We had our 1st seminar in the Mission Center this week. Above are photos of Pastor Tony back in the groove of teaching after several months of focusing on construction and the lock down on Covid 19 Pandenmic! It’s good to be back training again at our home base! School room is on the 3rd floor of the center!
Knocked down but not out!
We’ve been in the largest boxing match of our lives training the leadership of the Body of Christ with Evangelism weapons of warfare for the last 17 years. We’ve been knocked down financially & many other ways, many times because satan has tried to destroy this ministry simply for the fact that the Kingdom of God is growing exponentially thru the one on one Stealth Evangelism Program that we developed that makes churches grow through the harvest. This is wreaking havoc on the kingdom of darkness and the devil pulled out all the stops on February 17th 2016 and tried to take us out permanently when our beautiful Mission Center was consumed by fire. In that tragic fire we lost everything but our night clothes and even worse it took the life of our precious missionary daughter Felicity Anne Privado. We had never received such a blow in our lives. We were completely, unequivocally knocked down! Seemingly helpless with desolated hearts that were so empty from the loss of Felicity. We were taken to a hotel that night with Krystel our other daughter that is here with us. We were all but finished! You know, God sustained all of us! That week we had a service for Felicity at two different churches. God started putting us back together piece by piece.
Six days after the fire we were scheduled to have a Stealth Evangelism Seminar on Mindanao Island in Cagayan de Oro City. We had plane tickets for the staff and I made the decision to rise from the ashes, and show the devil we were not out! He had not accomplished what he wanted. During the seminar there were 3,317 people that gave their hearts to Jesus. We trained 33 pastors and leaders, and we put the devil on notice right then and there that all heaven was going to break loose on the kingdom of darkness and we weren’t dead, but very much alive. Since that time, we had 28 to 31 seminars every year (which translates to more than 40,000 souls brought into the kingdom each year for the last 3 1/2 years until the pandemic. That does not include the souls generated by our alumni of 7,000 pastors and leaders and more than 30,000 additional church members and leaders that have been trained by them. So roughly 37,000 plus avid soul winners are storming the gates of hell year round from the Dunamis alumni. With the mission center gone, we had to switch to mobile seminars all over the Islands and God has blessed that. In the mean time we had to basically oversee the construction of the new Dunamis International Mission Center and School of Evangelism.

First class in the new mission center! Even with the local Covid rules!
This week we held our first evangelism seminar since the Covid 19 pandemic began. We were limited on the number of people we could have in a gathering, but we pushed through and more than 400 people were born again with a class of only 6, 3 pastors and 3 missionaries. They were all so blessed with the training and their hearts were just exploding with joy and passion for winning souls! It was a special time for us because opening of the new school meant so much to us. “Despise not the day of small beginnings!” HaHa! It wasn’t so small to the devil. It meant we didn’t die, we were not crippled, because we did more seminars after the fire than ever before. All things work together for those that love the Lord and are called unto His purpose. Folks we are going to kick the devil’s butt with everything we have till Jesus comes or we graduate to Heaven. I know this much, time is short for us all because life is “but for a moment” and there’s only one thing you can take to Heaven with you and that is the souls of men! You can join the battle with us with monthly support, or one time gifts, special inheritance gifts, if you have land you don’t need, sell it and sow it, car you don’t need, same! Please start thinking about sowing financial seeds into souls while you still can. We only live this life one time and then we go to be with the Lord. Help us make sure that as many people as we can reach will be reached because we will have an abundance for reaching souls. We owe approximately $60,000 after completion of the amazing new mission center. Maybe you can help clear that debt so we can use all special gifts to do more seminars and more evangelistic thrust. Calli and I live off our Social Security and small rental income. All gifts we receive go to spreading the gospel.
Remember this wonderful scripture that we all know, “Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you. Luke 6:38 (NKJV).
Special needs at this time:
Good used school van ($19,000), we had to sell our school van last year to help finish the mission center. Now that we have resumed classes we really need a van to transport students when they go out witnessing.
15 mattresses with sheets and pillows ($900)
