Rev Tony ministering with Pastor Domingo Gabriel at GKMCC

Over a hundred people crowd the front of the church, coming forward to receive the Lord.

Pastor Gabriel is bringing a group of 24 of his pastors on June 22-25 to attend the Stealth Evangelism Program. We are looking forward to seeing God move mightily through this group.

Rev. Tony & Calli speaking during the pastor’s meeting the following day.

We Invite You to Come to Manila!

Spend a week that will change your life for an eternity! Come take the Stealth Evangelism Program at Dunamis International School of Missions. You can stay at our beautiful facility while you are in Manila. You can also take in some of the local sights. You will go out on evangelism exercises in the community that will really build your soul winning confidence. The class is 3 days and power packed. Our goal is to equip you with the tools to make soul winning a way of life, and train you to teach others to do the same. We want to start fires of evangelism all over the US.

We have spent several months now sharing with you how the Stealth Evangelism Program has changed lives here in the Philippines. Now it’s your turn! Have you always wanted to win souls but…..something’s always is in your way? Not enough time. Don’t know what to say. Fear- fear- and more fear. That’s right fear of rejection is the number one reason people don’t witness. And much of that fear comes from not knowing what to say.

Stealth Evangelism teaches you a very simple way to share the Gospel that is easy to learn and implement. By going out on evangelism exercises here, where there are literally 10’s of thousands of people to witness to, it helps insure that you will master the technique and be able to witness very effectively from now on, with no stress, where ever you are.

Learning to make soul winning a way of life!

Even I know myself the frustration of not knowing what to say. It prevents most us from sharing the Gospel in our everyday lifes. We all have people around us that we have wanted to share Christ with but have not known what to say. After being equipped with our “357 Magnum” a technique built around the scriptures John 3:3,5&7 you can easily win people to the Lord that you have wanted to share Christ with for years.

Come receive Stealth Evangelism training here at Dunamis!

This method only takes about 3 minutes with someone you know, and about 5 to 7 minutes with a total stranger. Good news is, you will rarely miss winning them to the Lord and it also stays under their radar so to speak and does not cause stress in your relationship with them. Hardly anyone will be stressed by you sharing it with them. It’s really beautiful the way it keeps you from hurting your relationship. They won’t feel threatened at all and will generally appreciate your caring enough to share with them.

Did you know that the only difference between a sower and a reaper is the sickle? If you have always thought of yourself as a sower, but not a reaper, we encourage you to come and put this tool to work in your life.

We estimate the cost of a one week trip to be approximately $2500, including airfare, accommodations, food, transportation, class materials and some spending money. The airfare is based on $1500 round trip from Amarillo, but that can vary a lot. And if you come with family or friends and can share a room the cost per person can go down too. Contact us at 1-817-928-3277 and we can help you with the details.

Pastors! Ready to See Your Church Grow?

Have you had a hard time making your church grow? One of the hardest things in ministry is to make a church grow. But Jesus said, “My yoke is easy, and My burden is light”(Mt 11:30) and “Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” (Mt 11:28) Jesus didn’t ask for us to build Him churches. If you go out and win the lost and disciple them, church growth is just a bi-product. It comes naturally. The great commission is to go and make disciples. (Mt 28:19)

Conventional methods of building churches have been to develop programs for all areas of ministry to the body. Sometimes this may work and your church grows through word of mouth primarily attracting other Christians. You might grow in numbers but God wants to expand His Kingdom, so this is not doing much to increase the Kingdom that way.

Pastor’s Story with a Message of Hope!

I talk to pastors all the time that have had 100 or less people in their church for years. Their congregations have not been winning people to the Lord and they have stayed in the same size range year after year. Many have become very discouraged and do not know what to do, or how to break out of this trend. I’m reminded of a pastor right now that we had picked up to guide us to his church to preach one Sunday morning in Marikina here in Manila. As we drove I asked him how big his church was and he said, “about 70 members.” I then asked if they were winning any souls to the Lord and he said there had been no souls saved since he had been there in the last 7 years. He went on to say that the church had not grown in 20 years. I could hear the hurt and discouragement in his voice. To make a long story short we came back a few weeks later and had a seminar for several churches in the area at his church. The only member that came to the seminar from his own church was a new Christian that been saved during our meeting that Sunday. After the seminar she won over 90 people to the Lord. The following week, if you can picture this, most of them came that next Sunday and his church was so full it was standing room only! He had to start having multiple services immediately.

His story is not unusual, but the norm around here. We experience this every month seeing pastors go home with a new hope in the Lord, a new chapter unfolding in their lives. They take back to their church this powerful training that will put the sickle of God in the hands of their members and the fire of evangelism igniting their hearts!

Thank you, dear partners! Your monthly support enables us to give these seminars at no cost to the pastors here. We do have one thing that needs to be taken care of soon. We need about $1,900 for a generator. The mission center is already wired for it. Brown outs here are a way of life sometimes, we just need enough electricity to maintain the necessities, like food preservation etc. Just letting you know of the need, God bless!

Christ’s love to you all,

Tony, Calli, and the Dunamis Team!
