Born and raised in South Africa, We spent 24 years
ministering in various parts of SA prior to the
current wave of revival. We co-pastored a fellowship
in Johannesburg (Now Egoli in Gouteng) and
ministered, wherever God opened doors, holding
teaching seminars and weekend meetings.
My wife and I headed a gospel singing group for 3
years, during which we ministered inter-
denominationally. We began to develop a heart for
people from all different persuasions. Methodist,
Baptist, Catholic, Anglican, Congregational,
Pentecostal, were some of the churches we ministered in.
Our meetings were anointed and we had powerful
manifestations of God's presence and occasionally,
someone would get filled with laughter. But never on
the scale that it is today. In 1990, the year I
received the refreshing touch of the Holy Spirit, my
wife and I traveled in SA for about 9 months, prior
to coming to the USA.
Since then, revival fires have spread across the
nation. I recently had the priveledge to go to SA and
held a week long revival (13 meetings in all) at New
Life Church in Sandton with Pastor Sam Stark. What
a blessing it was to see so many people touched
including the black folk.
Many of the folks from the fellowship we co-pastored came and were touched
mightily. Their children, now young adults, were also
greatly impacted by the meetings. I returned in 1998
for the second time and held meetings in
Johannesburg and with the old fellowship we were
part of.
What great meetings. God touched many lives and it
was exciting to pray for the grown up kids of our
congregation 40 years ago. It is exciting to see what
God is doing in South Africa and know that he has
great plans for our country.
But the USA is where God called us to be and we are
extremely happy and excited to part of His plan for this nation.
