People of Latin America are eagerly waiting with intense interest, excitement and high expectations for Pastor Evelyn Joshua Crusade of Synagogue Church Of All Nations SCOAN scheduled to be held on the 11th and 12th of this month at the city of Resistencia in Chaco province of Argentina.
The Argentines are particularly delighted to host the crusade. The palpability of this could be seen in the fire of their enthusiasm to lend a supporting hand in every way possible for the success of the event.
From the neighbouring countries of Chile, Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Dominican, Peru, Granada and Uruguay for instance, people are daily besieging the emergency centre at CENTRO CRISTIANO DE AVIVAMIENTO in droves for registration just as large numbers of others from the 48 nations within the Argentine Republic are not left behind in the race for salvation and deliverance.
Alejandro Paz, a teacher, Culture expert and environmentalist, looking at the throng of large predominantly white people at the centre said: “I am not surprised to see the massive response to the Crusade because many have now come to realize the spiritual angles to many human problems”. Besides, he added, “The ministry of TBJOSHUA can not be joked with here because we all knew the late man of God whose positive impacts in the world and among many of our people as a true man of God remain indelible and we have also seen the continued grace from God radiating from Pastor Evelyn Joshua the now SCOAN leader”.
To Dr. Ceser Joepuin Prieto, a consultant Ganeacologist, “The Argentine Republic is now in the process of restoration. Our President wants to please God and do away with everything that’s antithetical and offensive to God. We Argentines are all set in this regard for a better future of our country and so you can see the congeniality of this crusade for the betterment of our country at this moment”.
It is obviously a time of good harvest for the hospitality industry in Argentina.
Our findings show the spring of a better business era for the hotels that are now being overbooked. Some of the hotels are Howard Johnson, Amerian Casino Gala, Atrium, Diamante, Gran, Marconi, Amudoch Colon, Victorios, Angeluz, Alvear, Boutique Del Pomar, Huerto Ciudad de Fontana, Estancia San Alfonso and Quinta El Descanso among others are all having a high time of guests upsurge as a result of the Crusade.
Mr. Raul Marquez from Mexico is left behind speaking on behalf of Mexicans: “We have high expectations coming for this crusade. People are hungry to receive anointing from Mommy Evelyn Joshua. Only the demented or satanic agents would not see the glory of God in the TBJOSHUA Ministry and the enduring God’s grace in Mommy Evelyn Joshua “.
Santiango Gobel Flugnen from Brazil: “You haven’t seen anything yet from the large numbers of people who I know are coming from Brazil. TBJOSHUA Ministry we all know and cherish; and with the grace we have continued to witness in Evelyn Joshua remains a reference point in true Christendom and God’s love for mankind to be closer and serve in spirit and truth. We in Brazil are praying to have this crusade in our country because we know it’s a blessing “.
Though more of Catholicism than Pentecostal genre, residents of Chaco are all united to be part of the Crusade.
Dlfredo Luiz Alcaraz of Mensajero De Sion speaking on behalf of the Christian community in Argentina:
“We the Argentines have been longing to have this crusade ever before the passing of TBJOSHUA. We thank God to have it now because this is God’s time for our land. We are grateful to God for the blessings and turnaround that would happen in the lives of Argentines by this crusade”.
Pastor Robert Acosta is a prominent Christian leader in Argentina.
“I believe in God’s agenda and in His time everything is perfect. The man of God before his passing had spoken of this crusade in Argentina. We have been seeing miracles and healing breakthroughs; the Holy Spirit and the crusade have not started yet. It’s like you are smelling the wet ground because the big rain is coming”. Pastor Acosta described TB Joshua in his encounter as an inspiration, model of love, wise counsellor and mentor, pastor and father who God used to lead him right in many decisions and the grace of God upon his life through his guidance. He is in high spirits about what God is going to do during the crusade and the blessings that will follow the crusade. He specifically emphasized, “spiritual open doors by the Holy Spirit that God would use Pastor Evelyn TBJOSHUA to accomplish and leave behind in the land of Argentina”.
Maria Sol, a public servant and secretary to a government minister: “We are all excited in Argentina for the crusade. The government will ensure adequate security for the people during a two-day event”.
To hold a crusade by SCOAN in a faraway country at this time is not an easy task, especially for a Ministry such as SCOAN which doesn’t collect any offerings or money for any support in any country where it’s holding a crusade. Rather SCOAN would go there to bless the land with landmark charity programs across the frontiers of challenges facing the people. No group of any kind in such a place is ever allowed to raise funds for any kind of support for the crusade. This has been the foundational principle of SCOAN which Pastor Evelyn Joshua would never compromise. She doesn’t want evangelism to be used as a cover of any kind for materialism or personal advantage
“if we are following the steps of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ; and the uncompromising stand of his servant TBJOSHUA, the extension of the grace we are under,” said Evelyn Joshua.
Speaking further on the crusade, Pastor Evelyn Joshua described the crusade train to Argentina as “a journey of love”
“It’s God’s command for this crusade to hold in Argentina and we have to move in God’s love and pleasure. It’s beyond our control because it’s a God’s project”.
PORTAL DEL CIELO (Door of the heaven) as the name implies in English, the place for the crusade at Resistencia is said to be the largest place of people’s gathering in the entire Latin America.
