CATHOLIC NUN USES CAMPAIGN BOOK

A Catholic nun came into a church to inquire where she could receive the campaign book that has been advertised all over the city. She had talked to her friends about the message in the book, “God Gives You The Power To Change” and promised a copy to each person. The pastor asked how many copies she would like to hand out. She said, “One hundred copies!”

She received one hundred copies and continued on her way happily.

CITY IS ABUZZ

Pastor Dirk said he has seen so many events and campaigns in the city of Mumbai. But he says, “This is the best and the most effective campaign ever in the history of Mumbai in my ministry experience.”

This is absolutely true! Never before in the history of Mumbai churches have we seen this kind of unity and the churches on fire for a single event. This is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
