FROM THE PRESIDENT

DANIEL KOLENDA

DECADE OF DOUBLE HARVEST Dear Ministry & Missions Friends and Partners,

You can only imagine the whirlwind of emotion I experienced when I heard the news while at a Crusade in

Nigeria (on the morning of December 7, 2019): Reinhard Bonnke has gone home. YES, Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke (our beloved founder) went home to be with the Lord after a remarkable

79 years of living. He was powerfully used of God to reach millions with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Over 79 million salvations were documented as a result of his faithful obedience! (That’s ONE MILLION SOULS for EVERY YEAR he lived here on earth!)

He often said to me, “Daniel, You are not to become the custodian of my legacy. Preach the Gospel!” I know

he is cheering us on from his front row seat in that “great cloud of witnesses” as God has given us a fresh mandate to DOUBLE our 30-year (75 million souls) milestone and press forward to reach the 150 million souls mark in the next 10 years. We are calling it the “Decade of the Double Harvest.”

That is why we are strategically and systematically expanding our efforts, and God is already multiplying

the results. FOR EXAMPLE: Several weeks prior to each crusade event, we now send teams of evangelists to schools, hospitals, orphanages, marketplaces and out on the streets to preach the Good News of Jesus, pray for the sick and cast out demons.

ALREADY in these pre-crusade outreaches, we have seen hundreds of thousands saved. That’s in addition to

the millions saved in our massive 4-day Gospel campaigns! This SPECIAL EDITION IMPACT magazine was prayerfully assembled for you to: • COMMEMORATE the marvelous legacy of Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke; • CELEBRATE the miracle results God has brought throughout this past year of ministry; • COMMUNICATE the VISION the Lord has clearly given us for the future.

AND… YOU play a key part in every page that you are about to read.

THANK YOU for SUPPORTING us with your prayers and your finances! We are so grateful

to be entering into this Decade of the Double Harvest TOGETHER with YOU!

Yours in the Harvest,

Evangelist Daniel Kolenda

OVERCOMING

OBSTACLES MARCH 28 - 31 • 2019

The Gospel Crusade in Lomé, Togo had been scheduled several weeks prior, but due to some insurmountable difficulties at the border, it was postponed at the last minute. Despite the disappointment and inconvenience, God would prove true to His Word—making all things work together for good!

205,450 R E G I S T E R E D D EC I S I O N S FO R C H R I S T

On the second night of the Gospel Crusade, when it appeared that the field would be far too small to accommodate the attendees, Evangelist Daniel Kolenda preached about the blood of Jesus, and the Holy Spirit demonstrated His power. Every night after the prayer for salvation, the people brought their demonic trinkets, charms, fetishes, amulets, “juju” and idols to be burned in large drums. Often these items have been given to people by witch doctors. They instill great fear and superstition in those who possess them. But on one particular night, both drums, which had just burned earlier, were both filled again! For a second time on the same night, people renounced them and the witchcraft behind them. Then Evangelist Kolenda took authority over every curse, broke them in Jesus’ name, and the people rejoiced in freedom. For the past year, trained and equipped young evangelists were sent into cities, like Lomé, for weeks ahead of the crusades to reach out to the locals. They went to many places that the main crusades couldn’t reach. They ministered in schools, villages,

marketplaces, on street corners, on church properties and football fields—anywhere to attract an audience. And with the proper equipment, these tenacious evangelists hosted up to three meetings per day. Eight weeks before the Togo Gospel Crusade, the evangelists preached the Gospel—two of them were Paul Maurer and Jared Horton. Paul prayed for a woman who could not walk for one year as a result of a car accident, and she was healed. Another woman, paralyzed and carried to the field one night, was healed and able to walk. Also, a young lady whose foot was twisted to one side was healed as her foot straightened out, and she walked normally. During one of the village outreaches, one woman testified that a lump in her breast vanished.

Every night after the prayer for salvation, the people brought their demonic trinkets, charms, fetishes, amulets, “juju” and idols to be burned in large drums!

