Festivals with Susan

Two weeks ago, we participated in a festival that Susan planned. It was two nights in one village. It was a great experience! There was a great turnout and the people were genuinely happy to hear what we had to say. The first night, Steve gave a testimony and Susan preached. Night # 2 I testified and Vio preached. Over 100 people came out to hear to Gospel on the second night (probably the entire village population- it was quite small)!

Festival Highlights:
After we prayed for people who wanted some form of healing, we invited all those healed up to share what Jesus had done for them. One woman came up and just kept asking us not to leave, but to stay there in their village. It was really cute.

Another woman came up and told how she had had pain all throughout her body, but that Jesus had healed her, her body was feeling so good now, she good move her limbs with ease. The Christians were somewhat surprised to hear that Jesus would heal a Muslim woman; I think it’s really good for them to see in action that God really does love everyone; that Jesus isn’t just for Christians.

There were many people that night who claimed at least a partial healing. A lot of people were able to move joints and limbs that had been sore or stiff or just plain immovable for such a long time. It was so amazing to see and get to be a part of.

Here are some pictures of the two nights:


Above: I bet many of you didn't know this, but Steve actually prefers to rap the Gospel, as opposed to regular speaking. Please ask him to do this when you see him in person again. You won't be disappointed.


Above: Here I am. Though I don't "get down" via rapping, I like to think my messages are just as effective as "Big Boss Man" Steve's.

Above: All the kids usually sit up front all together. I suspect so the parents feel less responsible when they misbehave. I am getting sooo much practise on my "Mom" look! It doubles as my "Angry wife" look! Watch out Steve. ha.
