Oasis Team Member: Bruce Ahlberg in India


"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us" (Ephesians 3:20).

It has been a tremendous time of ministry!

The monsoon season began early this year, but that didn't stop people from coming to the Gospel & Healing Festival. A crowd of 7,000 gathered the last evening and a lot of people stood in the rain to receive Christ as their Lord and Savior!

Thousands of people have made decisions to follow Jesus as their Lord and Savior during the festivals, and we have witnessed miraculous healings of blind eyes and deaf ears opened; chronic headache and body pain vanishing; tumors disappearing; and people set free from demonic possession!

After the festival, one man said he literally felt his sins lift off his body when he prayed for Christ to be his Savior. Another man confessed to being a very wicked man and caused much evil in his community, but now he is a new person in Christ. Many of the new believers have come out of Hinduism and have decided to leave behind the idols they worshiped. It is such a thrill to see God touch spirits, souls and bodies of the people at the festival.

We have also dedicated many fresh-water wells and new churches. Clean water is such a blessing to the communities, and the residents have noticed an improved difference in their health. The people are so appreciative for the help they have received from individuals, couples, and churches in the U.S. who have donated money for fresh-water wells and church buildings.

Discipleship is the next step to help these new believers grow in their faith and understanding. Please pray that the harvest of souls will be retained through the visitation of the participating pastors and their church members.

Thank you for your prayers and support of Oasis World Ministries.
