Raising a Generation for Christ⦠Winning Souls, Transforming Lives across communities and nations.
Christ Soul Winners International Outreach Ministry was birthed out of a divine mandate to proclaim the unsearchable riches of Christ to every soul.
THE VISION
The time has come for the streets of Ebira Land to be filled with people singing the praises of Jesus Christ, and for this revival to spread throughout Nigeria and ultimately to the ends of the earth.
God called Christ Soul Winners International Outreach Ministry to raise and equip a great assembly of believers committed to winning souls for His Kingdom.
This divine mandate is anchored in Haggai 2:4β10, where God calls His people to be strong, work faithfully, and trust His promise of greater glory.
HOW IT STARTED
The vision was conceived in December 2001 through a divine revelation.
God revealed a large gathering of predominantly young people filling the streets of Ebira Landβnot for traditional masquerade festivals, but for Jesus Christ.
Following this revelation, the ministry embraced God's assignment and began taking practical steps toward fulfilling the vision.
The very first outreach programme was held on Christmas Day under the theme:
CHRISTMASS DINNER
Young people gathered to share a meal, enjoy fellowship, and hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The programme took place at the residence of Brother Isaac in OhuetaβIkuehi, Ihima, Kogi State.
From the very beginning, the ministry combined conventional and innovative evangelistic strategies. Although the Christmas Dinner evangelism concept was initially considered unconventional, it soon proved to be an effective means of reaching many people with the Gospel.
THE NAME
During the ministry's second year of operation, members prayerfully agreed to adopt the name:
Christ Soul Winners
The name reflects the ministry's divine mandateβto win souls for Jesus Christ.

Since its inception, dedicated servant leaders have faithfully advanced the ministry's vision.

Today, the ministry operates through three mission zones, providing greater coordination for evangelism, discipleship, leadership development, and humanitarian outreach.
Though birthed with a burden for Ebira Land, God has continually expanded the ministry's assignment to Nigeria and the nations of the world.
To raise a generation of spirit-filled believers passionate about soul winning, holy living, and kingdom expansion across all nations.
