African Church Planting Network is a networked family of churches and ministries where relationship, support, accountability and resourcing occur. We are a family of congregations and ministries voluntarily united for the purpose of fulfilling the apostolic mandate of the Church. Together we are a team!

To fulfill the mandate of the Holy Spirit in these last days requires equipping, cooperation and passion! To this end many local churches throughout the world are recognizing a need for the full restoration of all the Ephesians 4:11-16 ascension gifts; apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers.

The early church operated under a spiritual government where these ascension gift ministries were in full operation, working as a team equipping and releasing saints to the work of the ministry. It is essential that this form of apostolic order be rstored in the Church.

Christians are becoming aware that there are apostolic men and women who function as spiritual parents. God wants his people cared for and mentored by these apostolic parents. ### God is also interested in local churches building according to New Testament patterns as they relate to apostolic spheres of authority and ministry. These spheres of ministry are in part apostolic networks where churches and ministries cooperate together for greater results! ### Formal apostolic networks are one of a new wineskin that God is using in Christianity today to expedite and accelerate His will on the earth!
