Invasion of Hope Chetumal was far more than three nights of meetings. On August 13, 14 and 15 we lived something in Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico, that will stay marked in our hearts: a city touched by God.

What happened during those three nights did not begin on a platform. It began months earlier — in prayer, in conversations, in meetings, and in the heart of a Church that decided to walk in unity.

Seven Months of Preparation Behind Invasion of Hope Chetumal

Seven months of work and preparation. Four coordination trips alongside the Invasion of Hope team. Hundreds of hours spent shoulder to shoulder with the pastors, leaders and servants of the city.

In that process we saw God do something deep: He healed hearts, restored relationships and brought unity to the Christian leadership of Chetumal. And when the crusade finally arrived, we were able to see the fruit of it.

That is the part almost nobody photographs. Long before a single light was turned on in the city square, the real work was happening in prayer meetings, in coordination tables and in relationships that had to be rebuilt one conversation at a time.

Three Nights of Hunger and Expectation

For three nights, thousands of people arrived with hunger and expectation. Entire families heard the message of the gospel in the open air.

Hundreds responded to the call to receive Jesus Christ, and many others made the decision to reconcile their lives with God.

Testimonies of Healing and Freedom

We also heard precious testimonies from people who declared they had experienced freedom from panic, depression and anxiety.

Alongside them came testimonies of healing related to deafness, vision problems, asthma, tumors, spine conditions and difficulties in the legs.

Every story reminded us of the same truth: behind every number there is a life, a family and a history that God can transform. You can read more stories like these in our Living Testimonies section.

The Greatest Miracle: A United Church in Chetumal

Perhaps one of the most beautiful miracles of all was seeing the Church of Chetumal united again — serving, praying and believing together for their own city.

It was more than a crusade. It was a true spiritual celebration: a time when faith rose again and hope was renewed, not only inside the Church but also in hundreds of people who came looking for an answer and found an encounter with Jesus.

That same week we also gathered the leaders of the city for Leadership 360 Chetumal, a morning dedicated to vision, strategy and influence for business owners, professionals and authorities. The nights belonged to the whole city; the mornings belonged to those who make decisions over it.

Thank You, Chetumal

To every pastor, church, servant, volunteer, authority, partner and friend who believed, worked and sowed into this vision: thank you.

All the glory belongs to God.

Chetumal was a witness that when the Church unites, prays and proclaims Jesus, hope rises again.

This Is Only the Beginning

Invasion of Hope Chetumal is one more chapter of what God is doing across Latin America. What happened in those three nights does not end with the last night of the crusade: it continues in the local churches, in the new believers who are now being discipled, and in a leadership that learned to work together.

Invasion of Hope Chetumal in Pictures

Leadership 360 Chetumal was a special day of leadership lived on August 14, in the middle of Invasion of Hope Chetumal. At the Hotel Fiesta Inn we gathered more than 40 business owners, entrepreneurs, professionals and leaders from different sectors of society around one theme: vision, strategy and influence.

A Leadership Gathering Inside Invasion of Hope Chetumal

Leadership 360 was born from a simple conviction: a city is not transformed only from a platform. It is also transformed from the offices, the businesses, the classrooms and the institutions where leaders make decisions every single day.

That is why, while the crusade filled the city square at night, we opened a space in the morning for the people who carry responsibility over teams, companies and communities.

Speakers Who Shared Purpose and Influence

We had the participation of leaders such as Dr. Abel Flores and the businessman and entrepreneur Michael Spitsbergen, who shared principles and experiences about leadership, purpose and influence.

Their talks moved between the practical and the personal: how to define a vision that outlives a season, how to turn that vision into a strategy a team can actually execute, and how real influence is built on character long before it is built on a title.

What We Talked About at Leadership 360 Chetumal

• Vision. Defining a direction clear enough to survive pressure, change and criticism.
• Strategy. Turning that vision into decisions, priorities and a plan the team can follow.
• Influence. Leading from integrity and service instead of from position.
• Purpose. Understanding that the place you already lead — a company, an office, a classroom — is also a place of calling.

