Evangelist Lance Alves is the founder and president of Alves Ministries, based in Tulsa, Oklahoma. With over 20 years of ministry experience, he serves alongside his wife, Heather, and their five children in passionately pursuing a God-given mission to reach the 426 million unreached people in Africa who have never heard the Gospel.
A former missionary who lived in Africa, Lance has served in various roles including outreach, youth, and children's pastor. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, he has developed mobile stage trucks to bring the Gospel into remote regions and has preached to over a million people through radio and television.
Lance graduated from Capital Bible College and also attended Trinity Bible College, where he deepened his foundation in theology and ministry. With a heart for innovation and a passion for aviation, he is currently pursuing multiple pilot certifications through Cessna Flight Center in Sacramento and King Schools—using it as another means to bring the Gospel to the ends of the earth.
