Our Story

HOW IT ALL STARTED:


Pastor Joe Asmah found his calling and ministry for many years leading people into God’s Presence through worship. In 2008, Pastor Joe and Eunice Asmah moved from their previous place of service to further God’s purpose for their lives. During this time of waiting, he led a small group of people in times of prayer. The Lord began to press on his heart and continuously confirm His intent for them to begin a new work in New Jersey. Soon after, Pastor Joe received an invitation that changed his life; his calling was confirmed and he was offered a place of worship at Union Baptist Church in Kenilworth, NJ. 

In this season, Pastor Joe Asmah reached out to Reverend Dr. Frank Ofosu Appiah, who became (and is currently) his mentor and spiritual father. Although they had previously spoken periodically, Pastor Joe Asmah had an urge to submit under the cover of Living Springs international Ministries. 

Their first church service was held on November 9, 2008 in the living room of Joe and Eunice Asmah with 14 adults in attendance. Pastor Joe Asmah was ordained and All Nations Church NJ was officially inaugurated on April 19, 2009. Two locations later, we now own and occupy 30,000 square feet of property located at 412 Linden Avenue Elizabeth, NJ 07202.

EXPANDING THE VISION:

We have a mandate to make sure that people of all walks of life grow deeper into a relationship with Christ, despite the pressures of the world. This mandate has also begun to attract younger generations. In June 2009, the first ever youth and young adults ministry was launched and to date, it has grown exponentially. Hence, in the past decade, we have seen our church quadruple in size. In 2021 alone, we have seen a great number of people dedicate and re-dedicate their lives to the Lord during street ministry and in services, as well as dozens of youth baptized at summer youth camp. More than numbers, we are seeing lives transformed and potential released. 

WHERE WE ARE HEADED:

We are reaching out to the unreached. We are headed to more souls saved, and more baptisms in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. While we are expanding in size, we are also expanding in impact. We envision a church where people’s outward lives reflect their inward heart posture, which will cause a ripple effect of even more lives being transformed.

We envision multiple services that meet people where they are. We are headed to teen services where they will lead and serve in different capacities, including worship and music. Our only expectation is that God will meet us at every service and His Glory will move each time we meet. The unexpected will happen. Instant miracles, signs, and wonders will take place at every service, as we emulate the New Testament Church.
