STEP BY STEP WORLD OUTREACH MINISTRIES PRAISE REPORTS

Special Note: We are tremendously excited about how God is using STEP-BY-STEP WORLD OUTREACH MINISTRIES (and all those precious frontline soldiers for Jesus united with them in third world nations) so mightily in sharing the Good News of the Gospel and reaching lost souls around the world, and God wants Precious Testimonies to assist them. We highly encourage everyone who wants to be used of the Lord in reaching the lost to notify them directly to be placed on their almost DAILY praise report -exciting Christian news - email UPDATES list. It's FREE of course, and will cost you nothing. We will post many of those amazing praise reports, to help give God glory, and their ministry extra exposure.

Furthermore, the more you pray for their ministry needs in God using them to reach lost souls for Jesus around the world ... you will be storing up rewards in heaven. God promises it! (See: Matt. 6:19-22; Mark 9:41). Who of us don't want as many rewards as God desires to give us once we get to heaven, right?!

UPDATE: MYANMAR

Evangelist Joseph went to a village and did a follow up visit with 21 people that had received a Tract and CD about 2 months ago. 12 of the people that Joseph followed up with received Jesus as savior! The “FOLLOW UP” is a very very important part of using Tools in personal evangelism. Joseph also said the Real Life Stories Book in Burmese should be printed sometime in September.

UPDATE PHILIPPINES; New Outreach is being Birthed

Pastor Elmerson Libre Palabirca of Jesus Christ the Only Way to Heaven Ministries of Davao City in the Philippines recently received the Witnessing Made Easy Evangelism Training materials and sample Outreach Tools. Pastor Elmerson studied the materials and applied the teachings and has started using the sample Outreach Tracts. See Pastor Elmerson's email below:

"Dear Evangelist Jim, Blissful day! So sorry for the delay of my mission report, yet I pray you will consider the Philippines for this powerful ministry of Step By Step. I would like to thank God for the powerful Gospel Tracts.
When I gave and distributed the yellow Tracts, I was able to explain to them how Jesus filled the void within them; most of them can understand and read English. So right then, these recipients in the photos accepted Jesus and trusted Jesus as Savior and God.

"I have been making the translation into Cebuano version for the yellow gospel Tracts. I hope I can produce initially with my small budget here. About the price of CD burning and printing of yellow Gospel Tracts. Last week I went to two printing shops here yet I have to seek for lower prices so that I can finalize the pricing for our reference and prayers.
God keep you in His protection, always! In the Harvest, Pastor Elmerson Libre Palabrica; Jesus Christ-The Only Way To Heaven Ministries, Inc.; Davao City, Philippines"

Greetings Prayer Intercessors and Ministry Friends: Pastor Sadiq -- the Tract, Tape and CD Outreach Leader for Pakistan #2, was led by God to go into a new area and Train Pastors and Leaders to use the Tracts, Tapes, CDs and Real Life Stories books to reach THE lost. Please read his email below of this Training Seminar.

Dear Pastor Jim,

Greetings! Praise the Lord that God has opened the door to another province of Pakistan. This is near to Iran. We had the 1^st Great Commission Institute (GCI) Training from April 22 to 25, 2009. This Training was for the Pastors and Leaders in Quetta City. By the grace of God I introduced to the Pastors and Leaders the methods and Tools (Tracts, Tapes and CDs) of Step By Step Ministries Evangelism. This city is called Balochistan. It is the largest province of Pakistan. God put this vision in my heart to train these Pastors and leaders for the great commission.

I told the Pastors and leaders how many people are accepting Jesus Christ by the Step By Step Tract, Tapes and CDs. People were very happy by the training, and many Pastors told us that they were blessed by the Training.

There were 35 people who participated in this training. Please pray for the Pastors and Leaders to use the Tracts, Tapes, CDs and books for Gods Kingdom.

Please pray for me and for my Team. God sent us there safely and brought us back safely. It takes 24 hours by train to get there.

Thanks for the prayers. God bless you!

Your brother, Pastor Sadiq

Dear Rev. Jim and Carla,

In sending this report, you can’t imagine the joy I have from our visit to the beach. Really - it is my very first time since I started working for God to see the harvest instantly like today!!! Praise God!!!!

