Hungry Hearts for God’s Pure Word

Praise the Lord for opening new doors to serve Him in other churches as well! I was invited to share the Word during a one-day Family Retreat organized by a church in a big city. I spoke during three different sessions. The Lord used me in a very powerful way to touch the lives of the people there. People were blessed by the Word of God. Many people came to me afterward, to share their testimonies of how they had been blessed.

They said that they were blessed because I did not tell them a story; rather, I spoke from the Word–it was the message that they needed to hear. All glory be to the Lord! The same church that hosted the Family Retreat has their church’s anniversary in November. They are having a three-day convention from November 15-17, and I have been invited to share the Word during these meetings. Please pray that those who have heard the Word during the Family Retreat will apply the Word to their lives, and their families will be restored and their children will be saved. Please pray that the Lord will give me His Word and anointing to preach on November 15, 16 and 17 during the church anniversary meetings.

Thank you all for your prayers for my oral surgery. One of my wisdom teeth was removed. It was a two hour and fifteen minute surgery. For four to five days, I could only eat soft food, mostly liquids. I could hardly open my mouth for about a week. The doctor gave me an exercise that helped me to open my mouth gradually. I am doing well now, but I still have pain in my jaw. My other teeth are also painful. I need to get root canals in some of these teeth.

The Pastors School students are doing well. They are enjoying learning the Word. We are thankful for the Pastors who are able teach us on Skype. Last month, most of our students became ill because of the different climate here, but now they are well. On November 2, we will be going to another state for a seminar, and all of the students are very excited. Some of the students have never traveled by train. It will be their first time to travel by train.

In our Friday Bible Study, we are on chapter 5 of 1 John. Verse by verse Bible study is new for the Christians here. They are now understanding the Word. We have our Sunday worship in a rented hall. The Pastors School students have more opportunities to take part in the Worship Service.

My wife had the privilege to share the Word for a one-day Women’s Meeting. There were about three hundred women at the gathering. The meeting was to encourage women to grow in the Lord and make disciples. In our area, there is a great revival among women. More women are coming to the Lord than men.

Thank you for being part of the ministry of the Gospel through your prayers and support!

Co-workers in Christ,

Pastor 15 Family
