Pastor Felito’s motto is “that none should perish.” It is his utmost passion in life to see every nation, tribe, and tongue come to know Jesus. This evangelistic fire drives him to reach out to the darkest, hardest, and most unreached areas and nations. Felito comes from a family of ministers and began preaching the Gospel himself at the age of 17. He received formal training at Catch the Fire School of Ministry in Toronto, IRIS Ministry in Mozambique, and South African Theological Seminary. During his time with IRIS Ministries, Felito served as the Outreach Director, being part of this great Ministry, he spearheaded an historic revival in the Northern Muslim provinces of Mozambique. This revival saw blind eyes opened, dear ears hearing, thousands of salvations, miraculous healing, deliverance to the oppressed, and the gift of freedom only Jesus can bring. He has ministered in many countries on 5 continents, has planted churches throughout Mozambique, Africa, and does two crusades a month. In everything he does, Felito is motivated by his passion to see people come to know Christ’s love.
