GREETINGS FRIENDS! Thank you for visiting. Please take a few minutes and read the following desciption of our ministry. We believe you will see the urgent need and tremendous potential of what God has called us to. We believe you will be excited to be a part of this practical but powerful answer to one of the greatest challenges the Church has ever faced.

THE CHALLENGE:
The East Africa Revival Network is an initiative to prevent the people of East Africa from falling behind an Islamic Curtain. And we need your help.

After World War II an Iron Curtain of Atheistic Communism fell over the peoples of Europe. Churches were closed, Christian leaders were imprisoned, practicing Christians were persecuted in innumerable ways and there could be no open proclamation of the Gospel. Two generations of young Europeans were effectively 'lost' to the Kingdom of God.

Islam is growing fast in Africa. Already more than 50% of the inhabitants of Africa are Muslim. It has been stated and echoed again and again by Muslim leaders that Africa will become the first "Islamic Continent". They are very serious about this. The Iranians, Libyans, the Saudis,and many other members of the 57 nation Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) are pouring many millions of dollars into African nations to build mosques, Islamic schools, clinics and to support a literal army of Islamic teachers and preachers. East Africa (Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and the Eastern Congo) is a priority target for Islamic takeover because of it's poverty and the ancient roots of Arab businessmen here Tanzania is alreaddy more than 30% Muslim, the tipping point for domination is about 40%.

THE VISION:
At a Jerusalem Conference of church leaders Bishop Alexis Bilindabagabo was approached by two Tanzanian leaders who said, "You there in Eastern Rwanda still have revival. The churches in the path of the Islamic takeover in Tanzania are weak, worldly, or fractured. Can't you come over and help us before the Muslims takeover? Otherwise Christians wll become a persecuted minority."

Bishop Alexis had experienced cruel ethnic persecution in Rwanda and had been forced to be a refugee from his own country three times. He heard their cry and prayed. Then he invited these two Tanzanian leaders to the East Africa Revival Convention held in his Gahini Diocese each year and by faith announced God had raised up 18 laymen who were experience and committed evangelists to send to Tanzania to work with the churches there that are directly confronted by the Islamic Invasion. Out of this was born the Vision for an inter-denominational, international ministry of partners that would enlarge and accelerate the Mission to confront the Islamic Challenge with a revival of an evangelistic, missionary, church planting spirit.

THE PLAN:
Our plan envsions a bold parntership between committed supporters like yourself, whose prayers, finacnial support, and occasional visits and experienced African lay missionary/evangelists who will go to strategic areas for a minumum of two years to evangelize, teach, pray, and impart revival and church planting vision. The first team of 18 volunteers has already been on the ground for nine months and is sending back tremendous reports. Existing chuches are having to build new buildings to accomodate growth and two new churches have already been built in contested areas.

There are men with the fire of the East Africa Revival burning in their heart who have caught the vision. They are willing to leave their farms and their famiies for two years to labor in difficult and potentially dangerous ministry. God has given us a team of Directors and Advisors who have years of training, expertise, and experience in all vtal areas. NOW WE NEED YOU TO PARTNER WITH US TO MAKE THE VISION A REALITY. The first team of 18 missionary/evangelists was sent to Tanzania by faith. To sustain them and their families in Rwanda, to train, send, and support addtional teams is going to require your help. This is an exciting opportunity to pray, give, and go in vital, God-given vision.

Let's do something now, before another nation falls behind the Islamic Curtain.
