German evangelist, Reinhard Bonnke, is dead.
The family, via his official Facebook page, said that Bonnke passed away peacefully in the company of his relatives on Saturday.
“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,” read the statement.
Born in 1940, the late son of an army logistics officer touched many
lives through his gospel missions especially in Africa where he served
as both an evangelist and a missionary in Africa since 1967.
In 1974, he founded the mission organisation and ministry Christ For
All Nations which was initially based in South Africa but later on moved
to Frankfurt at the height of apartheid rule.
