Kingdom Global Ministries World Connect Conference In Dallas! | ||||
The Kingdom Global Team blessed us with a trip to the US to attend their KGM Conference that they have every 2 years for world leaders in God’s ministries! Larry and Devi Titus were the hosts of this awesome event! Some of the guest speakers were: our former Pastor Jimmy Evans -Marriage Today, Dennis and Ginger Lindsey – Christ for the Nations, Valson Abraham – India Gospel Outreach, Milton Souza – First Baptist of Brazil, Ray Wilkerson – Maoz-Israel Ministries, and many others. | ||||
This conference was very special in that we got to attend so many sessions with Pastor Larry and Devi sowing seeds of wisdom from their 50 plus years of ministry that God has used them mightily in pastoring and apostolic leadership across the world! We were blessed with the whole conference getting to see our international friends in ministry again. | ||||
This year was such a hard year and we needed some hugs and got them in abundance for the whole trip. Calli and I flew into DFW in advance of the conference on August 16th and our daughter Krystel arrived two days later. (Thanks to all who surprised her with crosses. She couldn’t believe everyone was giving them to her. She loves them all, and the memories that go with each of them!) | ||||

We set out to visit family and friends in Dallas / Ft. Worth area, Amarillo, Hereford, Lubbock, Sinton, Houston, Canton, and Murchison,TX, and Shreveport, LA. Ended up back in Dallas for the Connect Conference on Aug. 29th. Man we were flying on the Hi-way every day. We only saw a fraction of who we wanted to see because of time restraints. We also spent some precious days with our daughter Kari Brown and her husband Pastor David Brown in Amarillo. We also got to see Karisa our granddaughter. The last part of our trip was spent with my son Cory and his wife Jennifer and 7 of our 9 grandchildren with them. PaPa and Grams got a lot of hugs there! We got lots of hugs everywhere!
Of course the tears flowed for Felicity everywhere we went. People gave so much honor to her precious memory the whole trip. We missed getting to see so many, but we will try to come back soon and see the rest of you that we love so dearly. God Bless you all with His abundance and grace, PS- PaPa got to go fishing twice, Yeah!! |

Class out witnessing on the mountaintop of Mangkayan, Benguet.
|
||||
Mobile Seminar on the mountaintop place of Mangkayan, Benguet, Luzon Island! | ||||
Our 12 hour land trip in the midst of rainy weather resulted in an abundant harvest of souls as the Stealth Evangelism Training Seminar was held on a mountaintop place of Mangkayan, Benguet. The 34 pastors and 10 leaders won 1,373 souls and made 1001 presentations.
Mangkayan is a district in Benguet under the region of CAR or Cordillera Administrative Region where mining is a major industry and is situated within the Cordillera Mountains. Basically Benguet is dominantly mountainous and it has the highest mountain in Luzon. It also has the most populous province in the region. Roman Catholicism is the predominant religion with 73% adherence while Aglipayan (a local form of Catholicism) is an important minority. Pastor Hidalgo, the host organizer of the batch has been trying to set up this training for more than a year. And all the efforts proved to be all worth it. |
||||

Pastora Emmie Layug, a missionary pastor was amazed to find 357 magnum so simple and easy as learning the ABC’s. Coming from Manila to join this training, and doing the practicum in a place that is bereft of her usual dialect, she became the top soul winner for the batch and she attributes it to the tool being easily understood by the lost and stirs their soul to be born again just as the Lord Jesus commands.
Pastor Joel Marquez, who joined us as monitor, who was a graduate of Dunamis in 2011, discovered the tool has evolved to a very significant powerful level and has become simpler, easier to execute and is so potent that a prospective recipient of the gospel will be too weak to refuse. Joel said, “During the 3 day training, I still awe how God changes the pastors and leaders, and how he moved with a rekindling of their hearts while using the 357 Magnum tool which had evolved to such a state of flawlessness even since 2011 when I took it.” |

