Partner Through Giving

African Enterprise is a faith-based ministry that relies upon the support of people around the world. The income provided through your support pays for the salaries and the ministry work of our teams in Africa. We have no specific source of income other than the goodwill and faithful giving of people like you. As the organisation commenced over 50 years ago it is vital that new generations of supporters like you are motivated and willing to sign up to support this God-ordained ministry.

A LEGACY OF HOPE: WILLS & BEQUESTS

AN INVESTMENT IN ETERNITY

“To evangelise the cities of Africa through word and deed in partnership with the Church.”

When you include African Enterprise in your will, you are investing in future African Christians, for generations to come.  Every bequest, big or small, is a reminder of the care of Christians for their brothers and sisters all over the world, and a desire to see the whole world come to know Jesus Christ Lord and Saviour. You help AE fulfill our Mission – what joy you will bring!

WHY HAS AE AUSTRALIA CHAIRMAN, JEFF COLLETT, DECIDED TO INCLUDE AE IN HIS WILL?

“I’m passionate about evangelism and discipleship, and I know our stratified evangelism work helps achieve this. There’s an urgency to share the Gospel in Africa. If I’m not contributing, there are people not hearing of God’s love and not being saved. I know the value of the work that African Enterprise does – it’s a great investment in the kingdom. God has provided me a place in His kingdom and everything I have is His. It’s about me using what He’s given me to do His work.”

WHAT IMPACT DO YOU EXPECT YOUR BEQUEST TO HAVE?

“I have absolute confidence that AE will use my bequest wisely to proclaim the Gospel to those who have not heard, and to disciple those who accept Christ as their personal Saviour.”

WHY WOULD YOU ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO INCLUDE AE IN THEIR WILL?

“The work of evangelism in Africa is critically important in the next couple of decades. There’s been such a huge response by the African people to the Gospel, and African revival is desperately in need of support. While we can give on a monthly/annual basis now, we have to lock in that last opportunity to contribute to this vital ministry.”

You can choose to direct your bequest toward a specific area like those listed below, or give a general bequest towards the most pressing needs of AE.

• Evangelism
• Pastor training
• Foxfires
• Peace and reconciliation
• Community development
• Student education

Please read the booklet below for more details.
