Testimonies from around the world

Teams from our October quarter schools have been on outreach the last 3 months. Here’s just a few of the stories they shared with us from their experiences as they returned last week!

From the Philippines: Our Island Breeze ministry is doing outreach right now in the islands of the Philippines. They are a performing arts group that showcase traditional cultural dances from the South Pacific and they have joined up with other international performers to perform and preach the gospel. One of the girls from Island Breeze, named Tiffany, went to pray for a girl after one of the shows. The person with her explained that she was deaf and mute. Tiffany started praying for healing and the girl’s eyes widened, she could hear worship music. She pointed to the direction of the sound. Then her friend encouraged her to try to speak, and she was able to make several noises for the first time in her 19 years of life.

From Thailand: a girl from the School of Evangelism was attending a dance class and felt strongly that she should preach the gospel and share her testimony with the class. They were deeply impacted and one woman came up to her afterward and told her that she had prayed that day that someone would come and talk to her about God.

From China: one DTS team held English classes in Shenzhen. They met a university student and got to share with this girl about God’s love, the cross and relationship with God. The Holy Spirit spoke to her so strongly and she decided to give her life to Christ!

From Nepal: one student who was severely ill for several days felt like God said to go out on ministry anyway. That day he prayed for a baby who was near death from dehydration and fever, its eyes were rolling back into its head and he wouldn’t eat or drink anything. After praying for the baby he was instantly healed. Then he prayed for two women with vision problems who were both healed, and then a man who could barely walk because of a knee injury was healed and began to jump around with joy! All this through a sick student who maintained that Jesus can heal even if he didn’t get healed himself.
