The Fushe Kruje Miracle

Rick Allen

A 360Go team of men, led by Dan Kersten, ministered in Albania last October. Their ministry assignment was to canvass neighborhoods, invite people to a barbecue event at a local church, feed anyone who came, and then share the gospel.

On the trip, a powerful miracle took place. The people came to taste American barbecue but also had a chance to taste Living Water. At least 35 people stood to accept Jesus as Lord! Such a response to the gospel message in Albania is a miracle.

Albanians are traditionally Muslims, so they don't usually visit Christian churches. But the MEN wanted to taste American barbecue! They loved it, and they brought their families the next night.

In 2024, Light for the Lost provided many missionaries with evangelism resources worldwide in print, video, audio, internet tech, and app platforms. Without you, untold thousands of people would not have been reached with the gospel this past year. May God bless you as we continue serving the King.

Sustaining the Harvest in Africa

Dan Kersten
Director of Communications for LFTL and Men's Ministry.

Explosive and exponential church growth in Africa demands a new concerted effort to help sustain this incredible soul harvest before it is lost due to lack of doctrinal stewardship or a loss of Pentecostal and evangelistic identity.

Currently, more than 84,000 African Assemblies of God churches dot the landscape of the continent. An increasing number of national churches there number their members or adherents in the millions. Additionally, more national churches such as Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria, and Burkina Faso are sending fully-supported missionaries to other nations.

Providing necessary supplies to those in Africa thanks to LFTL funds.

But the incredible soul harvest on the African continent could be diluted or even lost if churches fail to maintain spiritual and doctrinal health.

"In the African context, when a church does not focus on its [spiritual] health, it remains at the very basic level of preaching and teaching only on salvation," says Dr. Greg Beggs, Africa Regional Director for Assemblies of God World Missions. "They need to be able to grow their people beyond that, around the functions of the church, and begin to teach and preach on those functions."

Unfortunately, less than one in four African pastors have adequate physical resources to effectively disciple believers to go beyond the basic teachings of sin and salvation.

Light for the Lost is partnering with Africa Region to help provide printed Acts 2 Journey resources in the major languages of Africa. These resources will lead pastors and their churches through a process of spiritual renewal, revitalization, and increased evangelistic practice.
