Conserving the Harvest in South Sudan


As we reported previously, one of our Doulos Training School (DTS) graduates, brother Henry (pictured left), conducted an far-reaching evangelistic outreach across South Sudan, by the grace of God. Now he has transitioned to Phase II - Conserving the Harvest. The goal in this phase is to follow up on those who got saved during the evangelistic outreach initially, baptize them in water, pray for them to receive the baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire, get them into discipleship groups, teach them the basics of being a disciple, equip the saints for works of service, establish new churches, and appoint elders to shepherd those congregations.


January 27, 2026

The LTG groups are now over 30, then I have different prayer altars which have been started, and lastly I have three house churches planted though we have not constructed buildings, but they are fellowshipping. I also have other churches which will be planted in the course of Phase III. 

January 15, 2026

I want to thank God for enabling me to meet Sis Rejoice S. She told me that from her youth she was a believer and serving God in a Pentecostal church with all her heart, but reaching her forty years old, she just found herself out of the church. She has gone the past 20 years without going to church again. The day she heard me preaching during our harvest crusades (this past fall), she said that she heard a voice telling her to give her life to Jesus again. She disobeyed the voice, but after we left her region, she has never had peace again. She said all this while she had been looking for me until one person from the side where the church is in Juba visited that area, then she decided to do more inquiries about how she could meet me, and God used that person to make sure we meet.

I give God all the glory because our sister received Jesus again. I will keep her in prayers so that she doesn't leave the way of righteousness again.

Your servant,
Bro Henry.

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

There's a great move of God in South Sudan, as I am doing my best to finalize with phase two, one of the members who has been attending the discipleship class, had been working with the prostitutes for a very long time. And as her life got transformed through discipleship, she confessed to me this, and told me that they had a prophet who still exists. This prophet was anointing them with false anointing oil according to me inorder to get customers( men to sleep with them), and whenever they could get the money, then an offering was given to the fake prophet in order to get more customers. When she gave her life to Jesus during our missions, the woman who was acting as their boss in that business is looking for her seriously. She said, that friends told her if the information reaches their prophet, then I will have problem because I am the one who has confused her. But I thank God, because right now more two from the same group have already given their lives to Jesus.

Your servant,
Bro Henry.

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

I thank God for the great work He is doing in South Sudan. Phase two is going on well, and I also see serious growth among those attending my discipleship teachings. Many have now dedicated themselves fully to Jesus. I have been also invited to conduct burials, dedication of children, bless families, home deliverances, home prayers by those who are attending the discipleship teachings and their close relatives. I thank God others have evangelized to their family members, and led them to repentance and salvation. God has made me too much engaged with phase two, and I am praying to God so that within this month I finish, and move out to another phase.

We have a brother by the names Felix, who gave his life to Jesus, and for all this time he was committed attending the teaching. He decided to leave his gang and committed his entire life to Jesus, but I didn't know that he had been previously involved in one of the most dangerous gangs before he gave his life to Jesus. He was a leader of one of the groups of  the [gang name omitted for security] in South Sudan. This group is a dangerous group, which attacks people with pangas. They can attack you and take everything from you, and also cut you with pangas, and sometimes they leave you dead and sometimes badly injured. They have different groups of [gang name omitted for security], and sometimes when they have misunderstanding, they also attack themselves. I know of many people who are victims of these attacks. Felix was one of the leaders of one of the gangs, so when he add me preaching about repentance and end times, then he decided to give his life to Jesus, and made a decision to follow Him. From the time he gave his life to Jesus, he didn't want to leave me. I could see him keeping around. One day he went to pick his money from somewhere, this is the money they have been getting in a wrong way I suspected. He had saved it on his bank account, so when he went, the bank told him they don't have money, and only gave him $150 USD. When he was coming from the bank, one of his gang members approached him and asked him why he is not seen in the gang meetings, so he explained to him how he had given his life to Jesus, and he has nothing to do with the gang anymore. His friend immediately informed other gang members to come, and serious attack was done on him. But we thank God he was only cut on the finger with a panga, and afterward they disappeared with him in custody.
 For three days I was not seeing him in the class, and all his phones were off, then later we got information through the same gang, that they are the ones with him. I entered into prayers and fasting, and they kept calling me. I could preach to them on phone and remind them that they were created by God, and no one can fight God's will. I could also teach them about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and that they should prepare to meet Him.

I decided to go there. I went with other people, met them somewhere in the bush. I went with my ID for the church and the bible. They came, and I requested them that we should pray first. I saw the hand of God. It's a very long story, but he was released. The person, who was his deputy in the gang, requested that I should go back there, and pay their fee (protection money), so that they can remove Felix's name from their list. If I don't do that [they say], then they will continue attacking him.

However I thank God the LTG meetings are going on. Discipleship classes are going on. I have a sister by the name Angel, who was a total drug and alcoholic addict, but gave her life to Jesus during our missions. She was baptized by the Holy Spirit and fire after attending my teachings and praying for her by laying on of hands. She's now a serious intercessor. Every time I see her, she is praying for the nation and people, crying while asking God to intervene, so that people can know Jesus in South Sudan.

I also have a youth, by the name Scovia who also gave her life to Jesus. She attended the teachings and decided to follow Jesus. The devil entered  her relatives, and they started fighting her salvation to the extreme; they beat her severely, and sent her to an abandoned room to sleep there. She was only able to come after her body was all full of bruises from mosquito bites and other insects. She said it would be better to die, but she will never leave Jesus. 

On Thursday, I received a phone call from her mother crying tears, that the father and the uncle who have been paying her daughter Scovia's school fees have stopped the support unless she leaves salvation, but the daughter said that even if she is to lose education, she can't leave Jesus. She asked me what did I do to the daughter, because she was not like that before. I also preached to her, and requested her to come and meet me. I preached to her and led her to Jesus as well. I told her that God will use her or some other way so that her daughter may study, if that's His will, but to let her serve God. I taught her about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. I just give God all the glory for the amazing things He is doing in South Sudan.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

We ended our teenagers' conference successfully, and all the glory goes back to God almighty. Many children joined the conference, and on the last day of the conference, it was quite a big number. 

On the last day, I prepared Bible questions that were to be asked on that day to assess the teens on what they had learned during the five days, but I requested that they come with their parents. People started coming before the time we had planned. The church was not enough to accommodate the big numbers, therefore we hired two tents, each with a capacity to seat100 people, and they were both full of parents. I thank God for the day, because I saw patents also receiving salvation after sharing with them some of the testimonies of end times. We have 20 parents who gave their lives to Jesus and started attending the discipleship class immediately. I give all the glory to God.

Some of the photos of the last day of the conference are in the photo album linked above.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

December 19, 2025

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

I thank God, the teenagers' conference which is to take five days, has started today, and I thank God it was powerful. Over 60 teenagers turned up, I believe tomorrow the number will be more than that.

See photos in album.

December 18, 2025

Dear bro Henry,

A lot is still needed to complete my Phase II follow up ministry, but I have covered over 70% as of now. I have doubled my efforts to make sure I conclude by January, by the grace of God.

I am now concentrating on LTG and discipleship, covering and demonstrating of the cost of discipleship. 

One incident that I didn't share with you yet is a story of a gentleman, who received salvation during our crusades and he has been attending my teachings. He had the equipment for shisha at his home, it is used to smoke a drug which is stronger than cigarette [sometimes cannabis, hashish and opium], which makes some people even run mad. He and his wife used to smoke with it, but because of the teaching about how a disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ should live and end time gospel, he went home and disposed of everything without the notice of the wife. The issue was taken to the police, and a case was opened against me by the wife, claiming I am the one who caused that. I was given a letter of summons by the police. I went to the police with some of the members including bro Benson. When we reached there, before they even heard from me, I was put in prison. When they were putting me inside, I saw my brothers including bro Benson crying, shedding tears seriously as they were saying, "Bro it's well," but I knew that is the cost of discipleship that they have not experienced yet. The woman had charged me with a big bill, requiring that I should buy for her what the husband had disposed of. I was not much bothered, because I knew God has a reason why He allowed that to happen. When I was inside, I met someone who was injecting herself with a drug in the chest. We were separated by just a strong wire mesh, but I could look at the women's section from our side. I went closer and preached to her. She told me she was tired of life and wanted to die. She had cancer, and narrated to me her story, which was horrible; and ultimately she gave her life to Jesus. I prayed with her, and immediately afterward, they called for me out to meet a Criminal Investigation Division (CID) officer. The issue was sorted out, and I didn't even pay for the charges. That's how it ended. That's why I still want to take time covering discipleship teachings. I am also closely watching those who are under the training of elders.

