Consider Africa, our home. Even throughout continent boasts immense mineral resources that hold popular appeal, Africa still suffers from the ravaging effects of disease, poverty, war, and crippling illiteracy. In a day when conflicting ideas about solving Africa’s problems are all the rage, we believe, though, that the problems of our dying continent belie a deeper problem, albeit a spiritual one. Generally, millions have yet to have a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The liberating three angels’ message, in particular, has not been presented in its true light. A.L.I.V.E Nigeria seeks to nurture, equip and challenge a generation of young professionals and graduates who are determined to hasten Christ second coming. WHO WE ARE
Men, Women, Any graduate or working professional whose heart is burdened for God’s Word and works. ALIVE Nigeria calls for those godly, gutsy, and smart individuals who yearn to represent Christ in their places of work and study, whose minds are preoccupied with presenting the Advent faith anywhere, anytime. A.L.I.V.E Nigeria exists to challenge and to equip with tools for individual missionary work. OUR COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE
We are committed to excellence in our service to God and humanity. What that means in practical terms is that ALIVE programs and its members are to commit to doing ordinary things extraordinarily well. In ALIVE, every little thing matters. Every detail counts.
