Who are the Palaus?

From Rebellion to Redemption

We’re keeping our eyes locked on Jesus as we spread the Good News around the world. We know we’re not just doing a job. It is our greatest privilege...
— Andrew Palau

For more than 25 years Andrew Palau has played a key role in the ministry of Palau. He has been instrumental in building Palau model for citywide outreach as an evangelist, director, and key team leader. He has guided campaigns, led church relations efforts, trained thousands of believers in friendship evangelism, and proclaimed the Good News of Jesus Christ in person to hundreds of thousands of individuals worldwide.

His weekly radio broadcasts are heard by millions of people on thousands of radio outlets in dozens of countries. He is also the author of multiple books, including Secret Life of a Fool, a retelling of his personal journey to faith in Christ, and What is Christmas?, a groundbreaking evangelistic book published in China in 2012. He is also a regular contributor to national publications with articles on issues of faith, and a favorite speaker at conferences and gatherings around the world.

He and his wife, Wendy, have three children, Christopher, Jonathan, and Sadie. They live in Portland, Oregon, close to the world headquarters of the Palau ministry.

Wendy Palau shoulders a burden for the brokenhearted, born out of her own experience of loneliness, pain, and loss. While raised in a loving home on the island of Jamaica, her heart sought fulfillment and peace in all the wrong places. 

At 25 years of age, God radically changed her life, and she found the true joy she had been longing for. She and her husband, Andrew, have since dedicated their lives to sharing this message of hope with hurting people around the world. For the past several years, they have led multiple festivals around the United States and the world reaching millions of people and partnering with thousands of churches in cities throughout Latin America, Africa, Asia, Europe, Australia, the Caribbean, and the United States of America. 

 Currently, Wendy leads outreaches to women around the world in the context of Palau Festivals. She shares the hope she has found in Christ through her own personal story. She also shares the Good News through Palau’s Hope with God Radio and digital evangelism efforts.
