Who We Are

Who We Are

ACDI is a branch of New Harvest Missions International based in Togo. It is a registered Christian non-governmental organization working in Togo West Africa. ACDI serves the poor through faith-based, holistic community development. We nurture personal and community transformation, economic and social development as we strive to alleviate extreme physical and spiritual poverty in Togo, West Africa and beyond.

By providing micro-credit, communities and people are enabled to develop small businesses to support their families, place their children in school and improve family health.

Our Mission

Distinctiveness of ACDI

West African National Leadership. All our staff, workers and leaders are West African nationals with a burning passion to take the gospel to their own communities and peoples.  ACDI believes that missionary work should not be done only by Western believers and churches. We seek to see West Africa church leaders take responsibility for their own gospel challenges as they pray and work to establish viable and sustainable churches in their various communities.

Our Values and Principles

God-centered. We seek as our ultimate mission to exalt the supremacy of God in all things among all West African nations for the joy of all peoples and the honor and glory of His name.

Kingdom-minded. God's ultimate purpose is the restoration of His entire cosmos and the creation of a new heavens and new earth. Our ultimate goal is not merely to plant churches and raise up worshipers among all nations, but also to bring about the spiritual and cultural transformation of all nations, thereby making God’s invisible kingdom visible in every sphere of life.

Church-focused. We believe God has ordained that His kingdom come on earth through His visible Church. Our ministry focus is therefore the establishment and strengthening of indigenous, healthy, growing and reproducing churches. Ultimately West Africa will become a sending and church-planting force in other nations in other parts of the world.
