uganda

On 1st January, 2017, Emmanuel Church together with all the other ministry leaders went for a mission set to win more soul to the Kingdom of God.

The Mission took place in Iganga in a place called Bulamagi. In connection with True Vine Church the conference took place in the Church premises. This conference took 3 days from morning at 9 am to 2 pm and the theme of this mission was "Launching deeper in Christ Jesus".

Pr. Jonah the preacher of True Vine Church who is also the host of this conference shared the first message from Mark.1:16-20 this is the story of four fishermen who were called as disciples. From his teaching he emphasized on the quick and positive response to the call of Jesus just as Simon, Andrew, James and John did when Jesus called them to follow Him so He could make them fishers of  men. 

Pr. Micheal then took over and taught about How evil attracts a curse to a nation as we read from 1 Kings.18:40-46. This is the story were Elijah executes all the prophets of Baal and then the drought that had befall the nation stopped and it received rain as Elijah went to the top of the mountain and prayed. At the end of His message he emphasized the importance of prayer in tough times, the value of persistence in prayer as well as faith just as shown by Prophet Elijah. 

Evangelist Martin preached about the kind of person God is looking for; one with a contrite heart who worships and seeks God in Spirit and in truth and the purpose of the will of God in our lives just as Jesus said in Matthew.26:39. He concluded by encouraging each one of us to keep the word of God in our hearts so God come and make us their home as Jesus said in John.14:23.

The ministry leaders help in leading Praise and worship together with the other worship teams that were present at the conference and the Elim leader together with other intercessory ministers led the Morning glory intercession sessions. A number of people accepted Christ and got healed which was so powerful as the Spirit of God was filled in this place.
