Hi everyone,

Hi everyone,

I hope you are well. I thought you would like a little news from Cape Town and CPx. We are in our third week and this week Joe Ewen, a friend from many years, is teaching on spirit= ual gifts and living the life of the Spirit. Here is an amazing report fresh fr= om yesterday from one of the students:

"In the 70 students we are broken up into smaller groups of house churches. Mike and I have a house church of 13 adults and 5 children. We ha= ve several guys from Dindella in our house. So a m= an named Abram from our house church went up for prayer. Abram does not speak Englis= h at all. So if he speaks to us he has an interpreter (his friend Raymond) repeat what he says. We really love Abram as he has this huge smile, warm hugs and= is a VERY hard worker. He has been helping us rebuild shanty's after a devasta= ting fire. We heard his story one evening and it was amazing. He came out of ancestral worship, drugs and such. He is in his 40's and told us that since being here and experiencing such love, God was healing some of the things he experienced in Apartheid. Mike has had a real bonding with Abram even thoug= h he could not speak the same language. Last Friday we even had a bless Abram day and each of us told him what we loved about him.

So Abram goes up for prayer. Joe prays for him and speaks things about him = and one of our girls in our house church is writing this down. She is writing it down because we all know he can not understand what the man is saying. Later that day Abram is quiet as always. And we are gathered as a house church to= go on outreach. I go get in the car waiting for Abram and others to join and A= bram is back with Mike. Then Abram comes to the car and we go. As I am driving to our outreach I get this text from Mike he texts "Ask Abram what happen= ed today". So I am driving and Abram is in the car and a fellow Dindella is in the car to interpret if he would speak= so I say Abram what happened today, Mike just text me? Abram opens his mouth and speaks Perfect English and said when the man prayed for me, fire came from = my feet all the way to my head and then God said open your mouth Abram and spe= ak. So he speaks and is speaking perfect English. I almost have a wreck a= s I am so astounded. This is just amazing. We are all just witnessing God's tou= ch.

It so moved me because it took a miracle to get Abram here and all our meet= ings are in English. He has sat patiently hour after hour. This is truly a gift = from God to him but to us as well because we will get to hear him. I had to let = you know about this miracle."

We are also busy working in three poor communities: Red Hill, Masiphumelele and Ocean View. In Red Hill we are help= ing people replace their shack homes burnt in a brush fire three weeks ago. We = are believing God for a church to be planted there.

Got to go.

Blessings,

Floyd
