ALL GLORY TO GOD! FOR IN MY WEAKNESS, GOD IN ME BECOMES STRONG!

Bishop Tony Poole, with students of Dunamis International Ministry of Evangelism, sharing an inspiring story of his profound saving faith

Ephesians 2:8-10 ⁸ For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— ⁹ not by works, so that no one can boast. ¹⁰ For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

ALL GLORY TO GOD! FOR IN MY WEAKNESS, GOD IN ME BECOMES STRONG

“I get a piece of every reaper’s harvest and you can too!” These are the words of Bishop Tony Poole as he shared the good news about Dunamis. Its apostolic ministry is training Bishops, Evangelists, Missionaries, Pastors and church leaders in using a simple yet effective soul-winning technique, that when flawlessly executed, can eventually win hundreds of thousands to millions of souls for the Kingdom of God.

Bishop Tony Poole gave a prophetic message that God will do mighty things in Pampanga and bring multitudes of souls to salvation. After hearing this astounding word, Bishop Danilo Amurao of Pampanga was just one of the many faithful servants of God to respond to this urgent call. “For the field is already white for harvest but the laborers are few”. This is why Bishop Danilo, after graduating from the Dunamis Stealth Evangelism class, immediately organized his church to train his first group of ten reapers and created a reapers club. Thereafter, he ordered thirty more pocket-sized soul-winning Bibles. So, he could also train three more batches of soul-winners in other churches that he had planted in Pampanga. During their respective practicums, his first batch won 472 souls, the second batch won 368 souls and the third batch won 356 souls. He has already scheduled a fourth batch for this week.

THANK YOU REMY: 11 YEARS OF DEDICATION AND SERVICE

Our class from August 6 to 9, 2024 included Pampanga’s Bishop Danilo Amurao together with his wife and friend as well as pastors and youth leaders from Cavite. Pastora Anna was the topnotcher for this class. All the harvesters were able to win many souls during the practicums. They also made new friends and enjoyed their stay during the 3 days at the mission center. The students were very grateful to Bishop Tony, his family and all the staff for the wonderful experience they had with us.

This was Pastora Remy Mordeno’s last batch to train. After more than 11 years of remarkable service to our apostolic ministry of training hundreds of evangelists and soul-winners, Remy decided to make an indefinite visit to the US. We are very grateful for her contributions in making the ministry reach its current heights, especially during our mobile trainings where we made trips to different cities, provinces and islands all over the Philippines.

GOD KNOWS YOUR NEEDS: SHOES!

Ephesians 6:15 ¹⁵ and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 

God knew what a couple of the participants needed. Just days before joining the class, Bishop Danilo Amurao received a gift of a new pair of shoes. He was very proud to be able to use them during the class and especially when he was graduating from Dunamis Stealth Evangelism. In addition, one of the youth leaders John Wynne received a much needed surprise during the class. He had experienced challenges while doing the practicums, because his old shoes got damaged while walking in the heat. The soles were literally following off his shoes. Mark was able to see it personally and told him that the Lord will reward him for doing the work of God. Soon after, he was all smiles and very happy when he received a gift of a pair of shoes from Bishop Tony.

Mark Christian Lagarile

GOD’S ANSWER TO HIS WORD: CHANGING OF THE GUARD

During the August training, Brother Mark Christian Lagarile was able to come back for a refresher class. He had originally taken the Dunamis Stealth Evangelism class back in November 2013. He had also volunteered as a monitor for a mobile training in Pasay City in April 2021. After Remy’s retirement, he volunteered to be part of our staff to help the ministry achieve its goals of fulfilling its mission and vision.  After just a few days, we could see he was God’s perfect fit to be brought on as fulltime staff. God had given us a word back in 2023, that He was bringing someone who could help us with launching the technology of the ministry into the future.
 
Brother Mark is poised to take Dunamis International into its next phase of reaching the nations with its innovative and powerful tools of evangelism, equipping God’s armies all over the world with these spiritual weapons of warfare to build the kingdom of God. He has started organizing our office and checking our inventory of equipment and materials including the database of our alumni students. He has also checked and provided suggestions to improve our website, social media accounts and some materials used in the training. He was also able to initiate new technology integration with our ministry, including the use of professionally-designed promotional posters, use of online registration forms after scanning QR codes, use of Google forms for registration, online interactive tests and use of GPS technology for outdoor practicums. He also initiated improvements in the training room facilities.  We added a smart tv, sound system with microphone and speakers, and rearranged the cabinets of files and books. He was also knowledgeable in operating our laptops and DSLR cameras, so we are able to make PowerPoint presentations, and have great photo and video coverage of our training. We were also able to set up our digital banking, Paypal, digital wallet to make it easier to receive payments and donations by just scanning QR codes.
 
Brother Mark was a freelance journalist for more than 15 years and his articles were published in major newspapers in the country. He also worked for 7 years as a technical support and customer service associate handling big tech international accounts. In addition, he is a website developer and a member of Toastmasters International. He was an undergraduate of journalism and information technology.

CLEAR GLIMPSES OF JESUS WITH KRYSTEL It is hard to fathom from a natural standpoint to be joyful about a trial in your life. However, when it comes to God, you should be excited. Because, when you experience a trial, just understand that your faith is being tested to see if you are ready for something BIG to happen in your life. God wants to know are you ready, can you handle what He wants to give to you?  If you feel doubts, change those feelings. Pray and seek God, He will give you the wisdom, patience, and peace you need to get through. Get ready to have your life and mind BLOWN!!! James 1:2-8 (Amplified) “Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace].  And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing. If any of you lacks wisdom [to guide him through a decision or circumstance], he is to ask of [our benevolent] God, who gives to everyone generously and without rebuke or blame, and it will be given to him. But he must ask [for wisdom] in faith, without doubting [God’s willingness to help], for the one who doubts is like a billowing surge of the sea that is blown about and tossed by the wind. For such a person ought not to think or expect that he will receive anything [at all] from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable and restless in all his ways [in everything he thinks, feels, or decides].”

John 4:36 And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. We are forever grateful to our dearest partners in this apostolic ministry for your unwavering and continuous support to inspire change and enable us to activate more soul-winners to reach more lost souls. You are the catalyst and fuel that God is using to rekindle the passion of soul winning in the hearts of our brothers and sisters in the Philippines. Thank you for sowing seeds into our ministry. Matthew 6:4 that your giving may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly.