This beach is the only one we have in Bujumbura and many, many people gather there on the weekends and even on holidays. So today our Outreach Team went there and distributed over 2000 Tracts. There were 10 who got saved while we were there. Please join me in prayer for these new babe believers now added to the Kingdom of God!

When we came back in the van we sang AMAZING GRACE! Praying and shouting for the Lord!

Last night I received two calls from persons who got the Tracts at the beach and talked to them and they will come to my house this afternoon for more info about Jesus!!! Hallelujah!!! Thank you Jesus!!!!

Today I still received calls and text messages to ask me questions and to meet and help people that we gave the Tracts to at the beach. Even yesterday I received during our weekly meeting at the church two young men who came to ask me for spiritual help and wanted water baptism.

Hallelujah for the Lord!! Again thank you Rev. Jim and Carla for this vision!!!!

"The Tract, Tape and CD Outreach of Myanmar which is led by Rev. Joseph, added almost 30 new souls into the BOOK OF LIFE! As Rev. Joseph read the message on the Tract to a congregation of people, about 30 young people gave their lives to Jesus. PRAISE GOD!

"I have played the CD on one occasion and 20 people received Christ. God's mighty power to save sinners is real!

"Sir, thanks for your Tract and CD. I am waiting to get Joseph’s translation of the Real Life Stories Book in the Burmese language.

"Within two months, my new church has grown to 65 persons. All have been saved through the Tracts and CDs provided by your ministry, STEP-BY-STEP WORLD OUTREACH.

Sincerely,

Van Nun

Step-By-Step World Outreach Ministries would like to introduce a new Tract, Tape and CD Outreach. Praise God!!!

Brother Naeem Nasir is leading this new Outreach in the area Pakistan # 5. We have the first pictures and testimonies from this Outreach. Please read his email below, the testimonies and see the pictures (PT Staff note: Photos will get posted on the Pakistan News Site) of the first fruits from this Tract, Tape and CD Outreach.

Dear Brother Jim: These are the very first testimonies from using the Tracts, Tapes and CDs to reach the lost. - Brother Naeem

My name is Sohail. I live in Lahore. I received a Tape and Tract from Brother Naeem. It was astonishing to hear the Word of God. It gave me power to understand the Word of God. When I played this Tape I was not expecting that I would hear the complete Word. I did not go to Church every Sunday. But now I promised to God that I will pray regularly and I will go to Church every Sunday. Thanks Brother Naeem.

I am an Elder in the FGA Church in Lahore. My name is Barkat. I received this CD from Brother Naeem. It is a very great message. I liked it very much. I am already serving Jesus Christ but it gave me more knowledge of the Word of God. It helped me to understand how I can share the Word.

I am a Pastor. My name is Shabaz. I received this CD from Brother Naeem. It is the best experience of life to hear the Word of God. It was full of the Holy Spirit. I was feeling great when I was hearing this.

My name is Ansar. I am a married man. I don’t have children. Eleven years before I got married. I never went to Church. Even I don’t know how to pray. I smoked and drank. Brother Naeem asked me, do you want to hear the Word of God and do you want to know that God. I was laughing and I said yes. I was just making fun of him. I received this CD. And after some days I played it. It touched my heart. Then I sat very near and started hearing with care. It changed my life. I was so impressed with it. I also said to my wife and my other family members to hear this. They were all very happy to see the change in me. Now I believe that He will give me children soon.

My name is Sakander. I was very bad boy. Even I am just 17 years old I smoked and drank and took drugs also. I completed study only on five classes because of some financial problems I left the school. When I saw Brother Naeem he was distributing the CDs, Tapes and Tracts. I was laughing and thinking why is this young man doing this. When I talked to him and I asked him who are you and what are you doing this and what is your purpose of this work? He said to me that God sent me here to save you. I started laughing at him. I said to him that from which person do you want to save me from. He said to me that the devil wants to kill you and wants to destroy your life. I said to him ok you can give me this CD. He said you can take it and but don’t waste it play it and hear what God wants to say to you and how He can save you from the devil. When I listened to the CD it was very great and very awesome. It touched my heart. Now I want to take baptism. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior of life. Now I believe on His death, on water baptism, on the Holy Spirit and His risen from death.

