Our Foundation: Purpose and Principles

Who We Are

The African Pastors Association is a formal body uniting African church pastors and leaders residing and ministering in Israel. We are committed to fostering a supportive community, providing essential resources, and strengthening ties with churches throughout Africa and the World.

Our Mission

To unite pastors across Israel in a covenant of faith, fostering spiritual growth, integrity, and biblical truth; to equip and empower leaders for effective ministry; to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ with boldness and compassion; and to serve as a prophetic and moral voice that brings hope, healing, and transformation to the nation of Israel and beyond.

Our Vision

To raise a unified, Spirit-led community of pastors in Israel, passionately committed to advancing the Kingdom of God through holiness, truth, and love; equipping leaders to shepherd with integrity and power; fostering unity across all denominations and cultures; and serving as a prophetic voice that brings light, healing, and transformation to the nation and beyond.

We envision a generation of pastors walking in divine authority, demonstrating Christ’s character, strengthening the Body of Christ, and impacting Israel with the gospel—until every community experiences revival, restoration, and the manifest presence of God.
