TESTIMONIES

A Muslim, married, pregnant woman at our recently ended Christmas Convention ground started her testimony by saying “this  Convention ground is hot, a load has left my head, something has gone out of my stomach and am delivered from a 10 years epilepsy, she exclaimed” after being prayed for.  She has already been to several places in search of solution before this great day for her as you see her/husband.

Another Christian lady was also delivered from an abnormal movement in her womb for many years after being prayed for during this Convention. Many were touched by the Almighty.

It was a real visitation from the Lord.

17TH ANNIVERSARY CONVENTION ENDS

Hayes, Pastor Hans Edward Hess and Steve Potter, from the USA taking the pulpit at different times during the convention to bless the Church.

The Convention was very successful despite the overflow of attendance from all over the country. Sitting was a huge challenge for the turn out was way beyond the expectations.

Despite a setback in our preparation which paralyzed our usual transportation arrangement to get all on the spot, painting of the Church building as well as the premises could not be done and others, God still showed His faithfulness to His own work again.

GUNJUR  XMAS CONVENTION 2017

Our slated Dec. 22-25, 2017 successful Christmas Convention in Gunjur, in The Gambia, a new location, ended last Monday evening Dec. 25, 2017.

We returned the same night from the 4 day Convention where God really showed up once again. Though a success, the lack of enough accommodation led to a burden/challenge where many delegates spent all the 3 cold nights sleeping outside under trees/tents and houses built with trees as you can see in the photos in our gallery.

Do please pray along with us as we are now aiming at starting the molding of   blocks towards the start of Construction on our Church landed property to avoid continuous challenges on accommodation difficulties and imposters against any little we are doing for Him here by His grace.

NOV. 2017 ANNUAL GOSPEL CRUSADE ENDS

403 on the second day, Saturday Nov. 4, 2017

333 on third day, Sunday Nov. 5, 2017

in attendance with 20 souls won to Christ at the end.

We really praise God for the lives of the willing Missionaries, Pastor Rick Clevenger & Brother J. Faison, Crossroads Community Church Newport, TN. who made it to Gambia to grace the occasion with us for all the days. Their Mission Trip was fruitful and a blessing to us, Church and as a Nation at large

A 5-DAY MISSIONS TRIP TO SIERRA LEONE

Our Mission Trip to Sierra Leone, Freetown Oct. 27-31, 2017 was great and worthy of praises to Him and Him alone.

23 converts were baptized by immersion on Saturday Oct. 28, 2017

7 Souls were won to Christ on Sunday Oct. 29, 2017 as you view the photos of baptism down the stream and converts being prayed for.

The other photos show a former unsuccessful Cinema/Theater or Video club where soccer matches were been shown now available to rent for Church use at a cost  Le 4,000,000.00 an equivalent of $ 550.00 per annum. Being such a strategic location for members, we manage to make a part payment to hold it and against forfeiting it. Pray for Sierra Leone and help if you can.

ON A SAD NOTE:

The other Pictures show SUGAR LOAF MOUNTAIN, where the landslide/ flood happened August 14, 2017 costing 450-1000 lives according to a security personnel on the ground. It is an area never to be inhabited according to Colonial Masters which was denied. A man who once came to remind and to advise the people to avoid the area was brutally murdered with many of his parts cut some 10 years ago. It was on the 10th year of that man’s murder on the spot that the unfortunate incident happened with many lives perished.

This is the country that was hit by an 11 years rebellion where many were amputated at a choice of the victim, long or short sleeve, rape and Ebola virus causing many to scatter into African countries as refugees who have and are still returning.

Do please pray for that country especially towards an upcoming Presidential Election.

DEACONS AND DEACONESSES ORDAINED AT THE 15TH ANNIVERSARY 

The 15th anniversary of the Church (February 15th – 19th) ended the 5-days convention with the ordination of Deacons and Deaconesses to help in leading the Church to the next phase.

Our special thanks to the guest ministers, Rev Kevin Kellough and Rev. (Dr) Patrick D. Hayes, who both flew in from the United States of America.

POWER OF GOD RAINS DOWN IN SANDALI AND SAMBUYA VILLAGES WITH SIGNS AND WONDERS

Although we do encounter difficulties in transporting Church members and other participants to Gospel Crusade grounds such as the recent one in Sandali village between Oct. 26– 28, 2012, which we are grateful to the Almighty for His leading and for 49 won souls to Christ with 242, 259 and 309 in attendance for the three days respectively.

The most recent Crusade was in Sambuya village Nov. 16–17, 2012 with an unusual crowd drawn in. The program ended on Sunday Nov. 18,2012 where a great service was held under cashew trees in Jambanjelly village with a total number of 50 souls won to Christ.

This visit to these villages through such Crusades, being first of its kind has brought a new experience and several villages are now open to this ministry for a visit with the Gospel’’, remarked one civil servant who lives in the village.

Though the Crusade was marred by evil manifestation through big snakes which were killed during the crusade nights (as shown in pictures) but healing, deliverance and a miracle of halting an unusual rain through prayers of the Saint as led by Pastor Bidwell Mendy was evident of the presence of the power of God at the crusade ground in Sandally village.

The awesome manifestation of the power of God drew great jubilation and thanks from the crowd to the Almighty for being a prayer answering God.
