About us
A legacy worth keeping.
We are maintaining and retaining the legacy of church founders.
Founded in 2019, the Church Founders and Leaders Forum (CFLF/CFI) brings together church founders and general overseers serving as apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers, bishops, archbishops and cardinals.
We stand with founders and their families, sustaining a heritage of faith, service and leadership.
Our story
Founded in 2019.
The Forum describes its founding registration and certification as beginning in the Federal Republic of Nigeria and subsequently in the United States of America. Its community extends across Africa, America, Europe and Asia.

The Forum is led through a clear structure that connects global oversight with national, state and local service.
