Speed the Light
Dunamis Student Ministry gave and raised over $7,000 last year for Speed the Light and our new goal for this year is $15,000! We know that with God's help this is possible! So far, through the month of February, we have given over $2,500!
The students here are incredible! We have a Speed the Light service in youth the first Wednesday of every month. The 1st one in February, the students gave $598! The 1st Wednesday in March they gave $191! These are teenagers who have captured God's heart for missions!
Speed the Light (STL) is the student-initiated ministry that provides transportation and communications equipment to missionaries across the nation and in over 150 countries around the world.
STL has its humble beginnings in 1944 when Ralph W. Harris (then head of the NYD), prayed for a way to give A/G youth the opportunity to help missionaries in their work.
Today, STL is one of the most effective missions programs in the church world. Assemblies of God students have accepted a great responsibility to voluntarily raise funds to purchase the equipment. Since its inception, STL has raised a total of $207,095,428.74 for missionary equipment around the world.
Speed the Light has one guiding principle: All assistance must go to purchase equipment directly related to evangelism ("evangelism" is defined as propagating the gospel and instructing converts). STL equipment has not been nor is presently given for promotion, solicitation, or normal administrative funds.