These were just a few of many wonderful miracles that happened in Lomé—a glimpse of what God is doing in Africa today! Please continue to pray for these crusades. The best is yet to come! n

Over 60,000 people filled Orlando’s open-air Camping World Stadium for a one-day event: The SEND.


USA In February of 2018, just three days after the death of Billy Graham, a small group of men met at the Christ for all Nations headquarters in Orlando to talk about collaborating for the sake of sparking a worldwide missions movement. Out of that meeting, The Send was born. Christ for all Nations (led by Daniel Kolenda) together with Brian Brennt (Circuit Riders), Andy Byrd (YWAM), Lou Engle, Teo Hayashi (Dunamis Movement, Brazil) Michael Koulianos (Jesus Image) and Todd White (Lifestyle Christianity) comprise the seven collaborators that lead The Send.

Seven ministries (including CfaN) collaborated to create the Send event.

The SEND is about launching a new generation into the harvest fields of the world that are so ripe for harvest.

The first gathering of The Send was in Orlando in February 2018. Nearly 60,000 people, mostly youth, gathered in Camping World Stadium for twelve hours of prayer, the preaching of the Gospel and commissioning to the mission field! As a result, more than 2,500 people received Christ! In addition: • 5,423 committed to go to the nations as missionaries • 2,467 adopted schools to evangelize • 5,064 adopted a neighborhood to evangelize • 2,197 adopted a college campus to evangelize • 18,196 committed to fast and pray for this harvest

Attendees raise their shoes as a symbolic gesture – a personal declaration to go forth and share the Gospel.

• Hundreds enrolled at bible schools and training centers

Evangelist Kolenda said, “The SEND is about launching a new generation into the harvest fields of the world that are so ripe for harvest. Now, more than ever, we need laborers to take this Gospel into all the world.” This initiative is part of the “Decade of Double Harvest” strategy that Kolenda believes will spark the greatest evangelistic movement in history. We look forward to The SEND events taking place in 2020 and beyond! We hope to see you there! n The crowd was visibly moved by God’s mighty Word during the 12 hours of worship and ministry.

IGNITED FOR

CHRIST

Evangelist Daniel Kolenda and the Christ for all Nations team held a campaign in Nakuru, Kenya from August 8-11, 2019. In the weeks leading up to the main event, a team of evangelists preached the Gospel in more than 600 schools, villages, markets and orphanages.

More than 200,000 people received Christ… BEFORE THE EVENT STARTED!! In some of the schools where the team ministered, they had full-blown outpourings of the Holy Spirit. The power of God moved among students for hours, with hundreds laid out under the power of God. And still others were dramatically delivered from demons…in public schools. As the sun was rising over the Rift Valley in Nakuru, Kenya, it illuminated an amazing scene. By 6:30 AM, thousands of pastors and church leaders had already gathered on the campaign field, under the African sky, to hear the Word of God during the Fire Conference. One local pastor said to Peter Vandenberg that he had never seen anything like it—not even in the churches—much less on an open field. There is truly a tremendous hunger here for the things of God, even among the leaders. This is a great sign that God is doing something powerful in Nakuru. These men and women will disciple the new converts that were saved during the campaign.

Also, a team of evangelists—graduates from the School of Evangelism—had been ministering in Nakuru! Jared Horton was one of them. On one of the campaign nights he shared a powerful testimony before Evangelist Kolenda preached. He told of a young woman in one of the schools where they ministered. A witch doctor gave her a braided piece of cloth to tie around her waist, telling her it would protect her against evil spirits. Meanwhile, this young woman had become completely demon

After that testimony, drums full of witchcraft Juju were burnt. Many people surrendered and broke the curses in Jesus’ name. One woman testified that she was healed when the curses were broken. Many other wonderful testimonies of healing followed, including deaf ears, stomach ulcers, asthma, arthritis and all kinds of pain and paralysis! n

It had been over 30 years since the last CfaN crusade in Kisumu, and a whole new generation arrived on the scene. There was a great harvest to reap there, and the local leaders said they had been praying for someone to come and help them.

