Report on Honduras Fire Teams, May of 2000

326,000 Find Christ In One Week!!

As a valued friend, we want to share the greatest week in the history of the Fellowship.

Historic . . . not since the days of the apostles have ordinary men reached an entire nation in only 7 days. 1,000 Fire Teams in 3,500 meetings from the congress to the military, from business to the universities ... from TV news shows ... national radio - the Good News came forth. Hundreds of thousands committed to Christ.

We are awe struck by the grace of God! It was two hours past midnight last Sunday in Honduras. What a week it had been. What can you say when everyone in the nation is impacted? What can you say when hundreds of thousands are receiving Christ? When almost no one turns down the Lord.

2 a.m. beneath the starry sky in front of a great mansion. We found ourselves praying the sinner’s prayer with three brothers that are among the wealthiest in the nation. As I looked up into the stars I couldn’t help remembering that just two hours before we were praying with twelve people, the lowly fisherman, his wife, son and nine employees among the poorest in the nation. How humbly they stood, tears coming down their cheeks, it seemed their faces changed like angels.

At the University a young lady gave a folded note to one of our Fire Team leaders. She said: “ I don’t need this anymore.” It was a suicide note. It said, “Dear Pappa, Dear Mamma, I love you very much but I have no hope. That’s why today is my last day.” She told her friend she would killed herself that day but instead our Fire Team brought a message of hope. She received the Lord and said, “Now I don’t need this note anymore because now I have hope.

The doctors’ offices were jammed with people because the nation’s hospitals were on strike. A doctor came out of his examining room and said to a nurse, “Where are all the patients? This room was jammed with patients only an hour ago.” She said, “I am sorry, Doctor but the men from Full Gospel Business Men came and prayed for the patients and they all left!”

Congress invited me to speak . . . after my message and their commitment to Christ . . . Congress gave a standing ovation . . . many declared their faith.

The Defense Minister and Chief of Staff called a special meeting of all the High Command. About 150 men stood with me as we prayed the sinner’s prayer.

Churches Jammed with new people . . . is the word we received from our first nationwide outreach in Nicaragua. Last year in Nicaragua in one week 97,000 received the Lord . . . with our continual work that number is now over 200,000 just in Nicaragua.
