AFRIQUE<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Africa is a vast continent of rich cultural diversity, hundreds of languages and peoples, and a dynamic, rising church. From sub-Saharan villages to metropolitan hubs, the gospel is advancing in many contexts and the need remains great. The Advance Movement is passionate about planting and strengthening churches across Africa, equipping local leaders, fostering partnership across borders and contributing to a multiplying movement of healthy congregations on the continent.<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n
A VISION FOR AFRICA<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Our vision in Africa is to see vibrant, Gospel-centred, disciple-making churches established and strengthened in every nation, city, town and rural community across the continent. We believe that church planting and then strengthening existing congregations is the best form of evangelism and mission.<\/p>\n

While the contexts are many and varied\u2014from highly urbanised centres to remote rural villages\u2014the call is the same: to see the light of the gospel shine in places of darkness, to equip local leaders, to partner in mission, and to release the church into its full potential across Africa.<\/p>\n

AFRICA LEADERSHIP\t<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Africa team is led by Gareth Bowley, who, together with the rest of the Africa team, serves to activate and strengthen churches on our continent and to coordinate with the Global Team of the Advance Movement. Our continental leadership connects with national church leaders, cross-network partners, and local elders to provide encouragement, oversight, training and resource sharing.<\/p>\n

We believe in leadership rooted in local context, in giftedness over geography, and in mutual submission and partnership. As such, our regional leadership team in Africa includes indigenous elders and missional leaders who are deeply committed to the church in Africa and the global family of churches.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