Leaders, Entrepreneurs and Authorities Around One Table

The gathering was also honored by the presence of authorities and government representatives, a former municipal president, representatives of the religious affairs office, business owners and professionals.

Few things are as powerful as watching the public sector, the private sector and the Church of a city sit at the same table with the same question: what does this city need from us?

In Chetumal, that conversation did not stay theoretical. It happened between people who share the same streets, the same economy and the same responsibility for the next generation.

Why a City Needs Its Leaders

Every city has two conversations running at the same time. One happens in the churches, the homes and the neighborhoods. The other happens in boardrooms, city halls and the places where budgets, jobs and public policy are decided.

Most of the time those two conversations never meet. Leadership 360 Chetumal existed to put them in the same room for one morning, over the same breakfast table, with no agenda other than to listen and to think together about the future of the city.

The format was intentionally simple: a small room, a short number of talks, and enough time left over for the conversations that usually happen after the microphone is turned off. That is where relationships are built, and relationships are what make a citywide effort possible in the first place.

Several of the leaders who sat at those tables went on to serve, invite and support the crusade during the nights that followed. What began as a leadership breakfast ended up multiplying across an entire city.

More Than a Conference

Leadership 360 Chetumal was more than a conference. It was a space to connect vision with action, purpose with strategy, and leadership with influence.

Because when leaders with purpose meet, it is not only people who grow — a city is transformed.

Vision. Strategy. Influence.

That is the heart of Leadership 360, and it is the same heart behind everything we do at Invasion of Hope. The mornings belonged to the leaders of the city; the nights belonged to the whole city at Invasion of Hope Chetumal, where thousands gathered for three nights of hope.

If you lead a company, a ministry or an institution and you want to bring a gathering like this to your own city, you can write to us through our contact page, walk with us as a partner, or stand with the mission through our Prayer Network.

United for a Great Harvest

Spain Is Ready for a Move of God!

In June, Evangelist Elías Annacondia traveled to Madrid, Spain, to take part in strategic meetings with leaders from the Global Evangelists Alliance as part of the growing Everyone Spain initiative.

Everyone Spain is a nationwide movement that seeks to unite churches, pastors, evangelists, and Christian ministries around one shared vision: to see Spain reached with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Building Unity for an Evangelistic Movement

During the trip, meetings were held with pastors, key leaders, and ministry representatives from across the country. These conversations focused on presenting the vision, strengthening relationships, and encouraging greater collaboration within the evangelistic community.

The vision extends far beyond a single event. Preparations are already underway for large-scale evangelistic initiatives planned for 2027 and 2028. We believe these efforts will not only make an impact in Spain, but will also serve as a catalyst for carrying the message of Christ throughout Europe.

Everyone Spain!

One of the most encouraging aspects of the trip was seeing the growing desire among churches to work together in unity.

Rather than promoting individual ministries, the focus remains on advancing the Kingdom of God through cooperation, prayer, and evangelism.

Scripture Reminds Us

“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” — Psalm 133:1

Please join us in prayer for:

• Continued unity among pastors and leaders.
• Wisdom as long-term plans are developed.
• Open doors throughout Spain and Europe.
• A spiritual awakening that will lead many people to Christ.

We believe God is preparing something significant, and we are grateful that you are part of this journey through your faithful prayers and generous support.

Spain Will Be Saved

Spain will be saved. Europe will hear the Gospel. Jesus will be proclaimed.

“For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.” — Romans 8:19

Christ is alive—and Europe belongs to Him!

Chetumal, Quintana Roo, Mexico. With a profound sense of unity and expectation, more than 1,200 people—including pastors, leaders, churches, and ministry workers—gathered for the Night of Fire and Intercession, a historic time of prayer and consecration in preparation for the great “Invasion of Hope Chetumal” Evangelistic Crusade, which will take place from August 13 to 15.

