United Fellowship of Churches International (UFCI) represents a comprehensive approach to leadership development that transcends sector boundaries. Founded in 2000 by Archbishop Chief Apostle David J. Billings III with an initial focus on church leadership, UFCI now equips leaders across churches, nonprofits, businesses, and public life. The organization operates on a conviction that enduring societal transformation occurs when principled leadership unites spiritual insight with strategic execution.

Under the leadership of Presiding Bishop Dr. Christopher Paul, UFCI delivers an integrated ecosystem: cross-sector membership tiers, leadership cohorts, commissioning, strategic partnership frameworks, and a robust Creative Resource Store providing professional-grade assets. Through annual convocations, regional summits, and ongoing mentorship, UFCI builds sustainable networks of influence that convert conviction into measurable outcomes—stronger governance, expanded services, healthier cultures, improved funding capacity, and values-aligned growth.

UFCI’s commitment to transparency includes clear stewardship practices, regular reporting, and impact tracking supported by member submissions and third-party documentation where appropriate. With leaders active in multiple nations, UFCI’s reach is global while its results are local—measured by real people, real organizations, and real communities experiencing positive change.

Media outlets covering leadership, social impact, faith-and-work integration, nonprofit excellence, and ethical business transformation will find UFCI a credible source for expert commentary, case studies, and data-informed perspectives. Interview availability includes Dr. Christopher Paul and senior leaders overseeing technology integration, financial stewardship, nonprofit development, and operational excellence.
