About Apostolic Faith Center
Apostolic Faith Center (AFC) is a Spirit-led Apostolic church located in El Mirage,
Arizona, serving the greater Phoenix area. We are committed to preaching biblical truth, fostering genuine community, and seeing lives transformed through the power of Jesus Christ.
Our Story
Founded in January 2001, Apostolic Faith Center began after a prompting of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of co-founding pastors Frank Hernandez and Daniel Duarte. What started with a small group of families meeting in homes has grown into a thriving church dedicated to ministry, discipleship, and outreach.
A Church Built on Life Change
Transformation is at the heart of AFC. Through Lifeline Outreach Arizona, a men's residential recovery ministry, lives have been restored and families rebuilt. Through AFC Christian Academy, students are equipped to grow academically, spiritually, and in Godly character with a Christ-centered environment.
Today, approximately 75% of our congregation have been impacted by Lifeline Outreach, as current participants or alumni, reflecting the power of the gospel lived out through discipleship and community.
Serving Our City
AFC is an active church, open and engaged seven days a week. We serve our community through consistent outreach, including monthly Homeless Outreach, seasonal events, and ongoing opportunities to care for people beyond our walls.
Our Mission
Changing lives one day at a time.
