About Ambassadors for Christ (AFC)

 

The Ambassadors for Christ (AFC) is committed to reaching Chinese intellectuals for Christ in this generation. AFC is called by God, in cooperation with local churches, to evangelize and disciple Chinese students and professionals in the United States and other parts of the world, to motivate and equip them to impact the culture for the Lord, and to mobilize and channel them into the service of Christ as a vital force for God’s Kingdom.

Developing and supporting the Chinese Christian campus minister network in the U.S. is the core strategy of the AFC in fulfilling its mission. AFC has been deeply involved in the field of Chinese Christian campus ministry in the United States for a long history and has a network of more than 100 Chinese Christian campus ministries.

States where AFC currently has active ministries include California, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Tennessee.

About the Cooperation between Dao Feng and Angela Foundation and Ambassadors for Christ (AFC)

 

In furtherance of AFC’s mission, DaoFeng and Angela Foundation plans to strategically invest in grants, intellectual support, and capacity building, focusing on supporting American campus ministry; AFC wishes to uphold an open attitude to form strategic cooperation with DAF to jointly promote the cause of Chinese Christian campus ministry in the United States.

The two parties have formed a strong desire to cooperate, and the two parties hope to develop a joint force to operate and promote the Chinese Christian campus ministry to serve the God. A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been made and entered into effective on Jun. 03, 2022 by and between Dao Feng and Angela Foundation and AFC.

Dao Feng and Angela Foundation will donate to AFC with a grant of $65,000 per year for at least three consecutive years to support one more full-time administrative staffing cost of the AFC US campus department.

Besides the donation, Dao Feng and Angela Foundation will provide intellectual support to AFC, helping AFC standardize and digitize the workflow of the existing campus ministry, improve efficiency and impact with modern management approaches, and better support the Chinese Christian campus ministry network.

Furthermore, we will provide capacity-building resources for AFC Campus Ministry Department, including but not limited to Bible course scholarships, fundraising training, etc., to help equip Chinese Christian campus ministries.

According to the pain points and needs of the AFC campus ministry development, we will bridge new resources such as the Bedrock Foundation and the Flagstone Foundation to provide additional resources within capacity, including but not limited to cash grants, professional volunteers, Bible Study courses scholarship, and other resources.
