At the heart of the Development Department's mission is the call to grow God's kingdom through building Biblically centered relationships with our partners and churches. We believe that everything belongs to God, and we are but stewards of His resources. Our work is not just about raising funds. We seek to walk alongside each partner, understanding how God is leading them to give, and equipping them to be faithful stewards of what He has entrusted to them. Through these relationships we cultivate a deeper understanding of biblical stewardship, supporting partners in joyfully giving to ministries that reflect God's calling with an eternal impact for His kingdom.  

The Development team works closely with the 10 AFLC Ministry Directors in meeting budget and project needs. This collaboration enables us to align resources with the mission of each ministry, ensuring every dollar given is used effectively for kingdom impact. When we partner together in ministry, we are investing in eternity. Whether it's funding a specific project, addressing an urgent ministry need, or providing ongoing support, your partnership is essential to sustaining and growing kingdom work. 

The Development Department is committed to being a valuable resource for partners as they prayerfully consider their estate planning. We believe Christian estate planning is an opportunity to provide for loved ones while leaving a lasting witness of faith and devotion to Christ. We offer guidance on various giving avenues such as trusts, beneficiary designations, annuities, and qualified charitable distributions. While we do not provide legal advice, we can connect you with trusted financial planners and estate attorneys. The AFLC is committed to proper stewardship of finances entrusted to us. We promise to use your gifts wisely and effectively in Christ's name. The Development team is here to serve you in your estate planning journey.
