PAThS Projects

Help Support the Seminary

PAThS is the Africa Assemblies of God Alliance doctoral-level training initiative for all of the AG national churches on the continent of Africa. Students from 28 nations have been shaped at PAThS, and many of our graduates serve in executive leadership or lead the discipleship programs for their entire national church. PAThS makes disciples at the highest level for the deepest impact. By giving to PAThS, you are giving to the most influential AG training program on the continent and supporting our desire to keep student prices as low as possible – to open the door to students who have the desire and capacity to study at PAThS but may lack the financial resources to do so. And, you enable us to build bridges to the future through student-centered training development. Thank you!