December 15, 2025

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

It's unfortunate that one of our members in the church has lost a child of around 5 years old. From the time of the recent insecurity, the severe shooting which resulted into a fire outbreak, she ran to the bush fearing they may attack her from the house. The girl went with other children in the area, who were not all from the same family. This happened without the notice of the mother. When they came back after three days, the child became terribly sick. They were treating her, but the baby's condition was getting worse. I arrived on Saturday, and visited the family for prayers, but unfortunately on Sunday, the child passed away at midnight.

I conducted the burial today and tonight we shall have a prayer session in the same home, I believe God many will surrender their lives to Jesus.

At the time of burial, I taught about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. One woman by the name of Stella, came and confessed Jesus. She requested that I should go and teach in the area where the church she is fellowshipping in is located. She said they're not teaching anything to do with the coming of Jesus Christ, but are only teaching prosperity.

When we were coming back from the field, that same day we reached a certain center and evangelized there. One woman welcomed us and said there's no Pentecostal church in the area. She was desperately requesting that we establish one there. I told her to put it in prayers, as nothing is impossible with God; let God make her the door for the gospel to come to that town.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

December 13, 2025

Dear bro Len,

I thank God for journey mercies. I traveled with one other minister to check on the disciples of a new believer named Ivan, in order to know how phase II is progressing, and also to take the Bibles. I also carried with me LTG cards to guide them in formation of LTG groups in order to multiply disciples. 

However I found that the new converts had already scattered and others went back to their former lifestyle. For easier mobilization, I had to conduct an open-air meeting in the evening with teaching from 02:00pm to 4:30, and then we conclude with an open air in the evening for three days. I thank God by the time I was leaving, I managed to get and minister to those who had given their lives to Jesus before in our previous harvest crusade. [I believe most of the people who got saved during the original outreach were brought back into the fold during this second visit, but not all]. However, others received salvation in the course of my stay there. I am praying to God to give me grace to continue checking on them. 

I reached Juba today Saturday and I thank God who brought me back safely. Let's remember bro Felix and Deng in prayers, who really surrendered their lives to follow Jesus Christ for the few days I was there, and I believe God they will forever be for Jesus.

Attached are some photos (see link to album above).

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

December 8, 2025

Dear bro Len,
I hope this email finds you well.

I want to give God all the glory, six victims of the fire outbreak that happened a few days in South Sudan have totally surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ. They have experienced so much tragedy. One of them survived death because God didn't want her to die without accepting Jesus Christ. She went to rescue her property from the fire and in the process, again she was attacked by evil people who came and removed the stuff she had already removed from her shop, they also cut her leg with a panga (machete) and escaped with her phone, but the Lord saved her life.  I see the hand of God touching them one by one.

This Sunday, three more LTG groups were formed, and I gave them LTG guideline papers that I printed out to know more about LTG.

Beginning on December 19th, I will be teaching the intermediate children for 3 days, those who are not yet youths. I have seen much zeal and love for God in these children, the Lord has put a burden in my heart to share with them about the love of Jesus for the children and how they can walk in holiness while emphasizing the end time message of Jesus coming back for the church now.

Yours faithfully,

Bro Henry.

December 6, 2025

Dear bro Len,

I believe you are doing well by the grace of God.

I resumed my phase 11 by the grace of God. Today I felt a move of God sharing with the Sunday school children at mid hours. I spent good time teaching them the love of God towards them and how they can grow in the knowledge of God. Many of them were very happy and asking a number of interesting questions, I realized they equally need much of our time. 

I also did a follow up with the LTG groups that were already existence to see if there's steady progress and whether they're still keeping the LTG guidelines, I thank God I received positive feedback from most of them except a few that I encouraged through the word and also handed over to them the LTG cards for guidance.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

December 2, 2025
There was serious shooting in Juba yesterday. In the process, it has caused much insecurity resulting in setting one of the most busy business centers in South Sudan on fire. 

I met two people on the road in the morning crying bitterly about what happened, they had lost everything. I preached to them, prayed with them and moved with them to the site. When we reached there, I had nothing to say in my heart, except preaching to them to accept the most precious person in their lives, Jesus Christ. I was teaching and people were coming to where we were, and the number kept increasing. There's a lady called Ester, who surrendered her life to Jesus. Rose also surrendered her life ,and was ready to follow Jesus, because she said everything is vanity. People are like running mad with what happened, but I have been praying to God to give them peace and open their hearts to welcome Jesus into their lives.

Dear bro Len,
I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I thank God for what He is doing, our LTG numbers are increasing weekly, I have managed to notice much zeal for evangelism among those who are attending their LTG meetings weekly. I thank God for sister Nancy who had just given her life to Jesus, she came with her husband to the church and when I was teaching, she lifted up her hand, I thought she wanted to give her life to Jesus but she said no, she she wanted to confess. I gave her chance, she stood up and said her iPad that she came with, was bought for her by man who wants to confuse her marriage, she said she had been committing adultery with him but now she can't miss heaven because of him, she vowed to end the relationship immediately after repenting. I see people working out their salvation with fear and trembling, I was scared that it was cause to cause a fight because the man too was present, but instead the husband was happy, he said he knew about his wife's relationship with that man but she could not listen, he thanked God that his wife is now saved and changed.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

November 7, 2025
Dear bro Len, 

I have a lot of updates about Phase II. I thank God we have registered a lot of achievements. I have discipleship classes on Mondays and Tuesdays. Thursdays and Wednesdays, I have counseling, and we also have prayers on Tuesday.

Our numbers increased greatly in the church, from around 50 people to 70; and Sunday school has increased to 100. We now have 16 LTG groups [Life Transformation Groups for discipleship] in Juba, three in western equatorial (Yambio) and some in Bor. I don't currently know the exact number in Bor, because of [unreliable mobile] network, bro Ivan there has been unreachable for some days. [Bro Ivan is the newly saved fisherman in a remote town, who has already led 20 people to Christ.]

Most of the LTG groups are meeting on Saturdays. I think the day favors them. And at the church property, we have few who are meeting on Fridays.

We have registered a number of 19 people, who are going to be baptized, but we haven't yet fixed the exact day of baptism, because the names on the list are still increasing.

I have seen transformation in people's lives. For example, some ladies who were using artificial nails have started removing them. People are understanding that their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. Youths have trimmed their hair in a way that glorifies the Lord. Because of these teachings, people are correcting each other in love, in case of any mistake.

I also thank God for the elders I am training by the grace of God. They're  committed to learn. I taught them how LTG works, and they are enjoying it by the grace of God. 

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

October 27, 2025
Dear bro Len,

This phase two plan is very important because these people who received salvation don't yet know what salvation is. I have seen a lot happening in this phase two. 

There's a mama who received Jesus. Here's how it happened. A few days I was teaching about the way a disciple of Jesus must live. I also talked about forgiveness, I told them that however much man [has  hurt us], God has put a condition to love that person and also forgive him, so that you can also be forgiven. You must love even your enemies. As I was teaching, the woman was crying so loud I didn't know why. I even got concerned, but the Holy Spirit convicted me to continue with the teaching. The following day, the lady came and confessed to me that she doesn't know what she can give me. I told her, "My sister, salvation is free. Jesus paid everything. She said she doesn't have any money, but she has come to thank me. I told to thank God and give Him all the glory. 

She had hated the father of her children for years, such that they never talk, even if the man tries, there is no way. But after that teaching, she called him and talked to him. When she did, the man asked if she's really the one or not, is there something wrong or what. She said she is the one, the difference is that she gave her life to Jesus. The man called me and told me he wants to meet me, he also wants to give his life to Jesus, he is willing to come to me on Wednesday. 

So this phase two is very important, though mobilization to all those who received salvation is the only challenging thing. But the Lord is enabling us to do it, in order for them to be equipped and trained to be disciples, so that the next time you do an outreach for the second harvest, you go out in bigger numbers than you went before.

