We received it the day before we left.  God is faithful! Thank you, supporters!

The crusade was a great success! We had crowds ranging from 10,000-18,000 people nightly and hundreds responded each evening to receive Jesus as their Savior and Lord! We also witnessed many dramatic healings and heard compelling testimonies from many of those who had received them.

With tears streaming down his face, one father gave the testimony that his daughter, who had a hole in the top of her head because of 2 surgeries to remove a brain tumor, was instantly healed. He felt her head and the hole had disappeared! We will never forget the look on his face as he was telling the crowd what Jesus had done for his little girl! That testimony made all the effort to go and all the money we raised worth it!

Also, at the Women’s Conference, there was a young pregnant lady (Rosanah) who arrived early and looked depressed.  Lisa went to talk to her and found out she had just been diagnosed with AIDS.  She was married with a seven year old daughter and had not been unfaithful, nor a drug user.  She worked as a biologist and wondered if she may had contracted the disease through her work.  Lisa had all the ladies who were on our team gather around her and pray for her.  Lisa hugged her and told her God was her healer.  Lisa also told her the conference was especially for her.  Rosanah then told Lisa she wasn’t even from Bani, but heard about the conference and crusade!  She cried and received so much from the conference.  She even attended the crusade that night.  We called her up on stage and Hal prayed for her again, but we did not tell the crowd what was wrong with her.  We did not want to embarrass her.  She has a renewed faith and knows that God has healed her!  (She is even going to name her baby Lisa, if it’s a girl!)

Thank you for your prayers and for your support! Because of you, Bani will never be the same again!

God bless you, and we hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
