ADVANCE is primarily a church planting ministry. We come along side of missionaries for accountability purposes to support financially their CALLED, TRAINED, APPROVED, SENT by the LOCAL CHURCH men to start churches in some remote part of the world to preach the gospel and reach their countrymen for Christ.
As a result, this list of beliefs are not comprehensive of what we believe but a short list of important basic beliefs. ADVANCE is not a church but a ministry to help missionaries through the national to plant churches around the world and fulfill the Great Commission.
We believe “THE LOCAL CHURCH IS GODS VEHICLE FOR WORLD EVANGELISM.” ADVANCE is here to help and assist in this great endeavor.
Over the last eight years we have had the privilege to support financially 1280 new church start ups on five continents and in twenty four different countries.
