God At Work

This is from a letter that Karen Hubert Sanchez of Team 2000 just recently sent out.

This just happened. For the last few weeks, P' Ganiga, one of our newer believers, has been sharing her burden for her boss, P' Laan. P' Ganiga was able to walk with her boss as she discovered she had breast cancer, and went to Bangkok with her to visit the doctor there. P' Ganiga was burdened for P' Laan because she did not want to obey the doctor and have her breast removed.

Carmen got a group of us from TLC together and we went to share Christ with P' Laan and pray for her. During this time, it just so happened that Dan and Agnes Ratzlaff from Abbotsford were here scouting out some land for our church. A few years earlier, Agnes had experienced God's grace while fighting kidney cancer, and she was happy for the chance to share her story with P' Laan. We went last Monday afternoon and Agnes shared some scriptures and her story and then we prayed and laid hands on P' Laan. Her surgery was scheduled for Friday.

On Friday, P' Laan went to Bangkok for her surgery, and the doctor examined her before the surgery. He told her to go home. She was cancer free!!! Amazed, P' Laan admitted to P' Ganiga that she too had prayed that Monday after she received prayer. She prayed her very first prayer and silently told God that if He would heal her, she would go to church every Sunday.

Yesterday, P' Laan came to church for the first time ever, keeping her promise to God. She loved it all...the worship and the preaching and the fellowship.

Pray for P' Laan to meet the God that healed her and to grow in her new faith.

Wow, eh? This is the kind of stuff I hear about around here! I know that I'm "way over there in Thailand" and it may not sound as exciting because the news is second hand and you don't know the people. But P'Laan was at our church this Sunday. This is a real person who HAD real cancer, and was really healed! Really. I mean you don't just schedule a surgery in Bankok unless it is serious. Can you imagine having the doctor say to you "Why are you here? There's nothing wrong with you."!!?? Wow. Anyway, I share this with you to increase your faith, and to encourage you that prayer DOES work. God is listening and he answers prayer. Really.
