Not just COVID-19 has exponential growth. The Gospel does too.
AE’s home-based evangelism strategy encourages individuals across Africa to make use of their own social networks to share the Gospel. So far, over 2,500 people have been trained to share their personal testimonies via social media.
Nancy from the African Enterprise Kenya team has been so passionate about this opportunity that she’s shared the Gospel with over 300 people!
In Africa, amongst people so passionate for the Gospel, there truly is an exponential impact. Like no other place on earth, this passion has seen our young evangelists preach in buses, hospitals, marketplaces and wherever they find themselves.
This is why, in the past year, we saw 1.3 million people reached with the good news of Jesus in Africa.
Even during lockdown, people are trying to make sense of what is happening, and are still so receptive to the Gospel. Together, we aim to reach 900,000 people and train 6,000 evangelists to reach out in a COVID-safe way. Even during these times, we estimate that for every dollar we receive, we are able to reach at least three people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
This is all through the efforts of 11 small teams based across Africa, who multiply the Gospel’s impact by mobilising churches, volunteers and evangelists to reach into their cities in unity and strength. This is the way that we will grow the Kingdom of Heaven. As yeast makes its way through dough. Or as seed sown in good soil. The potential for growth is boundless.
“May He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness”
(2 Corinthians 9:10)
