Santa Rosa, NM Revival

October 31st through November 3rd I had the privilege of preaching a revival for Pastor Larry Sandoval in Santa Rosa, NM. He and his wife Lisa have been laboring in that city for the last 2 years after taking the church from George and Yolanda Cruz. Larry and Lisa were saved in the Pueblo, Colorado church and were instrumental as pillars and the beginning foundation of that church. That experience is paying off now as they are seeking to establish a thriving work in Santa Rosa.
 The revival went well as we saw a number of visitors and backsliders coming back to God. We also saw a number of people gloriously healed. One night a young man named Jagger came to the service backslidden and full of pain in his body due to a car accident some time back. He prayed to rededicate his life, then we prayed for healing and God instantly touched him and set him free. You could see a noticeable change in his countenance after service and he kept repeating how greatful he was to be relieved of his pain. He attended the remainding services and was on his way to a new life in Jesus! It is these types of miracles and transformations that keep my heart stirred for all that God wants to do in these last days. When you see God's willingness and compassion on people it makes it such a joy to serve Him.
