The mission of Asian American Christian Fellowship (AACF) is to reach into the university and collegiate community, primarily to those who are Asian Pacific Americans, with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.
We are committed to making disciples by educating and equipping students in biblical foundations, Christian disciplines, and the development of spiritual gifts in order to prepare them for witness and service on the campus, in the local church, in the marketplace, and in world missions.
College students who come through the ministry of AACF are educated and equipped for witness and service to wherever God leads them. Our aim is to give them knowledge and experience to be salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16) to the communities where God has placed them and beyond. We do this by giving students opportunities to lead and serve. We deeply value student leadership and their initiative to creatively contextualize ministry on their campus. We give them a framework for campus ministry and they are encouraged to make it their own.
Our ministry specializes in reaching Asian Americans on the college campus. Our fellowships are open to all. You don’t have to be Asian, American, or Christian to join our fellowship. We extend a humble invitation to any student who is searching for forgiveness and the grace of Jesus Christ.
The Asian American Christian Fellowship (AACF) as of division of JEMS, believes:
That the Bible is God’s Word, written by men divinely and uniquely inspired by the Holy Spirit, and that it is the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
In One God, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
In Jesus Christ, the world’s only Savior; in His pre-existence, virgin birth, sinless life, vicarious death, burial, bodily resurrection, and personal return.
In the Holy Spirit as a Person, indwelling and empowering the believer, convicting the unsaved, and presenting the claims of Christ.
That sinful man is lost and can be redeemed only by the death and shed blood of Christ upon the cross through the regeneration of the Holy Spirit.
In the resurrection of the dead, the believer to life everlasting and the unbeliever to eternal condemnation.
That the Church, the Body of Christ, is comprised of all who have accepted the redemption provided by Christ.
JEMS is the parent organization behind AACF. The Japanese Evangelical Missionary Society (JEMS) began its campus work in the Fall of 1973 at Cal State Los Angeles. It was called the JEMS Campus Bible Study. By 1977, the name Asian American Christian Fellowship came into being for the group at Cal State Long Beach. From a small beginning, this ministry has grown to involve several thousand students on a number of strategic campuses.