77,514 REGISTERED DECISIONS FOR CHRIST

Less than five weeks after the last crusade in Kenya, and just a few days after the amazing Light the Fire Again event in Pensacola, the team returned to Kenya for another campaign. While other evangelists were discouraged because of security concerns, Evangelist Kolenda believed the Lord had appointed him for such a time. The Gospel Campaign in Kisumu was glorious.

describe what happened. When Evangelist Kolenda prayed over the crowd to receive the baptism in the Spirit, the power of God came down in a tangible way. “I became so inebriated; I found it difficult to minister. Bodies lay all over the ground. Little children were weeping in the presence of God. I asked a little girl what she was feeling, and she said, ‘Power!’” Evangelist Kolenda reported. Many received deliverance from demons, and many miracles happened. Just in the last couple days of crusade meetings, a crippled woman was totally healed of arthritis. She could walk and even jump! Many people with chronic pain—some with pain lasting for years—said the pain suddenly vanished and did not return. Still more miracles: A woman’s stomach tumor of 10 years vanished; a girl possessed by demons for six years was delivered; a man with a paralyzed arm—from a robbery assault over a year before—was totally healed; a woman, whose mother had been insane since 1989, said that her mother totally returned to her right mind. Also, a word of knowledge was given regarding someone being healed from an abscess on the right side of their mouth. Two women came forward: one had the abscess and severe swelling and pain for over a year, and the other woman had suffered the same problems for two months. Both were instantly healed, and the swelling and pain vanished. There were many, many more testimonies — too many to mention. Suffice it to say… We can only say that Kisumu was shaken by the power of the Gospel! n

THE SUPERNATURAL REALM IS VERY REAL, AND IT DIRECTLY IMPACTS OUR DAY-TO-DAY LIVES. “Ultimately the spiritual war was already won on the cross. Yet we live in a world where people are still slaves to sin and the devil. Their minds are still under that demonic spirit of the age. We are called to set them free. We proclaim the good news and then we demonstrate the kingdom of God by bringing its power to bear. Where there are demons, we cast them out. Where there is sickness, we heal it. Where there is bondage, we break it. Where there are strongholds, we pull them down. We do this with all the tools God has given us—preaching, prayer, faith, prophetic words, signs, wonders, miracles, love, sacrifice, acts of service, and so on. I emphasize these things because often when people think of spiritual warfare, they think of a one-dimensional aspect of it—usually praying loudly. But spiritual warfare is not confined to prayer. Jesus modeled how we wage our war against darkness. Jesus is the dragon slayer we should seek to imitate.”

ISRAEL TOUR 2019

HOLY LAND ENCOUNTER “Are you hungry?” asked Todd White. “What is it that you want to experience? This is your chance to tell Him!” As people lined up to be baptized in the Jordan River, Daniel Kolenda continued: “All of His promises will come to pass as we baptize you in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit.” Then Brian Guerin prophesied about joy unspeakable—how it erupts and flows like thick lava from the hearts of worshipers who want to surrender their lives to Christ. The next generation of giant-killers, revivalists, prophets and evangelists arose from the Jordan River.

There are moments in your life when you can point to a time, a place…the Jordan River…and know that you had an encounter with the living God. The journey to Israel was one of them. People journey to Israel for various reasons. Some come to see a holy landmark; others come out of curiosity. But there are those who come with hunger, thirst, a desire, crying out, “Lord, do not take Your eyes off of us! Let us enter into the Holy of Holies. Let us enter and dwell in your presence.”

Seven weeks before the main Gospel Crusade bombarded the region with the Gospel, the pre-crusade team of evangelists arrived. Christ for all Nations conducted 273 outreaches and saw 77,879 people come to Christ—before the Crusade even started! The “Decade of Double Harvest” was underway!

When Evangelist Daniel Kolenda arrived in Abeokuta, Nigeria, he was greeted by a lively crowd all along the road, made up of local believers, pastors, bishops and other leaders. They were full of joy and anticipation of what God was going to do. Evangelist Kolenda was escorted to the governor’s mansion where he shared with the governor (who is a believer) and his entire cabinet. He was then taken to the king’s palace where he was able to share the Gospel.

