Friday and Saturday 9AM to 5PM Pastor/Church Leader Seminar
evenings revival meetings.

Excerpts from a Report from Liana, ministry coordinator in Jakarta:
Our visit to Ambon seems to have ignited the fire that was about to die! God heard our prayers! Wow! It was our cry for Ambon when we prayed during the preparation time. I feel that God is going to do 'something' in Ambon hence all the challenges that we had to go through.

Henry said that since we left the people seemed to 'wake up' from their sleep. They became alive. He said the church was born because of prayer and fasting but then it became a routine and people became lukewarm. Now they're on fire again and they have made a commitment to have a 3 day prayer and fast every month. Around 20 to 30 people made that commitment. Before that only 10 at the most came for prayer and fast!

Teddy said the move of God in that place is like a tsunami! Wave after wave...wow, awesome!! Your teaching was powerful and a great help for them. I think Teddy and Non caught it, also Henry, that's why there is a change in his church. I don't know about the others. I'll find out soon. I got so excited by the news! We have to keep praying for them that the fire keeps on burning!

Sunday 24 October preach in local church, afternoon home visitation, outing to beach, evening with Bible School students and staff.
