Dear Friends
During our Sunday service in Boston Massachusetts we were 19 adults and 3 children. We had 3 visitors and one committed herself to Forward In Faith. We are happy because our regular members are bragging about their church and inviting other people telling them that FIFMI is not a new thing but a church that is already established. We were very busy with counselling, water baptism and Holy Spirit baptism during the week. We have managed to move to the Mission house and we had a big fellowship at the new Mission House after our Sunday service. Some members who were not able to come to church later came for the fellowship.The members are excited about their church. They came together and bought the linen needed for the new Mission house. This was a pleasant surprise considering this is a new baby church. They even bought food for the fellowship. This baby church is already behaving like a church that’s been running for a long time but its less than 2 months old. We thank God for our father and mother for the seed they planted here. Prayer is needed for members not to work on Sunday’s. The church is alive in Boston and its promising to grow very big. Pastor Dan led bible study and Overseer Zenas preached a powerful messsage on ‘ understanding your Purpose In Christ’. We thank God for what He is doing in Boston. We also thank God for our young missionaries Pheim Guti and Steve Simukai Jr who have since returned to school after a successful mission in Boston.
News from around the globe: NEW ZEALAND WOMEN’S CONFERENCE
The New Zealand “Woman your season of success” conference was a resounding success. We witnessed God in action. It is not possible to describe the presence and the encounter with God. The God of Ezekiel is indeed a very good God. We had a maximum attendance of 196 people, 51 delegates from Australia, Fiji and Samoa. People testified of seeing Archbishop Eunor and The Servant and Apostles of God in the Auditorium throughout the conference. We would like to thank the Apostles of Jesus Christ for sending us a powerful delegation. Dr La-Verne Simukai, Rev Getrude Rupapa, Overseer Angeline Chabarwa and elder Syria Tambudze from Cananda. All the speakers were mightly used by God so much that a lot of deliverance was happening as the word was being taught. On Saturday night as the speakers met to pray for Baba and Amai in their hotel room after service, they found themselves laughing and fellowshipping, it was hard to stop. Little did we know that it was a foretaste of what was going to happen on Sunday. During testimonies, one lady could not contain herself as she was testifying, she started laughing and within a few seconds there was a resounding sound of laughter in the whole congregation. People were just bubbling, crying, laughing in the Holy Ghost, some dancing in the spirit, others singing in the spirit whilst others spoke to each other in tongues. Dr. La-Verne stood up to speak people rushed forward and as they got to the altar they were falling under the power of God and deliverance started happening without her laying hands on them. It was later on that people started testifying that as people were laughing in the spirit some people saw mist flowing everywhere and they couldn’t even see anyone. Everyone was covered in this mist and things were happening, some were being delivered. Many ladies got healed, delivered, received their breakthroughs and some received spiritual gifts during this time. We really could feel the presence of our father and mother amidst us. Many ladies testified that as they looked at Dr La-Verne they saw our mother Archbishop Eunor praying for people and the Servant and Apostle of God walking on the stage. Here are some of the testimonies:
16 people received the baptism in the Holy Spirit. 1 person committed to becoming a member of FIFMI. 4 people signed up to get water baptized when they return to their assemblies. We also thank God for the grace He gave the nation of New Zealand to work missions. We raised more than we expected. Glory be to God! Bangladesh Praise God for the Bangladesh short term missionary team, Pastor Prosper Mutumbwa & Pastor Master Masango. May God give the team ability to accomplish the mission as per Baba’s instruction. The church was registered in 2011 and the team has to train and set up church structures and train leaders and identify people with future of the church of FIF Bangladesh and ground the church in the doctrine. They need to find a bigger church meeting place, a secure residence for the pastors at affordable rentals and breakthrough in winning all classes of people in that country to the Lord. The people are hungry and thirsty for the God changes lives. Kenya
We thank Baba and Amai for sending us three dynamic Evangelists namely, Eva. George River, Eva. Enock Tigere and Eva. Dr Phillip Mutsambiwa for our Mega Crusade which was held from 11th to the 16th. It was a great visitation indeed. 320 souls came to the Lord. Numerous miracles took place. Healings of many ailments like back pains, asthma, leg pains to mention a few were witnessed. Many were delivered from spiritual husbands and wives and the spirit of bitterness. 3 recovered their sight. 4 had their ears opened. A young man who wanted to commit suicide, came to the crusade and he received a word of prophecy and was delivered. A Pastor from a different church who attended the crusade throughout declared himself and his family now formally members of Forward In Faith because of what he witnessed. This crusade really shook Nairobi and our old believers were also revived. On Sunday evangelist Phil taught the history of FIFMI and about the Holy Spirit – 8 were filled with the Holy Spirit and 13 were re-filled with the Holy Spirit on Sunday. Following this great crusade the place of worship has now become small and we will need a bigger place of worship. We have also organised an All Believers Empowerment Conference 21-23 August 2015. Meanwhile, the third assembly is on schedule for a 30th of August launch.
Madagascar
We thank the God of our Father for His grace we are witnessing in Madagascar. In Fort Dauphin the Lord is adding to our numbers, 8 more people came to Christ and we water baptised 16 believers on Sunday. The construction of the church hall is commencing this coming September. In Antananarivo the church is progressing well, one of our believers who moved to another town to work there has since preached to 6 people who are hungry for the God of Ezekiel. On Sunday they gathered to listen to pastor preaching the word of God over the phone. God has opened another door for us in another town called Tamatavi, one man who repented has so far organized everything for the church to start there. We will be preaching in that town as from 21 August. We really praise God for everything and thank you so much for your continuous support in prayers.
Italy
Our Sunday church service was filled with the presence of the Holy Spirit. People were delivered and healed as the man of God was preaching including a woman who had a back ache for almost 25 years. She reported after the service that there was a movement that she felt from the time the preacher preached up to the time he prayed for her and she was healed. Our church attendance was 14 Adults and 1 child. Although everything was closed because it was a public holiday no buses moving still some people managed to attend church, having faith of coming to attend church not knowing how one will return home. We want to continue praising God for His love to His church. Glory be to Jesus.
Sweden
We thank the God of Ezekiel for another week of His faithfulness. Even though many of our members had to work this Sunday, we still witnessed new people coming to fellowship with us. The total number of people in attendance on Sunday was 15, of which 2 were new. We are continually believing God for more souls. This week the church is engaging in a week of fasting and prayer for the upcoming High Tea party being hosted by the ladies on the 29th August 2015. By God’s grace an attendance by high officials from different embassies is expected. We kindly ask for your prayers. The resident pastors visited the Dalarna home group. On Friday they found 13 people in attendance and on Saturday 14.
Belize
We had a great time in God’s presence with great testimonies from the saints. An average of 43 people attended our services. Our new assembly in Punta Gorda was affected because our venue a community hall, was occupied by another event. We pray that we get our own place of worship so that over 40 souls that came to God in that area will not be scattered
Papa New Guniea
We had 25 adults and 4 children. 2 people received Christ at a home bible study group in Taurama.
