about
Welcome to AFMIM Kettering
Kettering Oasis of Life is your spiritual home, where lives are transformed
Welcome to our spiritual community where lives are transformed by the message of hope found in Jesus Christ.
Part of the Apostolic Faith Mission
The Apostolic Faith Mission International Ministries (UK) is a vibrant, growing Pentecostal church registered in England and Scotland. We are an integral part of the global community of national churches affiliated with the Apostolic Faith Mission International, founded in May 1908 by John G. Lake in Johannesburg, South Africa, after catching the Holy Spirit’s fire in the Azusa Street Revivals of Los Angeles, USA at the dawn of the 20th century. What followed next was nothing short of phenomenal – for the anointed Gospel fire spread far and wide, engulfing much of Southern Africa, including Zimbabwe, upon whose patriots the mandate to plant the mission on British shores behoved nearly two decades ago.
