Pastor Nestor

Pastor Nestor stayed after class one Friday to report on his medical condition - kidney stones. We have been helping with the costs. Then he told us he was planning to preach on life-dominating sin. He shared some of what was happening in his church that led him to this decision. We had a time of prayer together before he left. We received the following texts (edited from cell phone spelling!)

Ptr Paul, Good PM. I have a wonderful testimony... I preached last Sunday the issue of life-dominating sin. 30 persons got repented and recommitted themselves to the Lord when I made a challenge for an altar call. Tears are flowing and joy of grace was heard when they shout Hallelujah!
The wonderful thing is my wife and I discuss it Saturday night, we repent before God that night. We felt God’s favor by that night. Therefore it was also same favor that the church received last Sunday.
Thank you so much that when I pray for a minister’s life enhancement, God provide Life Discipleship program and thank God that both of you with Sis Patty were sent by God to become part of life and ministry.

Please pray for this gentle man. Pray that he may continue to lead his people into the ways of God, obedient to all that Jesus commanded us - Matt 28:20