The atmosphere was marked by a shared desire: to seek the face of God and prepare the way for a powerful manifestation of His presence. Churches from different denominations united as one body to intercede for the city, believing that God will bring a season of salvation, healing, freedom, and restoration to thousands of people.

Throughout the gathering, the church responded enthusiastically to the call to serve. Hundreds of volunteers reaffirmed their commitment to be part of this great mission, preparing to welcome and minister to every person who arrives in need of hope. It was evident that God is not only preparing an event—He is raising up a united, equipped, and committed church devoted to the Great Commission.

We believe the ground has been prepared and hearts are ready. After months of prayer, coordination, and collaboration among local churches, we can see how God has brought people together and awakened a shared vision to reach Chetumal with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

From August 13 to 15, Evangelist Elías Annacondia, together with the Invasion of Hope team and guest ministries, will lead a series of evening gatherings where we believe thousands of people will encounter the transforming power of Jesus. These will be nights of salvation, healing, freedom, and restoration, where the Gospel will be proclaimed with clarity, love, and power.

This prayer gathering was much more than a meeting. It was a declaration of faith from a Church that has chosen to walk in unity, believe for the impossible, and prepare the way for God to be glorified throughout the region.

Chetumal is ready. The Church is united. And we believe that God’s best for this city is yet to come.

With deep gratitude, we share what God did in the mountains of Ocosingo, Chiapas, during March 27–28.

This was not a typical crusade. It was a move of God in the villages.

From different parts of the region, people began to arrive. Individuals from more than 39 communities and four different cities gathered with one purpose: to encounter Jesus.

Some traveled 6, 7, and even 8 hours. Some drove more than 12 hours… others walked from their villages.

We also saw people arrive from Quintana Roo, Guatemala, and the state of Puebla.

The hunger for God was evident. It was tangible. More than 7,200 people gathered each night during these days, where God moved in a powerful way.

Nights of salvation, healing, and freedom

The Gospel was preached with clarity and power.
And Jesus was glorified.

We saw lives saved.
Hearts restored.
People reconciled with God.

A testimony that says it all

Among many miracles, one deeply impacted everyone. A one-and-a-half-year-old girl had suffered a severe fall, hitting her head. She entered a critical coma and remained in that condition for a week. Doctors were clear: in her state—immobile and on a respirator—she had only a few days left to live.

In the midst of that situation, evangelist Elías Annacondia prayed for her over the phone. And God intervened.

The next day, the girl began to move. She began to respond. She began to speak. She went from a critical coma… to a state of recovery. Three days later, she was discharged from the hospital.

Jesus Christ performed a miracle—not only in the girl, but in her entire family.

Beyond what is visible

What happened in Ocosingo does not end with those days.

We believe God has ignited something in the region.
A living faith.
An active Church.
A transformed people.

This does not end here. This is only the beginning.

Jesus Christ lives… and continues transforming lives today!

With deep gratitude, we share what God did in Puerto Vilelas during the nights of January 22–24, 2026.

What happened was not just a crusade… it was a turning point for an entire city. Located near Resistencia, this community became the setting for a powerful move of God. But before the crowds arrived, something key was already happening: the unity of the Church.

Pastors from Vilelas and southern Resistencia set aside their differences and walked together with one cry: to see Jesus transform their region.
And God responded.

A city hungry for God

From the very first night, the place began to fill. But it wasn’t curiosity… it was spiritual hunger.

People of all ages came searching for something more. And the presence of God became evident.

Each night grew in intensity, faith, and expectation. And the Gospel was proclaimed with power.

Testimonies of His Power

What we witnessed cannot be explained with words alone.

On the first night, a child with a malformation in his legs, who could barely walk, was brought forward during prayer.
In front of everyone, as prayer was made in the name of Jesus… the power of God touched him.
He began to move normally. He walked correctly. Astonishment filled the place. Joy erupted in the crowd.

