Niilo Yli-Vainio


Niilo Antti Johannes Yli-Vainio was a Finnish Charismatic leader. Several alleged healing miracles and other spiritual experiences took place at his revival meetings. As a result, thousands of Finns converted to Pentecostalism.
Yli-Vainio, who started preaching after having recovered from a heart condition during the 1950s, rose to fame during the late 1970s.
