Freetown is brimming with excitement as world-renowned Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills arrives today, April 29, 2025, ahead of the much-anticipated Healing Jesus Campaign, set to run from April 29 to May 3, 2025.
The capital city of Sierra Leone is poised for a spiritual awakening, with thousands of attendees expected to gather at the Freetown Polytechnic Field in Jui (formerly Freetown Teachers College) for five nights of miracles, healing, deliverance, and salvation.
Organized in collaboration with the Body of Christ in Sierra Leone, the campaign has received powerful endorsements from spiritual fathers, mothers, and leading figures across various denominations in the country. This groundswell of support has further amplified expectations for a transformative week of ministry.
The Healing Jesus Campaign is a non-denominational event, open to individuals of all backgrounds and faiths, and aims to foster spiritual revival and unity within the nation.
Leading the crusade is Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills, a trained medical doctor who has devoted more than two decades to full-time ministry. Founder of the United Denominations Originating from the Lighthouse Group of Churches (UDOLGC) a network comprising over 4,000 churches worldwide Heward-Mills has preached in 38 countries across more than 250 campaigns since launching the Healing Jesus Campaign in 2004. His evangelistic efforts have resulted in over 10.5 million recorded decisions for Christ.
He is also a prolific author, with more than 100 Christian books translated into 58 languages, and serves on major international Christian platforms such as the Pentecostal World Fellowship and Church Growth International.
The week-long program includes:
- Five nights of open-air crusades (April 29 – May 3) at the Freetown Polytechnic Field in Jui, beginning at 5:00 PM nightly, featuring worship, gospel preaching, and healing services.
- A three-day Pastors and Leaders Conference (April 30 – May 2) from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Flaming Evangelical Ministries on Syke Street, Freetown.
For the Pastors and Leaders Conference, participants must register. Two registration options are available: a Standard Registration for 50 Leones, granting conference access, and a Makarios Registration for 600 Leones, which includes access plus 50 books authored by Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills.
Notably, the five nights of open-air crusades remain free and open to the public.
Organizers have emphasized that the campaign will be a time of divine visitation. Testimonies from previous campaigns across Africa highlight miraculous healings, deliverance from oppression, and deep spiritual transformation.
“The Healing Jesus Campaign is about more than miracles; it’s about healing communities and reviving the soul of the nation,” said a spokesperson for the organizing committee. “It’s an opportunity for Sierra Leone to experience a wave of spiritual renewal.”
Faith leaders across the country have warmly embraced the event. Rev. Samuel Bangura, a prominent pastor in Freetown, described it as “a national blessing” and called on all citizens to participate. “This is a chance for Sierra Leone to encounter God in a powerful way,” he said.
Individuals, families, churches, and seekers are all invited to attend, with organizers encouraging everyone to come with faith and expectancy.
“Come expecting a miracle. Come expecting healing. Come expecting salvation,” Evangelist Dag Heward-Mills urged in a statement. “Jesus is ready to meet you right where you are.”
Freetown is ready—and hope is in the air.
