A forum for African clergy and religious to meet, be united and support one another
Spanning from Egypt to Zimbabwe, we constitute a unified, dynamic African faith community, collaborating to serve and support our respective communities throughout the United States. If you are a member of the clergy, a seminarian, or a religious engaged in work or studies within the United States, ACCCRUS offers comprehensive support.
In unity we possess greater strength: bound together by faith, uplifted by community, committed to serving one another with purpose and love.
