About

Peter Carstens was born, raised, and educated in Germany where he obtained a Masters in Agriculture, with a specialty in Tropical and Subtropical Agriculture. In 1986, he immigrated to the USA after 21 years of residing in Costa Rica, Central America. In the USA he familiarized himself with the natural principals of health and healthy lifestyle, at the Living Springs Health and Lifestyle Center located in Putnam Valley, New York.

After reversing his personal health problems (obesity, hypertension, respiratory problems, a suspected colon cancer, chronic fatigue, and a swollen liver), he felt impressed to share his knowledge with others suffering from chronic and health problems.

Peter has a record of 24 years experience in teaching and training Health and Lifestyle Educators at international and local levels.

In October of 2000, Peter began his work in Mozambique, Africa. In February of 2004, Lifeline to Africa Inc., a not for profit organization was founded and registered in the state of New York.  On May 7^th, 2009 the organization was registered with the State of Florida. Through Lifeline to Africa Inc. Peter and his wife Clemencia have trained hundreds of Health and lifestyle educators in many parts of the U. S and abroad some working fulltime helping people. The work has recently been expanded in various other countries like Ecuador, South America, etc and is growing.

Through their comprehensive training program, they can enable anyone to put their body into a position where it can heal itself from almost any degenerative or chronic disease, and build up an efficient immune system for protection against infectious diseases.

Alongside Peter is his wife Clemencia and for 12 years she has been a driving force in this organization. She is from Ecuador and has resided in the United States for many years and has single-handedly been the one to start the mission program in Mozambique-Africa, in the beginning using their own personal funds to run it until eventually Peter had to return to the U S to raise funds by giving health lectures, while Clemencia stayed over there for four years on her own building the mission classes. She used the inspired writings of the Seventh day Adventist church and taught the students about health and lifestyle she also set up a training model that is still being used today in Africa, Latin America and here in America.

Lifeline to Africa Inc. still supports fulltime local medical missionaries in Mozambique going door to door and church to church teaching healthful lifestyle and the gospel, leading people to Christ.

There are many self supporting health and lifestyle educators in different states and places in this country assisting people in healing themselves, teaching seminars and finding their way to Christ.  The demand is great for natural ways of healing many people are looking for how they can get back to basics with their health, by taking control and getting healthy by choice and not by chance.

Where have we been?

In 2000 lifeline to Africa Inc. started a mission in Mozambique spearheaded by Clemencia Carstens. Even though in the United States it’s called “Lifeline to America” and in Ecuador and South America we are operating under the name “Salva Vidas de Ecuador”.

We have trained hundreds of Health and Lifestyle Educators in New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, all over Florida up to Lake City at the north of Florida. We have Lifestyle Educators in Mozambique going house to house and teaching the community how to take care of their health by using the simple and natural ways that God instituted from the beginning. The program is going on in South America and people are getting great results from using the methods we teach both here and abroad.

Where are we going?

We at Lifeline to Africa Inc. are in the process of starting an exciting program called, National Health Revival. This is a wonderful project working with the schools in an effort to get the children involved because they are the most vulnerable ones right now when it comes to health issues. This program is specially aimed to assist our government in its effort to reduce childhood obesity, The children are growing up in a contaminated world with foods that should really not be called foods – JUNK FOODS- they should be called JUNK.. because it has nothing to do with food. They cause health problems like diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, obesity etc if the children are our future we need to take care of their health. Too many of our kids are not active in exercising as they used to be, they are actively using only their thumbs for video games and the TV remote control.

Lifeline to Africa Inc. has made it their mission to teach people how to avoid the dangers we can avoid and how to deal with the dangers that we cannot avoid. We can’t avoid breathing contaminated air, drinking contaminated water, eating contaminated food with all kinds of pesticides.

There are ways to deal with all these toxins, it’s true we can’t avoid contamination from entering our body but we certainly can avoid them staying in our body and Lifeline to Africa Inc. has been teaching how for twelve successful years.
