About
Who We Are
All Nations Fellowship began in 2006 in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
In a city that had experienced enormous loss, devastation, and uncertainty, a group of believers felt called to bring hope and practical help to the people of New Orleans.
What started as ministry to meet immediate needs became something much deeper.
It became a church.
From the beginning, the vision was clear:
to build a church that reflected the diversity of heaven and served the needs of the city.
Today, All Nations Fellowship continues to live out that calling.
Our Mission
Our mission is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, serve the people of New Orleans, and raise up leaders who will carry the message of hope to the world.
We believe the Church is called to be:
Spirit-Filled
Biblically Grounded
Outward Focused
Compassion Driven
Community Engaged
Our Community
Our church family reflects the incredible diversity of New Orleans.
More than 67% of our congregation comes from ethnic minority backgrounds, and our members represent a wide range of cultures, experiences, and economic backgrounds.
You will meet people from:
• Professional careers
• College students
• Working families
• Individuals overcoming homelessness and hardship
What unites us is the love of Christ and a shared desire to serve one another.
What We Believe
All Nations Fellowship is a Pentecostal church affiliated with the Assemblies of God. We believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God and the foundation for our faith and practice. Our desire is to see people come to know Jesus Christ, grow in their relationship with Him, and live out their faith in everyday life.
We are passionate about expository preaching, teaching through Scripture in a clear and faithful way so that people can understand God’s Word and apply it to their lives.
We also believe in the present work of the Holy Spirit, who empowers believers to grow spiritually and share the hope of the Gospel with the world.
The Scriptures Inspired
The Scriptures, both the Old and New Testaments, are verbally inspired of God and are the revelation of God to man, the infallible, authoritative rule of faith and conduct.
The One True God
The one true God has revealed Himself as the eternally self-existent “I AM,” the Creator of heaven and earth and the Redeemer of mankind. He has further revealed Himself as embodying the principles of relationship and association as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Deity of the Lord Jesus Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God.
The Fall of Man
Man was created good and upright; for God said, “Let us make man in our own image, after our likeness.” However, man by voluntary transgression fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.
The Salvation of Man
Man’s only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
The Ordinances of the Church
Baptism in Water
The ordinance of baptism by immersion is commanded by the Scriptures. All who repent and believe on Christ as Saviour and Lord are to be baptized. Thus they declare to the world that they have died with Christ and that they also have been raised with Him to walk in newness of life.
Holy Communion
The Lord’s Supper, consisting of the elements –bread and the fruit of the vine– is the symbol expressing our sharing the divine nature of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 1:4 [KJV/NIV]), a memorial of his suffering and death (1 Corinthians 11:26 [KJV/NIV]), and a prophecy of His second coming (1 Corinthians 11:26 [KJV/NIV]), and is enjoined on all believers “till He come!”
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit
All believers are entitled to and should ardently expect and earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the baptism in the Holy Spirit and fire, according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ. This was the normal experience of all in the early Christian Church. With it comes the enduement of power for life and service, the bestowment of the gifts and their uses in the work of the ministry.
The Initial Physical Evidence of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit
The baptism of believers in the Holy Spirit is witnessed by the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit of God gives them utterance.
Sanctification
Sanctification is an act of separation from that which is evil, and of dedication unto God.
The Church and Its Mission
The Church is the Body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of her great commission. Each believer, born of the Spirit, is an integral part of the General Assembly and Church of the Firstborn, which are written in heaven.
The Ministry
A divinely called and scripturally ordained ministry has been provided by our Lord for the fourfold purpose of leading the Church in evangelization of the world, worship of God, building a Body of Saints being perfected in the image of His Son, and meeting human need with ministries of love and compassion.
Divine Healing
Divine healing is an integral part of the gospel. Deliverance from sickness is provided for in the atonement, and is the privilege of all believers.
The Blessed Hope
The resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the imminent and blessed hope of the church.
The Millennial Reign of Christ
The second coming of Christ includes the rapture of the saints, which is our blessed hope, followed by the visible return of Christ with His saints to reign on earth for one thousand years.
The Final Judgment
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 the everlasting punishment in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
The New Heavens and the New Earth
“We, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.”
