The Association of Tanzanian Adventist Professionals and Entrepreneurs (ATAPE) is a faith-based organization within the Seventh – Day Adventist (SDA) Church in Tanzania that brings together all professionals and entrepreneurs. The organization was established in 1998 by a group of Seventh-Day Adventist professionals who found it necessary to not only use their professions for individual benefit but also for the LORD, their fellow church members, and the community at large. Over the years that followed, there was a growing need to incorporate entrepreneurs into the Association. Finally, in 2012, the decision was made, and the name ATAPE was born.
ATAPE’s publications and media content will inspire and encourage you in your spiritual walk. Additionally, these media resources can be used by anyone to share the gospel around the world! Video presentations from our annual conventions as well as testimonies from our members are also available.
At each annual ATAPE Convention, ATAPE collects a special projects offering that is used to sponsor 40+ preselected ministry projects. Ministries must apply for sponsorship by December 31 of the prior year. Each project ministry is required to provide progress reports to ASI, which allows ASI leadership and members to verify that the funds are being used in a timely manner and for the designated purpose.
ASI membership is exciting and rewarding. ASI members share a common goal to support the mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in reaching the world with the good news of God’s love by “Sharing Christ in the Marketplace.” In getting to know other members at local and national conventions and conferences, you’ll develop a deepening love for both the ASI family and the worldwide church family.
