Unity through Prayer and Fellowship

The United Interdenominational Prayer & Fellowship Association gathers believers across traditions to intercede, disciple, and serve — as one Body, under one Lord.

Our Calling

One Lord. One Faith. One Fellowship.

For nearly four decades, UIPFA has stood as a bridge between denominations — a home for intercessors, pastors, and laity who long to see the Body of Christ move as one.

Prayer

Sustained intercession for families, cities, and nations — a ministry Dr. Edna Travis called the Midnight Cry.

Fellowship

Gathering pastors and members from many streams around one table, one Word, one Spirit.

Service

Feeding programs, prison and hospital ministry, and community initiatives that meet real needs.

Open Bible
Ephesians 4:3
“Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”

Apostle Dr. A.P. Barker

Called to pastor in the early 1980s and ordained by the Full Gospel Association, Dr. Barker leads UIPFA with decades of ministry, community, and educational service, carrying forward the vision of unity Dr. Travis first sowed.
