What is Armor of God Mission Center?
The AoG Mission Center is part of The IACCA, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established to equip men and women to become the spiritual leaders God designed them to be in their homes, workplaces, and churches. Founded by the creators of John Melvin University, the Armor of God Mission Center was formed in response to a perceived spiritual deficit among otherwise faithful individuals. The organization's mission is to empower these individuals to become strong spouses, parents, and spiritual leaders.
Welcome to Armor of God Mission Center, where we are dedicated to equipping, educating, and empowering individuals with the full armor of God and a deepening knowledge of Jesus Christ.
Through our strategic partnership with John Melvin University, we warmly welcome people from all backgrounds and walks of life, regardless of where they find themselves on their spiritual journey. Our philosophy embraces the concept of "come as you are, but don't stay as you are," encouraging personal growth and transformation. We strive to create a church environment that offers:
• Relevant and engaging teaching
• Heartfelt worship experiences
• Genuine and supportive friendships
• A culture of constant prayer
• Encouragement for the entire community
Our mission is to positively impact lives, one person at a time, fostering a community where individuals can grow in their faith and find support in their spiritual journey. Through our inclusive approach and commitment to biblical principles, we aim to be a beacon of hope and transformation in our community.