LEGACY OF HARVEST

1940 – 2019

Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke was a living reflection of courage, commitment, conviction, credibility, compassion, humility and sold-out service to the call of God on his life.

The Legacy of a World Changer He was affectionately known as “God’s General” and “The Billy Graham of Africa.” He spent a remarkable 60 of his 79 years preaching the Gospel and would often say that his life’s mission was to “plunder Hell to populate Heaven.” His heart was filled with an unconditional love for Jesus; a fearless faith for the miraculous; and an unrelenting passion to preach the Gospel. The son of a pastor, Reinhard Bonnke gave his life to the Lord at age nine and heard the call to the mission field before he was even a teenager. After attending Bible college in Wales, he became a pastor in Germany for seven years, and then went on to start mission work in southern Africa.

This day will go down in history as the day one of God’s greatest generals went home. — Evangelist Daniel Kolenda DECEMBER 7, 2019

LEGACY OF HARVEST

It was there, in the small mountain kingdom of Lesotho, that God placed upon his heart the vision of “the continent of Africa, washed in the precious Blood of Jesus”—an entire continent, from Cape Town to Cairo and from Dakar to Djibouti—that needed to be reached and to hear the proclamation of the signsfollowing Gospel.

Mass Evangelist He began holding meetings in a tent that accommodated 800 people. As attendance increased, larger and larger tents had to be purchased until finally, in 1984, he commissioned the construction of the world’s largest mobile structure at the time, a tent capable of seating 34,000 people! Soon, the attendance at his meetings exceeded the capacity of this huge structure, and he began open-air Gospel campaigns with an initial gathering of more than 150,000 people.

LEGACY OF HARVEST

In 1974, Reinhard founded Christ for All Nations with the goal of reaching the entire continent of Africa with the Gospel. The ministry increased the number of crusades held per year in Africa and also began to branch out to Asia by holding one crusade per year in that part of the world. Crusades followed in Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore, India and South America. Each event resulted in tens of thousands receiving Jesus Christ as their Savior, and multitudes were healed and delivered from demonic forces. At one such rally in Lagos, Nigeria, held in 2000, more than 6 million people came out to hear him preach. As part of the ministry’s discipleship training program, over 185.5 million copies of CfaN books and booklets have been published in 103 languages and printed in 55 countries. Millions of books have been freely given (“seeded”) throughout the world. Remembering Reinhard’s own words: “I grew up as the overlooked child in the Bonnke family, and God used that pain to sensitize my heart to the overlooked people of the world.

those whose names no one will ever celebrate. He has given me a heart to preach to the poor on the continent of Africa, and in other parts of the world as well.”

Passing the Torch In 2006 Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke began to share the CfaN platform with a young evangelist named Daniel Kolenda. Daniel’s journey with CfaN began in the warehouse where his job was stocking shelves and sweeping floors. Later, Evangelist Bonnke invited him to travel with him from time to time as an assistant. Evangelist Bonnke wrote about Kolenda in the mid 2000’s saying, “He reminds me of myself at his age. I have noticed that he carries the Holy Spirit’s flame from above. I believe he is one of the next generation’s movers and shakers in the Kingdom of God. I have handed him my microphone to preach the Gospel from the CfaN platform…and the results are the same as when I preached. Hundreds of thousands responded to the invitation, and miracles follow the preaching of the Word. Hallelujah!” Eventually, God spoke to Reinhard about Kolenda saying, “The anointed must be appointed.” Evangelist

