Testimonies from events, retreats & prayer groups

 Hi, my name is Liko. I joined the OH family in April 2020 and it has been an amazing journey since. When I got saved late 201, I prayed for friends that fear God, He answered my prayers when he introduced me to OH. During COVID, we had online bible study and prayers. They helped me grow spiritually in seeking God and allowed me to learn more about having a relationship with God and what it means to be a Christian. I had so many questions about most things, but the discussions helped me get a solid understanding of them. The zoom calls were nice, but meeting everyone in person at the OH barbecue and evangelism was way better. Everyone was so welcoming and allowed me be myself. Being part of the OH family has showed me that you can be Christian and still have fun. In the past I used to believe having fun was getting drunk and having 1 night stands. However, I would wake up the next day still missing something and with a hangover. Now every time after worshiping together and sharing how good God is, I wake up feeling like I have a Holy Spirit hangover, which is more filling than anything else in this world. The OH family has also inspired me to be a good man and has helped me unlearn certain things I learned about from being a man in this world. Having a Godly family that is always there to lift you up whenever you are feeling down and just talk to you. Every person needs that and the OH family is that. Everyone is always there to help you with whatever it is you are going through; whether cash or kind, spiritual or physical, or maybe just a chat.I am grateful to be part of this family. 01/10/2020

 When I first joined OH I came as a broken person. I was on my last life line, nevertheless, January was a new start for me. Sometimes I am still in awe of how good God has been. Even though covid-19 intruded upon us; during this season and time that I have spent with my OH family, my journey with Christ has excelled. The Bible study sessions that we have been having, has allowed me to learn more about the Holy Spirit, it has been my favourite topic. My prayer life has shifted greatly as I began to rediscover who Jesus Christ is. I have been able to go out to evangelise and speak to the community about who Jesus is; my participation in leading sessions as well as organising them in OH is a great testimony. Having events such as the OH BBQ made realise that you can still have such beautiful fellowship and be around good company and have fun as a young Christian. I have always said one thing; when you are truly in the body of Christ and are in His presence, you never leave the same. In OH, the presence of God is so evident every time we study the word; we fellowship, we pray, my heart is always stirred, I’m always left wanting to pursue God more .  I’m so grateful to be in such a beautiful Christian family where Christ truly resides and his presence is so clear. I am so excited to grow more and learn more about Jesus Christ - 05/10/2020

  "Since joining Operation Heaven I have gained confidence in myself and my calling and have become more passionate about serving others. I have also gained a wonderful family of brothers and sisters in Christ that are there for me to encourage, uplift and grow with me. I am thankful for the mentoring and leadership within the ministry along with the prayers, Bible studies, events, and discussions. I look forward to the future events and seeing how God transforms the lives of others as the movement grows. It is a true blessing to serve the Lord with likeminded Christians from different walks of life, all with the same goal in mind: to win souls for Jesus!" - OH Intercessors 21/04/2020

"We are so proud of you guys today for demonstrating your resilience and sincere love for lost souls in our communities. I was watching every move and everyone was spot on, fit and sold out of the purpose. I tell you that heaven must be very proud of you guys today." - Erdington Outreach 29/02/2020

" It is not by chance that I came to the retreat, it was Gods plan. I want to thank God for changing my mind, for allowing me to focus on the purpose He has for me. I thank Him for transforming my life, He removed the weight that was in my heart after a life changing event." - Recharge Retreat 19/01/2020

"I am grateful I came. Meeting and worshipping with people from different, same but different walks of life, different churches, Zimbabwe, Malawian, etc. is really nice and sometimes as Christians we tend to segregate ourselves in our churches. So I think this has been really nice and refreshing to worship and see how other people worship. And it is really good to learn from others and implement those things in your own church. We are here in Operation Heaven as Soldiers, so the things we have learnt here, we can go and implement them in the world." - Recharge Retreat 18/01/2020 

"I have grown so much since the  retreat in January. Since last month (March), I help co-ordinate prayer sessions and notes (so you could say I am one with my team-member Tuse, behind the scenes with reminders and announcements and all that good stuff). I never thought I had the confidence to do this but I am growing my confidence everyday." OH Intercessors - 18/04/2020
