There is a lady whose eyesight is deteriorating, in fact one eye can no longer see. Daily when she moves about or does her work, her child accompanies her. We ministered and prayed for the lady. Even though she is not healed yet we see a transformation within her - she cries out and longs to be healed. We pray with her to this day. Her name is Reni. May God bless us all.

3) Our young people to remain focused on Christ

During this challenging time of lockdown due to COVID-19, my hope is in the Lord. More and more people look to the Lord and are embracing Him during this pandemic. The Lord has softened their previously hardened hearts and caused them to be repentant and turn towards Him. There is a time and date for everything and the Lord in His omniscience and sovereignty has ordered this pandemic to draw souls to Him. The Lord also enables us as His servants to work for Him with the Holy Spirit's guidance. He hears his people's cry. He is the Saviour of the world.

Last month there was a pregnant lady who almost lost her baby. As we prayed for her, she felt a healing in her womb and when we checked her into the hospital, the doctors confirmed that her pregnancy was intact. Praise God for His intervening hand in this woman's life. As a result from this testimony, more people are drawn to God and our church numbers have increased.