On the second night, a woman with a malignant tumor in her neck received prayer. And at that very moment… the tumor disappeared.
Jesus is still working miracles. Here. Today!!!!

Beyond the visible miracles

But the deepest impact was not only what was seen… it was what happened in hearts.

On the final night, a multitude responded to the call of salvation.
People who had never made a decision for Jesus took that step.

Others were restored. Reconciled with God.

• We saw tears.
• We saw freedom.
• We saw salvation.

What’s next

We believe God is activating the local Church for what is to come.

This does not end with a campaign. It continues in every church.
In every disciple. In every transformed life.

CHRIST LIVES… AND CHACO BELONGS TO HIM!

November 20–21–22

In the heart of northeastern Brazil, the city of Piripiri, Piauí, witnessed a genuine move of God. What began as a call to faith turned into nights where the presence of Jesus became tangible and the Gospel was proclaimed with authority.

From the very first night, crowds came with spiritual hunger—entire families, young people, children, and the elderly—all responding to the same need: a real encounter with God. And He responded.

During each gathering, we saw the power of the Gospel in action. People gave their lives to Christ, the sick testified of healing, and many experienced freedom from bondages that had held them captive for years. It wasn’t only what happened on the platform; it was what took place in every heart.

The unity of the local Church was key. Pastors and leaders walked together with one purpose, preparing the ground in prayer and extending their hands to serve the city. When the Church unites, heaven responds—and in Piripiri, we saw it.

Impact that goes beyond numbers

• Crowds reached during the crusade nights
• Decisions of faith every night
• Testimonies of healing and restoration
• Local churches strengthened and mobilized

Behind every number, there is a name, a story, a life now walking in hope.

A story that says it all

Among many testimonies, one reflects what God did in Piripiri. A woman who had lived for years with constant physical pain arrived with little hope. In the midst of prayer, she felt a deep peace and immediate restoration. Today, she walks free from pain, with new faith and a renewed purpose.

Another testimony is of a young man who had a motorcycle accident two years ago. After multiple surgeries, he was unable to walk properly. On the second night, the Lord Jesus touched his life, and instantly he was healed. All immobility and pain disappeared for the glory of God.

We want to honor every church, pastor, and volunteer who sowed faithfully. Your service, dedication, and faith were an essential part of what God did. This fruit is shared.

We are deeply grateful for the incredible work God accomplished during the “AWAKENING A MOVEMENT OF UNITY AND POWER” conference, held in collaboration with the COUNCIL OF EVANGELICAL CHURCHES OF THE STATE OF CHIAPAS. We thank the state pastoral board, each pastor and spouse who attended, every leader, and each speaker who brought a message from heaven.

We held a conference where over 1,300 pastors and leaders from across Chiapas came together to witness a move of the Holy Spirit. In Tuxtla Gutierrez, the capital of Chiapas, more than 650 pastors and 700 leaders from all over the state gathered, from Tapachula to Ocosingo, and from Tonala to Pichucalco. More than 14 different communities and cities across the state took part in this event.

With international speakers, Pastor Joe Briseño, Pastor David Remedes, Pastor Luis Marroquin, and Evangelist Elias Annacondia, we saw a tremendous move of God as His presence filled every moment, igniting hearts and empowering His servants. The unity we witnessed in this gathering is only the beginning of what we believe will be a continuous wave of salvation and glory. (John 17:18-22)

As we look ahead to 2025, the unity of the state’s pastoral councils and our hearts are filled with expectation for an even greater manifestation of God’s power and glory. We stand firm in faith, anticipating that 2025 will be a transformative year, where the seeds planted in this conference bear abundant fruit in the lives and ministries of all who participated.

Stay connected and keep praying for this movement of INVASION OF HOPE as we continue to pursue God’s vision to reach all of Chiapas.

Together in Jesus Christ, we will see His glory!