Within this short time, by the grace of God, we have formed now 13 LTG groups, which are still increasing. Yesterday I went and printed out more LTG cards for guidance, and am happy God is doing a great work through us.

Yours faithfully,
Bro Henry.

October 23, 2025
Dear bro Len,

I hope this email finds you well.

I was praying for a certain woman by the name Agnes, she was brought to me by the family members for prayers that she has been sick for over two months, they have tried everything but the condition is becoming worse. I spoke to the lady, preached to her, and she accepted Jesus Christ, including her three sisters.

The Spirit of God led me to pray a deliverance prayer. When I was praying, the evil spirit was screaming seriously through her, demanding to know why I am casting them out, since this is their temple, she belongs to them, as I rebuked the demons. They said in their voice, "We have marked her." What's interesting is that after the deliverance prayers, I asked the lady if she had any sort of mark on her body. She said, "Yes," and when we looked behind her back around the shoulders, there's a big figure eight like blood. I rebuked it, and declared that by today it will not be there. 

We give all the glory to God for her deliverance, repentance and accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Your servant,
Bro Henry.

October 22, 2025
Dear bro Len,

I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I thank God for the work He is doing through us, I have printed out the LTG cards for guidance and the Spirit of God is leading people to invite their LTG partners and things are moving well by the grace of God.

I ask for your prayers for one of our brothers by the name Ivan who is in Bor, a place which is along the White Nile River. He is one of those who received water baptism, and also I prayed for him and he was filled with the Holy Spirit. Currently he is moving with the gospel that side, and he told me their challenge is getting Bibles. He is visiting different fishing grounds with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I am planning to go there and strengthen them with one of the elders. I plan to stay there for a short period of just a week and get back to Juba, leaving the elder there for a while. I ask for your prayers if that's the will of God.

I last talked to him yesterday, he requested for prayers, as he was moving to a remote place by the same river. His name is bro Ivan, let's remember him in our prayers.

Your servant,
Bro Henry.

Do You Want to Know Him?

If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe. 

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

Conserving the Harvest in Uganda

As we reported previously, one of our Doulos Training School (DTS) graduates, brother Grace Okurut (pictured left), conducted an far-reaching evangelistic outreach across Uganda, by the grace of God. Now he has transitioned to Phase II - Conserving the Harvest. The goal in this phase is to follow up on those who got saved during the evangelistic outreach initially, baptize them in water, pray for them to receive the baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire, get them into discipleship groups, teach them the basics of being a disciple, equip the saints for works of service, establish new churches, and appoint elders to shepherd those congregations.

Praise the Lord!

Welcome brother, 

We have concluded Kampala phase II today, and starting phase III, returning to Mbale, and continuing to Soroti. 

Something to note: the elections sent some people away from Kampala to their respective villages, they are just beginning to return.

Brother Francis hasn't been seen or heard, of plus some others; still trying his phone if it can go through. However, 5 more people came to the Lord yesterday The fellowship is located along Kampala- Entebbe road, between Bunamwaya and Ngobe villages.

They are doing their LTGs, being discipled, healing and deliverance. An old woman by the name Bena got healed of eye disease that had lasted for three years. It used to be a red eye, pour out tears, with much pain. We thank God she is healed.

Also the Holy Spirit fell upon the believers, with testimonies, it was an excellent experience as they spoke in various tongues, and some got deliverance from evil spirits. We haven't yet done water baptism here ,the elections atmosphere isn't favorable yet for us to fully do what we are supposed.

Grace and peace, 

Br Grace. 

January 26, 2026

By the grace of God, eleven new fellowships have been established in Uganda during our Phase II ministry campaign.

January 23, 2026

Praise the Lord, dear brother Len,

I thank God for you, the entire harvest team elsewhere; the harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few!

We have seen a lot during our phase II follow up, characterized by no internet, which affected our ability to report on what's been happening.

However, by God's grace we have been able to cover most (90%) of our locations in phase II. We were to finish with Kampala, but the season of campaigns and elections kept us back! I'm in touch with 3 sisters and one brother who are helping with LTGs, and fellowship in Kampala. 

In every location we have followed up, there are testimonies of the Lord's accomplishments, healings, deliverances, more salvations, etc. The most feared witch doctor Bosco got born again with his wife Esther, who also got healed of leg pain, whole family came to the Lord in Acida location. A man named Moses, his wife Angela and their 10 children came to the Lord during our phase II visit. 

We conduct a fellowship at the home of sister Marculate, whose son Stephen gave his life to the Lord in our phase II visit, he is one among the fellowship caretakers plus his mother and sister Alice. What we see is more people coming to the Lord as we continue our phase II follow ups. This is a predominantly Catholic village; people say Catholicism is of no help to them, can not deliver them from their problems, including witchcraft, etc. Witchcraft is so prevalent, including resurrecting dead bodies from the graves, taking them to dig in gardens, washed in a community water spring, before continuing to their destinations; the people say the spring smells like blood, and this is the water they use for drinking, washing, etc. This has terrified the residents, and they are asking us to spend enough time helping them with the Word, prayer, etc. Winnie was delivered from suicidal spirits. Teddy attempted to kill her 1-year old son when she threw him in the bush, but the baby was rescued by eyewitnesses. Teddy and her husband Alex later when we visited them, gave their lives to the Lord. 

In Acida still, we were overwhelmed by a big number of children (about 40), who attended the fellowship; most of them have no parents. What is surprising the more is lack of the children's school in the village for the lovely children, including my best friend Prosy, 3 years of age, grand-daughter of the witchdoctor. We organized a meal for the children. Brother Len, as a matter of fact, for the first time, these people say, "We can go to heaven even without Catholicism". They are "tired of Catholic Witchcraft prayers"! They have hope that this is the time for their deliverance, plus many more testimonies. 

In Acida, Ogwolo Subcounty, sister Marculate and sister Alice are hosting the fellowship, while brother Stephen (Marculate's son) is leading. In Awawal, brother Vincent was appointed to lead the fellowship. In Ongole, Robert resisted us, and said his children will never leave their Catholic faith! I told him, "These children are God's, you are simply a caretaker". Upon this rebuke, he then said, "Well, they are of age, let them decide for themselves". So his daughter Oliver and one other visiting girl came and joined the fellowship. You will see Robert and his daughter Oliver, his son in a picture with me. For now sister Martha the wife of Robert is helping with the fellowship. Also locations of Alitimon, we have brother Peter and brother Vincent. In Nakatunya in Soroti, we have brother Bonface and brother Jerald. In Otucopi, we have brother Charles. In Pingire of Serere, we have Esther hosting the fellowship. In Awoja near the bridge, we have brother Moses leading. In Mbale we have brother Davis leading, and sister Winnie and sister Rita hosting the fellowship, In the location of Celtel, Acinga village, in Pallisa, we have brother Yokolamu, and Peter. All these locations have started LTGs, fellowships, and the elders have been identified. We have conducted baptisms of water, the Holy Spirit and fire; plus giving out the Bibles. It's only Acida that has no Bibles.

Sisters Marculate of Acida, Esther of Pingire, and Caroline of Awoja each host the fellowships in those locations.

Blessings, your fellow servant, 

br Grace.

January 12, 2026

A sister named Rose, in the Awoja Fellowship, got healed from pain that affected her back, legs, waist, for a long time. Praise the Lord!

January 9, 2026

Greetings dear brother Len in Jesus' Name!

I thank God for the gift of life,and for healing me; I recovered fully after you prayed for me!

In our phase II this week, we have moved in three different locations; meanwhile I'm in touch with sister Betty, sister Miracle, and brother Francis about our Kampala discipleship. I hope to reach them sooner or later.

1. In Pingire Serere, a fellowship is fully functional at brother David Ouma's home. The LTGs are operational and baptisms have been conducted. It's wonderful to know brother David received and welcomed the fellowship with his wife, his children; Esther, Caro, Alex, Akello, and other community members. Only that brother David has been sick for long, blindness due to pressure. He needs our prayers.

2. Alitmon in Awawal of Kalaki the fellowship is growing with more people coming to the Lord; LTGs are being observed. One of the nearby village leaders of Aloet, named Sam Ewinyu, came and knelt down in our fellowship and gave his life to the Lord. He had previously been a staunch Catholic. He asked us to extend the fellowship to his home.

