Our mission is to establish the church as the center of African communities. Love Africa Mission exists to support our African ministry partners with the evangelism and discipleship of their people. We do this by sharing the love and hope of Jesus through supporting the efforts and programs of our partners.

Statement of Faith
As a Christian mission organization, we believe in The Way, The Truth, and The Life...
God
God always was and will always remain the living sovereign creator and sustainer of all things. He is perfect and eternally exists as three co-equal persons through the Trinity: The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the Son of God. God became man, conceived by virgin birth through the Holy Spirit. He lived a sinless human life and obediently died upon the cross as the ultimate sacrifice for the sins of all mankind. He arose from death three days later, ascending to Heaven, and will return to Earth again someday to pass judgment upon the living and dead thus eternally fulfilling God’s plan to reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is present and intercedes to make mankind aware of their need for Jesus Christ. Upon Salvation, the Holy Spirit indwells every Christian providing instruction into all truth, empowerment through living in accordance with faith, and the imparting of spiritual gifts unto believers.
The Bible
God has chosen to communicate with us. The Bible is God’s living word to us, it is inherently true without error and is the only foundation and supreme source for our beliefs and purpose as it is the inspired word of God written by human authors under the supernatural guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Creation
We are made in the image of God. Mankind is the supreme object of His creation. We are created unalterably as either male or female in both nature and identity. God established marriage as the exclusive lifelong expression of love and commitment between one man and one woman unto God, reserving sexual intimacy within that union only.
The Fall
Sin entered the world through the first man, Adam, who chose to disobey God by eating the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil alongside his wife, Eve. This act of disobedience brought sin, death, and separation between mankind and God. All creation was affected by disease and death from this disobedient act. God sought and corrected Adam and Eve providing consequences for their sinfulness, but also blessed them - promising faithfulness through a Deliverer who would free the people of sin.
Revelation
God is a good and gracious Father. He continually reveals His existence, glory, and power through the displays of His creation. He chose and desired to partake in His creation by sending His son, Jesus in the form of a man on earth and continues to speak to us through His living word, the Bible. God works all things together according to His purpose for our good and His glory.
Salvation
Salvation is available to each person through faith in the Son, Jesus Christ. Never by the good deeds or improvement of oneself can salvation be earned, but only by the profession that Jesus is Lord and the belief that God raised Him from the dead. We believe this profession of faith is always followed by the repentance of sin, baptism, and the pursuit of righteousness.
The Church
The church is the body of Christ consisting of believers as a people from every tribe, tongue, and nation, saved alone and unified by the grace offered through Jesus Christ. The church is to serve as a testimony and reflection of the transformative power of Jesus Christ in and through the community.
On Mission
The Lord Jesus Christ commands all believers to proclaim the Gospel throughout the world and to make disciples of all nations. Obedience to the Great Commission requires total commitment to “Him who loved us and gave Himself for us.” He calls us to walk in a life of self-denying love and in service of good works reflecting His glory and preparations.
Christ's Return
We believe Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. As His word promises us, Jesus Christ will assuredly return to earth making all things new and until His return, we will steadfastly obey and abide in His immense love for us.
