Houston, Texas
Monday, August 31, 2009
Dear Fellow Disciples of the Lord Jesus,
We have received an exciting report and photo from Long Island, New York. This past weekend a young brother named John Slionski of Army For God conducted the Elijah Challenge Basic Training for a group of over 50 disciples. (John was trained under Joseph White, who attended the Advanced Training in Houston last March.) Below is John’s preliminary report:
“Praise GOD for His amazing works! We trained and discipled over 50 people tonight! We had 7 people get full healing on video tape and then God’s ‘craziness’ broke loose and people were ready for war (for the gospel)! It was an amazing night and I will send u some pics and try to upload the video which is over an hour of God’s ‘craziness’ on Rich Keltner’s Elijah Challenge YouTube. Hope we can speak one day soon. Give our love to your wife. Love you and be blessed.”

Prayer Request for Persecuted Christians in India
We have received a report from Brother Subodh who recently visited Christians who had suffered from bloody persecution in Orissa last fall. They are now rebuilding their lives after fleeing homes and villages destroyed by fundamentalist Hindus. Some of you were very kind to send offerings to help them. There is still a need for funds to purchase building materials for their homes. Please pray that the Lord will provide the needed funds for these Christians. For Subodh’s report including photos of the believers in their current situation, please click on http://www.theelijahchallenge.org/Elijah%20Challengers/Subodh%20Jena/Subodh_Jena18.htm.
Thank you for your prayers, dear ones.
Sincerely in Christ,
William & Lucille
