NEWSLETTER Issue 6 April 2013
GREETINGS
Dear Friends and supporters of Hope To All Nations and Isaac Television, thank you all so very much for your continuing support of the work that we are involved in with keeping the Satellite Television Station broadcasting throughout the Middle East and beyond and spreading GOD,s love to more than 65 nations of the world.
ISAAC TV TESTIMONIES
Recent testimonies received from the offices of Isaac Television in Pakistan include,
A married couple from Saudi Arabia who had suffered from infertility problems for over 12 years of their marriage phoned the live show called Winning Souls to ask for prayer last year for help to have a child.
They recently phoned again but this time with a testimony of how GOD healed their infertility and they have been blessed with the safe arrival of a healthy baby boy.
A Young Woman came to Isaac Television to visit the staff and told them of an answer to her prayers.
What is remarkable is that she told of how she was a paralysed patient who watched Isaac Television while laying on her bed. The power of GOD touched her through the Television where she lay, she was healed instantly of her paralysis and she made the journey to Isaac TV to share her good news with the staff. Praise GOD.
Remember friends, it is because of your support that these people watched Isaac Television being broadcast and were able to respond to the prompting of GOD and ring in to ask for prayer.
So rejoice, because you helped them as certainly as if you had personally prayed for their needs yourselves.
Isaac Television receives on average approximately 2000 calls every day from viewers throughout the 65 countries where the station broadcasts to. They call for prayer, for salvation and to know more about the Christian bible and for help from Jesus Christ.
Isaac Television is doing in a 1 hour segment, what would take us an entire lifetime of travelling and preaching. It also reaches where we cannot go, like warzones and Nations like Mecca that forbids Christians from entering. In fact, 65% of Isaac Televisions calls come from Saudi Arabia.
It only costs $52.00 to keep Isaac Television on air for 1 hour.
Would you consider becoming a supporter for 1 hour per month?
Your contribution of $52.00 for that 1 hour, (or $26.00 for half an hour) would send the Message of Hope and Peace throughout 65 Nations to an audience in excess of 1 Billion people. During this hour, about 82.3 calls are received at Isaac Television Call Centre. Your support can reach the Nations of Islam with the Gospel of Jesus and bring the answers that only HE can bring. If you would like to become a supporter of this amazing work please contact us.
ISAAC TV NEWS
Some of you may be aware that recently a Christian neighbourhood in BadamiBargharea, Lahore was the target of an angry mob citing Blasphemy as the reason to set fire to homes of the Christians. By the evening more than 178 homes, 2 Churches and 18 shops and businesses, along with motorbikes and rickshaws( Pakistani transport) were burned beyond repair.
These dear people face struggles every day and now some of them have lost everything they owned for basic living, while others have lost their businesses or transport to work. Still others have no home left to go to. Please remember these people in your prayers and if you would like to do something practical to help know that any donations you make for this purpose will go directly to the affected people. Simply contact us at Hope to All Nations and we will take care of it.
Pastor Anwar Fazal and the staff at Isaac Television have already been to visit those affected by this fire and donations are providing water coolers and blankets for the families.
NEWS FROM UGANDA
Last year we (the trustees of Hope To All Nations) had the privilege of meeting a Pastor from Uganda.
He was staying at the home of a dear friend and preaching at various meetings.
His name was Pastor Godfrey Luwagga, from Kampala, Uganda.
Over lunch one day he expressed his desire for a way to help provide food for the orphanage and school he was running and said he had been praying for a tractor to help achieve this goal.
On further discussions it seemed that a certain type of tractor of a certain age (not a modern computerised one) would serve the need best.
But these tractors were not easy to find as they were quite old. What was needed was a working tractor, with spare parts and a way to get it to Kampala.
Pastor Godfrey left New Zealand for home with hope in his heart and we began the search for the elusive tractor.
We were not finding it to be an easy task but left it to GOD to help and continued to pray and leave the details for him to work out.
Then forward almost 1 year and a young couple revealed that they were interested in helping in Uganda with orphans. It was not very long until GOD opened doors for them and they recently rang and told us that the very elusive tractor that we had prayed for was in their reach. And not just one but two tractors in perfect working order with spare parts and various other irrigation supplies are there in a shed on a family members property. How amazing!
It was with excitement that Anton and I carried this information when we attended the New Life Conference in Rotorua last month.
On the last day of the conference as we were preparing to leave a Ugandan man came up to say hello.
We were delighted to speak with him and learn that he was a friend of Pastor Godfrey. In fact they lived only 10 minutes away from each other.
This man’s name was Pastor George Nsamba and he came to Auckland to stay in our home for a few days.
We greatly enjoyed getting to know him and of course he met and had dinner with the young couple who have found the tractors.
We also learned about the Ministry and school that Pastor George is taking care of and we will keep you informed of the great things happening there too.
Pastor George has returned to Kampala with good news for his friend Pastor Godfrey, and he has invited us to come to Uganda which we intend to do next year.
Uganda has a very interesting past (some of you may remember what happened when an Israeli aircraft full of Israeli citizens was held hostage in Uganda at Entebbe Airport)
We are excited to see what plans GOD has in the following months for the nation of Uganda and we will keep you updated.
THANKS
In closing, we at Hope To All Nations want to say Thank You. For all you are doing and for what you are giving, we are eternally grateful.
The world as we know it is changing because of you and Isaac Television and the message of Hope it is bringing. Who knows how long this window of opportunity into these troubled regions will be open for us . Don’t wait, do something important for GOD today.
GOD bless you all until next time,
