Asian American Discipleship for Vocational Empowerment, Nurture and Transformation

Empower. Nurture. Transform. These are the things that AADVENT seeks for next generations of Asian American leaders in both church and community. We have heard the hopes and dreams of many young Asian American leaders and recognize their deep need for discipleship through mentors and roles models in ministry. Click here for more info>>

The AADVENT Project seeks to nurture the next generation of Asian American leaders in church and community by gathering Asian American young adults across ethnic and denominational lines to come together in worship, study, and theological reflection; by nurturing them in their faith and identity formation; by exposing them to Asian American leaders in various forms of ministry; by challenging them to be faithful in their Christian vocation; and to empower them to be transformative leaders in church and community.
