About
Us

Africa Vision Tract House Society (AVTHS), is the missionary arm of the Nigeria Christian Graduate Fellowship (NCGF), started operation in 1997 but was fully registered at the Corporate Affair Commission in 2007 as a not-for-profit, non-governmental, missionary organisation for social development and charitable purposes. Africa Vision Tract House Society Missions are sponsored by willing Christian friends and partners.

How it all began

Dear Partner

In 1997, we received a vision from the Lord to write, print and freely distribute tracts for evangelism to nations of the world. Within the 20 years of our operation, we have produced over twenty-six (26) million gospel tracts. Currently, we have 161 gospel tract titles in 23 international and local languages in circulation.

To the Glory of God, we have given free medical treatment to over 45,000 people and performed over 1,361 eye and general surgeries and dispensed over 3,770 eyeglasses. Over 10,000 persons made decisions for Christ through these missions
We believe this burden is the heartbeat of God and we bless God for the privilege to be part of this end-time harvest. We write and print gospel tracts in different languages for evangelism, and distribute same FREE and meet basic human needs through our medical, evangelical, educational, social-economic missions organised within and outside Nigeria. Testimonies of changed lives and impact abound from tract readers and beneficiaries of medical missions held across communities in Africa, made possible by our partners who have stood by us for many years. Our shared opportunity and work with evangelists, missionaries, medical and non-medical personnel in communities across Africa and personal testimonies from beneficiaries highlight the needs of the people who receive the gospel.

Our Strategy

Our singular objective is to spread of the gospel of Jesus Christ that has the power to liberate people from the clutches of evil perpetuated through sin, ill-health, deformities and pain.

The vision for this project is given by the Lord to pool resources together and produce tracts and other instructional materials for the execution of the Great Commission to bring back the King – “And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come” (Matt 24:14). We also undertake medical missions to needy communities in Africa as the need arises and resources pooled together.
AVTHS has given hope, life and love to many people in some rural communities in Africa through evangelism using our gospel tracts in their own native languages as well as through medical missions.

These two areas of assignment of AVTHS – evangelism through tracts and medical missions, have had great impact on many lives across the world.

Through our Capacity Building activities like our “Writers Workshop”, “Pastoral Leadership Advanced Program (PLAP)” and skill acquisition programmes, we help churches, individuals, organisations, schools and educational institutions train persons to improve on the writing skills and acquire knowledge required for normal daily use and activities.

To do more by collaborating with individuals and organisations to:

Build human capacity through the acquisition of skills
Provide drinking water
Build schools
Build health facilities
Equip hospitals and
Train personnel in rural African communities.

You may wish to partner with us to take a medical mission to your community, as a way of giving back hope, joy and salvation to your people. Please contact us NOW!

The Story Continues...

Testimonies have come because of your sacrificial giving. Heaven also celebrates you for ushering men and women into God’s kingdom through your sincere giving to the Tract House. You shall share in this joy. Thank you for making it happen. God bless you for being part of this vision. Amen.

To meet the continuous demands for our tracts and support our medical mission services, we have kick-started the process by putting up a building that will house our equipment and activities and a Printing Press that will take care of our enormous printing needs.

We gladly invite you to partner with us to evangelize, feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, educate the orphan, clothe the naked, give life-supporting medication to the sick and offer skills training to the poor. Your brothers and sisters in Africa need your help!

Your generous financial and material contributions can make a difference in someone’s life. Partner with us TODAY.

Our Faith and Believe

The doctrinal basis of AVTHS is the fundamental truth of the Christian faith as revealed in the whole of the Holy Scriptures, including:

The one eternal God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The Lordship of Jesus Christ in the life of the believer.
The divine inspiration of the Bible and its final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.
The universal sinfulness of man which brings God’s condemnation on all men.
The redemption from the penalty and power of sin solely through the sacrificial death and bodily resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ.
The justification of the sinner by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
The present day ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
The empowering of believers by the Holy Spirit for more effective service.
The fellowship of all believers in the Universal Church which is the body of Christ.
The expectation of the personal physical return of our Lord Jesus Christ, in power and glory.
The eternal dwelling of the saints with God and the eternal separation of the unbelievers from Him.
