Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ! We're pleased to share with you the wonderful things the Lord has been doing in our lives and ministry.
Christopher has been accepted for enrollment at a local technical college, where he plans to begin studying for his Associates degree in IT next month. We continue to pray and believe God to provide him with a well-paying job in his field.
Christopher is also scheduled for oral surgery to remove his four wisdom teeth on Thursday, December 21st. Due to the fact that his teeth are impacted, it is considered a difficult procedure, even for a wisdom tooth extraction. Please pray that all goes well during surgery with no adverse drug reactions, no complications, and a speedy recovery after surgery with no dry sockets, no infections, and no need for follow up medical care (eg., to stop the bleeding).

Sister Catherine"
Len received the following report from brother Tom, who is a pastor in Uganda overseeing several churches:
Ministry: As we continue to administer our discipleship training school (DTS), now in its eighth year, we'd like to update you on the good things that God is doing with it. By the grace of God, we currently have disciples in five nations including Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria, South Sudan, and the United Kingdom.

"Hello, praise God, dear brother Len. I am so excited to testify about what the Lord is doing in my life through DTS school. I feel blessed to believe that yes, God is transforming me by being in the DTS program. As I started studying Third year second quarter, I quickly noticed a sudden change in my spirit as I received the joy of the Holy Spirit. I feel thrilled in my bones as I kept on reading.
What blesses me most is the course work reading "the beauty of brokenness."
Praise the Lord for what He's doing in brother Max's life.
"Praise the Lord Jesus, Brother Len,
I am glad to testify that, by the grace of God, I just finished the last quarter, and am now in a new one. I have been able to learn new things from the Word of God, while reading and studying the course works. For example, in The Kingdom of God II course during my last quarter, it was interesting to know how many physical things are translated to spiritual things and vice versa (e.g., bread from heaven appearing on earth), and learning about the nature of God's Kingdom. That subject, among many others, has added virtue to my faith.
I also thank God, who has kept us alive and healthy. My daughter has been sick, and God healed her. My dad is still undergoing treatment after the successful operation, of which we are continuing to believe God for complete healing.
Yesterday I had the opportunity to minister the word of encouragement to my clients, who are HIV positive, and many were surely encouraged and strengthened. This is as a result of the knowledge I have acquired from different aspects of the DTS training, (i.e. weekly Bible reading, course work, and LTG meetings).
Thank you, God bless you
Sis Rebecca."
Once again, we can truly say, "Praise God" for what He's been doing in her life.

"Dear brother Len and sister Jennifer.
At 3:00 am at night, I woke up from a dream, and our Lord gave me the interpretation of it.
In the dream, I was sitting in a big room, and Christians from Church were seated all around the room, with a coffee table in the middle with Holy Bibles and candles on it. It was like a big prayer meeting.
Then a tall angel in white appeared, and he had a bow and arrow in his hands; and he walked all round the room until he came to a man seated next to me. Then the angel shot the man dead with his bow and arrow in the man's heart. Then I woke up.
The Lord interpreted it and said to me, 'In the dream, the man sitting next to you in the prayer meeting was a wolf in sheep's clothing, and you were his biggest threat. But My servant killed him to protect you, and I will protect My Church as long as they obey Me and My words. My Church needs to wake up. It is time for me to judge the Churches and punish the wolves in sheep's clothing. And I am asking my people to pray for discernment, as there are too many false gospels being preached, tickling people's ears and compromising with the world, therefore ignoring my commandments, allowing the spirit of lawlessness in, dirtying My Church, and the dress code of many of My daughters, wearing trousers or tights, revealing too much, and makeup and earrings. The Scriptures say it is forbidden for women to wear men's clothing. And my sons with open shirts and trousers on their hips. Christians will end up in hell, if they don't repent. And now is the time to witness the power of this, as an urgent warning to My Church through My Holy Spirit, as time is running out. This dream is a warning to my Church, and it's time to judge the false prophets. So Church, please be alert and be ready for Me, as the rapture will be in a twinkling of an eye. And remember the parable of the ten virgins.'
Our Lord wants His message witnessed to all His Church. This experience has made me feel more determined to witness and be more alert. I was quite scared to think that the devil sat next to me in a prayer meeting, a wolf in sheep's clothing, but greatly comforted that our Lord will protect us. I am praying for you all. Bless you all.
With love in Jesus Christ our Lord.
That was an amazing dream and interpretation the Lord gave to her, which bears witness and aligns with His Word. She said it occurred on December 9th. Please take it before the Lord and ask Him for discernment, as with any dream, vision, or revelation.
A very short, five-minute video of Catherine's testimony was published by God TV, which you can watch here. It's about how she was raised to life at age seventeen, after being dead for twenty minutes.
"Dear brother Leonard,
The Lord responded to your prayers for our crusade. We hosted up to five thousand people. Two hundred fifty four people got saved. We made a follow up and managed to baptize eighty-seven new converts. We give God all the glory for His marvelous work of salvation to the lost souls. Several church leaders from different denominations also attended. These are some of the new converts who were baptized (see photo)."
Praise the Lord. You can also check out the following article about what the Lord has done earlier this year through his Jesus Film ministry: Hundreds Saved in Uganda Through Jesus Film.
We would like to share with you a brief article highlighting the ministries of three of our graduates at the following link.
Len also sent out the Old News That's Still Fresh in December to pastors, elders, disciples, and laborers in the harvest in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. We encourage you to read it also, as it contains some excellent articles you won't find anywhere else.
Note: Some words in the recorded testimonies above may have been changed to correct the grammar and spelling, and to enhance their clarity and readability. This was done without changing the meaning.
In closing, we have much to praise God for, and many opportunities for you to join us in prayer.
Praise the Lord with us for the many answers to prayer:
