the years, the Lord has blessed us, established us and enlarged our vision.
He has opened our eyes to see the need for every African in the United States to reconnect with Africa, and make a difference in our beloved continent. The challenges facing our homeland have never been more daunting, but rather than moan and blame our leaders, we have chosen to make a difference.
We are responding to God’s call to bring hope to many people groups in Africa that are still unreached. They have never heard of the love that took our savior, Jesus Christ, to the cruel cross and the power that raised Him from the dead. They may never hear unless someone, moved with compassion, crosses cultural barriers and takes the message of salvation to them. We firmly believe that at the root of Africa’s many political, economic and social problems is a cry for spiritual rebirth and revival. Too many of our people remain in the grip of Islam, Animism, and nominal lifeless Christianity. For this reason, corruption, poverty, war and disease defy every human solution and continue to ravage our homeland.
ACF Missions Inc. is focused on making the most impact on the ground. The organization has responded in a strategic and holistic way to the problem and needs in Africa. Some of the goals of the agency are to help improve the spiritual, social and economic conditions in Africa. The organization works to achieve these goals through its core program areas-
- Evangelism and Discipleship
- Child Sponsorship and Education
- Medical Outreach
- Economic Empowerment
- Humanitarian Relief
- Missionary Advocacy
Effective 1998, ACF Missions Inc. started these core programs in few African countries including Nigeria, South Sudan, Benin Republic and Uganda. ACF Chapters in other regions of the United States have also implemented similar programs in other African countries such as Ghana, Congo, Central African Republic, Burundi, Cameroon, and Sierra Leone. Our programs target widows, orphans and children infected and affected by HIV/AIDS and poverty, especially those in child headed homes in remote communities.
