From casino to Christ to Kosovo... and beyond

Fane Conant

A former gambler turned evangelist is planning his next mission at the age of 79.

As a young man, Fane Conant bet on horses every day and spent his Saturdays in the casino. After meeting some Christian sportsmen in his twenties and seeing they ‘had something’ he didn’t, he gave his life to Christ – but it took a decade for him to finally stop gambling.

‘God clearly had a purpose for me,’ Fane shared with en, ‘as I always wanted to share my faith even though my lifestyle was not good.’
