The mission begins....

An awesome day !!!! We had a great youth revival meeting (or at least that's what the banner was headed) and the Lord was at work... thanks sooooooooooo much for all your prayers!!

We had 3 sessions of praise and worship interlinked with teaching and practical periods followed with prayer. Almost double the expected numbers came approx 130!! Not into stats as such but for those of you that are around 20 people gave their hearts to the Lord this morning awesome !! Praise God..
We concluded with those that wanted to rededicate their lives and make a fresh commitment to Christ, almost 85% stood up and we prayed for them!

We are kinda blown apart in seeing such an overwhelming response today's meeting. This is real stuff and it's so encouraging and such a blessing not only to us but the team of pastors.All new believers had new Test. given freely which we just managed to get.

Tonight I baptised with another pastor 10 people (young and old), amazing that only a few hundred yards away was an Indian shrine. what a mind blowing reality that in one place there is the Kingdom of darkness and just a few hundred yards apart people are making publicly there dedication to Christ. They have been waiting to make this public declaration due to the troubles, but tonight was there moment. We are here in the heart of rural India and people are being saved by the Grace of God.

The evening service that followed we gave out saris to widows and bibles to those who needed...again awesome.

Please continue to pray for all our meetings, I probably cannot express everything well as time is short between meetings but I wanted you to be encouraged.