3. While in Awoja, one bridge before you reach Soroti, in our phase II, three more people gave their lives to the Lord; Rose, Patrick, and his wife Mary. Rose had been having stomach pains for over 4 months, but was healed yesterday during deliverance prayers. An old woman, Dina, also got healed of waist pain. This fellowship is hosted at the home of Rose. Her daughter Caro had no job for over 10 years, but after she received prayer, she has testified in our phase II visit that God has done a miracle of a job offer to her.

You can view phase II pics that I'm sending now. I couldn't take pics in Serere as there was no where to charge the phones, but I will do that next time.

Brother, pray with us for more grace to do this fully before this month's end.

Blessings dear brother, 

Br Grace.

Praise the Lord brother Len, 

The Lord is so good, He has enabled us to baptize another 6 new believers from Celtel and Keria locations in Pallisa.

We had good time of fellowship together, Holy Spirit and fire baptism. We hope to move to the remaining locations after my recovery from sickness.

Blessings, 

Br Grace.

Praise the Lord brother, 

About five young people came to the Lord as their Savior today. We gave out of Bibles to our newly born again, baptized people in Pallisa; you can view me in the pic in the photo album. There are some more believers, who were not present, but we hope to meet them soon, and also hold another baptism service on Monday. 

Blessings.

In the Okunguro location in Pallisa, on the 25th of December, these people were given 4 Bibles (see photo album); one more youth came to the Lord. 

December 24, 2025

Dear brother Len, 

We had water baptism for Nakatunya fellowship, this was in Akelo Annex swimming pool. We also had 3 Bibles given out to the fellowship (see photos).

December 22, 2025

Praise the Lord brother Len, 

We welcomed brother Charles at Otucopi (pictured carrying his baby, beside his wife in blue). He was very grateful for the Bible, his first Bible ever in his life! I also had 3 little New Testament Bibles that had been in our house, which were given out to the children there in addition to the complete Bibles being given out.

Brother Charles has an open heart. He took us to the plot he owns and welcomed the fellowship in his house. They are eager to be baptized once they return from the village where they went for Christmas celebration. 

December 18, 2025

Hi dear brother Len, 

The Otucopi Fellowship has been established, hosted by our elderly brother Richard (very welcoming; initially a Catholic). Brother Simon is currently helping with the eldership of the fellowship with a dear brother Charles who is a lead brother of this fellowship. His wife Jane and sister Mary are upcoming deaconesses (very wonderful sisters in the Lord). This is a new Church plant. The fellowship is new and so dear to me. I'm setting these elders in as part of my Phase II follow up.

Praise the Lord! This Otucopi Fellowship joyfully received the 3 Bibles. 

The children too are very interesting as they participated in the fellowship! Upon seeing us, the children moved around mobilizing the members to gather at brother Richard's home, so we have every reason to praise the Lord. 

Kindly pray for these new brethren in the Lord to embrace the way of the Lord, 

Blessings, 

Br Grace. 

December 17, 2025
Dear brother Len, 

The children's fellowship in Anyara is growing stronger, LTGs formed and multiplying, and more children are getting saved. We bless the Name of the Lord. 

They received 7 Bibles, including a lady named Martha whose father is a staunch Catholic teacher, as she is. We thank God.

December 13, 2025
Sister Christine was healed from a heart disease, also immediately baptized by the Holy Spirit and fire today. We thank God. Brother Peter, her husband, also got Holy Spirit baptized and spoke in tongues in their home. We give God the glory. 

There is a fellowship in their house in Kalaki, which is a new church plant. Two Bibles were given out to them (see photos in album). 

Praise the Lord! When I was in Kampala with Peter years ago; the Lord took me with him to his home, where I preached to his wife Christine, and she came to the Lord. Their marriage had been messed up, but they reconciled that very day! God then gave them a daughter whom they called Grace. So he called me to his home recently where he desired to have a church planted. 

In the pictures, I (Grace) am in the top right corner with another brother named Joshua, who is a new believer.

December 3, 2025
Hi dear brother Len, 

While in Mbale for follow up, we had an urgent call from Pallisa to go and carry out water baptism for the Christians I had led to the Lord more than a year ago! We didn't hesitate but came here at once. 

Yesterday and today, as we shared and taught people about water baptism and deliverance, more crowds from the village were attracted, and more than 100 received the Lord, were water baptized, delivered, and Holy Spirit baptized. Catholics, too, came to the Lord; and the Chairman of the River came wanting to know what was happening. After I explained, he commended us and thanked God!

Praise the Lord! Children happily received the Lord! We are praying for the Lord to provide a big need for Bibles for them. (Photos in album at link above).

Blessings, 

Bro Grace. 

November 28, 2025
Dear brother Len, praise God 

We thank God for the commissioning of the second water well at Ongole Kalaki. The third well has also been successfully installed and started working at Angeca, Otuboi of Kalaki (see photos). 

In all these places where the wells have been built, the communities -- mostly women and children  -- are very happy and grateful for what God has done and how He has used His vessels; During summer people walk for miles in search of water.

people are rejoicing, water is with them; it's a great testimony for the first time! We pray for more wells in Teso region. 

God bless you, 

Br Grace. 

November 27, 2025
Dear brother Len, 

It is wonderful seeing the Lord's hand of salvation! I didn't capture the pics of the saved souls, but the one of baptism (see photo album). I'm traveling for commissioning of the wells then make a return to Mbale next week.

Blessings, 
Bro Grace

November 17, 2025
Hi dear brother Len,

A Moslem family accepted the Lord (see photo album), and got delivered from witchcraft. The mother, Chebet, seated with the children, experienced the power of the Holy Spirit touching her, though she wasn't very fluent in tongues. Her husband needs prayers to accept the Lord. They have started LTGs in their homes.

Also, this lady Judith was led to the Lord, and deliverance prayers from evil spirits were conducted. She is now free and filled with the Holy Spirit! (see photo album).

November 10, 2025

Hi dear brother Len, 

I hope you are fine in the Lord!

We thank God for the gift of life, we are continuing only by His grace!

We need more of His grace as we shall be heading out for follow-up, Phase II in the fifth location this week.

This is borehole two in Ongole, Kalaki, yet to be plastered. I will get in touch with you as far as the commissioning date is concerned.

We have also seen salvations and LTGs being started, especially among the children in this village. The girl Pete was my first contact, she introduced us to her mother, and father, then we see all what God is continuing to do in their Catholic dominated village. 

Be blessed brother,

Br Grace. 

November 7, 2025
Praise the Lord, brother Len, 

We are in phase II follow-up, where some people are undergoing deliverance. A Moslem boy by the name Anis, who refused to take a pic, just gave his life to the Lord. 

There is a family that has gone through witchcraft for decades being delivered; the children never get married, most don't have jobs, only two daughters are working; one is a judge, but was near death a few days ago, and after prayer, she has been discharged from hospital. The woman's elder daughter is working and wealthy, but has never called the mother for years and has never provided for her mother. During a deliverance prayer, she called the mother and promised to come home with food, etc. for the mother. In other words, while the mother was in deliverance prayers with us, the daughter was over calling her, more than four times before the mother responded! Immediately the mother testified that this has now happened for the first time!

In that same home of about eight people, four more youths gave their lives to the Lord. 

We realize there is a lot of witchcraft here that is responsible for people's suffering; a lady Sarah is being bewitched by her ex-husband, but after prayer and the Word, she is completely free.

We had one boy, Moses, who gave his life to the Lord. He requested us to start a Church at his place; I shared with him the process of starting a Church. 

Praying for their LTGs. Today we are returning to Soroti.

Blessings brother, 

Br Grace. 

October 30, 2025
Dear brother Len, 

Today was the commissioning of the borehole at Awaliwal in Anyara of Kalaki district. In attendance were 2 government representatives, 2 engineers, the children, and the community representatives. 

We thank God.

As I came here for the borehole issue, we went around the homes here in Awaliwal, and the children who had fellowship with us last time were mobilized to come for borehole commissioning. Some of the parents came along with their children, shared with them about Starting LTGs, etc. This is a Catholic-dominated community, but we thank God for the grace He had for us! 

There are lots of evils taking place in this village, but God is at work turning things around! (more photos in album above).

Blessings to you. 

Br Grace. 