My name is Manawar. I received this Real Life Stories Book from Brother Naeem. When I was reading the testimonies of people I was very impressed. I was so happy read this Book. It is a wonderful Book. It changed my life.

My name is Amir. I was a smoker and drinker and also took a lot of drugs. I never thought that I could live without these things. But when I received this CD and Tract from Brother Naeem it touched my heart. Now I want to serve Christ in my life. He is a great and Holy God. He loves us. Now I have accepted Him as my Savior of life.

My name is Sagar. My mother died one and half years before. I am 15 years old now. After my mother passed I started to smoke and drink. I left my school even though I was a very intelligent student. Because of financial problems I did not complete my study. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior when I read this Tract. I can read Urdu but I can’t read English. I was very impressed with this very interesting way to understand God.

My name is Shakeel. Brother Naeem wanted to give me a CD but I told him that I don’t have a CD player. So he gave me this Tract. Even I didn’t know what this is what people say? But thank God that I can read Urdu. I read and I liked it very much. It touched my heart. Brother Naeem also helped me to understand it. He sat with me almost one hour and helped me so much.

I am Kamran. I am 14 years old. I am a student. I never went to Church. My life was very sad. Brother Naeem was talking to me telling me about the Word of God. He said to me that why you are wasting your time in bad works. Read this and you will find the God. I received it and I read it and it was a very great and fantastic experience in my life. I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Savior of my life.

Step By Step World Outreach Ministries Lima Peru trip was very fruitful and we first want to thank everyone that was praying for us and the nation of Peru. This trip was probably covered in more prayer than any trip that we have ever been on and it was very evident to us as we ministered.

Four complete days were spent in four different parts of Lima Peru ministering to four different Pastoral Associations. In all, we were able to bring the Word to over 500 Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers during those four days. During these training sessions the convicting power of the Holy Spirit was felt greatly and many were brought to a place of tears and repentance for their part in not establishing witnessing Churches. But more important than the repentance was the commitment of the Leaders to now make changes.

One Apostle over a group of about 150 Leaders told us that he had never heard such a revelation on the Gift of the Evangelist and how that Gift was so important in the local Church. He said in all my many many years of ministry and all the messages I have heard from Leaders all over the world I have never heard this Truth about the Gift of the Evangelist. And I know it is true because you presented it directly from the Word of God. This Apostle also said I love the idea of Take 5s, this is a God Idea. So then Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Romans 10:12

At the beginning of each Leadership Meeting we asked how many Evangelists do we have with us today? At each meeting there would be about 5-8 in each of the four days who would identify themselves as Evangelists. After teaching on “The Equipping Evangelist” and sharing all of the duties the Evangelist should have in the local Church, I then asked in each meeting is there anyone here who is working as an Equipping Evangelist as described in Ephesians Chapter 4? There was not one person that raised their hands as an Equipping Evangelist in the local Church in any of the four days. I pointed this out each day to the Leaders present that not one Equipping Evangelist in the local Church was present. You could see the look of amazement on their faces as they came to the understanding that one of the Gifts that Jesus gave the Church in the form of the Equipping Evangelist was not found in any of their Churches.

At the end of each of the four days of the Leadership Meetings after a thorough explanation of what an Equipping Evangelist is and does a call was given to these Leaders for those that Jesus had given to the Church to arise to their feet and come forth to accept their call. Over 100 of these Leaders responded to the call of “Evangelist Come Forth”. Of those that answered this call we heard it said many times that this teaching has opened up my eyes to things of God’s Word that my eyes had been closed to before.

