By the grace of God we reached Okara city safely. Thank you for your prayers as all the GCI participants was blessed by the teaching sessions. This was our first GCI training in this place. There were twenty eight participants for our GCI training.

Subjects Taught
Four subjects were taught.  Prayer, Praise and Worship, Ministry Planning and Evangelism.
 
Home Visitation
We visited 15 homes in Okara City on the first day. On the second day we visited 13 homes in village 55. We prayed for the sick people and invited them to come for the Night Rally.

Night Rally
The Night Rally was held at the Old Christian Colony, Village Chak No 55 and Ibraheem Colony. We held three nights of rally. Thirty people accepted Jesus as their personal Saviour, and seventeen people received healing and three went for water baptism.

Community Projects
Two sewing centres have been set up in District Okara where twenty six girls were now being trained. We gave them six sewing machines and they needed ten more. 
  

            
  
   
Testimony
1. Ps Ejaz M
I am thankful to the God and GCI Training Team who came in District Okara and organized first GCI Training. I am much blessed and learnt many new things from the GCI training and from all the GCI teachers. I have been serving the Lord since 2006. The teachers taught well about the Ministry Planning, Prayer, Praise and Worship and Evangelism.  I will be using this method in my ministry work and I hope I will win more souls for the glory of God. We are praying for the GCI leaders and teachers of Pakistan. May God bless them and use them mightily for His glory in Pakistan.

2. Mr. Shrif M
I am blessed by this GCI Training. I learn new methods for evangelism, how to invite people for meetings, how to pray for souls and how to preach the Gospel. I realize that even as young person I have to do God’s work and that preaching the Gospel is responsibility of all Christians. I know now that people are hungry for God’s word and I have resolved in my heart to preach the Gospel to all the people I meet. May God bless the GCI team members and use them mightily for His glory.
