South Haven, IN


Here are some testimonies from our first week out on the “WAR of Special Forces”!
We even had a viola join us!

“One of the greatest things was that Zack brought John on Thursday to get saved. John brought Michael on Friday to make sure he was saved, too.
After he walked out of the counseling room, they looked at each other and said, ‘Awesome!’ and gave each other knuckles.”

Glenn prayed for recruits and not just recruits, but recruits that would actually come.
What kind of teen would give out his name and phone number? After each recruit, Glenn prayed for another one. The Lord really answered and increased his faith. He knows that he can’t do it, but HE can!!

Philip prayed for lasting fruit.
Josh, Philip, and Glenn
Zack came the first night and was saved! Thursday he joined the WAR guys for prayer before the activities began. He prayed that the rain would be held back and that others would come and make the same decision he did. The Lord answered his prayers! He came every night and is excited about his new life in Christ!

Josh counseled a guy who was contemplating doing suicide later that night.
He had prayed to be saved the night before, but was so discouraged about his mess of a life that it just seemed best to go to Heaven right away. Josh shared some verses about assurance, Who saved him and that sins can be cleased each time they are committed (I John 1:9). Satan is a great deceiver and wants us to feel that there is no hope. The Holy Spirit is more powerful than Satan, but HE has to be listened to. Fellowship with the Holy Spirit is so important. I Cor 10:13 - there is always a way of escape. The teen then replied, “That changes everything!” :)



Josh is tired

There was definiately spiritual warfare Friday night. There was a group of about 7 teens that came late. They were just in time for the food. After a little while, the same 3 guys that had left early the night before were again going to just show up for food and then leave by the end of the trivia time. Some of the girls seemed as if they were going to leave too, but they decided to stay. These girls, who were tempted to go, got saved that night! Praise the Lord they stayed for the whole time!
