The “Not Another Tie” campaign is a deliberate effort to involve local USA churches in partnering with Africa Tabernacle Evangelism and the local African church to erect church buildings across the continent in 2006.
Currently, the African church is in a tremendous growth mode, and the need for congregations to have their own building is growing. There are currently more than 13 million Assemblies of God believers across Africa, and if the current growth rate continues as it currently is, by 2010 there will be more than 30 million believers. With this growth, the need is greater now than ever before. And because a church gains credibility in its community when it has it’s own church building, it often experiences rapid growth . . . thus the need for your help.
We are encouraging churches across the USA to take a special offering on Father’s Day for this special need. The thought is that instead of giving dad another tie as a gift, honor dad, brother, husband, uncle, or pastor by giving an offering on his behalf which will make an eternal difference. A tie will pass away, but the church will live on for eternity! And the father’s legacy will live on as well!
This year we need 1000 USA churches who will commit to partner with us to build 1000 African churches. For an offering of $7500, a tabernacle church can be built for a need congregation in Africa. A church may chose to partner with us to fund all or part of a church building and all help will be greatly appreciated.
If you would like more information, or would like the ministry leader, Bill Moore, to come and share this vision with your church, please e-mail the address listed below.
Make this Father's Day a day to remember by changing a whole community and perhaps a whole nation in Africa. Build a church for a lifetime in a day!
