Positive proof that Stealth Evangelism works!

Tremendous testimonies from Dunamis alumni pastors received only yesterday!

We just had a group of pastors, graduates from former classes, come over to the Mission Center yesterday. These are three of the testimonies they shared with us. Please take time to listen to their short reports on what has transpired since their training with Dunamis. They have each gone back to their own church and trained groups of reapers and have each seen significant increases in their ministry from taking the Stealth Evangelism Program.

Pastora Marilyn Palalon: Holy Spirit Christian Church went from 40 members to 1,724 in one and a half years. Their cell groups increased from 4 to 40. They also planted 3 new churches strategically in their area of Cavite. They originally won 5,899 people to the Lord during their training and the soul winning keeps on going!
Pastor Agustin took the Stealth course last year. His senior pastor at the time then turned over the struggling church of only 7 members to him. He began by training them and now today there are over 200 in his congregation.
Pastor Julz Ronquillo of Word of Hope in Pasay trained 29 reapers in their church. From that training they have added in their church 218 new members and started 52 cell groups. They also planted another church in the same area.

Please forward!

Please forward this newsletter with an encouragement to support this ministry so we can reach more of the unreached across the world. We are very close to having the video training done. Help us reach pastors with this awesome training all over the Philippines and the world. Share this with your own pastor and leaders and ask them to include us in your church’s mission budget. We have a world to win and it is up to all of us to rise up together and reach the lost!

Wow! What happened to Calli!

Free at last!

Many of you know me. You know that I have always been more of the quiet type. I preferred to let Tony do most of the talking, figuring that was his gift not mine. So for many years I have been busy behind the scenes, working in the office doing various tasks. I assisted in the development of the curriculum, editing it, compiling it into the booklets that we have published. Helping take care of the classes in the background, anything to lend a hand as long as I didn’t have to go out myself and speak to ‘strangers’ on the street. That was too SCARY! I was completely gripped by fear. Was it fear of man? Fear of failure? Fear of…whatever…who knows, I just knew it was fear. It was very evident in my life, because all you had to do was merely suggest that I go out to witness, and my knees would shake and my eyes would well up with tears! Then my only priority would become looking for and quickly locating the nearest exit in which to FLEE!

“I knew this would work… giving me the words to say”

For years I have felt the Lord asking me to take the training myself. I would witness transformation after transformation as people would come and learn to use Stealth Evangelism. I watched them become dynamic soul winners for the first time in their lives, and I could see the unfettered joy on their faces. As each class passed I would always manage to find something in the way, some ‘excuse’ to postpone it until the next session. As each chance slipped by I felt increasingly convicted by God, and at the same time more condemned by the enemy. I was also afraid of disrupting the class, perhaps hindering their progress with my presence. I would imagine the people thinking “Why has it taken so long for Tony’s wife to take the class?” All the while, I was aware of how much I needed this same transformation in my own life. I knew this technique would work the same way for me, as it had for so many others, giving me the words to say in the hour I needed to say them. I would be able to speak Jesus’ words to the people all around me, to every person He chose to bring across my path.

God is so good! He set up a class just for me! He brought a lady over from California to stay with us in our Mission Center, and while she was here she heard about Stealth Evangelism and wanted to take the class herself. Now, her stay with us fell in between our scheduled classes, so Pastor Steve Hill taught a special class just for the two of us. As we took the class together, I learned the presentation quickly. That didn’t come as a surprise, considering how much I had read and reread the curriculum over the years. I had it almost memorized but it still took going completely through the class, with all the workshops and practicums to really get it ‘firmly’ planted down in me. I had never been worried about the classroom part; it was the going out on the practicums that was giving me the problem!

“Lord, please exchange my timidity for Your boldness!”

