A NOTE FROM TAMRYN What an extraordinary time we had in Sawla, Ethiopia! From 28 February to 3 March, we lifted the name of Jesus on high and He poured Himself out with unrelenting generosity. Men and women joined us from surrounding villages and together, we called on the Lord. Be blessed by the report that follows. Later this month, we will be holding a one-night crusade in the gang-ridden township of Atlantis, Cape Town. Then, come April, our next five-day crusade shall take place in Madabani, a rural community in the Limpopo province of South Africa. Together with you, Africa is being saved!
SAWLA HAS SURRENDERED ALL TO JESUS Sawla sits in the south of Ethiopia. Hedged by mountains, this small town is accessed by flying for an hour from the capital, Addis Ababa and then spending four hours navigating winding roads and mountainous passes. It has large Muslim and Orthodox congregations, the cries from their prayer towers being heard regularly. What an opportunity to impact tens of thousands for Jesus in a remote, rural location! On the afternoon of the first day, my team and I shared a meal of kitfo (raw meat) with the mayor and his cabinet. I preached fervently and the message of the blood of Jesus and its sin-destroying power was wonderfully received. Then, come evening, the local soccer pitch was covered by thousands. Over five services, the response to the Gospel was fantastic. Follow-up material was distributed to 28,744 precious converts, our ushers working hard to collect their personal details. The pastors are ecstatic and we are rejoicing together with them!

Young and old listen to the Gospel message
Holy Spirit rain down As we do at every crusade, the Gospel message was followed by a message on the Holy Spirit baptism, during three of the evening meetings. When we prayed on the final night for the fire to fall, it felt like the windows of heaven were swung open. Men and women, young and old were baptised in the Spirit of God. Some fell to the ground, overwhelmed by His presence.

Others wept with joy, allowing Him to permeate them through and through with Himself. Broken bodies were put to rights. Demons fled. It was fantastic, glorious, God-breathed chaos that resulted in thousands being equipped to preach Jesus with power. We thank the Lord!
Tens of thousands gather to hear the word of God
The crusade field is a happy place
Heartfelt thanks We left Sawla with hearts filled with joy. Thank you so, so much for your support, dear friend. Such has resulted in another mighty harvest of precious souls. Tens of thousands have been saved and filled with the Spirit. The sick have been healed and the tormented, liberated. Another African town has been utterly transformed by the power of the Gospel and your heart to see Africa saved! Please keep the local pastors in your prayers as they follow up the new converts.
A moment with Jesus, eyes fixed on Him and Him alone
Follow-up material is eagerly received
The name of the Lord is passionately called upon
