AFRICAN PENTECOST! CHAWAMA CRUSADE ENDS.

We just finished the Chawama Crusade. A huge multitude had gathered tonight - the final night of this crusade. Tonight was Holy Ghost Night: we usually pray for people to receive the Baptism with the Holy Ghost and Fire on the final night of every crusade.

I preached tonight about the Blood of our Lord Jesus. I always do this on Holy Ghost night because I know that the Blood always brings down the Glory. God always answers the Blood with Fire! In the Bible the Fire of God never fell upon dry altars, but always upon Blood-soaked altars. If we want the Fire of God to fall, we must make much of, sing, shout and preach about the Cross and the Blood of our Lord Jesus!

The response to the altar call for Salvation was fantastic. The whole field, and even people standing across the field, wanted to receive the Lord Jesus.

After that the Fire of the Lord fell with Pentecostal Power. Thousands upon thousands were Baptized with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Beautiful, tear-stained African faces turned up towards Heaven, worshiping God in other tongues, their shouts and praises ascending to the very Throne of God. The Lord responded by unleashing Wave upon Wave of his Glory upon the gathered multitude. All the way to the back of the huge crowd, the whole field seemed ablaze with the Fire of God.

Then The Lord healed the sick and the infirm. Deaf ears were opened, people's eyes were healed, tumors disappeared.... one lady testified that a huge fibroid tumor the size of an orange had completely vanished from her as Jesus touched her. Another young girl, crippled and unable to walk was carried in on a wheelbarrow; Jesus touched her and she walked and danced upon the platform, pushing her wheelbarrow in front of her as the crowd cheered shouted with boundless joy. Yet another young man paralyzed and unable to walk, got up and walked....

My dear friend Pastor John Nuzzo stood alongside me. I am glad that he could see the fruit of all the generous support that his church has been giving us all these years.

Such was the end of this crusade. This week we have been up on the mountaintops of victory, but also in the valley of sorrow at the death of the son of our brother Pastor Zulu. Yet we know in all things that our Lord is Faithful. Pastor Zulu's son is in Heaven with Jesus. Especially poignant for me is the fact that Pastor Zulu was Saved at one of our crusades here in Zambia many years ago. There are so many Pastors and Evangelists in Zambia and Zimbabwe who received Salvation in our Crusades through the years. It is a privilege to serve the Lord alongside them, even to weep with them and share their victories and even their sorrows.

Thank you for your love, your faithful giving, for joining your faith with us!

Please pray for safety my family, myself and also for my team as they travel back to Zimbabwe. I fly to Europe to preach to weeks in Sweden and Portugal. My daughter Victoria is joining me for these two weeks!

In Christ

TRAGEDY IN THE MIDST OF VICTORY!

We saw a wonderful Harvest of Souls tonight. A Deaf-mute girl heard and spoke for the first time in her life, a boy totally blind in one eye saw perfectly. A lady who was mute spoke, deaf ears were opened and more.....

We ended a successful Pastor's Conference today with Pastor John Nuzzo.

A great tragedy also took place at the crusade. Immediately after one of the crusade services one night, a fight broke out between some people. A 21 year old son of Pastor Zulu (a friend of our ministry who had received Jesus in one of our Crusades many years ago) tried to intervene and was stabbed by one of the men. He died immediately.

This is all so very sad! Pastor John Nuzzo, Pastor Mavondo and I visited the family to pray with them. The sound of people crying in sorrow in that house broke our hearts.

Such are the places we preach the Gospel in. Where sin abounds, there Grace much more abounds.

Please pray for Pastor Zulu and his family!

We have one more night to go here in Chawama.

In Christ,

MID-CRUSADE REPORT FROM THE CHAWAMA, ZAMBIA CRUSADE: SALVATION, HEALING AND DELIVERANCE LIKE A MIGHTY FLOOD!

The Power and the Grace of our Lord continue to flow at the Chawama Crusade. We have reached the mid-point of this 5-night Gospel Crusade. Multitudes are receiving Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and The Lord is pouring out His Grace through Wonderful Healings and Deliverance.

Demon-possessed people are falling to the ground screaming and the devils coming out of them because of the power of the Wonderful Name of our Lord Jesus!

We are seeing the Lord do so many wonderful miracles. A woman totally blind received her sight. Another lady who was paralyzed in one arm and leg and was almost totally blind after a stroke (she could only dimly see an arm's length in front of her), was totally healed! Many deaf ears are being opened and many are testifying of receiving healing from different kinds of diseases and infirmities.

My dear friend and brother Pastor John Nuzzo has brought a group of 18 eager people from his church who are helping us. They are ministering to the people at the crusade and at the Children's Crusade with great faith and God is using them in a wonderful way.

Surely our Lord Jesus is the Same Yesterday, Today and For ever! What a Wonderful Savior we serve; all Glory to Him for all things, because He alone is Worthy!

Two more nights to go! This is Harvest Time! Hallelujah!

Thank you for your faith, financial support and your prayers which enable us to proclaim our Wonderful Lord Jesus to those that are lost without Him, and to bring them into the Kingdom of God!.

In Christ

CHAWAMA HARVEST BEGINS!

