Part 11. Activities and Operational Information

Ministry Narrative

The ministry was organized to provide and to attempt to fulfill the vast void of quality leadership and training to the Christian church in the continent of Africa, with special emphasis on theological training, mentoring youths, community education, health care and pastoral leadership. ACM will partner with other local training organizations and local churches to fulfill the biblical mandate to reach the world for Jesus Christ. The African Church is growing very rapidly, and there is a tremendous need for trained and better equipped Christian leaders to lead the church in the 21 first century.

The ministry will for all practical purposes be an outstanding source of encouragement and training for the Christian youth in Africa. The ministry primarily plans to focus on three areas of concern, the lack of trained Christian leadership, lack of basic community health needs and to prepare other Christian leaders for missionary endeavors. The primary goal of ACM will be to strengthen and empower the African church by equipping the youth, women and Church leaders with skills for service.

Analysis of Need

ACM Inc., has discovered that most children finish Primary and High schools without career guidance and the motivation to help them pursue their dreams. Since most women in Africa are disadvantaged educationally, they need some basic skills and knowledge to help them cope with the challenges of widowhood and raising families. In the area of Church ministry, the U.S. Center for World Mission estimates that 86% of pastors and church leaders in rural Africa have no formal theological or pastoral training. ACM seeks to equip pastors through seminars, with the tools necessary for effective discipleship and mentorship.

Simply establishing a church without making provision for its health shackles the life of the congregation. Church growth without making provision for church health through trained pastoral leaders is biblically inadequate and ineffective. ACM plans for healthy church growth through supplying essential ministry training to their untrained pastors. The organization will attempt to provide this leadership and training in the following ways:

Activity #1: Leadership Development (30%).

ACM will coordinate the development of Christian leaders in the local church. The development will take place by the sponsoring of pastors/leaders conferences. In these conferences, pastors and leaders will be taught godly principles of Christian leadership in ministry. The fundamental purpose of this activity is to make sure that pastors are equipped with the necessary skills to lead their churches effectively.

ACM will serve as a training and resource center to develop Christian leaders among the Christian leadership of the African churches. A variety of activities will be done to accomplish the goal. The majority of the conferences will be targeted to pastors, youth leaders, women leaders and children's ministry leaders.

Other activities that will accomplish the goal will include-.

• Additional leadership conferences
• Personal development seminars
• Small group counseling models
• Church consulting
• Counsel on various aspects of spiritual leadership
• Research of churches and the geographic locations will be performed to analyze the areas of need to be addressed
• Strategy development and counsel for pastors, local churches and denominational and youth leaders.
• Develop printed material to strengthen the ministries of pastors.
Trained pastors and volunteer experts in the area of leadership and organizational development will perform these activities.

Activity # 2: Discipleship/ Evangelism Training (40%)

ACM seeks to build godly servant-leaders with the character, vision, and skill to build other leaders, which fulfills the biblical model of true discipleship. (2 Timothy 2:2). The goal of this activity is to provide a Christ-centered comprehensive and practical understanding of our identification with Jesus, the Christ. We seek to equip mentors in the application of this identification in one's life and the mentee, and provide an environment that enhances personal experience of this truth. The training program includes seminars, teaching and training with a staff sponsor.
ACM will evangelize by embarking on personal evangelism and other soul-winning activities (method of soul winning may not be given to public in some cases for security reasons). Evangelization of people groups that have not heard the word of God will be our main evangelism focus in some areas of Africa. ACM will establish biblical models of discipleship through training, these activities will include, but not limited to:

• Bible Teaching,
• Establishing resource center (library) for pastors
• Adult literacy
• Youth Recreational activities
• Computer training
• E-mail services
• Crisis Pregnancy ministry

Trained pastors and professions in theological and relevant fields will perform these activities.

Activity #3: Health Development (30%)

The primary task of this portion will be providing information as to the low level of adequate health care in the world's underdeveloped countries and the distribution of medical supplies to those countries. ACM's goal is to provide assistance to those without access to healthcare, particularly providing care for HIV/AIDS carriers and patients. This will be accomplished by taking medical specialists to those in need as an expression of Christian discipleship and humanitarian concern. The goal of this activity is to improve the access to health care for the needy.
These activities will include but not limited to:

• Transporting medical supplies to needed areas
• Rotating doctors on two -three week trips to provide health care to rural areas with no means of medical attention.
• HIV/AIDS Awareness campaigns
• Assist with efforts to construct hospitals in the rural areas of Africa
• Distribute other humanitarian aid
• Provide community development and children's ministry programs.

Trained medical volunteers of the organization will perform these activities.

Activity #4: Education

The organization plans to establish relationships with Churches, Educational institutions and individuals to help the organization offer quality education to children in Primary and High schools. Volunteer teachers will provide tutorial sessions for pupils and students. The organization will enlist the services of professional teachers in achieving this goal.
