My son Daniel and I arrived in Lahore on 28th March 2005 at 02.00hrs and were met at the Airport by Senior Pastor
Anwar Fazal and members of his team.
On the Monday evening we went to the house of another pastor who had spoken against Anwar Fazal’s
Ministry and had become ill. We prayed for him and all of his family and then went on to the house of the well-educated
man who acts as one of the interpreters for visiting British and American guests.
Along with us were 2 American guests Larry Howell and John Lewis who we were able to chat to a lot until they left to return
to the USA on Tuesday 29th. We had a very nice dinner at the interpreter’s house and both us and the Americans
were given gifts which was very kind of them.
At the morning service on Tuesday 29th Larry preached and we all prayed for the large number of people who came
forward for prayer.
Later on in the morning, I went with Pastor Manawar to his house to see his wife and new baby.
As the day went on, I began to feel increasingly unwell, the urine infection which I had in the UK 2 weeks before leaving
for Pakistan came back again.
On Wednesday morning Daniel and me were driven to the hairdressers to be prepared for the healing meeting in the evening.
I still did not feel well and had a temperature.
At the healing meeting on Wednesday evening, I felt ill and did not know whether I would make it to preach, but the Anointing
of the Holy Spirit took over and I preached OK.
At the end I gave an altar call and a lot of people stood up to repent of their sins and make Jesus Christ Lord and Saviour
of their lives. Afterwards I was told the number was over a thousand.
After the meeting I had prayer and the fever went down, but another problem developed during the night which was of a delicate
nature involving parts of a man’s anatomy.
I managed to relate the problem to the English speaking Pakistanis after preaching on forgiveness at the 8am meeting.
The help I received from then on is a testimoney in itself, they took me to a hospital to see a Doctor and he prescribed
antibiotics and anti-inflammitories. Had I been an ordinary person on an ordinary holiday, I would have been in serious trouble,
but being amongst loving Christian people everything was taken care of.
Daniel took my job by going to a school and giving out prizes and he was given a great welcome.
During the Thursday, pastor Abraham Daniel was in Lahore and Anwar Fazal, Abraham Daniel and me decided it would be best
if Daniel and me travelled back to his house in Sahiwal to rest and do other things there. It is a lovely quiet place at Sahiwal,
details of the Ministry there can be found on the Gospel Mission Pakistan page.
On Saturday evening, we went to a house meeting and preached to a small group, as usual we had a wonderful welcome. It
must take a long time to make those beautiful garlands of Rosepetals.
On Sunday Morning I preached at the meeting and prayed for the sick afterwards and later went to the hospital to pray for
a woman who had collapsed early on Sunday morning.. Felt strong Anointing.
April:- on way back to Sahiwal Mr John Hilliard & his son David expressed the desire of Coming to
sahiwal to visit us.He joined us & Although he was not doing well because of some weather & water problems we still
has some nice programs in the home of our Church Elders & at Gospel Church.
God used Bro, John abunduntly to heal the people Many Got healed espacially an old lady who is mother
of one of our elders had to be hospitalised was immadiatly healed As We Prayed for her in the hospital. Bro John is very much
interusted in supporting the work in Pakistan. We have appointed him as a mission's represntative in UK.
The 2 paragraphs above are taken frtom a newsletter sent to me by Pastor Abraham Daniel on 1st June 2005
Returned to Lahore on Sunday afternoon., 4 speed cameras on the road at various places, if they catch you the fine is £7,
Pastor Abraham very shocked to hear our fine is £60 ,he said he might give up driving if fined that much..
We had a meal and were presented with gifts and also gave some and had a final meeting with all the friends in Anwar’s
living room.
