Dear Missions Partners,
Despite the fact that tonight marks the completion of our 406th Gospel Crusade I saw a couple things tonight that I’ve never seen before. First of all, the crowd was so dense that there was enormous heat coming off the people – so much so that some began to faint. This is not new however; we’ve seen this before. What was new was the solution the local authorities had for the problem. They brought in fire engines and began to douse the crowd with water cannons to cool them off! All throughout my preaching 50-60 foot tall jets of water moved around the crowd spraying the people (quite ironic considering we have been praying all week that it wouldn’t rain). There’s never a dull moment.
Because of the incredible density of the crowd, especially near the platform, we were unable to bring people forward to give their testimonies of healing. Still, when I asked for a show of hands from those who had experienced a miracle, it was thousands. But the greatest miracle of all was the multitudes that were born again tonight, making a life changing decision to follow Jesus.
This afternoon, Peter van den Berg and I were invited to visit with the King of the Ashante Kingdom (which was the largest African Kingdom in history, spanning over several countries at one point). The King told me he had heard reports of what was happening at the crusade and asked if I would pray for him. I had a chance to pray with him, his top deputies and his 104-year-old mother.
The pastors sitting on the platform were the top bishops and apostles of the region. They are distinguished men and women – highly educated and greatly respected throughout Ghana. They told me that they have never seen an event like this before. They also commented over and over that they were very blessed by the messages and the purity of the Gospel that was preached. This is what we set out to accomplish. We don’t just want to have a few miracles and big crowds; we are here to preach the clear Gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit.
All in all we saw 1,060,000 attend this week’s Gospel Crusade. The city has been absolutely rocked and I’m sure that generations to come will be impacted by what Jesus has done here this week.
Being the last crusade of the year, on behalf of the whole CfaN family, I want to wish you and yours an early Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season. May your home be filled with the wonder of God’s love expressed in the ultimate gift of Jesus Christ.
Yours in the Gospel,
Evangelist Daniel Kolenda
Together with Reinhard Bonnke, Peter van den Berg and the whole CfaN team

God richly bless you and your entire team for the great work you all doing for the glory of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ the righteous. I had and encounter and the gospel messages still in my mind. This message I will never forget. “You cannot give what yo do not have. Let me tell you why no one can save you. Because none on them was born in a manger, none of them died for me, none of them came from heaven, none of them sits at the right hand of God. There’s only one name that can save me. JESUS.” Thank you very much for this deeper truth to me.
May the lord bless you and accomplish great things through you for his people. Don’t stop to pray for us evangelist Kolenda.
I was at the crusade on Thursday and Sunday and all I can say is glory be to God.
That was the biggest gathering I have ever witnessed at a crusade in Ghana throughout my life. We were so filled with the Spirit that we felt no pain after standing from 4:20pm to around 9:00pm.
Wow. God bless you Evangelist Daniel Kolenda and the whole CfaN team for bringing the good news to us in Kumasi. Kumasi is truly blessed. You and your team brought virtually EVERYONE in Kumasi to the Suame Roundabout for Jesus.
May there be a greater outpouring of grace on your life and the ministry.
I was glad to realize Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke’s son was that cameraman who appeared so busy doing his work. I am inspired to do more for God with the talents He has given me.
Wonderful. I was in the western region in October preaching in churches, visiting schools and clinics. Have done the same in the Ashanti region many times too. Great land in such need especially now.
What an amazing event. I pray for the people of Ghana and that we would have this kind of revival here in the the U.S.
OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD. THE END TIME REVIVAL HAS STARTED IN ALL THE NATIONS. MAY GOD BLESS REINHARD BONKES MINISTRY ABUNDANTLY
Amazing move of God! I will continuely pray for the team.
What a wonderful report! I am so thankful for the million plus souls that heard the Good News and for the thousands upon thousands who were born again. We rejoice in the healings and the testimony that our God is a powerful God, and He reigns supreme! Daniel, Peter, Reinhard we lift you and your families to the Lord to prosper in the perfect will of our Lord. May He grant you protection, health, strength, and ever increasing anointing as you minister in Jesus’ Name. May you find rest and peace (shalom) as you recover in the embrace of our dear Abba Father, and may you hear Him whispering your name with great love.
Merry Christmas to you all, also. We rejoice as we lift you in prayer.

Praise God for grace and the great work He is doing. I was not at Kumasi but had the opportunity to participate in the one organised in Accra. I will continue to pray with this great ministry as God is using this ministry to raise an army for the end time harvest. God bless us all as we concern ourselves with this great work sincerely.

Evangelist, thanks a lot for staging such a crusade in Kumasi. I have been blessed with the powerful message God sent through you to the people of Ghana.
The three laws of sin, death and salvation that you talked about on the last day is very memorable and I don’t know if I may see you again but I hope to keep these words from you in order to live a righteous life to get the salvation God has for me. May God bless us all.
