WHAT WE DO

AE International works closely with a number of AE National Teams to facilitate pastor training, and to continue to spread the Gospel in the North of Africa. Projects and events have included:

• Leadership breakfasts or dinners designed to direct political, business and religious figureheads to lead according to the model of Jesus Christ
• Mobilising students, churches and church leaders to ‘Go North’ and be equipped for missions in the North of Africa
• Training North African pastors in South and East African countries like Kenya and South Africa with the skills to better lead their congregations in the North
• Create partnerships and support networks between Christians in different ethnic and religious regions of Africa
