TEN REASONS WHY TEN Reasons WHY You Should join AEGA AEGA—the Fellowship promoting “truth & accountability” since 1976! Currently several fellowships and denominations across the country have copied the vision statement, mission statement, and slogans of AEGA. Perhaps it's a compliment that so many groups have copied AEGA, but don't be fooled by these “copycats”. AEGA is the ORIGINAL, having promoted “accountability” in ministry long before it became “popular” to do so. Dr. Henry Harbuck, AEGA's General Overseer, (Superintendent/President) is a dedicated full-time administrator, teacher, author, and world-wide conference speaker. Most ministerial credentialing associations begin in churches with 200 or less congregational members. Often the pastor of a small church, with the encouragement of pastoral acquaintances, will form an association (or fellowship of ministers). This kind of association (or fellowship) is destined for problems. Usually it will suffer from a lack of leadership and benefits. At the crossroads, which way will the pastor go? If the church grows faster than the fellowship will his/or her attention be given to the church or to the fellowship? And will the church grow weary from supporting the association if there is insufficient revenue generated by the association? Ask yourself these questions, “What qualities do you want in your overseer? And what do you expect from your fellowship? Can a full-time pastor give adequate attention to a growing ministerial association?” A Worldwide Fellowship gives you access to worldwide churches and leaders. AEGA conferences are attended by individuals from many countries throughout the world. By learning from each other, we become a harmonious unit of ministers and workers that is strong and knowledgeable. Have you ever taken a missionary trip outside the USA? Believe it or not, many pulpit pastors have never ministered outside his/or her community. AEGA has a large number of experienced missionary evangelists and short-term missionaries that regularly minister in third world countries. With our help you can expand your vision to “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations.” (MT 28:19) AEGA provides MINISTERIAL CREDENTIALS - spiritual covering. In this day and age a growing majority of churches and ministers feel that a “spiritual covering” is unnecessary. But those who launched out on their own quickly realized the “Lone Ranger Syndrome” was the wrong path to follow. Many brethren have greatly benefited from the expertise and wise counsel of AEGA leaders when they were at a crossroad. To have someone with experience, love, and wisdom to pray and guide you during difficult times is a significant reason to join AEGA. And very importantly AEGA is a long-standing fellowship with sound Biblical Doctrine. AEGA has its own University and Seminary. Most fellowships do not have a seminary or Bible college, but instead refer their ministers to other colleges. AEGA has seven branches of its University throughout the world and fifteen branches of its Bible Institute and Seminary. All US based professors hold graduate degrees from highly acclaimed theological institutions; they enjoy teaching others of like precious faith about the things of God. A large number of students and graduates have accomplished great things for the sake of the Kingdom of God because of the education they received at AEGA theological institutions. Many attest that learning acquired at Evangel University and Omega Seminary was of immeasurable value. One student commented that “Anointed knowledge is better than anointed ignorance.” Affordable Health Care Assistance. Regardless of how much time one may spend trying to stay healthy, sickness and debilitation occur as people age. Therefore, it's important to have an affordable Health Care Plan. AEGA offers one of the nations most affordable plans. The Health Care Assistance Plan is owned and operated by Christian people who not only pay the hospital and surgery bills, but also contact and pray for those who are facing surgery or medical treatment. Free 501 (c)(3) Church Law/Tax Consultation. Few attorneys have knowledge of Church Law and not-for-profit IRS laws. Although attorneys are skilled in “jurisprudence,” this alone does not prepare them to consult with those of the church world who ask difficult questions concerning the church and the laws that govern it. AEGA's consultants provide free consultation for members only. And it goes without saying that in cases where debates ensued between our consultants and other attorneys and CPA's, the AEGA consultants most often had the correct answer. Why? Because they are knowledgeable in church law, a subject about which most attorneys know little. Minister's Retirement Plan for Qualified ministers who received ministerial credentials. While it is true that many ministers never retire, some do. When a qualified AEGA minister decides to retire, for whatever reason, it is comforting to know the additional income generated from the AEGA Retirement Plan is available for certain amenities that will make retirement more enjoyable.             NOTE: Information about the plan may be gained by telephoning AEGA at 318-345-1777. Monthly Newsletter called “the Grapevine.” Keeping up with the events and happenings in AEGA is easy because everyone receives a monthly copy of “the Grapevine” newsletter. The “Grapevine” is full of encouraging news about outstanding AEGA ministers, tax tips, church growth ideas, testimonies, prayer requests, and articles by the President, Dr. Henry Harbuck. Published in full color and posted to the internet, it is read by AEGA members throughout the world. Additional benefits too numerous to mention. AEGA is, beyond doubt, one of the world's greatest fellowships. It is committed to assisting ministers in becoming more effective in whatever role they've chosen.

TESTIMONIALS PDF Print E-mail

AEGA is more than an organization, it is a family that I am very blessed to be a part of. The staff is always available to answer questions, pray and give sound biblical advice on the particulars of ministry. I am also impressed by the integrity and leadership of our presiding and territorial leaders as they work in love and unity to bring us encouragement and direction.”   
Gerald Reliford, Pastor & Professor—Kentucky 


I joined the AEGA family as an ordained minister with a call to Army Chaplaincy. This ministry has led me and my family from coast to coast and to Europe. I have been deployed to Iraq two times and throughout this journey my AEGA family has always been a source of unwavering support. I say that without a doubt, whatever battlefield I am on whether physical or spiritual my AEGA family will rally to the call standing with me through prayer, love and support. I am truly blessed to be part of this family. "Taking the High Ground” - Chaplain Todd Williams—3rd Bn 1st SFG (A) 


Among the many benefits of being a member of AEGA, is the opportunity of meeting and making life-long friends that are as close as our family. The friendliness, the warmth and the fellowship of the members is the distinguishing attribute of the organization. For over a decade my wife (also an ordained minister with AEGA) and I have enjoyed the fellowship of network of like minded ministers around the world. We are truly grateful for the opportunity and to be a part of what God is doing through AEGA around the world.  
Michael Atunrase, Pastor, Teacher, Missionary, Evangelist—Pennsylvania 


 “I have been a member of the AEGA since 1989 and am so blessed to be a part of such a great organization. The leadership and staff are wonderful, humble servants of and for the Lord. They have always been there for me and my family and at times have gone above and beyond the call of service to others. If you choose to become a member of the AEGA you will find that we are just normal people who also have been called of the Lord to do His will. You will receive all the guidance and help that you will need to be a viable part of God's Kingdom.”
Jack Ernest, Missionary, Evangelist & Chaplain—Ohio


 “I went to the International Minister’s Conference to see if I could sense the vision of AEGA. Well, I am happy to report that I not only sensed it, but I also wanted to be a part of it.”
Jerry Hatfield,  Chaplain & Professor—Texas  


“As an international ministry, I was searching for a ministry organization that would not only fulfill the ministry, spiritual and legal needs, but I also wanted a fellowship of "real" people. That's exactly what I found at AEGA. At AEGA I know that I am not just a "number" in a computer. I'm part of a ministry organization that truly cares about me and my ministry. I’m very proud to say that AEGA is a great part of my ministry family.
” Rocky Morris, Evangelist & Christian Recording Artist—South Carolina 


“I love my AEGA family. They epitomize I Corinthians 13:4-7. I am so glad the Holy Spirit led me to this Bible believing and praying body! Their love never fails.”  Adrienne Unae, Evangelist & Teacher—New York