Prior to us leaving for Peru several of you that have been praying for us said that you felt that God was going to do a new thing in our ministry on this trip. That came to pass as God had me teach on the 5 Fold Ministry in a way that I had never taught on it before. I did not know this prior to our trip but some teachings on Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers had brought division in the Churches in Peru. One group has taken the position that there are no Apostles or Prophets today and the other group has taken the position that the Apostles and Prophets have all the authority in the local Church. Neither of these two positions is correct because they both go against what the scripture says. The teaching that God gave me on the 5 Fold Ministry while in Peru brought balance because it completely lines up with the Word of God. One Pastor told me after hearing the teaching that he believes the teaching God gave me to speak was a revelation not only for Peru but also for the whole body of Christ and that this presentation on the need for using all 5 of the Gifts in the Church was done in such a way that it eliminated the fear some leaders have in using all 5 Gifts in the Church.

During these four days 40,000 Tracts and 1,000 CDs were distributed to the Leaders to take back to their home Churches to teach their congregation how to use them. Under the leading of the Holy Spirit with some input of some of the Leaders in Peru we have decided to furnish Tracts and CDs for a season of time to seven Churches. Pastor Jorge will be visiting these seven Churches again in the near future and he will give each Church 5,000 Tracts and 100 CDs along with very specific and very detailed instructions on how to use them properly to reach the lost.

Please cover these seven Churches with prayer. We will furnish you the names of these Churches and Leaders for your Prayer support soon.

The people in Peru accepted the Dance very well. They really loved it. They liked it when I would explain to them the words to the song before I did the Dances. Pastor Jorge’s wife, Gloria said one day, we love to watch the Dance, we appreciate that you explained that you need to dress appropriately for the Dance Ministry. They had seen some Dance Ministries that did not dress properly and it was distracting to many people. They said when we come back they would want teachings on the Dance Ministry so the people in the Churches could have an understanding of the Dance Ministry. They could see that it was a very worshipful Ministry. Gloria said even the songs you danced to, you were worshipping as you were Dancing, and they know that it is Biblical and very Holy. I prayed over one of the Dance Teams there to impart to them more of what the Lord had for them with the Dance Ministry. We got to see one Dance Team perform while we were there. I took a picture of them with me and a few pictures of them performing. Then there was one girl from Pastor Jorge’s Church who Danced during worship. Pastor Jorge’s Church also had a Drama Team and they did a funny drama about Jonah and the whale. The people were very welcoming and excited that we were there. At the end of the services many would come and hug us or shake our hands. This was one place where very few people spoke English. But God made a way for us. We had a few problems with interpreters. We had three that were really good and two that were exceptional who when we go back we hope they can interpret for us again. There seemed to be a connection in the Spiritual Realm with them.

Jim, Carla and Ed spent some of their free time visiting different parts of the city and everywhere they went they gave CDs with the messages, “Are You A Good Person” and “Is There Something Missing In Your Life”, and Real Life Stories Books. They gave out over 100 CDs and 40 Real Life Stories Books to people from all walks of life, to people they met in the hotels, restaurants, taxi drivers, policemen and people in the street. What they found was that from the very poorest to the very wealthiest all received the CDs and Books with excitement. Not one person refused a CD or Book. As always the Real Life Stories Book was the biggest hit and was received with great joy.

We have many great pictures of people receiving these Books and CDs and you can see them at the link below.

As we are coming in on the bus from the airport these are just a few of the great moments that come to memory. I am sure we will be hearing great reports from Pastor Jorge and others from Lima Peru and we will keep you posted as we receive them.

Thank you to those who supported us financially and helped us purchase the 100,000 Tracts and 2,000 CDs and sow into the lives of those in Lima Peru.

At this time we have trips scheduled to London in July, Ecuador in August, London again in September and will be going back to Peru a couple times over the next year. Please pray for us to have the mind of the Lord to know which country to go to and when to be there.

We have over 200 pictures from this trip if you would like to see them just go to this link to view them

Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,

Thanks for your prayers and thanks for your financial support together with the words of courage, inspiration and hope. They have made me personally to stand strong and serve the Lord wholeheartedly. I have photos for the Tract printing and for the mission trip and training.

One big request by the new church we planted in Wangobo, which the Christians in the area named "Step-By-Step Church", we were enticed to go back and we organized a training conference for four days. Through the pastor of the church and the local leaders of the area, many people were mobilized. It was very nice and we witnessed the hand of God doing mighty wonders. We used all our ministry Tools (Tracts, Tapes, DVDs and the Real Life Stories Books).

