Our team from University of the Nations in Kona has been working with a local YWAM base in Lautoka, Fiji since our arrival last month. We've been busy with visitation outreaches door to door here and in surrounding communities. We have seen God do miracles and add numerous individuals into His Kingdom. We've been asked to minister in local churches.
One very unique cultural expression of God's family was mostly an Indian congregation led by an Indian pastor/taxi driver Dennison met downtown while trying to get a ride to the hospital to get an x-ray for his leg he injured at the YWAM base in Vunayasi. Nischel Deo invited us to come to his church. Five of us went and shared testimonies and prayed for many in the congregation after the message. A mute boy spoke the Name, Jesus, for the first time after prayer.
Part of our team helped build a church on a hill above a town called Ba about an hour from Lautoka with daily door to door evangelism in the neighboring homes among the hilly region. They had their first service this past Sunday morning. Some of our ladies were praying on the hill above the new building and were assaulted with rocks thrown at them by the local witch doctor who was threatened by the presence of God's love in what he believes is his territory.
Children's evangelistic efforts have been thronged by kids every day. The Jesus skit has been touching lives as well as a skit setting a young man free from sin through the Word of God. Bill and Byung Su (Joe) spent a few days working with a youth camp teaching the Plumbline principles with amazing impact. Dennison was able to share with a group of students preparing for missions at the Vunayasi YWAM base; and Sally taught a group of young future teachers at a local school. We've been through the usual introductory abdominal infirmities and are now moving ahead in health.
