we made back in safely from Katela (East Shewa) around 80 KM for Addis Ababa mission today. It was wonderful and Challenging, God has used those challenges to grown our faith. Our Plan was to reach three Kebele in the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and Plant three churches in three Keble’s by providing Veterinary and Medical service freely from the last
Wednesday to today.  But the community rejected us in saying ” we don’t want any servers from PENTE (Protestant religion)” so that we pushed to leave the area the last Thursday.
In the grace and power of God yesterday we had changed our strategy to use one to one Evangelism on the area, that helps us to reach more than 235 people from those 35 people received Christ as their personal savior and Lord from 3: 40 to 4:35 local time, at 4: 35 three missionaries arrested by the the community police, that pushes us to stop at 4:35 our mission.
Immediately they had took them to the Woreda police center. Then me and other two student leaders went their to discuses with the administration and release our missionaries. when we went at the jail they also included me and one leader at jail because they had seen me at the place when I was preaching the gospel on street.
In the mercy of God we had released from the jail after 10 hours in safe.

In generally we have exposed more than 235 people and 35 are received Christ.

The another amazing thing is we have gotten to houses freely to teach the new believers at their in  two Kebele from new believers. One at Katela and the other at RobiGebeya. both of the house owners are received Christ as their Savior and Lord yesterday.
We are sending students with one Evangelist for follow up starting from tomorrow.
Praise the Lord!
Please pray for
1. for the new believers
2. for the whole community may God reveal Himself for them
3. for the evangelist and student who are going to give followup for the new believers that may God give them wisdom.

Thank you for your prayer and Support!

“Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.”  2Timothy 4:2

I went Amaro the place where I was born  480 Km from  the capital city of Ethiopia, Addis Ababa . My plan was to give training about  discipleship and leadership  for the church full-time servants, youth, and the selected discipleship groups by bringing them together in two places called Kelle the main town and Suluko 45 KM far from the main town.

In the grace of God I could manage as follows in the last month my ministry journey at Amaro the place where I was born:

1. we could  train in Discipleship 194 people

50 people in Leadership

more than 467 people about the values of the  word of God,

and in the two conferences  about the  Glory of God and the the life of Christ centered Christianity we could preached more than 8320 peoples.

At the end of  conference more than 50 people assured  about their salvation by confessing in their mouth as written “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved” Romans 10:9-10.

praise the lord!

On behalf of the training I was visited the new life group in three different place and offered 30   Bible for the new Believers.  I was  amazed in the time when visiting the Muslim Family whom are  received Christ with her all kids, except the Husband.

She was confident enough to share Christ, also she has gave her testimony at the conference hall in the next day after my visit.

Finally I was certified 74 peoples who are completed four Great Commission Training materials in the midst of the whole congregation assembly more than 12000 peoples were attended in the certification ceremony. That was a great opportunity for me  to mobilize those peoples  for the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ!

be Glory to our mighty God only!!!

we are planned to training 1300 student leaders on movement building for one week at Adama, Ethiopia 99 KM far from Addis Ababa the Capital City of Ethiopia. Our purpose for the training is to give them Personal vision, National holistic Transformation and Global Mission. Join with us in PRAYER!!!
