SANJAY SASANE
On the morning of 12th May 2011, at 2.30 a.m. I suddenly suffered a stroke. My left side got paralyzed and my mouth went askew, affecting my speech. My wife was understandably alarmed. But the first thought that came to her was JESUS and she immediately called up one of our church leaders for prayer. I felt a little better after that and the same evening was able to drag myself to the Wednesday Bible class. Everyone was shocked to see me. Pastor Robin Almeida prayed over me while the others silently joined in agreement, extending their hands towards me.
During the worship that followed, my mouth came straight and my speech became normal. I was able to raise my limp arm, my leg got strong and I began dancing in joy and praise to Jesus who had worked this great miracle in me. Praise be His Holy Name forever and ever!

SERVICE OF SUNDAY 8th MAY
Pastor Robin preached on the passage from John 20: 19-22, in which John tells us that Jesus showd Himself to His disciples on the evening of His Resurrection as they were gathered together behind closed doors for fear of the Jews. Jesus stood in their midst and said, "Peace be to you." The disciples must have been stunned! But they were sure it was Jesus only when He showed them the wound marks on His hands and side. The passage says,"Then the disciples were glad..."
Pastor Robin said that it is easy for us to wish others peace. Anyone can do that. People will recognize the Lord in us only when we show them our former wounds. Behind what people now see as glory, there is a story! People may try to immitate Pastor Robin in his style of preaching and teaching. But no one can immitate the wounds that are behind the power and glory of Jesus that he now displays. Jesus forms and trains his people in secret, away from the view of others. That's why a real person of God cannot be immitated. Pastor Robin spoke of the long and terrible suffering that Pastor Benny Hinn had been put through by his own family. Behind every glory, there is a story!
If we are now experiencing hardships and suffering, it can only mean that the Lord is preparing us for greater service in His Kingdom! Before babies are born into the world, they are formed in the darkness of the womb. Seeds are sown into the darkness of the earth and must remain in darkness until it is time to shoot up into daylight as glorious new plants. Pastor Robin encouraged everyone to stand firm in the face of suffering and to wait in hope for the day of glory. Praise the Lord!

SICKNESS
Elaborating on Mark 5:25 ff, on Sunday May 1st, Pastor Robin said that God created everything good and positive. He definitely did not create sickness. Sickness came into the world from Hell! So when we accept the salvation of Jesus and get back into the Kingdom of God, we cannot be sick unless we choose to believe the lies that Satan keeps telling us. We should fix our minds on the TRUTH that JESUS has freed and delivered us from all sickness, every curse and every bondage. PRAISE THE LORD!

SUNDAY 1st MAY SERVICE
On Sunday, May 1st, Pastor Robin preached on Mark 5:25 ff, about a woman who had suffered from a flow blood for 12 years and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she bypassed the laws of her tradition and despite her extreme weakness, pushed her way through the crowd and came behind Jesus. She had planned to not even let Him know what she was doing and accordingly, touched the hem of His garment. The bleeding stopped immediately and she felt in her body that she was healed. But Jesus felt the power go out of Him and immediately inquired who had touched Him. After she had told Him the whole truth, He praised her faith saying, “Daughter your faith has made you well. Go in peace and be healed of your affliction.”
Pastor noted that we could be bleeding not only on a physical level, but also in our minds, not knowing where the wound really is. We could have been wounded even in early childhood. Addressing the congregation, Pastor said, “Just like the woman heard about Jesus after 12 long years of suffering, you may have come here because someone told you about Jesus perhaps after you have suffered for a long time. But you have come to the right place, not by accident, but because Jesus has called you here.”
After elaborating on the passage and drawing many practical points from it, Pastor invited everyone to reach out their hands and to touch Jesus by faith while he prayed for healing of various sicknesses. As he received a ‘word of knowledge’ from the Lord, he announced specific healings that had taken place. Many experienced their problems disappear, even among the 24 new comers. Many wanted to testify at the end, but due to a time constraint, Pastor invited testimonies only from the new or fairly recent comers.
TESTIMONIES
Sangeetha Jadhav had been on medication for weakness for the last 8 years, but to no avail. She began attending our services 5 Sundays ago. Her symptoms of weakness had completely disappeared. Praise the Lord! Another woman who also suffered from long-standing physical weakness came up to testify that she now feels well and strong. This was the 4th Sunday she had attended.
Laxmi Desai is bedridden with paralysis. Her daughter had come to the service twice with a problem of tiredness and severe pain in her right knee. The pain had disappeared during the service and the tiredness gone. Her sister also came up weeping uncontrollably at how much they had suffered because of their mother’s illness. Pastor prayed with the 2 sisters for Laxmi’s healing, joined by the whole congregation who stretched out their hands towards them. We are now awaiting a great testimony!
Sandhya Jadhav from Chembur had come to the service for the 1st time. She had been suffering from bleeding for the past two years, accompanied by much pain. At this service, the bleeding had stopped and the pain had disappeared.
Another person, suffering from back pain for 13 years had been taking a lot of medication, but found no relief. As Pastor prayed that evening, the pain left him.
Victoria and another woman too had been suffering from a lot of tension. They both experienced the gift of peace.
Alvaro Baretto who came for the first time was healed of a long-standing back pain. He had also been experiencing relationship problems, but now felt a great sense of peace.
A small child whose eye was bleeding when his mother brought him to the service, was touched by Jesus in a mighty way. The bleeding stopped and it could be seen that the eye was completely healed. Praise the Lord!
