We’re thrilled to share a remarkable milestone with you!
Join us in celebrating the groundbreaking 5th anniversary of the Oikos Initiative—a bold expedition to embrace 9 billion souls with Jesus’s message of love by 2038.
Since 1946, Every Home for Christ has been on an incredible mission, turning dreams into reality by spreading the knowledge of Jesus’s love worldwide. We’ve overcome barriers and reached the farthest corners of the earth, using ingenuity and cutting-edge technology to share the gospel.
The launch of the Oikos Initiative in 2019 marked a new era of innovation. We harnessed the power of digital media, creative events, and heartfelt outreach to marginalized communities.
Our goal? To ensure Jesus’s message of love resonates in every home and touches every heart.
Take a journey through the first 5 years of Oikos below!

The year 2020 brought challenges, but our commitment remained unshaken. Our continuing work through the COVID-19 pandemic became a testament to our resilience and creativity. We pivoted to sharing the gospel through radio, television, and online platforms. Our teams, filled with compassion, extended beyond spiritual needs, providing assistance, health education, and crucial supplies to those in crisis, all while radiating Jesus’s unwavering love.
“I thought we were too far from God. On the greatest of all days, new people appeared. I saw smiles on their faces. I knew they had good news for us. The story of Jesus was sweeter than our grandmother’s stories. We, the people of the mountain, have received Jesus Christ. It’s true, God loves everyone.”
