The Hope Is Jesus

IIWPR — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 12:33:46 -0500

12,276 People Baptized in Bolivia After a Record 2,240 Evangelistic Meetings

Throughout the first part of 2007, churches all across the Bolivian Union worked in concert to produce something spectacular for God: The Hope Is Jesus. All across the nation, laypeople linked arms with the clergy to bring the gospel of Christ to their neighborhoods. As a result, more than 2,240 evangelistic meetings were held across the country.

The effort came to a peak in April, when It Is Written participated in a weeklong series of reaping meetings. For eight nights, I had the privilege of preaching to thousands of people who had gathered in hundreds of auditoriums to watch The Hope Is Jesus as it was broadcast live from the auditorium at the Adventist University of Cochabamba. For eight nights, we explained the essentials of the Christian faith and called people to make decisions for Christ.