When we left the mission center in the van, the pressure was on. The closer we got to the place where we were going to witness, the more quiet and subdued I became. I even began to cry, for the fear was quickly welling up within me. I kept praying, “Lord, please exchange my timidity for Your boldness!” “…grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word…” (Acts 4:29) Wow, did He ever come through! We approached the first lady we saw, who was tending a small outdoor eatery along the street. Although she was pleasant and receptive, I still thought my knees would give way at any minute. I resisted the urge to dive under one of her tables to hide and kept on track, leaning on the Stealth Evangelism dialogue I had learned in class. Soon, despite all my previous tension, she was praying with me and I welcomed my new sister into the family of God!

Once I got started, it didn’t even matter if they said no at first, the Lord was faithful and always gave me the words to say and many would change their minds and receive Him. It was so awesome to see the countenances on their faces change, going from hard, stern, sometimes fearful and wary, to such joy and peace. Not once did I ever feel personally rejected, the few that refused were not rejecting me, they were rejecting Jesus. Even though my heart ached for them, I would just pray for them and move on, knowing that His word will not return void. The seed had been planted and He is faithful to tend it as it grows in them. The refusals were only a very small minority, because as I stayed on track with the dialogue I had learned, most were eager to receive the Lord. I got kind of self-confident at one point and begun to veer off of the presentation, it wasn’t long before I found myself lost not knowing what to say next. The old fears threatened to return, but the Lord was faithful and got me back on track. Moments later I was praying with another new brother in the Lord!

The enemy has deceived us all for so long that we have begun to believe some of his lies without even realizing it. There are so many people out there that really desire to know our Lord (one of His names is the Desire of all nations), they are just waiting for you and me to come and tell them the Good News! Stealth Evangelism is the instrument you need in your life to give you the courage to reach out to those people around you that the enemy has convinced you that can’t be reached.

“Look..It’s a treasure chest on wheels!”

On a recent Sunday we were in the van on our way home. We passed by a jeepney full of passengers. The Lord quickened the verse in my heart Mt 6:20 “but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” He said, “Look, Calli! It’s a treasure chest on wheels!” I will never look at crowded buses and jeepneys the same way again. These people are God’s treasures and He wants us to be about gathering them up to bring them with us to heaven. As you walk out into the world today, begin to see the people around you as the precious jewels they are to our Father. At the end of this age, as we stand before the Lord, don’t come before Him empty handed. Bring Him the treasure He loves, precious souls robbed from hell!

In the three practicums we went out on during that class, I prayed the sinner’s prayer with over 90 people on the streets! It was amazing! It had nothing to do with my ability. My 55 years of life have proven that. It was only with God’s strength using this extremely sharp sickle called Stealth Evangelism, containing the very words of Jesus, that this harvest was brought in. I know the Lord has only just begun this work in me and I still have a lot to learn about reaching people every day on the streets, but I can certainly say, along with the many others that have come through the doors of Dunamis that, “My life will never be the same!”

OFW learns Stealth Evangelism

Returning to Saudi Arabia to teach others!

When I was informed by my Senior Pastor that I will be one of those chosen to attend the Stealth Evangelism seminar at Dunamis International School of mission, I asked myself what will that seminar be and will I learn anything that will be applicable to my job as an OFW? (Overseas Filipino Worker) But on the other hand, I was excited about going to Dunamis.

On our first day in the center, I felt happy and excited. I felt that something good was going to happen and that God had something in store for me here. The thought of evangelizing and reaching the lost made the fire burn inside me and I was very excited to learn Stealth Evangelism. It was indeed an honor to be one of the students of Dunamis International School of Mission because the training was very different, it enhanced my knowledge about witnessing, made my heart burn with passion for souls…and everything I learned here will be a very important tool when I go back to Saudi Arabia. The technique is simple yet effective and I know that after finishing this course, my self confidence has increased and with the help of God I will never be the same again.

I thank God for the servants of God, Ptr. Tony, Ptr. Steve, Ptra Sonia and Sis Dore, who unselfishly gave their time in nurturing us and encouraged us to be warriors in the kingdom of God. As a student of Dunamis, I will teach and share what I have learned to our church and other churches in Saudi Arabia. All honor and glory belongs to Him!

