Ashford Christian Fellowship

To empower, equip and release God’s people into their full potential, so they may become a light to Ashford and the nations.

The vision of the Ashford Christian Fellowship is to empower, equip and release God’s people into their full potential, so they may become a light to Ashford, Kent and to the nations. We believe in sharing this light with family and friends, with government, schools, hospitals, businesses and wherever opportunities arise.
Jesus said; “I am the light of the world, whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life”. We believe no darkness can extinguish this light and that it provides us with joy and strength, here and now.
Our church is home to over 30 nationalities and we choose to celebrate our diversity and shared faith with joy, music, colour and vibrancy. We are an active church; we enjoy fellowship with God and with each other; good food and good times together. We share a commitment to our country, our town, our community and our members. We are honoured to work with other churches in Ashford meeting physical, emotional and spiritual needs.

Principles we Value

The vision and values of ACF have not been created to be followed, but are a spontaneous expression of the heart of the church. It is the shared vision and values that creates the unity among such a culturally and socially diverse church as ours.
In the spiritual realm, we will seek to encourage people to believe in the God of the impossible, rather than remain in resignation in the face of adversity and living without hope. In the practical sense, we promote through training as well as courses and seminars, the practical application of skills-development for use in the workplace, to enable people to break through. In the area of wealth creation, we will increasingly expand into ministry that empowers ordinary people to reach their God-given potential in the marketplace.

Our Profile and Style

The Ashford Christian Fellowship (ACF) is a Free Church influenced by the Evangelical Alliance. The church outlook would be considered Charismatic, as we are a Bible-believing church that is Holy Spirit led and operating in the gifts of the Spirit. ACF is a Gathered Community rather than a Parish or a territorial church, attracting members from a broader area around Ashford. ACF works closely with other Christian churches of all denominations in the locality and seeks to jointly celebrate that which unites us all in Christian belief.