Batch 127 Mangkayan, Benguet
|
||||
The Pastors and leaders were teary eyed and were feeling victorious as they received their certificates in Stealth Evangelism Training. They echo the same statement…’Now, we can share again…and again….with no sweat at all and with no rejections from the fanatic Catholics that dominate the province of Benguet. It’s important for the body of Christ to realize that when people are born again their lives will never be the same whether they become Protestants or remain Catholic. In Heaven there will be no denominations. The issue is whether they know Jesus as their Lord and Savior!
Glory to God forever and ever Note from Pastor Tony: I did not attend this seminar because we were leaving for the US, but look at the results that my staff had! We are ready to put another team together soon as the monthly support comes up about $1,200. We have many schedules that are waiting for us to come. If you’re sowing monthly you are reaping the souls right along with us, it goes to your heavenly account. You can only take souls to heaven with you, so what are you waiting for, let’s fill the Kingdom of God up. Yes we Can! |

August 2016 Newsletter
Seminar: God’s battleground against mindsets debilitating the Great Commission! |
||||
By Pastora Remy Mordeno
|
||||
We originally set up a seminar Batch 126 in Carcar, Cebu but we were unable to get all the details ironed out so the training standard could be maintained, we had already bought our plane tickets and all of sudden another opportunity developed in Lapu Lapu City, Cebu even closer to the airport and they could comply with our standard of training. In a 2 week period of time Ptr Jimmy Casinillo of Lapu Lapu was able to coordinate with his network of pastors and organize a training of Stealth Evangelism at his church CITY LIGHT Church as the venue. We had 29 pastors and leaders finish the course, which we considered God’s Remnant, and we had several of God’s Generals or church planters from that area attend.
The first day was difficult and challenging as you can feel the air of superiority complex among the pastors, most of whom were highly educated. It is difficult to put something in to a glass already filled up and they don’t want to make room for something new. Challenging because the diversity and complexity of mindsets etc. among the classmates needed to be synchronized and be in tune with the mandate of the Lord as their top priority. It appears that God’s Great Commission had long been abandoned and was taken as of least importance. Honestly the devil in weaving his web, manages to convince many of the leaders in the body because of fear of rejection and lack of preparation that evangelism is elementary once they step into their pastoral roles in the body of Christ. These are the mindsets that we try to deal with and break off these awesome leaders and pastors. This debilitation of the Great Commission is going on all over the world. Our seminars help pastors identify these debilitating problems in our leadership worldwide. On the last day, 4 practicums were completed but the results were below average, only 5 met the required 30 presentations. The Lord impressed on me to give them a 5th practicum (which we have never done), we extended the duration of the seminar to another half day. They agreed and God touched them and spoke to them to comply. Alas, the remaining 24 people went on to complete the requirements with a total of 885 presentations and won 1,113 precious souls to the Lord. Praise the Lord Jesus! Pastor Ruben Cadavos, retorted that attending the Stealth Evangelism is like raising him from the dead as this seminar resulted to awaken and revive his passion to share the Gospel. Make sure and read his powerful testimony in this newsletter. In every seminar the Holy Spirit is our counselor and brings these things to the surface for precision surgery by the great physician. Halleluia! |
||||
Young man sharing his testimony of averted suicide!
|
||||
Suicide averted during practicum! | ||||
The highlight of this batch was a young man under a bridge in heavy rains was found by our students and the Gospel was shared to him. He was contemplating on committing suicide as his wife and children had left him, he hadn’t eaten in several days, and he couldn’t even find his mother. This student brought him to the church and called her friends to ask clothes and food for him. Isnt it amazing that without the practicum, this man could have been dead, but now he has eternal life. What a bonus from the Lord!
Truly all ended well despite the odds. The hand of God is always at work. Glory to God forever and ever…Amen Pastora Remy Mordeno |

||||
A note from Pastor Tony! | ||||
Our role in the end times harvest is critical worldwide and we need more support monthly to train these wonderful men and women of God everywhere we can. There are so many Cities, and Provinces that the Pastors are asking us to come do mobile seminars. The list keeps building every month and we have bookings up into November and could be more if we had the funds to do them. Every time we do a seminar there are more than a thousand people getting saved sometimes several thousand and that is just the beginning because every church we impact creates a perpetual stream of new souls every month running like a river into the church. Each seminar impacts many churches. You can be a partner and share in the building of the Kingdom of God by sowing into these precious pastors training. It takes $1,200 to $1,500 per seminar and we do at least two mobiles or more monthly. They are going to get more costly in the future because the demand is increasing and I will need a couple of more staff to go with us each time due to the increased size of the group. Please think about taking thousands of souls to heaven with you when you leave. They are the only thing you can take to heaven. There’s no better way to win souls than to multiply the number of soul winners worldwide. So, please come on board with us so we will never have to say we can’t come!