We then took the Tracts out to the village. A little story about this village, it was a village with many witch doctors, but GLORY goes back to God that we managed to penetrate the village and the nearby villages and with the power of God even the chairperson of the village finally confessed and gave his life to Christ.

God has done wonders in this place and we have been called to a nearby village to go and open up a church and soon as I can organize to go over and teach and distribute Tracts then we will see the impact. In this last mission 70 people gave their lives to Christ and we only thank God for His Grace and Mercy.

The use of these Evangelism Tools (Tracts, Tapes and CDS) has become a challenge to other ministers who invest resources in open crusades as they see no better results as compared to this method of Evangelism using the Tracts, Tapes and CDs. They have kept on moving to my side and I have taught many and gave them Tracts and they are appreciative.

I thank you Jim for you have been a key mentor in this ministry, you have sparked off the fire and we should not let the fire down. Let us be encouraged, have our focus on God then we shall see the answer come true.

I love you all and I wish you all God's blessings,

Yours, Pastor David Tusubira

Dear Jim: My name is Abudull. I met Pastor David at a Barbering Shop when he was telling a group of boys about Christ. He gave me a Tract and I read it.

After that he prayed for us. He said to me do you want to give your life to Christ, I said no. He asked me, where is your house, and I showed him where I am living with my uncle. Three days later he came and he asked the same question and I said no again. He gave me a CD. After 1 week I was sick and my father took me to the village and had made some charms for me to protect me. One with a rope on my wrist and one in plastic to cut the joint of my body and apply it there and one in a bottle to rub my body. I have used these things for years and there are no results at all. The last time Pastor David met me I was coming from the hospital and the doctor said that my sickness can only be cured traditionally.

They told me to meet a certain old woman. I was going to this old woman when I met Pastor David telling some people about Christ and he saw me and said Abudull where are you going. I told him and he said don’t go anywhere, my Jesus can help you. He prayed for me and I gave those things to him and I am ok now. I gave my life to Christ. Thank you God for the Outreach Team that God has used to help me. I am ready to work in the harvest.

Thanks

Dear Jim: I am Sajo. I met Pastor Kati and for a very long time he has been telling me to give my life to Christ. But because of my problem I did not. Then one day he gave me a Tract and I did not pay any attention to it. And then he gave me a CD. When I heard the message it was like God was talking to me. The following day I called him and said to him, this is my problem. The doctors say that I have Aids and Cycle Cell and they said that I cannot bear a child. He told me that is not a problem, that God will heal me and also give me a child. He prayed for me and the church prayed for me. Two weeks later I went to the hospital and the doctor said that my exam had changed and asked me what happened. I said I don’t know.

I came to the pastor and said you can see what the doctor said. And he said yes, Jesus has done it for you! To my surprise I am also pregnant and they said if I was to get pregnant I would die. The pastor said you will not die, you will have your baby. Thanks to Jesus, thanks to the Outreach Team that was so patient. Today God has given me a male child.

I am happy. I will follow Jesus all my life. Thanks.

1000 copies of the messages "Do You Every Feel Like There Is Something Missing In Your Life?” and "Are You A God Person?” have been produced on Audio Tape in the language of Mano in Liberia. Pastor Gahn will soon take these Audio Tapes to the Nimba area and hold a Conference to Train Pastors and Leaders.

Here is an INCREDIBLE testimony Pastor Gahn has included in this brief update from his country:

I am (name withheld to protect her from undue harm). Before I came to know the Lord as my Savior, I lived a terrible life. I was fully initiated into the witchcraft society to represent my whole family. This was an agreement on behalf of my family. This was done at the death of my mother during her burial.

To be a powerful representative, I had to offer live human beings. As a member, I was left with no option but to do what was requested. I killed my four daughters who were still virgins. By doing this bit, I was promoted to a very high occult organization in my country, Nimba. I held this position from 1998 to 2009.

After giving my four children, I was now in the position to demand the number of living human beings for occult practices. I drank human blood commonly as part of securing power. I used a broom and cassava pealing for the ritual of getting to places I wanted to travel. Based on my bravery and uncompromising work in witchcraft, I was placed in even a higher position within my organization in December 2007. This position I was to hold until 2011.