LEGACY OF HARVEST

Kolenda was appointed lead evangelist and CEO of CfaN in 2009 and for a decade, evangelist Bonnke supported Kolenda in this role. Evangelist Bonnke said, “This ministry is not my private property. It is all by God’s grace.” On December 6, 2019, CfaN celebrated “Founder’s Day” – 45 years since evangelist Bonnke started the ministry. And, on December 7, we celebrated his home going. Yes – 7 is associated in God’s word with completion… A race that is finished! Although the earthly life and work of Reinhard Bonnke is finished here, we can still imagine him smiling in Heaven and saying… “The Ministry of CfaN is not over, it has just begun. God’s best is yet to come. So run with the vision, Daniel – take the baton and run!” The love for Reinhard Bonnke in Africa is unparalleled. He not only left an indelible mark on this continent but the nations of the world as well. We are still walking down the trail he forged over many years of faithfully preaching the gospel. n

Reinhard Bonnke is survived by his wife, Anni, three adult children, Kai-Uwe, Gabriele, and Susanne, and eight grandchildren.

During these years he also developed other highly successful evanglism tools such as The African Messenger (distributed widely in Africa) and the “Bicycle Evangelists” (who went where cars could not yet go).


LEGACY OF HARVEST

1980’S CfaN soon outgrew the “Yellow Tent,” and the “Big Tent” was dedicated in 1984. The first ever Fire Conference took place in Harare, Zimbabwe and they have had a huge impact on church leaders ever since. Soon, however, the Big Tent also became too small and open air campaigns became the norm.

1990’S

In line with Evangelist Bonnke’s vision “From Capetown to Cairo,” CfaN now started moving north through West Africa and Nigeria with great success and ever larger crowds. However, antiChristian riots in Kano resulted in the ministry being banned from Nigeria until 1999, when once again the door was opened miraculously.

2010’ 2000’

S

CfaN now entered a season of unprecedented growth; the so-called “Millennium Crusade” in Lagos saw the largest crowds the ministry had seen to date, with 1.6 million people in a single service and over 3.4 million decisions for Christ! During this decade Evangelist Bonnke also met with 34 presidents across Africa, of whom a number came to Christ. Towards the end of this decade Evangelist Boonke became increasingly aware of the need to pass on the baton.

S

When Daniel Kolenda joined the ministry it soon became obvious that God had answered his prayers. Guided by the Holy Spirit, Reinhard Bonnke slowly stepped back and handed over the reins. He was 79 when he went to be with the Lord. In his lifetime, CfaN registered just over 79 million decisions for Christ. What a legacy! To God be the glory!

EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

The USA Memorial of Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke

“We will honor him as we carry on with an unconditional love for Jesus, a fearless faith for the miraculous; and an unrelenting passion to preach the Gospel.” — Evangelist Daniel Kolenda JANUARY 4, 2020

On December 7, 2019, Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke, founder of Christ for all Nations, went home to be with the Lord whom he loved and served so devotedly all his life. Since then, from around the world, the tide of thanksgiving for who he was has just kept rising. It is no exaggeration to say that his vision and passion had a huge impact on every person he ever met but he was also a humble man who, though lauded by many and often meeting with people in high places, only ever saw himself as a “simple evangelist preaching the ABC’s of the Gospel.” The USA memorial service took place January 4, 2020 in Orlando, FL, and many came from around the globe to celebrate his life. A veritable “who’s who’’ in the Christian Evangelist Daniel Kolenda - CfaN’s CEO, and President (since 2009) pays tribute to Reinhard Bonnke. The USA memorial service was one of several such events around the world.

who changed the face of Christianity in Africa!” As speaker after speaker from this beloved continent of his spoke, it became evident that this was profoundly true. During his lifetime, from pulpits around the world he had thundered the phrase “Africa shall be saved!” but in later years, as the numbers of salvations grew almost beyond imagining, he changed this to “Africa is BEING saved!” He was 79 when he died. Interestingly, to date CfaN has recorded over 79 million recorded decisions for Christ. His truly was a fruitful life! He said that all he wanted written on his tombstone was “He preached Jesus.” This he did until the day he joined the “great cloud of witnesses,” a giant among men, an unwavering servant of God. n

“I can promise you that the man you saw minister on the platform was the very same genuine man you’d have dinner with at the restaurant. To know him was to love, respect and admire him.” — CfaN VP, Peter Vandenberg JANUARY 4, 2020

But what’s more—and this is really what I want to tell you about— the Lord showed me that these results would come, not simply through addition, but by multiplication. We are going to multiply by training, equipping and launching thousands of evangelists. In fact, we’ve already been doing this on a small scale for the last couple years; and the results we’ve seen have been astonishing.

