AME Church Growth is a place where people can meet Jesus,  engage in life-giving community, and everyone is welcome. We believe in creating a space where people can have authentic encounters with Christ, discover their gifts and use them for God's glory.

The Believe & Belong Campaign calls every local church to recommit itself to radical hospitality, meaningful connection, and intentional inclusion—so that no one remains on the margins.

Supporting the Believe & Belong Campaign, a manual is now available for purchase for $10. This manual is a practical, ministry-ready resource designed to help churches:
• Implement the Believe & Belong vision locally
• Strengthen evangelism and discipleship efforts
• Create pathways for new members to connect and grow
• Reinforce the AME Church’s identity, mission, and witness