When I listened to the Tape from Step-By-Step World Outreach Ministry of Liberia Branch, I saw the reality of my life.

My first encounter with Christ was December 2008, when I was sent to put confusion between Pastor Freeman and Pastor Joshua to break them apart in the church. The reason I took this assignment was to bring back my occult members that went to that church.

When I entered the church on December 24, 2008, the first thing I did was to stop the generator from generating current. The Pastor was out of the church. But when I saw him coming into the building, there was a fire surrounding him, which was too much for me. I decided to leave, but it was too late for me. I was stopped and was taken through deliverance, but I was not saved until I listened to the tape from Step-By-Step World Outreach Ministry of Liberia Branch. It was through that tape that I saw the reality of my life.

Thank God for saving me! If you are reading this and asking, "Is it real? Yes it is! That is what I was involved with. But Jesus is all powerful, and came to rescue me from this, and He can do it for you. If you want to experience the deliverance and salvation I have, say this simple prayer:

Jesus - forgive me. I have sinned against You. I have disobeyed you. I believe you died for my sins. Come into my heart and be my Savior and Lord.

Thank you Lord for saving me. Help me go to church regularly; read my Bible daily, and share my faith with others.

Please read below an email from Evangelist Michelle who answered the call as an Ephesians Chapter 4 Evangelist on our first trip to Puerto Rico. She is now working as the in house evangelist at her home church where she is teaching them to use the “Witnessing Made Easy” Tools.

Dear Jim and Carla,

God bless you powerfully during this New Year 2009. Good news! I've continued to work under the obedience of our Almighty God, reaching out to the lost here in Puerto Rico.

I've been giving the 5 minute segments on Evangelism every Sunday at my local church as I've been led by the Lord. Two weeks ago I spoke to the congregation about not forgetting what the real reason for the Christmas season really is.....Jesus. And that the best Christmas gift we could give was the Gift of Salvation, that we had to take the Good News of Salvation to the lost.

I told them during the segment, once more, the work I was doing taking the Evangelism CDs (the ones you left me upon your last visit) to restaurants, post office, stores, and even leaving them in restrooms everywhere I went. I extended an invitation for anyone who desired to do the same to help by purchasing blank CDs and giving them to me, that somehow we would find the way to reproduce them all and give them back to the church so everyone could have the chance to give them out when they go places.

I received awesome feedback from people who were amazed at how simple it seemed for them to do the same and that they wanted to help. One man walked up to me and handed me some money and said, "Here, so you can buy CDs." When I looked, it was a 100 dollar bill. As I thanked him, another man told me the same and handed me a 5 dollar bill and promised to help with more later.

People were excited. With that money, I purchased 200 blank CDs, cases, and labels. Last Sunday I was able to give to the church the first 100 CDs for them to go out and evangelize with. This Sunday I will take the other 100.

I pray to God that the church's eyes have been opened completely and will continue with their help in order to keep taking the message of forgiveness and salvation to Puerto Rico.

Thanks for your motivation and for teaching me this Evangelism strategy.

My husband and mom helped to reproduce the first 100 and I made the other 100 myself. I will keep working with God's help.
Your spiritual daughter

Sir,

Greetings to you in the name of Jesus who saved me yesterday through your Tract. I have never seen and met Joseph but I have received the Tract. In the contract address I have seen Rev. Joseph’s name. Sir, I would like to introduce myself. My name if Miss Van Nun, first year university student. My life was really full with difficulties and troubles always. My parents passed away when I was 2 years old. I had only seen my parents in pictures. I was always discouraged and sad about my parentless life. I lived with my uncle's family, they are so good to me but I always was sad and cried for my life. I was always searching for the fullness of a luxurious life. I understand that I needed something that was missing or needs or emptiness in my life but I did not know how to fill or get that peaceful life. But, now, I have found a greatest Father, precious life, meaningful life through Joseph's Tract. Now, my life is filled with peace and is a rejoicing life. No one and not any other things could give me peace like this and rejoicing in my life. Now, I have found the real life in Christ.

