Abundant Life Center is a Christian community-based ministry called to reach out to who person holistically using the Jesus Threefold ministry; FEED, TEACH AND HEAL. We believe in the power of Gospel and that everyone person has God given potential, you cannot develop until all the three aspects are reached and touched; spiritual, physical and emotional.
Our portfolio of work is based on the values of Christian motivation and obligation towards building the ability of individuals and communities to draw on a range of assets to effect change, particularly in rural communities where livelihoods depend entirely on the sustainable use of natural resources. Our work calls upon the church to rise up the change and meet the daily needs that communities are faced with today. Using the bottom-up approach towards development, the ministry emphasizes the need for the community to be the only recognizable tool as a change agent.
