“Mark 9:23 says, ‘… if thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.’

Maybe you are in circumstances and situations that seem to be impossible. I want to encourage you to believe God in that place and to act upon what you believe. According to Jesus in Mark 11:23, the God-Kind of faith is released when we CONFESS God’s Word, BELIEVE God’s Word in our hearts, and ACT on God’s Word (James 2:26).” - Jim Kaseman

Ordination isn’t just for pastors. And ministry isn’t something you were meant to do alone.

Maybe you’re planting a church.
Heading to the mission field.
Ministering to youth or children.
Launching a new ministry.
Or simply stepping into what God has called you to do.

When you’re just starting out, you need more than a credential, you need people who will walk with you.

You need relationships. Encouragement. Accountability. People you can call when you have questions, face challenges, or need wisdom from someone who’s been there before.

That’s what AFCM is about.

We walk alongside ministers through the licensing and ordination process in a way that recognizes where you are now and where God is leading you. And when the process is complete, the relationship doesn’t end. You’ve become part of a family of ministers committed to connecting, encouraging, and strengthening one another for the journey ahead.

You may be starting out in ministry but you don’t have to start out alone.

Become part of the AFCM family.

"Laws change, administrations change, the culture changes and so does “popular opinion.” But we don’t have to! Do you have spiritual disciplines in place that keep you anchored? Is your window still open towards “Jerusalem” – God’s throne of grace? Are you still giving thanks in spite of what’s happening around you? If so, you are positioned to overcome and to keep prospering!" - Mike Sparrow

No matter what you're facing, you are never facing it alone.

God is not distant or uninvolved; He is willing and able to help us in every area of our lives. As we remain connected to Him, He works in us and through us, giving us the strength, wisdom, and grace we need for each day.

Take heart knowing that the Lord is working alongside you. His presence is constant, His promises are sure, and His power is at work in your life.

We just wrapped up a wonderful AFCM regional meeting at Cornerstone Church in Cobbs Creek, Virginia. Pastors Chris and Debbie Morgan, along with their amazing team, were gracious hosts and made everyone feel right at home.

Pastor Chris opened the meeting with an overview of AFCM and a timely reminder of the importance of “being connected.” Regional Director Rick Smith followed with an encouraging exhortation from Psalm 23 on living in the overflow and drinking from the right streams. I had the privilege of sharing from Philippians 3 on “The Upward Call.”

Of course, the gourmet lunch and dessert gave us plenty of reason to linger—and linger we did! The fellowship, camaraderie, and conversations around the table were a wonderful reflection of what happens when we intentionally connect with one another.

As we continue pursuing the practice of “connecting” in this season, our time together at Cornerstone was an enjoyable and meaningful success. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make the gathering so special!

We’ll see you soon—hopefully in California in October!

Agape,
Mike Sparrow

For nearly five decades, the AFCM Family Reunion has been a hallmark event bringing together ministers, leaders, and families for a time of worship, teaching, encouragement, and connection. The Family Reunion has enjoyed a powerful and significant history in Minnesota, serving as a central gathering place for our fellowship.

This year, we have expanded our reach and are excited to invite you to the West Coast Family Gathering on the Central Coast of California, October 19–22, 2026, at Agape Church in San Luis Obispo. This expansion is a wonderful opportunity to welcome new regions into the fold and make our gathering more accessible to our global family.

The registration fee for these meetings helps cover lunches on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, as well as dinner on Tuesday evening. We want to make as much room as possible for fellowship and connection throughout the week!

Act Fast: Morro Bay Cruise!
There are only about 20 spots left for the Wednesday afternoon Morro Bay cruise, so get your registration in today to secure your place on the water!

We are excited to welcome you to the Central Coast and cannot wait to connect with our AFCM family in October!
