Dear Partners,
We pray this newsletter finds you blessed and encouraged. As the PDM team travels the globe, we are continually reminded of Jesus’ words in Matthew 28:19 – ‘Go therefore and make disciples of all nations. It is a joy and honor to share with you all of the amazing ways God is working around the world through PDM.
Recently, we ministered in the second-largest city in the Republic of the Congo, Pointe Noire. The Lord moved in extraordinary ways! Over three days, we ministered to 383 pastors, equipping them with faith to walk as miracle workers. In the evening crusades, more than 87,000 people gathered, and we witnessed 32,200 salvations! We also held two powerful children’s crusades, where over 5,000 little ones were ministered to, and 3,560 received Christ. Beyond the crowds in person, our services were broadcast live into every TV household in Pointe Noire. The network reported that over 500,000 people were reached, with more than 20,000 responding to altar calls from their homes. Altogether, the Lord brought in a harvest of 55,560 salvations! Thank you for your faithful prayers and financial support that make this Kingdom work possible.
During our trip to Pointe Noire, a man came to the platform to testify that he was in a car accident and his pelvis was crushed. He hadn’t been able to stand or walk for the past 2 years. After prayer, he walked for the first time without his cane and with no pain! All glory to God!
The PDM team is preparing for their 10th trip to Pakistan on October 6th. We are expecting the crowd to exceed 90,000 people. Believe with us for 60,000-70,000 decisions for Christ while we are there! We are working hard to get people to the crusade field. Like we have done in times past, we have to bus people into this location, where we sometimes have upwards of 2,000 security forces on the ground to keep everyone safe and protected. People get the chance to hear the gospel without any hindrances or hesitation. Every bus that comes to the crusade has a Pastor on it so that when someone comes to Christ, we can follow up with them immediately. We see around 80% of the people who come to Christ in the crusade in a church the following Sunday. Busing people there costs approximately $100 per bus.
I’d like to ask if you could pray about helping us transport people to the crusade so they can hear the gospel. If you can sew $100, we can put 100 people on a bus and get them to the crusade. Whatever the Lord puts on your heart, we want to thank you. We appreciate what you are doing. Together, we are making a difference in Pakistan.
Thank you for your constant prayers and support as the team prepares for this upcoming trip. We believe that many souls will be saved, and healings and miracles will take place, bringing glory and honor to God that He deserves.
For souls,
Eric Smith – Crusade Director
