Speed the Light (STL) is the student-initiated ministry that provides
transportation and communications equipment to missionaries across the nation
and in over 150 countries around the world.
STL has its humble beginnings in 1944 when Ralph W. Harris (then head of the
NYD), prayed for a way to give A/G youth the opportunity to help missionaries
in their work.
Today, STL is one of the most effective missions programs in the church world.
Assemblies of God students have accepted a great responsibility to voluntarily
raise funds to purchase the equipment. Since its inception, STL has raised
over $200,000,000 for missionary equipment around the world.
Speed the Light has one guiding principle: All assistance must go to purchase
equipment directly related to evangelism ("evangelism" is defined as
propagating the gospel and instructing converts). STL equipment has not been
nor is presently given for promotion, solicitation, or normal administrative
funds.
