Chris and Simone Franz launched Christ is the Answer Ministries ("Cita") in 1998. Our ministry is dedicated to reaching people with the gospel and bringing them to full consecration in Christ. Our aim is to reach every nook and cranny with the gospel. That the lost will be found, and the found will burn passionately for God.
In many years of ministry, we have had the opportunity to travel across the globe seeing over 3 million decisions made for Christ in their services. We have traveled throughout North and South America, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Slovakia, Holland, Africa, Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico where millions have received Christ as their Lord and Savior. While our outdoor crusade events are a major part of our ministry, we also want to share a few other projects the Lord directed us to begin.
Hope For Kids - our ministry dedicated to rescuing Ethiopian Street Children. While traveling to our crusades by van in Ethiopia, our hearts began to break for the brokenness that surrounded us. Almost everywhere we went, there were children fighting for survival on the streets. Some as young as three years old already addicted to smelling gasoline from a bottle for some relief. Many dangers face them as they are looked upon by others as the scum of the earth. They are often abused, or stolen by witch doctors dedicating them for a human sacrifice to the devil. Tears flooded our eyes as we saw children getting separated from their siblings. While these children have been rejected by the world, God has a different plan for these kids. When he looks at them, He sees future doctors, evangelists, pastors, social workers, etc. We have opened two hope centers so far dedicated to feeding our children daily, providing clothing for them, giving them proper education, teaching them physically and spiritually, and giving them the medical support they need. and supporting local African missionaries to further spread the gospel. Citalife has also been launched on secular TV in Germany and Florida, where thousands of people are reached every day.
This generation shall be saved. Our mission is to “effectively communicate the message of consecration to every nook and cranny of the world so that the lost will be found and the found will burn passionately for God.”
