North West Province, South Africa
2 more weeks to go:Campaign completes on Friday 8 August
North West Campaign Report to date, since April: About 101 609 students , teachers and citizens decided for Jesus in our Mass Crusade and 199 School Campaigns in North West Province, South Africa
We have just begun phase two of our Campaign. My heart is rejoicing and leaping for joy over all the precious people that have responded to the call of salvation.
There is only one Savior between heaven and earth and His name is Jesus. The whole world deserves to hear about Him. I have dedicated my life to this cause. I think, dream, desire and plan to lead as many souls to Jesus as is possible. I have also realized that this process can be multiplied if I have a team of evangelists around me doing likewise.
These school campaigns were made possible by my associate evangelists and I reaching out daily into the surrounding region, reaching out to the schools. We have been traveling as far as 70km one way to reach some of these remote schools. It was a huge effort to do so, yet in light of what Jesus did for us, it was a joy and necessary responsibility.
This has been one of our longest campaigns to date, in that we started in April and will finish in August. We have soaked the region with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
We have reached the areas of Rustenburg, Mogwase, Ledig, Chaneng, Boitekong, Mabaskraal and many others.
4 WHITE SCHOOLS BEEN REACHED
We have reached out to 4 predominantly white schools of Rustenburg (with about 10 left). The response was absolutely over whelming. I would say that about 95% of all the students made decisions to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. On each new Campaign, we will also now endeavor to reach the typical white suburban schools with the gospel.
It was awesome to see these students respond to Dumisani's Zulu gospel singing and dancing. They didn’t quite know the words, yet tried to keep up. I was smiling all the way at this sight.
I had many children open up here to the hurts and abuses that they have been through. I thank the Lord that He used us to share about His love to these needy children.
195 TOWNSHIP SCHOOLS REACHED
189 of the 193 schools that we campaigned in were in the rural townships of the North West. These children were so open to Jesus. When we shared the truths about the person of Jesus, He simply becomes irresistible to people. It’s like He reaches deep down in their souls and touches them in a loving and gentle way.
Over 10000 students weekly were receiving Jesus in our 9 week campaign. As an evangelist and as a Christian, I can tell you that this is heaven on earth.
I had girls come up to me almost daily in the schools, sharing how they have been raped and molested. I prayed for each one and Jesus began to heal their broken hearts and restore them.
The greatest gift that we could give them was to lead them all to the Savior.
CHURCH FOLLOW-UP
We have networked and communicated with all 56 churches on a weekly basis and periodic basis. They have been given the spiritual responsibility of visiting and adopting the schools in their area for adoption and follow up purposes.
Each student at each school, as well as each person at the mass crusade, was given a Book of Hope-discipleship magazine , as well as a information brochure with the list of 56 participating churches, including my 9pm TBN program.

I am delighted and excited to report to you that we have recently made history in our ministry.
We have recently now lead over 1 million and ten thousand people to Jesus in 131 City Campaigns (Since 1996) and 1415 School Campaigns (Since 2002) around the nations of South Africa, Swaziland and Botswana.
I want to thank all of our friends and financial supporters for all your investments into this soul winning miracle. Without the Lords grace on our lives and your support, none of this would have been possible. I know that the Lord will reward you for all that you have done to help achieve this result. I know that Heaven rejoices over one soul that repents, just imagine the grand celebration going on right now with over one million people extra in the kingdom. I am rejoicing with my hands raised high, in honor of all that the Lord has done in our midst.
