Last night, the ESM Edmonton Campus leadership team and their families gathered in fellowship to celebrate all that God has done in our lives. We shared testimonies of how our lives have changed since we each began our journey with Encounter Ministries, and the common theme resting on everyone’s heart was complete and utter gratitude.
Each of us discovered ESM in different phases of our life. We were broken, “dried out”, “stoney-hearted” Catholics looking for a way to reignite and deepen our Faith… and did we ever find it!
Most of our first experiences with the school were through a healing service, where God, in his infinite Wisdom, gently touched our hearts and woke up a part of our being that we didn’t know was asleep.
After those healing services, the next logical step was to attend a weekend School of Identity or the Summer Intensive, where each person experienced a RADICAL SHIFT in their faith. Whether we walked into those events with a skeptical heart or because “my spouse made me come,” we left transformed and wanted MORE OF GOD.
“I could hear God’s voice! For the first time ever, I could hear Him!”
“I stood there reading the ESM pamphlet and I realized that this was the real deal… ESM actually delivered everything they promised”
“I would ask God to show me His heart for someone… and He would. That changed my prayer life!”
“The word ‘transformation’ isn’t strong enough to describe how I changed through my time at ESM. We need a stronger word: earth-shattering, mind-blowing… I don’t know if there is a word strong enough to describe how my life has changed.”
To paraphrase a popular Christian show: I was one way before, and now I am completely different. What happened in between was my time at ESM Edmonton Campus where I was taught, equipped and activated in my God-given gifts from the Holy Spirit, all in a safe, supportive, loving community.
ESM Edmonton Campus has changed families, mended relationships, rebuilt marriages, and gave us direction. ESM didn't just teach us about God -- they gave us the tools to work with and for God.
