More ministry in Nadi - Team A

The team here in Nadi is doing great....

They are touching the lives of people everyday and God is also touching them in a very special way. He sure is doing a great work in and through each one of them. We keep hearing how outreach is 5% outreach and 95% inreach. Is that ever true! We are seeing them grow and be stretched in many ways. It really is a blessing to see how God faithfully guides them each day and how willing and open they are to His leading.

The children are doing amazing... each one is willing to do whatever is asked of them. They are sharing Christ in such powerful ways and what prayer warriors they are. These are mighty men, women and children of God. Please continue to pray for them as they step out each day willing to go wherever the Lord leads.

The ladies had an opportunity to spend time in the maternity ward... praying, encouraging and rubbing the backs of some women in labor. The next day they returned with gifts for the newborn babies.

Some of team spent time praying with this lovely lady. She was a patient at the hospital


Ministry at the Park in Nadi Town


On Tuesday the team went to a park in Nadi town to share the love of Jesus with the people. They sang songs and Melodie did a beautiful dance. You could sense the Holy Spirit touch the entire place as Melodie began to dance. People were drawn to the area and the team. Then God said go and talk with the people.

Janet felt led to go and talk to a man named Bill. It was clear that he was sad and lonely. While talking to him Janet discovered that his marriage had failed 9 years ago and for 7 of those years he blamed God. Janet shared that Jesus loved him and had been there beside him when all those things happened. After sharing the gospel and her personal testimony Janet gave him a gospel track and prayed for him.

Bill told Janet he didn’t know whey He had come to the park. He had just felt drawn to come. Janet shared with Bill a picture she had during her prayer time that morning and he said that describes me – that’s me!

In tears, he told Janet that he knew God had called Janet to speak to him that day and thanked her for sharing Christ with him. The Lord definitely has his hand on Bill, please pray that He will seek the Lord with all his heart.
