German Pentecostal evangelist, Reinhard Bonnke, is dead. He died on Saturday at the age of 79.
Bonnke, who had been an evangelist and missionary in Africa since 1967, recorded 75 million conversions of souls to Christ.

“Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, it is with sorrow that the Bonnke Family would like to announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, and grandfather, Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke.
“He passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family, on December 7, 2019. For the past 60 years he has preached the glorious Gospel of Jesus throughout the entire world.
“We want to thank you on behalf of him and our family, for your kind love and unwavering support, which enabled him to preach the matchless message of salvation to countless people.”