October 25, 2025
Praise the Lord brother Len, 

We thank God for today; it's been wonderful, more than 40 people came around as we made appointment with them yesterday; We were interrupted by rain so some ran away before taking the pic with us. I shared with them about discipleship, and they now have LTGs (Life Transformation Groups). We moved in all their homes, and have their contacts. 

Blessings brother, 

Br Grace. 

October 24, 2025
Greetings dear brother Len in the Lovely Name of Jesus Christ!

Praise the Lord brother Len 🙏, 

By God's grace more people are responding to the gospel, coming to the Lord! Today we had more 5 come to the Lord including Charles and his wife Jane. They are very happy. In fact, they never wanted us to leave! We are beginning discipleship with them immediately and praying for baptism  etc. So we have just planted a new Church in Otucopi.

Today has been another day of follow up, though challenging. We managed to gather in the home of a man named Otim (wearing a cap and seen at the left in the photo) and his wife pictured at the extreme right. Previously on the day of our outreach, he was initially unwilling to get born again; but later did so. He opened up today for us to gather in his home for fellowship. He is a staunch Catholic, but the Lord has opened up his heart, and he received us with the newly born again people you see in the photo. Others were unable to attend, but we met them in their respective homes; some needed deliverance, counseling, etc.

We are preparing them for LTG, later baptism in water, as we still battle with religious spirits, but thanking God for the major breakthrough achieved. Pray with us that tomorrow will come with better results.

One of our team members had an emergency call to Lira, while one traveled to Aabiya in Amuria district, our next mission destination. He traveled to secure a place for us to stay ahead of our planned journey. 

Thank you brother for the guidance.

Blessings to you. 

Br Grace

October 23, 2025
Praise the Lord brother!

We came here for follow-up, conserving the harvest. Work started yesterday, following up from person to person, home to home. We have found out that the spirits of religion, prostitution and witchcraft need to be dealt with!

Some of the people we prayed for still hide under their religious umbrella, a few are ok with the new life [that they have received, but] we still meet new people in our follow-up, and hence some accept the Lord. All in all it's a wonderful, but challenging experience!

There is only one born again Church in the area that is struggling without people! We met the Pastor lady who hosted us for a while. I also talked with her about our DTS, she is positive and will send you her contact. 

Today is our second day in follow-up. We will see how it goes and get in touch with you tomorrow. 

Blessings. 

Bro Grace

October 14, 2025
Conserving the harvest is really a priority now; water baptism, baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire, and discipleship. This should be done in places such as Otucopi, Odokomit, Nakatunya, in Soroti; then Mbale, Kampala in 2 locations, Otuboi in Kalaki, Ongole,and Awaliwal, Ojukot in Kalaki.

We need to appoint elders and pastors in these areas for the churches urgently. I consider moving to these locations with a smaller team of 6. Yes, brother, there will be many congregations.  

Brother Len, what God has put in your heart about the new congregations is exactly what we had been talking about as a mission's team, we thank God for the confirmation. What you have shared with me is very very right, urgent and timely!

We thank God  dear brother for  His grace, guidance, 

God bless you, 

Bro Grace.

Do You Want to Know Him?

If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe. 

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

Nasty Flu Miraculously Cured

On Saturday, October 4, 2025, I received the following email from brother Grace in Uganda (pictured left), one of our ministry partners there, saying that he was sick and unable to do his planned evangelistic outreach that day, which he'd been carrying out with his team all across Uganda since late August:

"Greetings brother, I'm unable to send the report today; most of us in our team have fallen sick, therefore there was no harvest today. We shall resume on Monday. I'm shivering and feverish, with no appetite. But we serve a big God who saves us from the enemy's attacks!

God bless you"

After reading his email, I first prayed for him, then prayed for the healing power of God to come upon me, so that I could pray for him over the phone. I then called brother Grace and prayed for him. As I did so, I could feel the presence of the Lord upon me. The power of God fell on him, too. Tears were streaming down his face, and it was too much for him to contain, as he received a mighty touch from the Lord; and all the pain he had throughout his body, including the headache, completely left him. 

Afterward, while we were still on the phone, he testified as to what happened and said, "I'm healed." He was praising God profusely. All glory be to God alone forever. Amen.  

I later received the following message from brother Grace on Monday, October 6th. He wrote:

"Today, I thank God for the gift of life and His hand of healing upon my life! When you prayed with me; too much power from the Lord came upon me, I spoke in tongues with yelling, tears, and much joy. I'm completely healed. Every symptom is completely healed, my brother. God is great! I'm able to travel and preach the gospel."

Closing Words
Only the Lord can do miracles such as this, and He gets all the glory for what He did in brother Grace's life. Paraphrasing the apostle Peter, I, too, say as he did that the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has glorified his servant Jesus. By faith in the name of Jesus, brother Grace was miraculously made well. It is Jesus' name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him. (see Act 3:13-16). Hallelujah!

Jesus said, "And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." (Mar 16:17-18). And in this case, the Lord did it even without the laying on of hands, but by faith over the phone. Glory to God!

Nigeria End Time Evangelistic Outreach

One of our Doulos Training School (DTS) graduates, brother John Abugieye (pictured left), is traveling across Nigeria, preaching the gospel with an end time message. His team consists of four other people besides himself.

They are going into villages, towns, and homes proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ. Here are some testimonies from the campaign with accompanying photos.


October 18, 2025
To the glory of God, this is our outreach today — to the suffering and the weary — helping and rebuilding their hope in Christ, loving them equally, just as Christ loves them.

October 17, 2025
Today we traveled back to Obanliku Local Government, revisiting the souls we have preached to, carefully teaching them the way of God, and how to continue faithfully until the end.

The only name that brings natural smiles to anyone is Jesus Christ. When we met her, she was sad with many stories that touch the heart to share. After sharing a sincere and genuine message of Christ with her, I must tell you that hope returned to her. Glory be to God Almighty. 

October 8, 2025
Dear brother Len 

Today's outreach to Karu was successful. The community is giving me great joy because of the attention and openness they are showing in receiving the message of our Lord Jesus Christ. From what I am seeing, I am truly convinced that Brother Stephen heard from God concerning this community.

Although rain fell on us today, I didn’t feel it at all—because I was well covered with my new rain suit, and my heart was filled with joy and passion for what God is doing here.

Right now, we are engaging in house-to-house evangelism. On the last weekend of this month, we will be holding a three-day program in the community until God's light begins to shine brighter and brighter there.

Dear brother Len, 

Today we visited Kakwe community and held a program in the compound of Brother Joseph, who was once an inmate but is now a believer. I went together with Brother Emmanuel and Sister Esther. Brother Joseph warmly welcomed us and assisted greatly, as he knew me from the prison some years back.

Although the turnout was small—about 20 people, including children—the few who came wholeheartedly received the messages we preached and dedicated their lives to Christ. One sister by name Blessing openly confessed that she had not been going to church but has now opened herself completely and asked that I visit her often for discipleship.

I plan to schedule a time to begin discipleship training with her before handing her over to Sister Esther to continue nurturing her in the Word, if Christ tarries. 

October 4, 2025
Today, Brother Stephen and I made a firm decision to go to Karu in Ukpe, even though it was raining. We rode through the rain [on the motorcycle], and whenever it became too heavy, we took shelter; as soon as it subsided a little, we continued until we reached Kikong. Since Karu was still ahead, and our bodies were already shaking from the cold, we decided to begin our evangelism there.

The responses and acceptance of Christ gave me great joy. We spent time evangelizing, preaching, and praying for people. This was the very reason we chose to go out in the rain without making excuses.

To the glory of God, we went together, and truly, from what we witnessed, God indeed sent [us].

October 1, 2025
Dear Brother Len,

We have just concluded today’s outreach, and to the glory of God, it was indeed a great success. Approximately 80 people were in attendance, and many of them repented and surrendered their lives to Christ. Brother Emmanuel, Brother Tony, and I actively ministered during the program.

I shared with them the urgent messages God is sending to the world concerning the rapture, encouraging everyone to turn away from worldly lifestyles. By God’s grace, most of them responded with genuine repentance and prayed earnestly.

After the program, one man approached me privately and pleaded with us to visit his family and help reconcile them, as his household is divided and without peace. According to him, even his own mother refuses to accept anything from his hands. As the Lord tarries, we intend to visit his family this week and assist in restoring peace by the grace of God.