HAMBURG • GERMANY

A LOVING FAREWELL

Fire19 was a glorious weekend, which saw over 4,000 attendees from all over Europe gathering together to worship and to be inspired. The speakers were Daniel Kolenda, Todd White, Peter Wenz and Peter Vandenberg— with an unforgettable and very special appearance by Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke. This event was an opportunity for Evangelist Bonnke to say a heartfelt thank you and loving farewell to the German mission partners who have been such an important part of the CfaN ministry since its earliest days.

From the very first session, it was clear that God had a great deal to say prophetically to the German church. There was an outpouring of healing on many levels, and each session moved naturally into a time of prayer, ministry and healing. During break times, CfaN mission partners were treated to a 3D virtual reality experience of an African Gospel Campaign. They also had the opportunity to view a Gospel Truck—the vehicles used in our pre-campaign village outreaches—and to speak to Winfried Wentland about life on the road and behind the scenes.

The first Light the Fire Again event in 2018 featured several pastors and evangelists who had been instrumental in the revival in Toronto in the early 90’s. This year’s conference presented many nextgeneration evangelists who are being used to reach the lost for the Kingdom and impart fresh fire from God into thirsty souls. The event featured anointed worship from Jeremy Riddle, Lindy Conant-Cofer and Roy Fields. The teaching and impartation sessions were led by Carlos Annacondia, Carol Arnott, Andy Byrd, Daniela Freidzon, Eric Gilmour, Brian Guerin, Cindy Jacobs, Michael Koulianos, Joshua Mills, Nathan Morris and Daniel Kolenda. Each speaker was mightily used of God. Flames that had grown dim were rekindled, and passions for Jesus were reignited. n

NIGERIA

A REMARKABLE

TRIBUTE to Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke DECEMBER 5–8 • 2019

The last few days of the crusade in Ado Ekiti, Nigeria, were particularly amazing! The power of God moved in a mighty way, touching multitudes of hungry people. However, the fourth and last day marked a truly extraordinary event. It will go down in history as the day one of God’s greatest generals went home.

173,680 R E G I S T E R E D D EC I S I O N S FO R C H R I S T

Daniel Kolenda shared his heart on this memorable day: “When I woke up this morning, I had no idea that my day would end with such a whirlwind of emotion. I have both deep sorrow and great joy. Sorrow because Reinhard Bonnke was more than a great man, powerful preacher and influential leader. To me, he was like a father and one of my dearest friends. The Apostle Paul tells us that such gifts in our life are incredibly rare. ‘Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers…” (1 Cor. 4:15). The sense of loss I feel in this moment is profound. But I am so happy that Evangelist Bonnke has finally entered his eternal reward. He is now with the One that he loved so much and that he lived his whole life to please. I am sure that all of Heaven is rejoicing.” Daniel Kolenda was not by Evangelist Bonnke’s side when he passed away the morning of December 7. Instead, he was on the other side of the world. There is no greater way to honor one of the greatest evangelists that has ever lived, than laboring where he labored—in Africa, preaching the Gospel and leading multitudes into the arms of Jesus.

He left an indelible mark on this continent, and those who’ve served in his ministry are still walking down the trail he forged over many years of faithfully preaching the Gospel.

Over the past year and a half, as part of our vision for a Decade of Double Harvest, Evangelist Daniel Kolenda and the Christ for all Nations team have been training and equipping evangelists who feel called to preach the Gospel in power with the demonstration of miracles, signs and wonders to the masses. To date, we’ve trained over 25 evangelists and have sent them to the mission field of Africa where they’ve conducted hundreds of outreaches in schools, prisons, orphanages and villages, which has resulted in hundreds of thousands of souls coming to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. In addition, incredible miracles have taken place.