Sir, I really want to thank to Rev. Joseph even though I have not yet seen him, I hope I will be able to meet him. I strongly believe that He is the one who really loves God and is faithful in his work.

I received the Tract from an old lady who was already saved to Christ through Joseph's sharing with the Tract and Joseph gave her five copies of the Tract to share with others. So, when I visited her, she gave me one copy of the Tract and I read it. I was a Christian but I went to the church only on Christmas day. But, now, I have decided to go church regularly and share my experience with others of my non-Christian friends in the university. The old lady shared with me about Joseph and also how she received Christ and her life experience after believed God.

Thank God, Thank Jim and Thank Joseph. I will call Joseph and contract with him.
God's New Child,
Van Nun

All the Prayer Updates that you have been receiving and praying over since November 2008 have been beautifully added to and displayed on the web site of our Ministry Friends at Precious Testimonies. You can click on this link to see them.

http://www.precious-testimonies.com/StepByStepWorld/StepbyStepNationsOutreach.htm

Just today I had 2 new people request to receive the Daily Prayer Updates. A friend of theirs said he was so blessed and encouraged by what he read he wanted others to have the same opportunity so he told them about it.

Send the above link to all your email contacts. People need to be encouraged in the things of God. People need to see that we can make a difference in the life of another person simply by sharing a Tract, a Tape, a CD, a Book or a kind word or deed.

These Prayer Updates are now being received by over 2000 people in 50 nations and the PRAYERS of the Saints are making a big big difference.

Thanks to all for praying !!!

Over the last 14 weeks we have sent 574 complete Evangelism Teaching Packages containing the "Witnessing Made Easy" Teachings to Spanish Speaking Churches or Ministries in 21 Spanish Speaking Nations. Everything in these packages was in Spanish except for the book "Real Life Stories", it is only available in English at this time. Many of the Churches and Ministries that received these packages requested a copy of the book in Spanish, but we were not able to provide it. I believe the demand for the book in Spanish is telling us that we must move on getting this book translated into Spanish.

Saints we need you all to pray.

We need God to raise up the right person to do the translation for the “Real Life Stories Book” from English to Spanish.

We need a person that has mastered both the English and the Spanish languages so the translation is done without losing any of the meaning of the original English book.

In the last 60 days we have received invitations to teach our Award Winning ”Witnessing Made Easy” Evangelism Methods in the following Spanish Speaking Nations:

Argentina

Costa Rico

Ecuador

Colombia

Peru

Paraguay

Dominica Republican

England a Spanish church in London

Saints thank you for praying for us to have the Mind of the Lord in regards to where to go and when to go.

The Father has confirmed the first invitation we are to accept, it is in Peru and we will be going there around April 21, 2009 thru April 29, 2009.

God has connected us to a wonderful pastor by the name of Jorge Alberto Chavez Juarez who has been coordinating the meetings and the arrangement of all details.

On Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings and afternoons we will be presenting the “Witnessing Made Easy” Teachings and “How to Establish Tract, Tape and CD Outreaches” to 3 different Pastors Associations in various parts of Lima and outlying areas.

On Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday morning and Sunday night we will be presenting the “Witnessing Made Easy” Teachings to the members of Apostle Samuel Grove’s Church, Rivers of Living Water, in the Zarate District of Lima.

Dear Jim,

THANK GOD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE AGAIN THROUGH THE BURMESE TRACT.
Sir, greetings to you and other prayer friends all over the world. I went to share the Gospel with our Tract yesterday. I met six young people in a group and shared with them God's mighty power. All of them received Christ as their personal Savior and Lord. How great work of our Tract in Myanmar. They all are college students and were surviving their lives without hope. But now they have found hope for their lives.

Among them, one of them had fled from his parent's home because of some depression. But now he realized about life and has hope in Christ. Here is his testimony, his name is Lone.

Dear Jim,

My name is Lone, I am a second year university student and my life was troubled with many things. I was always looking to find peace in my life but I had never found it. And I did not know how to fill my emptiness in my life. There was no hope for me.

