About
Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship
Who We Are
Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship, Inc. is a covenant fellowship of individuals, churches, ministries, and corporations headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee. We exist to build the Kingdom of God bringing ministries together in unity, equipping leaders for the work of ministry, and serving our communities with the spirit of excellence.
As an ecumenical fellowship, we welcome believers and ministries across denominational lines who hold to the gospel of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. What unites us is not a single tradition, but a shared commitment to the Truth of God received in Christ and to genuine brotherhood among those who serve Him.
Our Vision
Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship is to take the gospel of Jesus Christ globally by partnering with corporate sponsors, networking, also offering Christian fellowship, and serving others with the spirit of excellence in all that we say and do.
What We Do
Our mission is carried out through four core areas of Kingdom work:
Outreach & Missions
Through food programs, missions, and community outreach, we carry the gospel beyond the church walls and meet real needs in the communities we serve.
Conventions & Symposiums
Our gatherings bring the fellowship together for worship, sound teaching, and impartation, refreshing leaders and connecting ministries across the body of Christ.
Training & Leadership Resources
We equip ministry heads and their leadership teams with practical tools, development programs, and resources designed to help ministries grow in health and effectiveness.
Fellowship & Networking
We are a family, not just an organization. Members stand together in controversy, support one another’s ministries and businesses, and build relationships that last far beyond a single event.
What Guides Us
What Guides Us
Unity
We do nothing to fracture the unity of the fellowship, understanding that this unity proceeds from the love of God between us and our mutual commitment to the Truth of God received in Christ.
Integrity
We deal with differences honestly, forthrightly, and in a straightforward manner, refusing to believe or spread rumors about our brothers and sisters.
Brotherhood
We respond to the needs of our brothers and sisters, stand together in controversy, disagree in charity, and support one another’s ministries and businesses through participation and patronage.
Excellence
We serve with the spirit of excellence in all we say and do, with modesty and humility.
Consecration
We commit to a life of prayer, fasting, studying God’s word, and holiness — within and outside of this fellowship.
How We Are Governed
DEF operates under the leadership of a Presiding Bishop & Chief Apostle and an Executive Board of Trustees, guided by the Canons, Concordat, Liturgy, and Discipline of Destiny Ecumenical Fellowship. Members are received through a formal application and vetting process, including background screening.
