Evangelist Johannes Amritzer

Founder of Mission SOS

Johannes Amritzer and his wife Maria are the founders and apostolic leaders of the SOS Movement. They live and breathe the “Book of Acts” kind of lifestyle and Johannes never misses an opportunity to preach the good news of Jesus to anyone. Whether it be in rural Africa or busy Europe, it makes no difference to him, he finds a way to present Jesus in the best way possible.

Nowadays you usually find him on the African continent where the ministry he started almost 30 years ago reaches hundreds of thousands with the gospel every year and see crippled walk, mute speak and deaf hear. He loves a good laugh with friends, hunting in all parts of the world and he is deadly in a card game!

Mamadou Karambiri

Founder of the international center for evangelization and african interior mission

Pastor Mamadou Philippe Karambiri is a visionary spiritual leader and the founder of the International Center for Evangelization – African Interior Mission. Born on March 7, 1947, in Tougan, Burkina Faso, into a Muslim background, his life was transformed during his studies in financial economics at the University of Toulouse in France, where he had a decisive encounter with the Christian faith.

After a career in the high administration of Burkina Faso, he answered the call to pastoral ministry and founded the ministry in 1987 with his family, establishing a work that extends far beyond national borders and continues to inspire generations through prayer, biblical teaching, and a strong commitment to the proclamation of the Gospel.

It is a time to refocus on our calling: carrying the most extraordinary message this world has ever known, the Good News of the Gospel, both to our cities and to the ends of the earth.

    The adventurous life we see in the book of Acts isn’t a relic of the past, nor is it limited to certain places in the world today. It’s a reality—here and now in Europe! Are you ready to step into it? Join us at the ACT Conference 2026 and embark on the adventure of a lifetime!