“It was like being raised from the dead!” | ||||
Pastor Ruben Cadavos
The impact of this training is like being born again for the second time. When I accepted the Lord in my life 21 years ago I was on fire to share the Gospel to anyone when I have an opportunity. When I “grew up” in my Christian faith, the burning desire to share the Gospel started to decline or being intentional in sharing the Gospel especially now that I have so many responsibilities to attend to, being a husband, a father and a pastor. My attitude towards The Great Commission became a second priority. Attending Stealth Evangelism is like raising me from the dead. The simple but very effective method in sharing the Gospel awakened my enthusiasm to share the Gospel as a lifestyle not an option. The simple way of presenting the Gospel gives me more confidence and skill to present Christ to anybody anytime anywhere! I believe this tool will make our church/ministry/congregation upside down and will never be the same church as before but a vibrant church that will radiate the glory of Christ!

“I thought I knew this!” | ||||
Pastor Jimmy Casinillo
I’ve been a pastor for many years already and directly involved in training leaders for evangelism and discipleship. Our church is actively involved in winning and disciple-making and aiming to multiply a multitude of leaders. With this experience and outlook deep within is the temptation to think that I don’t need any training as far as evangelism is concerned, at all; “I knew this” I said to myself. However God is so persistent in telling me to join, not observe, the training. And I did. To my amazement I realized I am only good at telling people what to do and how to do it from my own perspective. After the training, however, God did change my heart. I will be able and am now able to train my leaders and other pastors later, not just from my own insights or understanding but powerfully coming from my direct and personal winning experiences through Magnum 357. Praise the Lord! |

US Trip August 16 – September 14 | ||||
Calli and I will be coming to the US on Aug. 16. We are coming to see family and friends and attend the Kingdom Global Ministries – World Connect Conference on August 29 in Dallas. We would like to thank KGM Larry and Devi Titus for making arrangements with a special partner to pay for the flight, food, accommodations for the Conference. A very special thanks to the special partners for giving us this opportunity to come back and receive the love and hugs that we were unable to receive after the tragedy of the loss of our precious daughter Felicity Anne Privado and the burning down of Dunamis International Mission Center. We need some hugs ya’ll! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! | ||||

Remember, “Crosses for Krystel!” | ||||
As I mentioned in last month’s newsletter, when we come back to the US our daughter Krystel is coming with us for the first two weeks, visiting friends and family. I am trying to plan a little surprise for her and need your help.
Krystel had a collection of crosses around her room before the fire. She had collected them throughout her life. (She also likes to wear different crosses on chokers.) Many were given to her by friends and family at different times for different occasions. They were all consumed by the fire, save a couple that were hard enough metal, now they are just changed by the fire (Just like us!) Please pray about it and if the Lord leads, look for a cross that you could give her if we come your way. Please don’t tell her ahead of time, I’m trying to surprise her, and that’s hard to do! If we aren’t able to see you this trip and you want to join in anyway, you can mail it to our office in Amarillo with a little note to her. Revival Fire Ministries International, PO Box 30487, Amarillo, TX 79120. I know this will mean so much to her. She has lost so much in her life, including her sister Felicity and her pal Gracie her dog, but remains strong in the Lord no matter what. God bless you all and thank you so much! Love you, Calli |

