Between 28 march & 1 April about 20 to 30 students from UCT & CPUT went into Groote Schuur to do a mission.
The aim was to bring God’s love & healing to people in need. The gospel was shared to many and we believe seeds were sown in people’s hearts – 2 people gave their lives to Christ on the first night. Some of the testimonies include a person who had been in hospital for days was prayed for and got discharged the next day, we believe it was as a result of the students that prayed for him. There was a big change in the atmosphere in the hospital with many patients feeling loved and encouraged & experiencing joy in their circumstance.
One of the testimonies:
| “While we were walking in the passage called Hospital Street, I saw a patient walking slowly..we decided to talk to him. He was very lonely, no one had come to visit him. His name is Donavan, from Mannenburg. He is at the hospital for surgery as he has some liver problems. |  |
“He was struggling to walk as a result. Sno, a student who was with me, asked him if she could pray for him..after praying, he got teary and then said the pain was gone.
He walked without any pain to his ward, he was in tears the whole time. He said to us, 'I've heard about Jesus, but I don't know him..I want to know Jesus'. Since, he got sick, he had been crying out to God. We are going to visit him tomorrow to give him a Bible and go thru One2One. Tomorrow is a big day for Donavan, he is going for X-rays and then possibly have to go for surgery on Thurs. We are trusting for complete healing. His heart is to go to Mannenburg and tell his family and community about what Jesus had done for him.”
