Dear Mission Partners,
I have just arrived at my hotel room here in Port Harcourt, Nigeria where our next Gospel Crusade begins tomorrow night! As part of our “Decade of Double Harvest” initiative, we have already had nearly six weeks of non-stop evangelism taking place leading up to this event. I trained six teams of evangelists for this purpose. We gave them evangelism trucks that our team custom built for the punishing terrain and designed to facilitate mobile mini-crusades anywhere they can drive.
These teams of evangelists have spent the last several weeks traveling to villages, schools, markets – anywhere people gather. But we didn’t just send them out to find a place to preach spontaneously. Our organizers have gone ahead preparing the events, each of which has participating churches, counselors, follow up material, etc. And we have been conducting up to three of these meetings per day! As you can see, this represents an enormous amount of work, but very well worth the effort. So far, nearly 10,000 people have made documented decisions to follow Jesus in these pre-crusade outreaches – and this is just the beginning. I believe the days are soon coming where we will see as many or more people saved BEFORE the crusade than during it!
My friend Eddie James is here with his team as well. This week we will be recording another LIVE worship album here in Port Harcourt. It is sure to be the best one yet!
We will be broadcasting on our video-live stream this week as well on Friday (Nov. 9th) and Saturday (Nov. 10th). You can visit and bookmark the live-stream page at www.CfaN.org/live. Or Text CFANLIVE to 900900 to receive text alerts whenever our live stream videos broadcast.
Please pray for us as the crusade kicks off tomorrow morning with the Fire Conference and then the first evangelistic meeting tomorrow night.
Yours in the Gospel,
Daniel Kolenda
Together with the whole CfaN team
