- I praise God for what He has done for me through this conference. During the conference I was able to forgive somebody with whom I had a conflict many years ago. This has been a big issue in my life since then! Now I feel released; I am feeling a strong peace in my heart. Also I now totally understand why it is very important to confess sins that I committed when I was in witchcraft and ancestor worship ceremonies, and I have repented. Lastly I learnt how to pray with others, and I am totally changed. (W12RW1)
- My younger brother participated in my father’s assassination. He actually killed him by beating him. As you can imagine this has been too hard for me to understand how it could happen or forgive him. In addition, a few years ago my wife abandoned me, she left me alone in my home. Even though I am a Christian and involved in the ministry I was feeling hatred towards them (my brother and my wife) but now God has used this conference to deliver me! Through the prayer times that we have had, I forgave them, I feel joy in my heart. Thanks. (W12RW2)
- I lost many people during the genocide, and my heart was deeply wounded. I was living a kind of lonely life every single day since 1994; and because of that I hated those who had parents, because I hadn’t had that chance. But I praise God through the conference I feel a new family, I feel a strong love from the heavenly Father. This conference helped me to feel a new belonging to the family of God. (W12RW3)
- I had a problem with my brother, because my brother stole from us. We used to have cows and when we came back from being refugees in Uganda in 1994, my brother had taken all the cows and sold them. Since then the unforgiveness had become a barrier and I have never ever been to see him in these past18 years. But since this workshop, when I was able to forgive him, I have decided that when I go back to my village I am going to visit my brother. Hallelujah! (W12RW11)
- I came here with 2 hurts. In 2009 thieves came and stole all my cows. Now I have been able to forgive them. Also, I had been wounded by the ministers I am serving with in the church. Yes, I was doing ministry with these people, but hiding that I had a problem with them. But when I went through this healing workshop on forgiveness it really helped me, and I feel like I want to follow through on the steps I have learned. The problem that was between the ministers had reached such a level, that I had decided I would stop some of the ministry that I was doing in the church. I see now that the problem became an entry point for the devil. Since then, all the gifts that I used to minister in, stopped. I praise God for the people who prayed for me. Now I have been delivered and Jesus touched me in a new way yesterday. And I opened myself up to Him in a new way. I praise God because I am healed and I am going to do something new in my church. I am an assistant pastor. For some time I have been doing ministry for the sake of doing ministry, but now I am convinced that I am leaving this place with a new anointing and a new commitment to Him. God bless you. (W12RW13)
- This prayer conference has been so meaningful to me, specifically the teachings about seeking for forgiveness, and freedom: Actually there were so many people who had offended me greatly but after these teachings of forgiveness and freedom I felt a lot of compassion and forgiveness in me. God has opened my heart to understand the power of forgiving those who trespassed against me! This is the most wonderful life changing experience I have ever had in my life. I am now committed to start to pray for those people and bless even my enemies. THANKS. (RW12S10)
- I had a stomach problem and when I came here I was physically sick. But when you prayed for us, immediately I got healed. (RW12S1)
- Through the talk of forgiveness God has done something great. I had a serious problem as I used to hate some people and that hatred was eating away inside of me. So when you were talking about how someone can see an inner picture of someone, or a memory, and feel anger, I realized God was touching me, because I saw my relatives, my family. Because of something bad they did to me in the past I could feel anger in me. It was a strong pain, even though I was a “good testimony” in my church. When you were praying for us I felt like something new was happening in my heart. Since then, for the last 2 days, I have been feeling that when I go back I want to go and see them and hug them and say ‘I love you’ – because something happened in my heart. Minister (RW12S5)
- Before I came to this conference I had strong pain and anger caused by fellow Christians from my church who had offended me, but Jesus has delivered me from the power of anger, my heart is ready to give them forgiveness and I am sure that after the conference, they are going to become my friends. (RW12S11)
- This is the most wonderful conference I ever attended, mostly because of experiencing the power of being still and listening in prayer. I actually grew up in a church where during every prayer time we shout and shout, so it was very hard for us to hear God speaking to our heart. I praise God for what I learnt here. I was given a weapon of the spirit because I knew how to fight in the spiritual warfare and to be free from the demonic power. (RW12S12)
- When I came here I had a wound that was caused by my marriage partner. I had felt like there were no good men at all, but now I feel released and I also forgave him although he is no longer alive. When I came I was sick, my stomach was very painful, but I was healed through prayer! Before I couldn’t put pepper in my food but now I have tried and I didn’t feel any pain. Praise God for that. (RW12S13)
- I praise God for what happened here. I experienced very strong deliverance. I thank God because I expect something very good is going to happen to me. I had a problem with some people, but when I forgave them I felt really released and I was healed. (RW12S2)

- A03BA5 My back went out of alignment last week...and was hurting me so much, and because of your teaching, I decided to seek God on healing. He told me to ask my small group to pray...they did, and nothing happened right away. But when I woke up the next morning I had NO PAIN! and for the next two days my back kept popping and snapping! I have been pain free for a whole week! Praise God! Thank you for your encouragement! Jamie (YWAM)