We started our Gospel Crusade in Chawama, Zambia tonight. A huge multitude came out this first night, braving the cold weather to stand for hours and sing and dance with us and listen to the Gospel message. I preached from John 3:14-17. This huge multitude responded wholeheartedly to the altar call and gave their hearts to Jesus.

After that the Lord did many wonderful miracles. Amongst other things many deaf ears were opened, a lady with a large tumor inside her mouth testified to how the tumor instantly disappeared under the Power of God. Another lady testified that she was almost blind and saw only a couple of feet in front of her. Jesus healed her and gave her perfect sight!

Many others also testified of what the Lord had done for them. It was a wonderful beginning to this crusade! Helping my team and me in this crusade are 18 members from victory family Church in Cranberry Twp PA, the students of the Gospel Training Institute in Lusaka, and some friends from Sweden and Switzerland.

All Glory to our Lord Jesus!

In Christ

The George Crusade ends with a Huge Harvest of Souls, with Miracles and Holy Ghost Fire!

We just ended our Crusade in George, Zambia. We have seen and experienced 6 days of the Glory of God coming over this poor dusty town in Zambia. The Gospel message went forth and brought conviction into the hearts of huge multitudes of people every single night, and we saw these multitudes turn away from their sins and to the Living Savior, our Lord Jesus Christ who alone is the giver of Life eternal and can make all things new! All Glory to our Lord Jesus!

Every night we have seen wonderful miracles that our Lord has done to confirm His Word. We have seen the lame walk, the blind see, the deaf hear and many others healed from many different diseases and infirmities.

Tonight was the last night and a huge crowd was present to hear the Gospel. A great mass of people received the Lord Jesus. After that the Holy Ghost Fell upon the crowd and some thousands of people were Baptized with the Holy Ghost and with Fire, speaking and worshiping God in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. After that literally hundreds of people were healed…. The most outstanding of these being a little 10 year old girl who was paralyzed in half her body and had never been able to stand up or to walk; she stood up and was brought up to the platform by her sister and she walked for the first time in front of the gathered multitude (see photo). Another lady had been totally blind in one eye for 10 years and Jesus restored her sight fully. Several deaf ears were opened and many others also came to testify about other things that the Lord had done for them.

We therefore leave George with a great harvest of souls for our Lord Jesus. For this we are most humbled and thankful.

What a wonderful Jesus we serve!

We spend Monday and Tuesday moving our truck and 22 tons of equipment to the town of Chawama where our next crusade begins on Wednesday. Do put your faith out for this crusade as you did for this one that we just finished! Let us again believe God for a great harvest of souls for Jesus!

On Wednesday we also begin a School of Ministry for Pastors. Several hundred Pastors are expected, including 30 of Pastors from our own AWAKE Churches in Zimbabwe, Mocambique, Botswana and South Africa. My dear friend pastor John Nuzzo shall be our main speaker at this conference. We do this conference every year together with our friend Pastor and Missionary Walker Schurz who pastors the great Miracle Life Church in Lusaka Zambia. Walker and his church normally make the arrangements but this year they asked us to make the arrangements for this Conference.

Thank you for your love, prayers, faith and financial support. The Lord Bless you in ALL your endeavors for the Glorious Gospel of our Wonderful Lord Jesus!

In Christ, your brother

THE POWER OF GOD CONTINUES TO FALL IN GEORGE, ZAMBIA

We just did the 4th night of our crusade in George, Zambia. The Gospel is going forth with great power and huge multitudes have received the Lord Jesus every night. Since my last report the day before yesterday we have seen the Lord continue to pour out His Grace through Salvation, Healings, Miracles and Deliverance. Tonight I preached about the deliverance of the demon-possessed man from the Gadarenes. After the altar call as I prayed for the sick, demon possessed people in the crowd began to fall screaming to the ground as the devils came out of them. Nothing can stand against the mighty Name of our Lord Jesus! Demons tremble at the very mention of His Name!

Last night and tonight we saw our Lord do many wonderful miracles. A lady came to me after the service and asked me to pray over a prayer cloth. It was for her brother who had been stricken with Tetanus that was out of control and had spread throughout his body. He was in the Intensive Care Unit of the local hospital and was dying. As a last ditch effort the doctors were planning to operate on him the next morning. I prayed over the cloth and she went straight to the hospital and put the prayer cloth on him. Yesterday morning, after he had been wheeled into the surgery the doctors were shocked to see that Jesus had healed him and that he was perfectly whole. The released him immediately and sent him home!

Another young man came hobbling on a crutch to the crusade tonight. His right leg was paralyzed and he had not been able to stand or walk for 5 years – Jesus touched him! He took off running, jumping and shouting for joy to the cheers of the crowd!

In addition to this we have seen God open many deaf ears, several blind eyes and heal a multitude of others from many other diseases and infirmities. People are eagerly and joyfully testifying of the wonderful things that the Lord has done for them.

For all this we give all Glory, Honor and Praise to our Lord Jesus. What a priceless privilege it is to serve Him in the Fire of the Holy Ghost!

Thank you for joining your Faith together with us through your love, support and prayers. All the faith, prayer and finances that you have sown into these crusades are bearing much fruit to the Glory of God. Multitudes of Souls are coming into the Kingdom and great is your reward, both in Heavenly and in Earthly things!

With much love,

In Christ Jesus, your brother
