Did you know that of the 6.9 billion people in the world, two-thirds have no relationship with Christ. In 2004, the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod and its 29 partner and sister churches worldwide began an effort to reach 100 million of these people by 2017. This movement is based on the Gospel of Jesus Christ who instructed us to "Go and make disciples of all nations". To carry out this mission, the "Fan Into Flame" campaign was initiated in 2004 to raise $100 million to help the Ablaze movement reach its goals. You can learn more about both of these initiatives at the Fan Into Flame website.
