EVANGELISM IN KATUTURA HOSPITAL
Anna Nakafingo
On the 28th of September 2013 ASF Namibia went
on an Evangelism at the Children’s as well as the
Orthopaedic ward in Katutura Hospital.
Things of this nature (Ministry by the Youth) in our
country are not for the youth as they are
considered a “waste of time”, Evangelism and
preaching of the word is for pastors and priests. It
was great to see ASF Namibia is trying hard to walk
the walk, by sharing the Gospel of Christ with the
sick, sharing the love of God, letting the sick know
about the faith that heals, about salvation in the
name of our Lord Jesus Christ and to clean the face
of the hospital.
We arrived in the morning; we started the day with
a prayer just outside hospital’s main gate, from
there we went to the children’s ward. We shared
the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the children and
their mothers. This was the day that the Lord had
made for us to tell His people about the salvation
in the name of Jesus Christ. They should not doubt
of what the LORD can do because He is their
creator and He knew them before they were born.
The Good News as proclaimed by ASFers
In the orthopaedic ward, I can say that this was the
most interesting part of the whole evangelism
program as we were talking to people who are sick
not the same with the children because there we
were mostly talking to their mothers.
It was great interacting with them, there were
those who were longing to be well again, those
that were willing to listen to the Good News and
there also those one who want nothing to do with
the Gospel. Members read scriptures, shared their
experiences about being sick & how to overcome
anything in the name of Jesus Christ. ASFers also
encouraged the patients to take their medication
properly. We assured the patients that its only
faith in God can heal them, ask for forgiveness of
their sins for God to be able to hear their prayers
for its written that the hands of God are not too
short to touch us, His eyes are not blind to see us
and His ears are not deaf to hear us but our sins
have covered His face to hear us.
