Today marked a tremendous breakthru given by God. Our ‘high school’ had its first School Assembly! Let me explain: we partner with another school who has leased our school facilities for their high school program in the afternoon. Our 8th-10th graders attend here, but our 11th and 12th grades are at the partner school within walking distance to our center – kinda like an ‘overflow’. History has informed us the founder of the partner school (who is no longer living) used to have a witchdoctor perform rituals at the school where these children have attended (and ours attend) at least once a month. In the past month a strange thing has taken place with no explanation: For no apparent reason, many of the school girls are fainting. In one week’s time, a total of 30 girls fainted. No one is hurt, they just faint. The boys are not affected at all.
We, as a Christian Center have been praying for our Lord to open a door for us to be able to bring God into the equation. Finally, the Mozambican Headmaster consented to a School Assembly once a week. Today was the first – 800 students!! It was fantastic and so orchestrated by God. The enemy did try to use a few of the girls to distract from what God was accomplishing.
One of our worship bands did the music and Steve, our Director, stepped forward to tell the students about our center and the faith we stand for. He also told them we would like to introduce them to our Jesus Christ if they did not know Him already. So, the foundation has been layed, and we are trusting God for a mighty revival at the school as time progresses. Baby steps first! We will be victorious!! Your prayers for the future of these students – as they are the future of Mozambique - greatly appreciated.
Praise God! So great!
