Christ for all Nations (CfaN) began with a dream. Back in 1974, Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke, then a struggling missionary in southern Africa, had a prophetic dream in which he saw a map of Africa, washed in the Blood of Jesus. He heard a voice declare, “From Cape Town to Cairo, Africa shall be saved.”
Abuja, Nigeria: Hundreds of thousands came to hear the Gospel in November.
Cairo, Egypt: Evangelist Kolenda prays for the infilling of the Holy Spirit.
Vision for the milestone year
Last year, CfaN felt a divine invitation to press into God’s promises in a way that bordered on audacious. As Evangelist Daniel Kolenda sought the Lord, the vision for the milestone year became clear: to conduct 50 mass Gospel crusades in a single year, starting in Cape Town and ending in Cairo. And they did exactly that!
Hosanna, Ethiopia: The people stayed despite the rain, such is the hunger for the Gospel.
Overcoming the odds
It took supernatural favour and incredible dedication from the CfaN team. There were massive challenges along the way, everything from trucks literally being shaken to pieces in Congo, to unseasonal torrential rains in Ethiopia, to team members facing persecution and sickness in some of the most inaccessible and hostile places on the continent.

A promise fulfilled
But we serve a God of miracles! Every time, the Lord came through. What seemed impossible at the start of 2024 became a promise fulfilled when Daniel stepped on to the stage in Cairo in November, closing the year with a historic moment of prophetic fulfilment.