But, now through Bro. Joseph's sharing about how to fill this and how to find peace and hope for my life, I really have found Jesus and have full peace in my life. I recognized that Joseph is my spiritual father. I really appreciated his eagerness to share about Jesus to others.

Now, I have decided to go back to my father's home village and share the Gospel to my villagers and friends through Joseph's Burmese translation Tract. I strongly believe that God will do many great things and save millions of people through Joseph. Jim, thanks for your concern to our country's lost people. I will be one of Joseph's Outreach Ministry Workers.

New Born Baby in Christ,
Lone

Sir, this is the testimony of Bro. Lone and his decision for God's to minister around his neighbor villages. I have met him before in his native village but that time he didn't want to accept Christ but now he accepted. PRAISE THE LORD FOR HIS MIGHTY POWER TO SAVE.

Sir, thanks for your prayer and concerned for our family needs.
Blessings, Joseph

Greetings Prayer Intercessors and Ministry Friends,

Below please see pictures (Photos not shown on this site: sorry) of the 20,000 Tracts just printed in the Hindi language for the Nation of India. 60% of the Nation of India speaks Hindi.

Saints please pray for Pastor Jayasen and the team of outreach workers as they go into Northern India to reach the lost.

Pray that each and every Tract will reach a lost soul for JESUS.

Hallelujah, another language to reach the lost!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!!!

Saints we now have the Tracts in the following 17 languages:

Bengali for India	Kinyarwanda for Rwanda
Burmese for Myanmar	Napali for Napal
Creole for Haiti	French
German	Portuguese
Hindi for India	Spanish
Telegu for India	Swahili Africa
Marathai for India	Urdu Pakistan
Oriya for India	Italian
English

And currently being worked on: Chin for Myanmar

There are 2,700 languages that the Bible has not been translated!

This Tract can be translated pretty quickly so that the Good News can be shared!

Saints pray that we will get this Tract translated in every language where an Outreach Leader rises up!!!!

Pray that as we move forward to do what God has called us to do, in getting these Tools in all the Countries of the World, that whoever that Outreach Leader is that God has anointed and appointed in each country, that they will obey the call!!!

Saints please pray that the Real Life Stories Book will be also translated into more languages, at this time it is only in English and the Urdu language in Pakistan. We so need this in other languages, Spanish is the most requested.

We have Spanish Speaking churches and ministries in 20 Nations wanting to use the Real Life Stories Book. We only have it in English. They need it in Spanish.

WE NEED THE PERSON THAT GOD HAS ANOINTED AND APPOINTED TO TRANSLATE THIS BOOK INTO SPANISH TO COME FORWARD AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. WE NEED IT NOW!!!

WE ARE COMMITTED TO PRINTING IT AS SOON AS SOMEONE TRANSLATES IT.

PRAY FOR THE RIGHT PERSON TO STEP UP. NOT JUST ANY ONE CAN DO THIS. THEY MUST BE FLUENT IN BOTH LANGUAGES TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS. IT MUST BE DONE SO THE ORIGINAL CONTENT OF THE BOOK IS NOT CHANGED. IT MUST BE DONE IN PURE SPANISH NO SLANG, NO SPANGLISH.

Matthew 24:14
And this good news of the kingdom (the Gospel) will be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then will come the end.

Saints please each day keep the Outreach Leaders and their families covered in prayer:

Pray for them to be obedient to God’s Word.

Pray for them to know the guiding of the Holy Spirit.

Pray for their safety, many are in very very dangerous areas.

Pray for provision of all their needs and all the Tools to reach the lost.

Pray for them to be able to withstand the battles that come from being on the frontlines of working to bring in the harvest.

Saints they count on your prayers to get them through.

Thanks you for your prayers.

Keep praying for us to know just what God wants us to do.

Thanks, Evangelist Jim and Carla

Be earnest and unwearied and steadfast in your prayer [life], being [both] alert and intent in [your praying] with thanksgiving. And at the same time pray for us also, that God may open a door to (Cuba) for us for the Word (the Gospel), to proclaim the mystery concerning Christ (the Messiah) on account of which I am in prison; That I may proclaim it fully and make it clear [speak boldly and unfold that mystery], as is my duty.

Thanks for praying, God bless you abundantly.
