14 saved in Tanga

This morning I was asked to preached for Pastor Putaputa in TAG City Centre Church. What a wonderful church this is. I preached on knowing your identity and 14 precious souls accepted Jesus along with about 10 kids. God is on the move in Tanga.



After lunch Pastor Putaputa took me around to see some of the key leaders that we will meet tomorrow. Before heading back to my hotel we stopped by our potential festival site. Check it out:

Orchestrated by God

Mwanza was amazing and we were able to see how things fan out when God is orchestrating things. It do happened that the national leadership for TAG were scheduled to be in Mwanza at the same time. They were to ordain a new bishop for the region. During his speech to the new bishop the superintendent of TAG mentioned the upcoming festival that we have planned and then Bishop Mtokambali went on to brag about our latest festival in Dar. We could not get a better endorsement. WOW






The day after we had a vision-casting meeting with over 80 pastors from several different Pentecostal denominations. They all welcomed us and are standing behind the event. Bishop Isaya was unanimously chosen as the chairman.

This man


Pastor Ezekiel Motto was my host and guide while in Mwanza. What a great man. One of the evangelists in the twin and has a great heart and burden for the lost in the city.
Here is the potential site for the festival:






Tonight I will sleep in Dar and tomorrow I'm off to Tanga. Keep me in your prayers

New Prep Work

Early this morning at around 0230 I landed in Dar-es-Salaam again. Feels soo good to be back in this city. For a change I got my visa first and both bags were on the conveyer belt so I just walked out and was at the hotel 40 mins after we landed. That deserves a WOW!

Even though I had tried my best to stay awake on the final leg from Istanbul I could not fall asleep right away. Think I dozed off sometime after 4am. Woke up after just 4.5 hours and got ready for church. I could not spend a Sunday in Dar without visiting my dear friend Pastor Huruma Nkone and VCC.


Last weekend was their first Sunday in their new tent facility. They have done such an amazing job. Looks great! God is taking Pastor Huruma and VCC to the next level. They have grown since their move.


Tomorrow morning I fly to Mwanza in north western Tanzania on Lake Victoria to begin planning for our festival in June 2013. I will be there for 4 days scouting the city, meeting with key leaders and forming an organizing committee for the festival next year. Exciting days lie ahead. The Mwanza district is very animistic in their belief system even though there are many churches in the central parts of the city. Mwanza is the second city of Tanzania.

On Tuesday the Tanzania Assemblies of God will be installing a new bishop for the region and the entire national leadership for the TAG will be present. Planned Nd orchestrated by God for His glory. The new bishop is very Kingdom minded and sees us coming a s a confirmation. God is one the move my dear friends.

Later in the week I will make my way to the coastal city of Tanga to begin preparations there as well for our July event.

C u soon!

Mobilization, Maintenance and Team Prep

Have now been another week in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, preparing for the June festival.


This time I was not alone. We were five altogether. Lots of laughter and cards in the late evenings...


Ante, my faithful technician was here to do maintenance on our gear. He put in long hours every day - a job well done indeed.


Lance Stoddart and Brett Weaver were here to do prep work for our gigantic team of now 200 people strong coming in June. They have negotiated great deals with hotels, caterers and transportation companies as well as scouted out the. Ott for great places for street ministry.


Johannes Amritzer arrived on Wednesday night and we have had a week of mobilization for the festival. Altogether we have ministered to and challenged over 6,000 for the event.


Many salvations and healings. There is now a stir among the Christians for the event as now that will grow and soon there will be a buzz across the entire city that Jesus is coming to Dar es Salaam.


A very productive week indeed! Thanks for praying with and for us! Souls will enter the Kingdom because of you!

C U soon again!

God moves

Walking with God is always interesting. Seeing how he works continues to amaze me. This trip to Tanzania was put together on very short notice. Being here meeting one on one with key bishops and pastors has been orchestrated from heaven. God moves and works from two ends at once.
The unity that has come here among Christian leaders has previously been nonexistent - this according to their own testimony.

God is up to something big this year in Dar.
Isaac is being born!



Today I am preaching for Bishop Mhiche who is out of town. I met with him yesterday concerning the festival and he asked me to preach. 8 precious souls received Jesus and one young lady was beautifully delivered during the first service. 3 more received Christ during the second service.

This afternoon I have an opportunity to speak to representatives from all the Pentecostal Churches in Dar es Salaam. God moves…

C U soon again!

Adventure

Arrived back in Dar-es-Salaam last night. This trip was planned on very short notice. The greater the fight they greater the victory. God is up to something big in Dar this year. Giants are humbling themselves for the sake of the Kingdom. Anything can happen.  Was in California this weekend with our dear friend Michael Williams. Pastor Glen Berteau hosted Johannes Amritzer, Erik Dahlström and myself. God showed up in a powerful way at Calvary Temple. Many salvations, healings and deliverances as people encountered LIFE in Jesus.  Living for Jesus everyday is an adventure. Met an interesting man this weekend. Ben has been a millionaire a couple of times. He loves Jesus like few men do. Jesus shined out from him and all he spoke about was Jesus. His stories of how heaven has intervened on his behalf have me goose bumps. I felt the anointing as he spoke. There is not a religious bone in Ben's body. I love it. He is the real deal.  Gotta go.
