Evangelizing in Lelystad from 18.00 29-04-2008 to 15.00 30-04-2008
At long last we have been able to promote the Books by Rev. Paul C. Jong in our home town, Lelystad.
We believe that with prayer and our Lord’s timing many have received a wonderful blessing.
We would like to thank our co-workers who took part in the designing and printing of the banners which we used in our evangelizing of the Gospel of the Water and Spirit. These banners attracted so many people, you received many complements for the outlay, colors and quality. Thanks’ you guys, blessings from Lelystad. We hope you enjoy the photo’s.
To all our Brothers and Sisters at the N. L. M. in South Korea, a special thank you. Your dedication, hard work, and your prayers have helped us here to reach many lost souls. Rev. Paul, I only wish you could have been here to see the hunger of the people who accepted your books. Thank you for trusting us and allowing us to be a part of this wonderful Ministry.
At 18.00 on Tuesday 29 April we started to construct our stall, by 19.00 everything was in place. Our intention was to start evangelizing on Wednesday, but our Lord had other plans. Almost immediately the people started to show an interest in what we were doing, before midnight we had shared the Gospel with many and given away 25 Books.
From 00.30 Wednesday morning were visited by many people who had too much to drink, they only came to disrupt what we were doing, but here also our Lord had other plans. There were people next to us from the biggest church in Lelystad who tried to be helpful in sending the drunken people away, the way they handled the situation only made things go badly for them. From this time on until 06.30 we had so many drunken people come by us with all the wrong intentions, it got a bit scary from time to time, but I knew the Lord was with us.
The people who meant to do evil against us, God turned it around for the good. Everyone who came for the wrong reason, left our stall with a handshake, a book and a blessing. The Hand of our Lord was seen at work by the people who were next to us, they also left with a book and a blessing. All the Honor and Glory goes to God, Hallelujah.
Things started to pick up again from 07.15 and by 10.00 everything was in full swing. Many Christians came by claiming to be born again, and tried to convince us that the Gospel of the Water and Spirit was all wrong. Most of them refused the truth behind the Baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist, they would not accept a book from us, they only left with a question. Why have we never known about the 12 sins in our heart? They have also been blessed because they will seek out this truth and ask many questions. Here we let Our Lord do His work.
Many people came just out of curiosity and left in laughter, but they have seen and heard.
From 12.00 until 15.00 was our busiest time, we went out among the people and gave them an invitation to visit us at the stall. This is when God poured out his greatest blessing. The people were queuing up for the books. What we noticed was the personal touch From Sister Ritha and Sister Jenny was more readily accepted by the people, This is when the people started queuing up for the books. We can see the hand of our Lord at work here. Our 21 Hours of evangelizing was taken care of by three of us. This is only more proof for us all. When we are doing God’s work, God is with us and He is also helping us to spread His Gospel. So few of us can achieve so much.
We received an order for 1 Box of Russian No1 and for 1 Box of Russian Mixed series which will be distributed in a prison in Russia. We were also asked for our Books in many languages. Portuguese. Chinese, Russian, Polish, Japanese, Arabic, Tagalog and more. Here we can see that God was sending his people to His Storehouse to quench their thirst and hunger, just like in Joseph’s time in Egypt.
In total we were able to hand out 165 Books, and almost 1,000 cards were accepted. This is What we were able to distribute.
Dutch series #1 x 109, English Series #1 x 20, Spanish series #1 x 10, Arabic series #1 x 1, Indonesian series #1 x 6, French Series #1 x 17, German series #1 x 2.
We also had with us 2 Boxes of mixed Books( + - 50 ) from the above languages, these were also distributed, but not noted. These were given out at the time of the queue at the Table so in all fairness they have not been added to our total.
A wonderful time was had by all. Not only have the book recipients received a blessing, us also. We have been blessed with the knowledge of knowing that, when we Do the Lord’s work, He has everything under control.
All praise goes to our Lord. Amen.
Pastor Jim Montgomerie, Sister Jenny and Sister Ritha, Netherlands

"All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:18-20). In accordance to this Great Commission of our Lord, the coworkers of The New Life Mission throughout the whole world are working tirelessly to spread the gospel of the water and the Spirit in each of their countries. As new coworkers of The New Life Mission will continue to arise in the future, and the gospel of the water and the Spirit will indeed be preached to the ends of the earth.
We at The New Life Mission want to rejoice together with you by sharing the news that these faithful servants of God have brought to us from their respective mission fields while preaching the gospel. We also hope that those who have registered with us as our coworkers but have not yet participated in our ministry of book distribution would receive faith and courage from reading these letters and take part in the ministry of preaching the gospel. This news will be continuously updated, and it will be very helpful for the nourishment and growth of your faith.
