About us
How we started
We are Matheo and Hannah (Lory) Wentland. Our love for Jesus and our passion for sharing the Gospel with others brought us together. Since the day we met, we have been wholeheartedly pursuing Jesus, sharing His love, His Word, and inspiring others to live a life of passionate discipleship.
When Matheo and Hannah Lorraine – known as Lory – met, Lory had just finished Bible school, while Matheo was working in industry at Bosch and leading the house-church network in his city at the same time.
What connected them was their shared passion to proclaim the Gospel. Each was struck by how radically and uncompromisingly the other followed Jesus, and they quickly discovered a shared heart for mission.
Together they planted a house church and even travelled to a Muslim country to plant house churches there. It became clear early on that they wanted to align not only their everyday lives but also their marriage with Jesus and His mission.
So they deliberately chose Philippians 1:27 as the verse for their marriage:
"Then you will stand together with one mind. You will fight side by side for the faith that is founded on the Gospel."
PHILIPPIANS 1:27
Just before their wedding, God opened a new door: together they were able to go on mission trips with Christ for all Nations. In their first year of marriage they spent six months in Zambia, where they organised a large evangelisation for Christ for all Nations.
That time let them get to know the mission field in a completely new way. Their passion for mission kept growing, and finally they made a far-reaching decision: they quit their jobs, gave up their flat, and began to lead mission projects abroad continuously for several years.
At first they were intensively guided and accompanied, until step by step they could take on more and more responsibility. In a short time they experienced God strengthening their faith, widening their abilities, and leading them into new assignments.
Together they completed the Christ for all Nations Bootcamp, where they finally received the vision to start their own ministry and to give themselves fully to this calling.
Since then more people have become part of the team. What began as the shared passion of two people is growing into a mission family that pursues God's vision together and reaches for people, cities, and nations to encounter Jesus.

Our vision
Our vision is that people, cities, and every nation would encounter Jesus – through the clear proclamation of the Gospel and a lifestyle shaped by the Spirit of God, in holiness and surrender as we follow Jesus.
"Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."
1 CORINTHIANS 10:31
The name
Our heart is that every nation on earth would hear about Jesus and worship Him, because He is worthy.
"Whatever happens, I will continue to hope and passionately cling to Christ, so that He will be openly revealed through me before everyone."
Philippians 1:20
Lands for Jesus is a spiritual family. The work grows through relationships, local partnerships, and house churches.
Accountability
We stand under mentors and covering
We believe in accountability, in being willing to be corrected, and in growing continuously. That is why for over ten years we have been accompanied, trained, and supported by personal mentors from our house-church network and by Christ for all Nations, through very different seasons of our life and ministry.

How we walk together
Mission team
With great joy we introduce our team: people from different nations, united by a deep love for Jesus and a burning passion for the Gospel. What binds us is not only fellowship, but a shared story on the street, where we see God at work when we live and pass on His call. Side by side we serve, carrying the Gospel into the world with fire, faith, and devotion.
Prayer team
They were there when it got hard: during a break-in in Africa, with malaria, during an emergency landing, with a refused visa, and in heavy homesickness. Our prayer team is there, praying, believing, carrying. They also celebrate the victories with us: every open door, every provision, every miracle, every decision to follow Jesus. They stand with us in the battle and in the joy. “Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6)
Discipleship
Behind all the projects, our heart beats for one thing: real discipleship. Our aim is not only to organise events. We want to share life. Graduates of CfaN trainings (FireCamps, the School of Evangelism, Bootcamp) join us on assignments around the world. They are guided, trained, and given real responsibility, on the street and in organising mission trips. We live with them like family, walk through highs and lows together, and watch them grow in their calling. Online, too, we invest as mentors and walk with young evangelists.
