If, like me, you’ve been to many conferences about World Mission you may have wondered why no actual Evangelism happens.
Well, for those of us resident in Cape Town we had a treat this morning as we welcomed numerous Congress participants to a local church service at Jubilee Community Church.
Guest Speaker was my good friend Michael Ramsden. It was also a pleasure for me to meet Rebecca Manly Pippert for the first time. Michael shared the gospel which was followed by a response time when 10 people indicated they wanted to give their lives to Christ then and there – and came forward in response.
A little later on an eleventh man came forward – who happened to be a driver who had been assigned to Congress participants to bring them to Jubilee. This man also gave his life to Christ.
Friends, the Congress has begun already – with souls coming to Christ!
If you are a participant and are sharing the gospel with locals you can bring them to an evangelistic meeting on Thursday evening at Jubilee with Tim Keller (this is a ticketed event). Details from [email protected]

Looking forward to the Congress!
