If we do not look to Jesus, our worries will not sanctify us, but harden, discourage, and crush us.

— Maria Luise Prean-Bruni (b. 1939), Missionarin, Hilfswerksgründerin, Autorin und Vortragsrednerin

Maria Luise Prean-Bruni

Die österreichische Missionarin, Autorin und Vortragsrednerin Maria Luise Prean-Bruni (* 1939) gründete um 2001 das Hilfswerk „Vision für Afrika“ in Uganda. Sie steht im freikirchlich-charismatischen Raum für praktisches soziales Engagement sowie für Veröffentlichungen und Vorträge über Gottvertrauen und persönliche Glaubenserneuerung. Bibellesern vermittelt ihr Wirken Impulse für gelebte Nächstenliebe und Gebetsvertrauen, wobei ihr charismatischer Verkündigungsstil im konservativ-evangelikalen Spektrum vereinzelt als zu schwärmerisch kritisiert wird.
