Mid-Crusade Report From Chipata, Zambia

We just finished the third night of our crusade in Chipata Compound, Zambia. The crowds have swelled and grown every night; huge dense masses of humanity packed together, standing for hours to hear the Gospel. This is winter in Africa, and we were blessed with warm weather last week. This week the days are pleasant but the evenings are cold. The people are mostly poor, many with no footwear or warm clothing, but this does not prevent them from coming to the crusade.

Huge multitudes are receiving the Lord Jesus every night, and God is confirming his Word with signs following. So far we have seen many deaf people healed, at least two blind people have received their sight, two paralyzed and lame boys have gotten up walking and running, tumors have disappeared and demon possessed people have been delivered.

With each testimony the crowds have responded with shouting and praises to God. The atmosphere in the crusade has been wonderful. My team is excited and we are excited about what God will do in the rest of the crusade!

We give all Glory to our Lord Jesus!

With me I have Pastor Chris Foster and Brad Chivington from New Life Assembly of God in Lancaster, PA. Also with us are my travel agent and "little sister" from Thailand, Penny Kliakusorn, from the Hope of Bangkok Church.

Do read Pastor Chris's blog about the crusade
chrishfoster.blogspot.com . He also made the following comment to put in this e-mail:

"The deaf are hearing, the blind are seeing, the lame are walking and thousands are coming to Christ. We are seeing New Testament miracles each night as Christopher declares that God is the same yesterday, today and forever. This crusade in Zambia has been a life changing experience and we are not done yet. I will go home radically different"!

Thank you for your love, prayers and financial support!
