In 1991, a Family Fellowship comprising four Christian families in New Orleans metropolis began monthly meetings in its members' homes. It multiplied in numbers and the ministry of the Word. In 1993, it became a member of the African Christian Fellowship, USA (ACFUSA), and so was born the African Christian Fellowship, New Orleans Chapter, (ACFNOLA). African Christian Fellowship, USA, is the umbrella organization of about 3,000 members in Chapters spread across the United States and overseas with Chapters in the United Kingdom and Africa. It began in 1977 as African Christian Students Fellowship but was later changed to African Christian Fellowship, USA, to accommodate no longer students. An organization that started with some visionary university students grown to produce some of the best Christian professionals and body of Christ in all life works. Besides the young adults, children of the organization's elder members are actively carrying on the legacy passed on to them to be earnest Christians, productive and law-abiding, and shining the light of the glory of God into the communities they live.

Welcome to the African Christian Fellowship (ACF) New Orleans Chapter!

With great joy and gratitude, I extend a heartfelt welcome to you as the new president of our vibrant fellowship. Our chapter is where faith, community, and service converge to create a nurturing and empowering environment for all members and visitors.

**Our Mission and Impact**
Our chapter is strongly committed to making a difference locally and globally. We are proud to have chosen the Niger Republic as our mission country. To date, we have successfully sunk two boreholes and are preparing for another two, providing vital access to clean water for communities in need.

In addition to our mission projects in Niger, we are actively involved in a number of other initiatives and special programs, including:
- Mission Project
- Prison Ministry
- Community Outreach
- University Campus Outreach
- Couples Dinner

**Our Chapter's Unique Aspects**
Our chapter's dynamic ACF Young Adults group is a unique aspect. They play a crucial role in the regular running of our  fellowship, including leading prayer meetings and night vigils, as well as managing our Praise and Worship Team. Their energy and dedication are inspiring, ensuring that our fellowship remains vibrant and welcoming.
 
We also cater to people of all ages, with special care for children, ensuring everyone feels included and valued. After our fellowship meetings, we take the time to socialize and enjoy delicious African cuisine, fostering deeper connections and a sense of community.
 
**A Call to Prayer**
As we embark on this journey together, I invite you to pray for all of our visitors and ACF members worldwide. May God’s grace, love, and protection be with each of us as we grow in faith and service.
 
Thank you for being a part of our ACF New Orleans family. I look forward to seeing the incredible things we will accomplish together.
 
To God be the glory.
 
Sincerely,
Dr. Ijeoma Innocent-Ituah
President, African Christian Fellowship, New Orleans Chapter
