Pastors and leaders held a practice session on Friday and Saturday to teach new songs, preparing for worship. On Sunday, Pastor Fanuel led an interactive Bible study.
We also celebrated the 55th anniversary of the Republic. During this special occasion, the CE ministry was given time to speak about the patriotism of Guyana. This was followed by a powerful session of praise and worship. The message focused on fear not, sin not, as our pastor continually reminds us. It was a mighty move of God that stirred hearts and led many into fervent prayer. Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

RUSSIA

We thank the God of our Father Ezekiel for the powerful Sunday services. During the online service, our Pastor preached on “The teaching process” referencing the Great Commission. Following right after was yet another powerful offline service with 25 members in attendance. Our fellow brother Timothy explained the importance of having a close relationship with God. During the week, we received Deeper life feedback. Indeed, the church was uplifted by the powerful teachings of the seasoned preachers who taught at the Deeper Life conference. As the Russian church, we commit to following the example of our father. Thank you for your prayers and continuous support.

MAURITIUS

FIF Mauritius continues to march forward, and the gates of hell shall not prevail! We are overflowing with gratitude to the God of our father as we witness His undeniable hand upon our church. Our weekly activities are thriving, with members actively engaging in the work of the Kingdom. Standing firm in prayer, we are strengthened by the apostles’ update guidance, pressing on with unwavering faith.
This past Sunday was nothing short of extraordinary! We had the privilege of welcoming Pastor Hillary and Pastor Shamiso Mwale, and what a powerful service it was! Pastor Hillary delivered a life-changing teaching on the Kingdom of God being likened to a mustard seed—a message that stirred hearts and ignited faith. The anointing was so strong that nine people surrendered their lives to Christ, including two Mauritians! The Sunday was closed with an exciting football match between the Boys of Thunder and the Man of Integrity.
Our congregation continues to expand, with 134 attendees, both adults and children, filling the house of God. Among them were four Mauritians who joined us in worship—another sign of God’s mighty move in this land. We give all the glory to the Lord!
Your prayers are fuelling this great work, and we deeply appreciate your unwavering support. May the Lord continue to establish His Kingdom in Mauritius!

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI’S MESSAGE

Some people, you read a verse which says by faith this happens, and you believe by faith it’s going to happen, and then nothing happens. Who’s wrong there? Whom do we blame, God or me? In everything, God looks at the heart. God says I have seen the man after my own heart. You may be surrounded by bad things, but God looks at the heart. You may say, how can God say I have seen a man after my own heart to David after that mistake he did, but He saw the heart. David made a lot of mistakes. The heart is something that you cannot deceive yourself. The heart is something that you cannot deceive you know it. God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you,

Apostle Drs Steve & La-Verne Simukai