In Christ’s service,
Brother John 

September 30, 2025
Today, we completed our outreach program in Bebuabon community. Just after setting up our equipment, it started raining, and we had to move into a hut. Despite that, about 30 people attended the program, and most of them made a decision for Christ. We will continue there tomorrow, as we scheduled the outreach for two days. I pray God will give us good weather tomorrow.

September 20, 2025
Dear brother Len,
Today's prison visitation went well. The prison director prayed for me so wholeheartedly today that my heart was overwhelmed. 

The way I preached to the inmates in two different halls today was truly inspired by God. I give all the glory to Him alone. You should see how these prisoners genuinely love me and are responding to Christ.
In all things, I give only God the glory.

Shalom.

September 18, 2025
Today I'm a bit too tired, so I only visited the hospital, preached to some patients and prayed for them (see photos).

September 17, 2025
Hello, brother Len,
 
Today, Wednesday, we carried out an outreach in the Atiekpe community in Obudu Urban. The people turned up, bringing their own chairs to the program. As we preached to them, they gladly and joyfully accepted the message. They even said that giving them only one day was not good, and requested that we try to visit them again and stay with them for at least three days or even one week.

The only challenge we are facing now is the constant rain that falls every evening. We finished preaching the message, and just as we were about to enter into prayers, the rain started. The people truly welcomed us and received the message. For those who were living in unforgiveness, we tried to reconcile them.

Another challenge is that our phone cameras are not good enough to capture clear pictures of the program.

September 16, 2025
Hello, brother Len,

The meeting today in the Betukwel community was in fact marvelous. I preached to many souls, and many of them repented and surrendered their lives to Christ. All for the glory of God alone. The new sound system gives us what we want with better high sound quality. 

September 15, 2025
Hello, Brother Len, 

By the mercy of God, he is helping us over here as we are trying our best for the evangelical campaign. The Holy Fire baptism is still active in my life. Yesterday I prayed for two sisters to receive the Holy Fire baptism, and both of them received the baptism with evidence. Sister Faith testifies that she sees a very beautiful light with flames in orange color, and a voice spoke to her: "The joy ahead of you is great." 

Sister Faith has been very faithful in God's service, and she is the one that has been mentoring the widows. She went for a prayer meeting when I prayed for others, but her own baptism was very special and remarkable. Myself too. Whenever I'm praying for anybody now, I will be receiving the same signs I felt when you prayed for me. Rose shared with me that she went and prayed to God, seeking him to please reveal something about the rapture, and this is the voice she heard: "Many people are walking in my mercy and grace, but I know those that are mine." 

September 13, 2025
Dear Brother Len,

The prison meeting was powerful. I told all the prisoners to accept Christ and prepare themselves for the rapture. The way they made decisions for Christ was awesome. Many of them shared their problems with me, and I prayed for them. I personally led them in the sinner’s prayer, after which I asked God for mercy on all who came out to surrender their lives to Christ. 

I just returned from the village, where six elderly people (three men and three women) came out and surrendered their lives to God. We booked an appointment with a Mount Zion pastor who was present at the program, and he gladly welcomed us to preach in his church tomorrow at 5 p.m.

Brother John 

September 12, 2025
Hello, brother Len,
 
Our outreach today at Ukwel Obudu village came with some challenges. Our small generator refused to come on, and our public address system also failed to respond. We really struggled, but we sought a mechanic to repair the generator. Pastor Emmanuel also called one of his pastor friends, who agreed to lend us his public address system. We rode back from the village to the location where the pastor directed us to meet him.

When we finally started the program, the turnout was quite poor—only about 23 people attended. However, after listening to the preaching, they requested that we return tomorrow. In all, we give God the glory.

September 11, 2025
Today was just a street walk. I walked around some strategic areas while sharing tracts at the same time. Concerning the rapture we are talking about, I discovered in my walk that people have no interest in God, and the rapture does not move them at all. Some people even told me that what they want is money, not tracts.

Another thing I observed is that those in prison and in the villages are even more interested and open to the gospel than those in town. One thing that saddens my heart is that the youths are not concerned and do not care about Jesus at all; instead, they are after the mundane things of this life.

May God help our generation.

September 10, 2025
Brother John traveled to a Bebuabie community called Kuyia in Cross River state today with his ministry partner, despite the enemy's efforts to stop it from happening. He preached to a large crowd of 90 people, some of whom were standing outside the hut. The local pastor actually attended the meeting, and when he heard the preaching and saw how people were repenting of their sins, he himself became sober. Though the community is not a large one, about 95 percent of the people in the community attended. Brother John estimated that roughly over 80 people made decisions for Christ during this outreach, which was almost all of those who attended, including the two pastor that were present. Praise the Lord!

September 9, 2025
Today 87 inmates, along with some prison officers, were fed by brother John, who has an ongoing ministry to them and has previously preached to them. They were very happy and full of joy. They truly expressed their gladness and wholeheartedly joined in praying for John. The prison director said it is not only about the gifts given but also about the humility of heart shown in loving, caring for, and remembering the forgotten. Praise the Lord! See photos in album.

September 5, 2025
I, Len Lacroix, the author of this blog, was led by the Lord to call brother John Abugieye in Nigeria. I prayed for him to receive the baptism with fire and he received mightily. As I prayed for him, I could feel the presence of the Lord very strongly upon me. 

Afterward, brother John said that as I prayed for him, he felt the presence of the Lord, as well as a powerful tingling throughout his body like electricity, but it did not hurt. It caused him to experience five involuntary jolts, as if he was being shocked, and he felt a lightness and joy afterward -- such happiness. Glory to God!! 

Immediately following this experience, he headed off to an all-night prayer meeting that he was leading. During our 30-minute phone call, I had instructed him how to impart the holy fire to others, and asked him to start doing so that night at the prayer meeting. So at the prayer meeting, he testified to the people about how the Lord had baptized him with holy fire, and then after explaining to them the baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire from Scripture, he imparted to those who wanted to receive.

Later upon returning, he sent me the following testimony of what happened to each of the people to whom he imparted holy fire:

"Hello Brother Len,

These are the testimonies with evidence from our first Friday prayer. As you prayed for me and asked me to also pray with my people, here is what they shared about their experience of the baptism of holy fire:

1. Rose:
According to Rose, the moment I started praying for her, she saw a white bird. Then a shining rainbow circle appeared around her head and also around her legs. The white bird came and perched within the rainbow circle on her head, and the rainbow transformed into a single line in her palm. She noticed that the red color was thicker than the others.

She then heard a voice giving her a message for a certain pair of twins: 'Go and tell them that anyone who is ashamed of Me, I will also be ashamed of that person.' The voice also instructed her to speak to their mother.

When I asked if she felt any physical sensation, she testified that she experienced something like an electric shock twice on her head.

2. Sylvia:
Sylvia testified that as soon as I began praying for her, she saw a ball of fire descending from heaven and falling into her hands. Immediately, her hands began to burn with intense heat, like real fire. She also saw something like a star drop onto her hands.

3. Brother Damian:
This brother testified that the moment I started praying for him, he felt something like an electric shock on his shoulders. Immediately, fire sparked in his hands and then moved straight into his right leg (the leg that often pains him). He began to feel strong and intense heat in that leg — which I personally witnessed.

He further explained that he felt as though air was lifting him up, and suddenly his ears and eyes opened very clearly. He saw a pure crystal-like water shining like light, coming down from heaven and pouring over him. He felt the coolness of the water, which made him feel light and completely free.

4. Mama Elizabeth:
This elderly woman testified that she saw light descending from heaven and falling between her legs. She became afraid and stepped back. I witnessed her shifting back at that very moment." (End of brother John's testimony).

Praise the Lord for these wonderful testimonies of God's love for His people, and His mighty power released upon them in this great, end-time outpouring of His Spirit. Brother John's ministry is forever transformed now that he has received the baptism with holy fire. To God be all the glory.

September 3, 2025
Rain really disturbed [our efforts], but to the glory of God we still carried out the outreach to Bebuabong village as planned.

September 2, 2025
Yesterday, we had the privilege of preaching in two communities, and we gave glory to God. Today, we're scheduled to minister in Bebuabong. 

Our schedule for the rest of the week includes a visit to the Ohong community on Thursday and a preaching session at the Obudu market square on Friday and Saturday.

Do You Want to Know Him?

If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe. 

