What happened in Zambia in September is nothing short of historic and miraculous. In one week, we conducted 25 nights of campaigns in five different cities across the nation simultaneously, resulting in hundreds of thousands of salvations and countless testimonies.
This is miraculous, not only for the feat of logistics and engineering that it was – but also because it was executed by a team that had been trained and mobilised entirely through the Christ for all Nations Evangelism Bootcamp. In each of the five cities, two Bootcamp graduate evangelists were stationed. They preached and ministered four of the five nights in their city. Evangelist Daniel Kolenda travelled from campaign to campaign, preaching one night in each location.
Lusaka Kanyama
Evangelists Alejandro Escobar and Jacob Ebersole
On the third night, a young woman came to the platform to testify that she had been HIV positive but had given her life to Jesus at the campaign, and that day she had retested three times and was HIV negative! Evangelist Jacob Ebersole shared, “For a long time she was in darkness, working the streets, and suffering with a lot of pain and sickness. As she was sharing, it broke all of us. Most of us on the platform were in tears. It is a miracle. Christ has literally pulled this girl out of the pit of hell and set her on the solid rock.”
A lady was diagnosed with cancer of the stomach. During prayer for healing on the fourth night, she felt that Jesus had healed her. The next day, a doctor confirmed there was no more cancer, and she testified on the final night of the campaign.
A double miracle! A lady who had breast cancer for three years testified that the cancer was now gone. She was also blind for three years, but now she can see.
SOLWEZI
Evangelists David Rotärmel and Virginnia Logan
One lady could not walk properly for over 20 years and suffered with swelling in her legs. The swelling went away, and she was able to jump and run around with Evangelist Virginnia. Evangelist David Rotärmel shared: “We felt the Holy Spirit and a fresh outpouring of His presence. Those who were hungry and thirsty for Jesus were filled. We began praying for the sick, and the only explanation for what happened next was that King Jesus Himself stepped onto the field as miracles began to break out. We celebrate along with the people of Zambia for all the Lord has done – every life surrendered, every decision to follow Jesus, every healing, and every moment a man, woman, and child encountered the Father’s love. We are confident in this – God, who began a good work, is faithful to complete it.”
Tony could not hear and went to sign language school. He had hearing problems for 20 years, but during the prayer, he received healing and can hear clearly now.
KASAMA
Evangelists Joe Turnbull and Tyrelle Smith
Evangelist Daniel Kolenda shared: “After I preached, a witchdoctor came forward and surrendered her life to Jesus. Then she brought a bag of ‘juju’ (witchcraft charms and amulets) and some other blankets that were used for witchcraft rituals, and she threw them into our fire barrels! She stood before the massive crowd and publicly professed her faith in Christ and said she would serve Him ‘forever and ever.’”
In another powerful moment, the crowd (including a member of the royal family of a local tribe and the local bishops) repented of a large idol of a crocodile in the middle of town. Someone then burnt an effigy of that crocodile in the fire-drums as witchcraft paraphernalia was being torched.
Aaron is 10 years old. For almost his whole life (9 years), he could neither stand upright nor straighten his hand. But during the prayer, he was completely healed.
Kitwe
Evangelists Roselyne Aaron and Braidwood Rathbone
A whole gang surrenders to Jesus
On the night when Evangelist Kolenda came to Kitwe, he preached a very simple, clear Gospel message, and tens of thousands responded, including an entire gang that is well known in the region. They publicly testified that they had been terrorising people in the region for many years, but that night they all surrendered their lives to Jesus! They announced to the crowd that they will never go back to their old ways.
An elderly man named Sir Alex had pain all over his body for one year. This pain made it impossible for him to walk anywhere. He could not even go to his local church because of this condition. Jesus healed him, all the pain in his body vanished, and his strength was renewed like that of a young man. In front of everyone, he walked, jumped, and ran.
The work is never done until Jesus returns! You can be a part of this great harvest by praying for us and supporting this ministry financially. Contact info@cfan.org.za or click here. Thank you for standing with us.