“SWAT” ORGANIZED AND READY TO ATTACK!! | ||||
Soul Winners Annointed Team has been organized after graduation in Negros Occidental, as an aftermath of the recently concluded Stealth Evangelism Training held at Christian Fellowship Church, Binalbagan, Negros Occidental. Pastors from different municipalities of different churches and denominations came to join and were equipped with 357 Magnum Technique.
31 graduates were added to alumni database of Dunamis International School of Missions, they won 1,455 souls and did 1,248 Presentations. Immediately after the graduation rites where they received their certificates, the elected President of SWAT has presided over the meeting to schedule their monthly meetings with practicum evangelism exercises, with a goal to saturate Negros Occidental which has a land area of 796,000 hectares (Approx. 2 ½ acres per hectare) and a population of close to 5 million people, and to win the land for Jesus. The batch will use their 357 Magnum technique on a monthly basis to assist pastors/fellow alumni who took the program, to grow the membership of their respective churches. They will take turns in doing the monthly practicums, going around to all the churches and eventually plant churches in barangays(like counties) where there are no churches. WOW!! What a way to unite the pastors of different denominations. They are now one in spirit to fulfill the Great Commission…no more proselytizing…Alleluia! Apart from the monthly practicums, the secretary will also correlate their reports of their 2 presentations a week commitment which is also a lifetime assignment. This ensures a perpetual stream of new souls being led to the Lord on a consistent basis in all their churches. Attending the seminar released a very strong impact on the lives of the attendees. The results of this training were evidenced by a shift of mindset, to a burning desire to win souls, and overcoming their fear of rejection (they were taught how to convert a rejection to acceptance of the Lord). They also enjoyed the practicum as they felt battle ready by learning what to say and how to make friends. Pastor Anselmo Belangel declared that this training is diametrically in contrast to the usual seminars he attended which were mind wrestling, mentally tiring, etc. He found this so easy to learn, simple, and the workshop was encouraging them to be flawless/verbatim, while the practicums taught them how to approach a stranger, catch his attention and eventually lead him to the Lord. Thus, they not only made a friend, but also won a soul for Jesus…what a bonus!!! As Dunamis team leaves Negros Occidental, our hearts were filled with joy and pride, knowing that what the Lord started in the hearts of those pastors thru Stealth Evangelism, it shall remain forever, with their lifetime commitment of using the 357 Magnum Technique. Our 3rd batch in 3 weeks, God has sustained us and the feeling of physical exhaustion has been overtaken with feelings of self fulfillment and pride, as we felt their strong passion now to prioritize Evangelism and put heavy weight of their efforts to the mandate of our Lord, which is the Great Commission. The SWAT of Negros Occidental is now ready to attack, combat ready and loaded with their atomic bomb – 357 Magnum! They will keep on firing their 357 Magnum till the land is completely conquered for Jesus!!Amen! GLORY TO GOD FOREVER AND EVER!!! Pastora Remy Modeno |
||||
Partnering Opportunity! | ||||
Friends, please remember that these Stealth Evangelism Seminars are extremely cost efficient yet they do cost money. We spend between $1,200 to $1,500 for each seminar where we fly to the location. We do at least two of these monthly. The next seminar is on July 26 -29 in Cebu City, Mindanao Island. This is an opportunity for you to partner in the reaching of several thousand souls for the Kingdom of God. Wow! What an opportunity to help with the building of God’s Kingdom. Please help us monthly with something! Talking about laying up riches in Heaven. Calli, got a vision of souls being the jewels of the Lord many years ago when she was looking at a Jeepney full of people, she said the Lord spoke to her and told her the Jeepney was a jewelry box full of His Jewels, Praise the Lord! | ||||
Special Request from Tony and Calli! | ||||
We have a special request for some help for my #1 Staff lady at Dunamis International. She has been working with us for a couple of years and has been an exemplary staff member. She laid down her life for the Lord to do this work that God is calling us to. She was a highly trained executive in Dubai before returning home to be with her family. Not too long after she returned she came on board with us as our office admin and promoter of our school to pastors all over the Islands. She is way over qualified for the job, yet she decided to stay on here with a huge pay cut (from her original job in Dubai) and help train the leadership of God’s church with us.
Recently, her son Jake broke his arm and has had 3 surgeries on it to no avail. The doctors want to put metal braces in his arm to keep it from moving so that it will heal and be stronger. He had been on medication for years that weakened the bone is the reason for the problem. It will cost Pastora Remy $1,350.00 for the surgery and she doesn’t have it. They will not do the surgery without full payment. She doesn’t make enough money at her job to do this. Guy’s, Remy is a trooper and we need to take care of our soldiers. She desperately needs help! Calli and I have given her some to help but we are still strapped financially ourselves waiting on the insurance to pay on the fire that destroyed our mission center in February. If you’d like to help her financially please just send it through our office in the US (Revival Fire Ministries International, PO Box 30487, Amarillo, TX 79120) or online through our web site, please note on your gift, “for Remy”. We will get it to her immediately. |
