Affiliated with Ixthus Church Council · Member of Churches Together in England · Charity Registration No. 1169902
Welcome to AFMA
The Acts of Faith Ministerial Association is not a denomination — it is a covenant community. We are an apostolic association of churches and ministries united with a common goal: to advance the Kingdom of God on earth.
Led by President Bishop Abel Kungu Snr., AFMA functions as a family — a network of pastors, prophets, evangelists, teachers, apostles, and ministry leaders who have chosen unity over isolation, accountability over independence, and collective purpose over personal ambition.
Our Vision
To build an international network of ministers, churches, missionaries, and para-church organisations to advance God’s ultimate purpose of dominion on earth.
Our Mission
We believe we are called as an apostolic benchmark to the body of Christ to train, equip, empower, and impart the apostolic and prophetic anointing and spiritual gifts to help fulfil the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Our Beliefs
AFMA is grounded in the historic Nicene Creed, affirming belief in one God — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — one baptism for the forgiveness of sins, and one holy, universal, and apostolic Church.
Our Four Pillars
Commissioning
We ordain, license, and send ministers into the harvest field, equipping them with apostolic authority and spiritual gifts to fulfil their God-given calling.
Covering
Every minister and ministry under AFMA receives apostolic covering and spiritual oversight — a place of safety, guidance, and prayerful support.
Relationship
We are built on genuine fellowship. AFMA fosters intentional relationships between ministers, churches, and ministries across nations.
Accountability
We walk in integrity and mutual accountability. Every member commits to upholding ecclesiastical protocol, sound doctrine, and the ethical standards of the Gospel.

Apostolic Leadership
Bishop Abel Kungu Snr.
President & Apostolic Leader
Bishop Abel Kungu Snr. received God’s apostolic call over 23 years ago during a time of illness, when God spoke to him audibly. Since that encounter, God has authenticated his ministry with mighty signs and wonders.
Bishop Kungu is known for his passion for God, his compassion for people, and his unwavering faith. He is a church planter, teacher, coach, mentor, business adviser, and marriage counsellor — a pastor to pastors and a father to many in the body of Christ.
He carries the five-fold ministry and serves as:
- Apostolic Leader of Acts of Faith Ministries in Bedford and worldwide
- Leader of Acts of Faith Ministerial Association (AFMA)
- President of Abel Kungu Ministries International
Bishop Kungu is married to Revd. Success Kungu, and together they have two children: Abel Kungu Jnr. and Elisabeth Kungu.