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

Uganda End Time Evangelistic Outreach

One of our Doulos Training School (DTS) graduates, brother Grace Okurut (pictured left), is traveling across Uganda with a team of around thirty-four gospel ministers (at it's peak size), preaching the gospel with an end time message. The reception has been excellent. 

They are going into villages, towns, homes, markets, streets, street corners, and churches, and proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ. Many scores of people are coming to Christ as a result. Here are some testimonies from the campaign with accompanying photos.

Conserving the harvest is really a priority now; water baptism, baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire, and discipleship. This should be done in places such as Otucopi, Odokomit, Nakatunya, in Soroti; then Mbale, Kampala in 2 locations, Otuboi in Kalaki, Ongole,and Awaliwal, Ojukot in Kalaki.

We need to appoint elders and pastors in these areas for the churches urgently. I consider moving to these locations with a smaller team of 6. Yes, brother, there will be many congregations.  

Brother Len, what God has put in your heart about the new congregations is exactly what we had been talking about as a mission's team, we thank God for the confirmation. What you have shared with me is very very right, urgent and timely!

We thank God  dear brother for  His grace, guidance, 

God bless you, 

Bro Grace.

Hi dear brother Len, 

It has been a 3-day, door-to-door evangelism here in Kalaki, 55 km away from Soroti. My friends, the children, who introduced me to their parents, gathered with their parents after door-to-door evangelism, and embraced the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior! In attendance were more than 50 people, in a village that has many street children doing a lot of burglary, breaking into people's homes, theft, murders, etc. It's now a transformation with a lot of thanks to the Lord God!

Today we had to organize for a fellowship meal together with the children and some parents, thanking God for what He is doing! This has never happened in most of these villages, and has turned out to be a big children's fellowship; pray with us, as we plan to have these kind of arrangements once in a while as the Lord enables. 

Thank you.

Blessings, brother. 

Bro Grace

Yesterday we had all-day interacting and sharing the gospel here in Kalaki. Several people came to the Lord. However, there was much rain, and at night, we had some man brought to us who ran mad. It was a deliverance night till 6:00 AM in the morning of today when violent Fred was delivered! I think this is my first time to be involved in this kind of heavy demonization deliverance; the man was violent, kicking, etc.!! But we thank God.

Today we had children's ministry where we were preparing children in this village to meet the Lord soonest. We have mostly violent street children in this village; tomorrow is when we shall be sharing again from the Bible and having a meal together.  

Blessings. 

Grace.

On Saturday, October 4th, brother Grace was sick with fever, chills, body aches, and headache, so I (brother Len) called him and prayed for him. As I did so, I could feel the presence of the Lord upon me. The power of God fell on him, tears were streaming down his face, and it was too much for him to contain, as he received a mighty touch from the Lord and all the pain he had throughout his body, including the headache, completely left him. He testified as to what happened and said, "I'm healed." He was praising God profusely. Hallelujah!

Today the 6th, brother Grace testified, "Dear brother Len, today, I thank God for the gift of life and His hand of healing upon my life! When you prayed with me, too much power from the Lord came upon me, I spoke in tongues with yelling, tears, and much joy. I'm completely healed. Every symptom is completely healed, my brother. God is great! At least I'm able to travel and preach the gospel."

He continued with an update on today's outreach saying, "We enter churches, streets, markets, villages, etc. You can see people repenting with tears as we share the gospel, with the return of the Lord; this happened in one of the local churches."

"You may be aware that children are wonderful friends and partners in the gospel. They open doors for their families to be evangelized. They are my best friends. Jesus said, 'The Kingdom of heaven belongs to these little ones!' This has happened in Ongole village of Kalaki district. I testify today that we have met these children fetching dirty water for domestic use (see photo album), We interacted with them and they have introduced us to their parents. I will have a sharing with their parents tomorrow. They asked us to pray for clean water for their community. God bless you."

Dear brother Len, 

Today saw numbers of people giving their lives to the Lord in a trading center called Cornerstone;

We thank God

October 2, 2025
Praise the Lord brother Len, 

We thank God for today's harvest that brought about 10 people to the Lord! This was along Soroti Lira road.

However, we were interrupted by rain and had to stop before  time.

The people received us with joy,and asked us to go back. They gave us their telephone contacts for follow up.

You may have a look at some of the pics (in album at link above)

Praise the Lord! We are really aware of the signs of the Lord's coming, and the season; and it's not sin at all for people to prepare for the Lord's return! This is the time my life has so changed, we have preached and won souls more than any time in our life!  

We are in the season of the Lord's return and He wants His bride to be aware and ready like the five wise virgins. In fact everywhere the people who love the Lord are eagerly awaiting; it's like people are tired of the world and NEVER want to be caught up in the Great tribulation. We have experienced here, even the non believers are sensing this season!!

We love you!!

Br Grace.

Greetings dear brother Len, 

It was another wonderful day experiencing God at work in the lives of His people!

I had never felt led to preach the gospel in this Nakatunya environment, until today when I felt a very strong urge within my spirit to do so! When we approached the venue I started feeling a deep love for the people and every negative view of the community immediately vanished!

We shouted, "Hallelujah, Amen!" with almost all the people in the business center repeating the words!

Our mobile speaker worked and sounded great to that effect more than we have ever experienced before!

During open air meeting after door to door, I normally minister last after my team members have done so. 

Today was amazing! At the time of concluding the preaching, 3/4 of the people lifted up their hands confessing Jesus Christ as their Lord. We give glory to Him!

Hi dear brother Len, 

Today we had an evangelistic campaign in Malinga Cell in Soroti, it was just 50 meters away from a Catholic stronghold Church. It was another exciting day with salvations. In this place we have one of our mission's team mates who holds a house fellowship. To my surprise a greater number that turned up were Catholics with their rosaries around their necks! I had a sharing in the morning, and we took two, who came to the Lord, for baptism a hotel 5 km away with a swimming pool. 

After returning from baptism at 1:00 PM, we found the people gathered as you can see in the pic, many gave their lives to the Lord after the Word of repentance was preached, preparing the Church for the Lord's return. 

After that, one brother called Samuel invited us to travel to his place, miles away, called Amuda. We pray the Lord helps us to travel to that village.

Glory to the Lord!

Br Grace.

Hi dear brother Len, 

We thank God for His grace upon us, and His unfailing love; He enabled my wife Dina, with the team to travel to her ancestral village to warn the communities of the imminent rapture; a message of repentance was preached in the Alitimon trading center. As a result she has received some invitations from some families, and established Bible study in two locations.

In that place there is a lot of evil; murder, incest, theft, witchcraft, drunkenness, and fights; dominated by a Catholic religion.

I once preached in that community decades ago and a number came to the Lord including Grace, who has become a prominent sister and leader among the faithful. She is now a widow after her husband who also fiercely resisted me in my first mission to the village died a few years ago. These days Christians converge at Grace's home for prayer once a month with God doing great things! Let's continue to pray for her as she faces lack and a lot of persecution from the Catholics, etc. 

It is a place where the gospel is rarely preached because preachers are treated harshly, so this has caused fear to many brethren. My wife with the team boldly preached the gospel of repentance without any harassment or resistance; we give glory to God and thank Him for His care and protection!

God bless you brother Len, 

Br Grace.

Hi dear brother Len, 

Today we traveled to Otubpi township, 45 kms away from Soroti along Lira road. We had a sharing with Church leaders and pastors, planning, encouraging ourselves, reaching out to the harvest for Jesus Christ; seeing that His return is imminent and soon! At the same time, I shared with them about preparing the Church to be pure, waiting for His return. 

Afterwards we went out to the harvest where about 10 people gave their lives to the Lord, some of who you may see in the pics together with myself.

Blessings bro.

September 20, 2025
We thank God for today; 15 people gave their lives to the Lord. Unfortunately yesterday we lacked electricity to charge the phones, so I didn't take photos of the outreach.

September 19, 2025
Brother Grace shared about the soon return of our Lord, and equipped them for the harvest in a nearby Church. It was another day of evangelism with salvations and many miracles! The team went out door-to-door, and about 50 people gave their lives to the Lord today. 

September 18, 2025
Hi dear brother Len, 

The extra team that was in Mbale (see photo) just traveled back; the Lord saved as many people as possible, 58 in total, plus several cases of healing and deliverance. We were hosted in a Church along Butaleja road.

