Mission Momentum Africa

With over 700 million Christians, Africa accounts for nearly one in four believers worldwide. By 2060, that number is projected to rise to more than 1.3 billion, positioning Africa as the global epicenter of the Christian faith. Yet despite this exponential growth, the African Church remains underrepresented in global missions. Mission Momentum Africa exists to change that.

Launched from Nairobi, Kenya, Mission Momentum Africa is an initiative designed to awaken, equip, and mobilize the African Church for global mission. Our vision is to see a new generation of African believers raised up to plant churches, reach unreached peoples, and take part in the global evangelization effort. We seek to transform churches from being inward-focused to becoming vibrant, outward-sending communities.

In our first year (May 2025–May 2026), we will engage in a series of strategic events and initiatives:

• Mission Momentum Conference: A three-day catalytic gathering in Nairobi, bringing together pastors and youth leaders from across Kenya and beyond. This event will cast vision, offer training, and invite churches into a missional network.

• Vision Trip to an Unreached Area: A 7-day prayer and fasting journey to Northeastern Kenya. This trip will help leaders encounter the realities of unreached communities and discern steps for engagement and church planting.

• Monthly Network Engagements: Ongoing Zoom calls and in-person meetups to foster community, accountability, prayer, and shared mission among participating churches.

• Follow-Up Vision Trip: A return to Northeastern Kenya to build on relationships, assess progress, and identify a new target region for the coming cycle.

Each year, Mission Momentum Africa will expand into new regions, nurturing a continent-wide network. Our goal is to see African churches planting churches, sending missionaries, and discipling young leaders with a global vision.

Avant is seeking to raise $19,600 to partner with the African church in this strategic initiative for the advancement of the gospel.
