About STEMI
Stephen Tong Evangelistic Ministries International (STEMI) was founded in 1979 by Rev. Dr. Stephen Tong. Rather than being tied to a single local denomination, STEMI is an international parachurch organization committed to theological and cultural renewal.
Throughout decades of ministry, STEMI has reached students, parents, professionals, and church leaders through national evangelism seminars, global youth conventions, and major citywide gospel rallies.
Guided by the Holy Spirit, Rev. Tong began preaching at age 17. Through STEMI rallies, countless thousands have turned to Christ and committed their lives to full-time Christian service.
STEMI operates independently of state funding or corporate sponsorships, sustained solely by Christians who share this evangelistic vision for the next generation.

About the Gospel Rallies
In an era where the true message of repentance is frequently forgotten, the gospel proclaims that reconciliation with God is found solely through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. His sacrifice delivers sinners from bondage into holy adoption as children of God.
Genuine repentance leads believers to deny themselves, take up their cross, and walk in holiness with the eternal hope of life in Christ, proclaiming the good news to all nations.
Across hundreds of cities worldwide, these rallies have ignited spiritual awakenings. We pray that every attendee will come to know and receive Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.