Clem L. Papa, Youth Leader of Jesus the Annointed One Church, Sta. Cruz, Laguna and OFW in Saudi Arabia

“Will help the growth of churches”

I am very thankful to God that I was able to join the team and attend the Stealth Evangelism seminar. I have been to so many evangelism seminars but I guess this is the best, short but effective and you can easily use the method in your daily life. Had I known this method before, we might already have an overflow of our church membership, Praise God! It was a blessing to me to be here in Dunamis. I will share this to my church and others so that they will also share the blessings that we had in this seminar and will help the growth of their churches. God bless Dunamis International School of Mission.

Batch 45—Crazy for Stealth Evangelism!
They won 1,398 people to the Lord during their training!

Guess you can tell it’s been rather exciting around here this month!

Tony is in need of some extensive dental work immediately. Although it’s a fraction of what it would be in the states, it’s going to run approximately $1,400. He’s been running around with a broken took for more than a month and this means not just extracting the tooth but replacing the old partials, they are shot! We also still need the 2003 Mitsubishi to be paid off. The story on the car is in the last newsletter. You can read it online at September 2011 Newsletter.

We thank you all for your continued prayers and support. God bless you with His abundance. We love you all.

In His love and service, Calli, Tony, and the Dunamis staff

If you’ve seen it, watch it again and focus on what God is doing here in the Philippines!

Help Us Secure a Permanent Presence

in the Philippines!

Join the Dunamis Founder’s Club

The Founder’s Club was created to secure the permanent presence of Dunamis International School of Missions in Manila, Philippines. The Dunamis Mission Center has a mortgage of $250,000 against it. We, the leadership of Dunamis, have been seeking the Lord for an answer for the debt so that the funds that we receive monthly from our partners can be better utilized in the reaching of the lost both in the Philippines and worldwide.

We have accomplished much in the 8 years we have been here in the Islands, but we need to do more. We are constantly asked to bring Stealth Evangelism to other parts of the Islands and other nations all over the world, holding seminars for pastors and leaders that cannot afford to travel to Manila. Our heart breaks as we are forced to tell them that we can’t come right now, but maybe some time in the future. I’m telling you, that TODAY is the Day of Salvation and we need to be going now to wherever there are pastors that will avail themselves to be trained and in turn, train their members in Stealth Evangelism. This will insure their churches will have perpetual soul winning and discipleship flowing through them for years to come.

These are perilous times in the world today with economies shaking and the uncertainty of what the future holds. But we can make sure that no matter what happens in the financial world that this ministry in the Philippines will prevail and extend to reach the lost in every nation that we are able to touch.

You have an opportunity to make a huge impact with your seed in a ministry that is reaching a huge number of souls every year. Please step forward and help us get this debt paid so we can move to the next level in reaching the world with the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. If this mission center was paid for we could do so much more every month to train pastors all over even in other nations. We have had many invitations from pastors and leaders from Benin, Nigeria, Brazil, France, England, Italy, India, Myanmar, Saudi, Dubai, Thailand, Columbia, Libya, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, all over the US. Just about everywhere they hear about Stealth Evangelism. Honestly I believe it will go all over the world when we get our new video completed. So please help us take this wonderful Kingdom building tool to the world.

You can be a part of continuing this work for years to come through your gift of $1,000 or more. Through the sacrificial giving of 250 Founders the mission center will be paid in full this year. Your pledge can be paid in one lump or monthly payments designated to “Founder’s Club”. This must be separate from your regular monthly giving. Please don’t discontinue your current monthly support, monthly overhead continues, Amen? Upon the paying off of the note and to honor the occasion and those that participated we will display the Founders names on a beautiful plaque here in the mission center in Manila. All gifts are tax deductible!

Please pray about becoming a part of the Dunamis Founder’s Club. Thank you so much for all your prayers and support. You can do it today by clicking on one of the Donate Now buttons and you can even set up a monthly payment plan on it. Make sure and designate founders club on your contribution.

Thank you, Tony & Calli
