Africa Inter-Mennonite Mission

Africa Inter-Mennonite Mission is an evangelical Anabaptist “family gathering” in which African, North American and European members are working together to become an answer to Jesus’ prayer: “Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”.

Organized as the Congo Inland Mission in 1912, AIMM currently works to plant and nurture churches, and encourage churches in mission, through authentic international mission partnerships in Burkina Faso, DR Congo, Botswana, and South Africa as well as North America.

To accomplish God’s mission, we are committed to learning and working together in ways that promote fraternal relationships and mutual respect between equals, where each partner’s gifts and talents are recognized, and where each partner gives and receives.

FAITH STATEMENT

We believe the Bible to be the Word of God and the final authority for every Christian.

We believe that Christian mission originates with God, who is fully revealed in Jesus.

Christian life is possible only through a vital, personal relationship with Jesus Christ empowered by the Holy Spirit and nurtured by the local church.

We identify with an Anabaptist understanding of scripture, which includes believer’s baptism, local congregational fellowship, the renunciation of violence, and sharing Christ’s love through evangelism, peacemaking and meeting human need.
