Dear Friends,

He is risen, the tomb is empty! Glory to God!

INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY LIVE BROADCAST
Pastor Washington Mujuruki (United Kingdom) shared this Easter Sunday on “The Resurrection Power of Christ”. He said it gives us an assurance that in His second coming He is going to take the church but right now we need to make sure that our lives are in right standing with God. The resurrection power is explosive, dynamite power. You are facing a dead situation in your life but this power can turn it around. He testified that he was involved in fatal road accident, suffered multiple fractures but after prayers and the power of God he began to walk again. This resurrection power is not restricted by distance or Geography. Expectation is the breeding ground for miracles. With God all things are possible. He began to command healing in the name of Jesus and rebuking various illnesses.

TRINIDAD & TOBAGO
"He is risen", we give glory to God for such a precious gift of salvation as we join the FIF family to celebrate Easter. We had a wonderful week of preparation for the weekend. Friday night we shared on the importance of our salvation. Sunday we continued with the same spirit as the Pastors shared on mercy. We had time to testify on how the cross changed us and we saw some believers shedding tears in appreciation to their God. After service we had time to eat and fellowship and there was so much joy in the church.

We want to thank God for a week of Good News which culminated with Resurrection Sunday. We water baptised 5 candidates on Monday. The Tuesday Ladies Prayers was attended by 11 ladies. On Good Friday night we had an attendance of 47. Our Resurrection Sunday had 67 in attendance. It was a powerful Sunday with a timely message of Easter. Notable testimonies:
A lady after being told by her doctor that her condition called sickle cell was incurable was miraculously touched and healed by God after being prayed for by our Pastor. She said her pain disappeared.
A certain man who had lost power in his legs and would lose balance and fall came to receive the Holy Spirit and left the pulpit walking upright.
The joy was overwhelming when many came forward to be Holy Spirit filled and 5 were baptised by the Holy Spirit and began to speak in new tongues. Glory to God. Pray for us as we look forward to a blessing of a bigger bus and that we buy our own place for worship.

TEACHING: PART OF BABA & AMAI'S MESSAGE

Please note we are repeating this series:

My request to you, can you be my disciple. I need disciples. Jesus stayed with them 3 years. I need disciples so when I get old they will see me in you. Our enemy is our character. Character you don’t change by fasting but by making decision to change and begin to change. When we preached the Kingdom of God in Harare, people prospered and gave to the Lord but a new generation came and preached their own gospel and the people went into poverty. Why not preach the Kingdom of God. If you are my disciple, why not learn from me, follow, me as I follow Christ. The key is to be a disciple. Deal with your character. God bless you.

We love you and are praying for you,
