SOS Adventure is a non-profit, evangelistic, missions ministry. We organize massive festivals in the African continent and equip teams to serve alongside us.
The Holy Spirit is our Director and Jesus the love of our lives. We travel through the African frontiers with our hearts set on one thing: To preach the precious message of the Gospel to the lost!
Let’s LIVE THE BOOK OF ACTS.
Let’s REACH THE UNREACHED together.

EYE-WITNESSES
OF UNFORGETTABLE MIRACLES
-
In 1996, Johannes Amritzer and wife Maria traveled through the jungles of Kenya to preach the Gospel to the the Maasai people and other tribes. That became the first of many festivals.
“I was called as an evangelist in the end times to preach the Gospel to unreached people groups, to help bring restoration of the Book of Acts in my generation, and to see the early church being geographically reestablished.” - Johannes Amritzer
What Johannes and Maria started grew like wildfire. They were pioneering a movement that reached across Europe and were preaching the Gospel to unreached tribes in South America, Southeast Asia, India, and many countries on the continent of Africa. They would do whatever needed to be done to see a festival happen. They sold their belongings to generate finances; they preached from platforms that were wooden tables tied together with rope. There were many obstacles to overcome on their journey, but one thing was certain: Signs, wonders, and miracles followed them wherever they went.

Statements of faith:
The Word is infallible
Jesus is God
Man was created good. However, man by voluntary transgression fell and thereby incurred not only physical death but also spiritual death, which is separation from God.
Man's only hope of redemption is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God.
The Holy Spirit is the third head of the Triune God who indwells every individual whose faith is in Jesus.
The Baptism in Holy Spirit and speaking in tongues is power for life and ministry
Signs and Wonders is God’s will for today
The mission is every people group on earth
Staff Core Values:
“BE” SOS
Be Family & Build Big
We are an international, fiercely loyal apostolic family committed to the SOS Adventure vision and each other.
We live in a tension between the call to build a big missions organization with massive impact in the world and our passion to build intimate, disciple-making communities where we live.
Be a missionary
We are relentless about making friends with non-believers and making disciples one-on-one.
We are planted in a local church or building one in our living rooms
We live simple lives
We serve before we lead
We love people, with an extra heart for the wild and underdogs
Be Faithful
We pray a lot, passionately and loud.
We are early risers with a strong devotional life
We listen and obey quickly
We speak faith all the time. We are obnoxious optimistics!
We are men and women of integrity
Be Whole
We make time for family
We exercise and eat well
We make time for Sabbath rest and vacations
We invest on individual interests that are good for the soul
Be Generous
We tithe and give radically to missions
We make our homes available for the needy, our cars are available to be used, we pay into our trips (even SOS related items), and we show radical hospitality. We live with an “open hand.”
Be Super-natural
We believe and preach a full Gospel: Signs, Wonders, The Cross, Water Baptisms, and Baptism in fire with the evidence of speaking in tongues.
We are down to earth and relatable to the world around us, but we walk in the power of God activating all the gifts of the Spirit in our daily lives
We are guided by the voice of the Holy Spirit! We live the Book of Acts!
Be a Finisher
We will finish the great commission by reaching every unreached people group in the world. That’s our aim. Our share of the pie in this enormous task, or better put, our calling and grace to this is in Africa. Africa is our Capernaum, our green house, where the dead come to life! Our blood, sweat and tears is aimed at making Jesus known in this great continent. That's our great commission.
