- What We Do
Mission Work
To train, develop and prepare God’s people for ministry to do good works, so that the body of Christ may be built up; to plant churches, especially in the un-reached areas; to present the Gospel with love and Holy Ghost power to millions who do not know Christ; to conduct regular training for the formation of Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers who will be living epistles, living examples of Jesus Christ; to show mercy and compassion by instituting homes for widows, orphans, the old aged, prostitutes, eunuchs, captives and the broken hearted; and to bring relief to the oppressed, sick and those in bondage.
The single most effective evangelistic methodology under heaven is planting new churches. TAMI emphasizes that newly planted churches naturally attract those outside the faith, face fewer internal barriers, and play a key role in Kingdom growth and reaching the lost in an increasingly fragmented world. TAMI views church planting as God’s ordained strategy for expanding the Church, fully aligned with Christ’s mission to seek and save the lost.
Global Church Planting
Our vision includes planting churches in spiritually dry or unreached regions, raising local leaders and pastors, establishing prayer towers and hubs of discipleship, building strong, sustainable faith communities, and empowering believers to transform their villages, towns, and cities.
International Crusades
Our ministry is dedicated to bringing the love of Jesus to every community. Partnering with pastors, mission leaders, and volunteers, we host Spirit-led crusades that transform lives through salvation and spiritual renewal, bring healing, deliverance, and hope, and ignite faith and inspire lasting spiritual breakthroughs. These efforts empower believers to impact their neighbourhoods, serve communities with acts of love and care, reach cities and nations with God’s Word, and build a movement of discipleship, mentorship, and restoration.
Middle East Outreach
Dedicated mission work focusing on challenging areas including Iran, Afghanistan, and Syria.
Rural and Tribal Outreach
Sharing the gospel in remote villages and unreached tribal communities in India and Africa.

Training Disciples – Transforming Nations
Since 2003, TAMI has been committed to equipping local believers with strong biblical foundations, empowering them to lead, disciple, and advance the Gospel in their own nations.
Our Journey of Training:
- 2003 – Zanzibar: First International School of Discipleship conducted in partnership with local ministers.
Sixty days of free food, accommodation, and Bible training were provided to 151 students from Uganda, Kenya, Zanzibar, and Tanzania. These transformed disciples returned to their villages and began vibrant ministries across East Africa. - 2004 – Kenya: A second Bible School with new enrollments strengthened the growing movement.
- 2005 – Uganda: The third School of Discipleship saw hundreds receive water baptism and commit their lives to Jesus Christ.
- 2005–Present: Bible Schools expanded to Burundi, Rwanda, Congo, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Cameroon, and Pakistan—raising leaders, pastors, and evangelists across nations.
- 2008 – Congo (Uvira Prison): A School of Discipleship was held for 220 inmates; 124 obeyed God’s Word and were baptized.
How We Train
Students are taught the Word of God with compassion, clarity, and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Each one is discipled to:
- Grow in spiritual maturity
- Understand foundational biblical truth
- Walk in the fire and power of the Holy Spirit
- Preach the Gospel with boldness
- Lead and plant churches in their communities
When they return home, they become passionate soul-winners, church planters, and carriers of revival.
Impact
From 2003 to 2023, it has become clear that the most effective way to reach nations is by training local ministers and equipping them to impact their own communities.
To date, over 11,348 disciples have been trained, many of whom are actively transforming lives—especially across Africa.
Following Jesus’ example of compassion and love, we demonstrate mercy by establishing and supporting various social programs. This work is aimed at meeting the physical and emotional needs of the vulnerable, the marginalized, and the broken-hearted in the communities we serve.
