160,000 people baptised in one year
THE more I read, the more I began to see what God is clearly
doing on every continent and corner of His earth. He is building
His church in a very powerful, dramatic way.
In one province in China alone, 160,000 new believers were baptised
in one year! And this is not an isolated example.
American missionary and author David Garrison also carefully examined
powerful movements of the Holy Spirit in India, Africa, the Middle
East, Europe, Latin America and North America which have produced
similarly amazing results all in the last 15 years.
The Methodist Missions Society (MMS) wants to learn from these
experiences. We are bringing together all our MMS missionaries
- currently 22 - for a short retreat at the end of August.
This year we will study Garrison's book together, Church Planting
Movements - How God is Redeeming a Lost World, which draws out
the lessons we can learn from these recent revivals. Pray for
us. - REV DR NORMAN WONG.
