DR DAG HEWARD MILLS
Thousands expected to attend evangelist’s meetings, workshops
FAMED Ghanaian evangelist and author Dr Dag HewardMills will visit Port Elizabeth early next month for “a time of healing”.
More than 200 churches in Port Elizabeth have endorsed the Heward-Mills event, taking place at the Dan Qeqe Stadium in Zwide from December 1 to 3.
Organisers said they were expecting no fewer than 1 000 people each night and that the evangelist would be praying for healing for the sick.
Mayor Danny Jordaan’s office will welcome Heward-Mills at the City Hall at 1pm today.
The non-denominational Healing Jesus Campaign was founded by Heward-Mills, who will be the main preacher for the three-day event.
An international speaker who has given talks at more than 1 700 churches across the world, he will also conduct a two-day workshop in Algoa Park with the aim of empowering local leaders.
Pastor Neville Goldman of the Ebenezer Centre, who is also the campaign chairman, applauded the fact that leaders from different denominations would be at the same venue during the crusade to demonstrate a unified body of Christ.
“We believe this is only the beginning of great things to come in our city,” he said.
“Many people think the body of Christ is divided. We are standing together.”
Goldman also commended work being done by the Mount Road community policing forum cluster in their initiative to take back the city from drug dealers.
“Police can arrest criminals and drug dealers but it is the role of the church to transform people with the message of Christ,” he said.
“Last weekend, the Healing Jesus Campaign in Mitchells Plain drew more than 10 000 people, and an estimated 1 000 leaders from various churches attended the workshops.”
Healing Jesus Campaign spokesman Alfred Mzizi said the purpose of the crusade was to partner with denominations, ministers, Christian organisations and Christians across the metro
“The sole purpose of this campaign is to unify the body of Christ in Nelson Mandela Bay and promote moral regeneration in our city,” Mzizi said
The full programme will see workshops taking place from 8am to 1pm on December 2 and 3 at the Ebenezer Centre, and a church service at Dan Qeqe Stadium at 5pm nightly from December 1 to 3.
