World Assemblies Fellowship International (W.A.F.I.) is comprised of Pastors and churches who are dedicated to enhancing the development of the Church in the Spirit of Excellence; as well as reuniting families under God. W.A.F.I. is committed to helping people, feeding the hungry and establishing powerful partnerships throughout the world. Our goal is to “Bring the Word to the World” through outreach programs, crusades, conferences and international evangelism.
The purpose of W.A.F.I. is to provide legal and spiritual recognition to the calling and ministry God has already placed upon an individual and to assist in the fulfillment of that ministry. W.A.F.I. provides a basis of relationship between churches and independent ministries as well as spiritual support, counsel and input as requested or needed.

"Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you."
Read the BibleI believe in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire as a gift from God as promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to all believers in this dispensation, and is received subsequent to the "New Birth." This experience is accompanied by the consequence, sign, result and/or evidence of speaking in "other tongues" as the Holy Spirit Himself utterance.
I believe the Bible teaches that without holiness no man can see the Lord. I believe in the Doctrine of Sanctification as a definite or positional, yet progressive work of grace, commencing at the time of regeneration and continuing on through the believer's life, and walk.
We believe then God is the covenant-making and covenant-keeping God. Through covenant, God binds Himself to His people and His people to Himself. God has extended covenant to us in Jesus Christ This covenant encompasses till His promises, which make available to its the inherited riches belonging to Christ, and His demands, which art to be faithfully met. Entering into God's covenant involves entering into covenant with God's people. The primary demand of the covenant is that the people of the covenant love one another. Loving one another involves learning to serve, admonish, and support in brotherly fashion those to whom one is bound by God's covenant. Practically, this is experienced in relationship with those who are closest at hand.
I believe the Lord's Supper, consisting of the elements - bread and the fruit of the vine - is the “symbol” of expressing our sharing the divine nature, of our Lord Jesus Christ; a memorial of His suffering and death; and a prophecy of His coming; and is enjoined on all believers “till he comes!”
I believe that "Healing" is for the ills of the human body and soul (physical, emotional). Healing is wrought by the power of God through the power of faith and/or by the, laying on of brands. It is provided for in the atonement of Christ, and is the privilege of every member of the church today. Included in the atonement was every member's freedom from strongholds, yokes, bondages, oppression, demons, and vexation of evil spirits.
RESURRECTION OF THE JUST AND THE RETURN OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST | The, angels said, “This same Jesus shall so come in like manner." His coming is imminent. When he comes," ...the dead in Christ shall rise first; then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. "The resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who art alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the imminent and blessed hope of the Church.
The one who physically dies in his sins without Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the Lake of Fire and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel of repenting. The Lake of Fire is literal. The terms “eternal” and "everlasting," used in describing the duration of the punishment of the dammed in the Lake of Fire, came the same thought and meaning of endless existence as used in denoting the duration of joy and ecstasy of saints in the presence of God. There will be a final judgment in which the wicked dead will be raised and judged according to their works. Whosoever is not found written in the "Book of Life," together with the devil and his angels, the beast and the false prophet, will be consigned to everlasting punishment in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
A divinely called and scripturally ordained ministry has been provided by our Lord for the threefold purpose of leading the Church in: (I) Evangelization of the World, (2) Worship of God, (3) Building a body of saints being perfected in the image of His Son, Jesus Christ.
I believe the Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God, the product of holy men of old who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit; the infallible authoritative rule of faith and conduct.
I believe our God is the one true God, the self existent — "I Am" Jehovah God; manifested in three persons (the Trinity) - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, being co-equal. The Son, Jesus Christ is the "Word" manifested in the flesh, the only begotten One, and has existed with the Father from the beginning. The Holy Spirit proceeds forth from both the Father and the Son and are co-eternal and co-equal.
I believe Jesus was born of a virgin, conceived by the Holy Spirit. He was both all man and all God being baptized in the Holy Spirit, and He ministered by the power of the Holy Spirit He was crucified, died, rose, and ascended into Heaven and obtained redemption from man’s sin as He, Himself led a sinless life and is both Lord and Christ, and He is God.
I believe man is a created being, made in the likeness and image of God; but, through Adam's transgression and fall, sin came into the world, and man received a sin nature “All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” as it is written, "There is none righteous, no not one." Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was manifested to destroy the work of the devil and gave His life! and shed His blood to redeem and restore man back to God.
I believe man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. Man’s first step toward salvation is God that worketh repentance. The "New Birth" is necessary to all men; and when fulfilled, produces eternal life. It is through faith toward Jesus Christ, repentance toward God and His grace that eternal life is obtained.
I believe baptism in water is by immersion for the circumcision of heart as a direct commandment of the Lord and is for believers only. This act is the Christian's identification into Christ Jesus; His death, burial, and resurrection for the destruction — rendering inoperative — of the body of sin, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.
"Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who
labour in the word and doctrine."
-1 Timothy 5:17
As we continue to serve the Lord and share His message, let us never forget the incredible ways He has worked through us to touch the lives of so many. We are forever grateful for the opportunity to be instruments of His love and grace in this world.