The lady, Alima, pictured in the middle of the photo in album (showing three women with one holding a small child) has been a Moslem, but has now come to the Lord.

We have found door to door evangelism very effective, where we interact with individuals and groups of people and are open to share their life stories!

The boy Sadala (pictured with me in the green garden in photo album) gave his life to Jesus Christ today during evangelism campaign we had today in Soroti. The door-to-door preaching resulted in 37 people coming to the Lord. 

Br Grace. 

September 17, 2025
One of our team members, bro Max P shared the gospel with some youths during their football season (see photo of team wearing blue shirts). A number of more than 10 of them, including Moslems, came to the Lord in Sironko of Mbale, we thank God.

September 16, 2025
Hi dear brother Len, 

It has been another wonderful day here in Soroti, after some days away! We did evangelism in market street today. Our evangelistic team also shared the gospel in open grounds with groups of people. We prayed for quite a number. 

The woman (pictured in photo album) standing with me every one knows she is mad; when we met her after our evangelism in the city of Soroti, the Spirit of the Lord led me; I quickly grabbed her hand, laid on her and prayed for her deliverance and salvation. 

After prayer she sang a song in English, " I have decided to follow Jesus..." I then asked her to preach to the business ladies and men by the road side, she preached, " repent, repent of your sins.....! Every one was amazed! I bought her some ripe bananas, and she was grateful. 

To God be the glory because time back I dreamt I had prayed for the same woman!

Also...the parents of Martha (see photo album) found us preaching in Soroti town; they asked us to go and pray for their sick daughter with wounds in every part of the body, with a flow of blood!

After we obeyed and went, I quickly led her to a confession prayer; her mother and aunt thanked God ;they had been praying for some time that the Lord would save her, we then prayed for her healing trusting God she will get well. I asked the others if they were willing to receive Christ, of which her father accepted, God is great! Continue to pray for her total healing as even we exchanged contacts with them,

Glory to Him!

Blessings. 

September 15, 2025
Hallelujah! It happened again today; many salvations happened. I estimate 20 [people made decisions for Christ], but will find out from the other [team members], as we went door-to-door in different directions.

September 12, 2025
Praise the Lord brother, this (photo in album) is Kampala evangelism today. There is also a video of brother Grace leading people in the sinner's prayer in the streets of Kampala.

Dear my brother Len, 

We have had a successful evangelistic mission today again. The people here were very receptive to the gospel; we prayed a couple times with different people receiving the Lord. There is one called Maria, from a Catholic background who received the Lord with enthusiasm. We rejoice!

There was both open air preaching [as you see in the video in the photo album], and also one-on-one evangelism.

NB Brother, there is a lady called Lilian, an intercessor in the Church in which we are hosted, who didn't know about our evangelistic campaign at all! I saw her for the first time. During prayer the Lord gave her a message directed to me saying, "Tell that man of God, he needs Guidance from the Lord as they do evangelism around!" I'm so amazed, and I thanked God!

Thank you brother! 

Br Grace

September 11, 2025
Dear brother Len, Praise the Lord! A total of over 20 people gave their lives to the Lord today; glory to Him!

We had good time together in the above Church (see photo album of worship meeting) today, encouraging ourselves about the soon coming of the Lord, praying for the harvest before dispersing to different locations fishing. Thank you for your prayers, they are working!

Br Grace

September 10, 2025
By evening the Lord gave us the grace; we went to a Church in Kampala and have been hosted!

The team you see (in the photo album) is part of the evangelism team, as we moved in groups.

September 6, 2025
Praise the Lord, brother Len,

Today our team had to take the number of ten people who had received the Lord for water baptism.

Blessings, 

Br Grace. 

September 5, 2025
Dear brother Len, 

It's been another day of it's own experience, as we preached in the streets of Mbale. 

The Moslems, upon seeing us, stirred up crowds of people to oppose us; I thank God who helped to disperse them; a number of men who listened started cheering up for Jesus, some believed!

I want to testify, a number of us, and a few brethren in the conference who went out with us, [and as a result,] more than 80 people came to the Lord these 3 days, glory to Jesus!!

Thankyou for your support and prayers 

Br Grace. 

September 4, 2025
Dear brother Len, it has been another wonderful day; men and women gave their lives to the Lord in market street of Mbale. I'm wearing a dark blue jacket still. 

Bro Len there was street preaching here and was awesome as we went out in two's preaching. A number of people came to the Lord and possibly winding up [here] tomorrow. We need more of God's grace before moving on, 

Br Grace

September 3, 2025
Dear brother Len, praise the Lord!

Our team set out from Soroti and arrived here in Mbale late afternoon today;

You can view myself wearing a dark blue jacket holding a microphone preaching. To our amazement there was a good response from the streets of Mbale as people chanted, "Hallelujah! Amen!"  I majorly received resistance from a Moslem man, whom you see seated with a red shirt.  At the end of my preaching he came heckling me. I prayed for the crowds and pledged to return tomorrow. Of course there are many streets and villages to reach.

It turned out to be very late wondering where to sleep and have the meals. God does miracles, we went to a nearby Church, "City Victory Church " that is hosting a conference; here we are being accommodated and taking our meals!!

We are most likely to finish 3 days here going out to the harvest and returning to the conference venue for evening sessions. We thank God for His guidance and provision where to sleep and take free meals!!

By the way we met a long time Pastor friend of mine from Pallisa with his wife; the wife invited us to go visit their Church after Mbale; just asking the Holy Spirit to lead us.

Blessings to you 🙏, 

Bro Grace. 

September 2, 2025
Dearest my brother Len, praise the Lord!

Our God is so good; I received a call yesterday during a pastors meeting that I was asked to preach in a Crusade today; I thank God for His plans! Just in line with our missions program! More than 50 people gave their lives to the Lord. 

Bro Grace. 

September 1, 2025
Dear brother Len,  

we are here as Pastors and received a team from Mulinde John (pastor) confirming the urgent call from the Lord to prepare the Church for His imminent return. I shared with them about the return of the Lord and most are returning to their communities to equip the Church ready to evangelize the world.

One pastor lady by the name Helen is crying [that] she wants to join our mission team. She says, "Grace, do not leave me dying!" We have accepted her into our team of 10, now making 11.

You may see the pics; I'm wearing a light blue shirt.

God bless you brother, 

Bro Grace. 

August 29, 2025
Hi brother, a number of people gave their lives to the Lord today; it was all wonderful!

I was able to reach out with my team, and there was unexplainable joy during our preaching, the people danced for joy!

We are now heading to Tubur to meet leaders and reach out to the harvest together. 

God bless you greatly brother!

Bro Grace. 

August 26, 2025
Dear bro,

This lady named Betty with the striped white-and-black blouse gave her life to the Lord; she got healed of knee pains and back pain. she is very happy.

August 23, 2025
Dear brother Len, 

This one especially has astounded me; I'm totally surprised at what the Lord is doing!!!! This is our 3rd day here discipling and reaching out to the communities for the Lord. 

As we started sharing today and at the time of prayer, welcoming the Holy Spirit, He really came upon the Church of over 60 in attendance, including women and men. 

As we were laying hands on people, the Lord led me to lay a hand on a lady called Sarah. Sarah didn't know the warning message of the Lord's coming back I came with; she is new and newly filled by the Holy Spirit! Immediately she burst into tongues, cried with a loud voice and tears rolling. After that intense prayer, Sarah testified, "During the prayer she received too much power come to her, and she saw men who were wearing very white clothes. She then found herself with 10 others and the men in white caught up to heaven. This vision burdened her, so she asked the Lord, "Why is it we were many in the Church but only 11 were taken to heaven with the men in white!!!!?"

Then the Lord showed her this vision, "The people who were left behind appeared to her each with strings attached to their fingers, and some of the strings on the men's fingers were connected to women, while some of the women's strings were connected to men; others were busy with money doing their businesses, others were swimming in the water, and all people were busy in the things of the world!"

The voice told her, "Jesus is coming back very soon and the Church is not ready!!!"

I'm emailing this to you with Sarah's photo. I wanted to have taken a video of her testimony but she is shaking, not able to speak well because of the things she saw! This is exactly what you have communicated (see article on September Rapture), and I'm busy traveling to different places with my team and will get back to you again,

Be blessed my brother, 

Bro Grace.
