Brother Darrel has returned home, and Brother John is scheduled to arrive home tomorrow evening. He commented that the camp meeting was a great success with fervent prayers going up following every service. In addition, he said that over 150 had reported receiving a blessing from the Lord.

As we thank God for this time of refreshing experienced in South Africa, let’s remember the new converts in our prayers, that He will strengthen and sustain them.
