In 1983, the \u201cFriday for Christ\u201d evangelism campaign was launched in the Finnish capital, Helsinki. It brought together hundreds of Christians to spread the gospel in many different ways in the metropolitan area. Contrary to many doubts, the activities continued year after year and eventually expanded into a significant missionary organization on three different continents, Asia, Africa and Europe.<\/p>

It all started with a vision given by the Holy Spirit. It showed that nothing is impossible\nwhen you set out on your work dependent on God\u2019s power and help.<\/p>

The mission organization One Way Mission was born completely out of nothing and grew\nwithout any financial support or help from any denomination or state.<\/p>

Everything that One Way Mission founder Tapani Suonto has experienced over the\ndecades is possible for anyone and anywhere. Even a small person can have a strong\nimpact even on the other side of the world when they set out in the guidance and power of\nthe Holy Spirit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

VISION<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Tapani Suonto has set out again and founded the \u201cFishermen\u00b4s International Network\u201d (FIN).<\/p>

The network offers support and opportunities to everyone who wants to experience what Jesus said: \u201cFollow me and I will make you fishers of men.\u201d Alone we are weak, but together we can achieve much when we support each other. \u201cFollow me, and I will make you fishers of men.\u201d<\/i> Individually we are weak, but together, by supporting each other, we can accomplish great things.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Tapani Suonto says:

\"For decades I have observed the enormous needs and opportunities in evangelism and missionary work that remain unused. There are millions of Christians in the world who could be a great blessing both in their own homeland and in distant mission fields, but they only sit in the pews of their churches, feeling unnecessary. They must be helped to step forward under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and act for the good of their neighbors both in their homeland and in distant mission fields.\"<\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
