EHC is a prayer-based global mission focussed on the spread of the gospel to people everywhere.

For nearly 80 years EHC has mobilized Christians on every continent to pray for lost people and for the spread of the gospel of Christ. As a result, millions of hours of prayer have been poured out for the world and the impact has been astounding. Over 2.6 billion homes have received a gospel message, and more than 300 million people have contacted an EHC office, asking to know more about Jesus.

In some of the highly restricted nations of the world, God has made a way for the gospel and testimonies of new life in Christ continue to come in from these high-risk places.

The New Testament says that people who are separate from Christ are perishing and without hope in the world. (2 Corinthians 4:2; Ephesians 2:12)

We must pray for them.

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honoured, just as it was with you.” – 2 Thessalonians 3:1
