Michel Kenmogne (IFES Chair) writes: \u201cThe history of the advance of the gospel throughout the world over the last four decades cannot be written without mentioning Daniel Bourdann\u00e9. Daniel is one of those contemporaries who, with the Apostle Paul, could humbly say with conviction: “I have fought the good fight… I have finished my race.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Tim Adams (current IFES General Secretary) writes: \u201cDaniel was one of the giants of our global fellowship. He certainly stood a head taller than most of us, but his presence was so much more than his physical stature. Daniel lived a life of spiritual leadership and self-sacrificial service to the Lord and to IFES movements in Francophone Africa and around the world. We will miss him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

We will share a fuller tribute to Daniel in the coming days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

IFES will also be compiling a book of photos and memories of Daniel\u2019s life and ministry. If you would like to contribute, you can do so by email to info@ifesworld.org or online here:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
