Dear Sold Out Disciples of Our Lord Jesus,

While this has been a very troubled year it has also been a great year for Kingdom advancement in our King of kings and Lord of lords Jesus Christ! So, I begin this letter with a brief look back and end it with a look forward to the coming New Year. And most of all, I do so with great thanks to our Savior Jesus who has raised up many of you who read this letter—as you have helped us prayerfully and financially—THANK YOU!

“You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.” John 15:16

Watch Therefore TV
Consider these words of our Savior as we remember that our Watch Therefore TV program blessed so many across America and the whole world! I receive letters, emails, texts, and phone calls every week from precious souls who are blessed tremendously from the Watch Therefore program. Some even have prayed to receive Jesus as Lord—and those are just the ones I know of—how many more are there who just thank the Lord and do not contact me? Heaven knows!

May/August Africa Trips
In May I was in Kinshasa Western DRC (Democratic Republic of Congo). We saw so many there pray to receive Jesus as Lord—oh Hallelujah! We ministered in churches teaching the Watch Therefore message and preaching the glorious gospel! Truly, this was a fruitful mission work. Just like our Savior told us in John 15—it was very fruitful!

Then in August I was in Rwanda and the Eastern DRC in a city called Bukavu. We had a series of outdoor events in a small village where we saw hundreds pray to receive Jesus as Savior and Lord! Then, off to Bukavu where I preached in two churches. We saw another almost two hundred pray to be saved in a few days.

Texas Church Plant (Calvary Chapel WTCF—Watch Therefore Community Fellowship)
Myself, my wife and our adult son, officially planted this church in January with eleven people including us! Initially we had a few people, very little money, and no building. The Lord gave us a place to meet—a daycare called Noah’s Ark Kids! Hallelujah—we have doubled in numbers and have about twenty-five regularly in attendance. Numbers are not our care as we are discipleship oriented—quality not quantity. We are praying Messiah Jesus brings us REAL Jesus people or those who will become REAL Jesus people.

That was our look back—and now a glimpse of a looking forward from Pastor Herman Gatware—our Watch Therefore team leader in Rwanda, Africa.

Dear friends,

Watch therefore Ministry, came in Africa brought by Reverend Dov and started in Rwanda. This wonderful and very important ministry came at the right time because it was a special and needy message that made and still makes almost all churches to watch therefore and be ready for the soon coming of our Lord Jesus Christ to take up all believers to live with Him in heaven.

Now because of this good message which has made much impact in bringing revival here in Rwanda through open air meetings, Pastor's conferences, ministering to different churches and at the same time praying for the nation of Israel and the peace of Jerusalem, and all these activities mentioned above were initiated by Reverend Dov of whom we appreciate for his God's calling upon his life. ‌ Therefore because of the results from the ministry of Watch Therefore, the news about the ministry is spreading very fast to our neighboring countries especially Burundi, DRC, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, South Sudan and not only that but even Ethiopia. To our amazement recently we received Bishop John from Kenya who came to Rwanda wanting to know more about the ministry

After meeting with the Rwandan Watch Therefore ministry team, Bishop John from Kenya was interested and then requested that Watch Therefore ministry be invited in Kenya.

Watch Therefore ministry Rwanda, for expansion of the ministry to other countries has now started to prepare the International Conference which will take place in Uganda next year 2024 in March, so that all the above mentioned countries be invited in order for Pastor Dov to come and share the vision of the ministry.

This work of God for holding church leaders conferences and the preparations of an international conference, Rwandan Watch Therefore team, from 10th to 15th, December 2023 will be going to Uganda to work on the preparations of the ministry.

Therefore, we cannot finish without mentioning about Praying for Israel and the peace of Jerusalem ministry where by many different churches have come to realize and understand about how the church should love and pray for the nation of Israel for it to be blessed. Psalm 122:6.

Church leaders praying for Israel.

God bless our brother Reverend Dov and all Partners of the ministry.

May all the glory be to God.

Love in Christ.

Pastor Herman and the Rwanda team

In all these ‘rearview mirror’ memories and looking forward through the ‘windshield’ Kingdom matters—may our Savior Jesus be praised!

Dear Poured Out Disciples of Messiah Jesus,

The Book of Proverbs is one of the greatest sources of wisdom known to mankind. A passage from this wisdom book is appropriate to begin this letter. May this Bible verse, and another one that is a perfect “cross” reference, touch your heart as you consider the content of this Poured Out For The Nations update.

“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.” Proverbs 11:30

“for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

With all the legitimate matters to be concerned about these days, it is important to make sure we are not distracted away from the mission of our Savior Jesus—to see souls saved! As I am typing this letter I am prayerfully considering a January 2024 mission trip to India—my first time to India! Our very special ministry partner Arch Bishop Reinhard oversees 2,000 churches in India! He has invited me for a visit to preach the gospel and bring the Watch Therefore message to precious souls all over the country.

Bishop Reinhard visited me while we were living in Israel and has been a guest on my TV program Watch Therefore. We prayerfully and financially support his very powerful gospel/discipleship work monthly. For about four years we have been praying about my visit to India and Lord willing January will be the time. Please join me in prayer and I will keep you posted.

Ongoing Africa Gospel/Discipleship Outreach

As many of you know, back in August we saw over 600 pray to receive Jesus as Lord in Rwanda and Eastern DRC (Democratic Republic of Congo). We are in ongoing discipleship work with many of them in Rwanda at this time. Our Africa Watch Therefore team recently met with them in a two- day morning and then afternoon teaching sessions. Please do prayerfully consider joining us to support this very fruitful work in the Lord’s field of harvest.

Watch Therefore TV Expansion

My Watch Therefore TV program certainly is a Poured Out for the Nations labor of love. This program goes out weekly to over 200 countries and 200 million homes! The cost of this Poured Out work is very expensive and we just stepped out in faith adding the GEB network to our Direct TV programming.

All I can say is that if it is the Lord’s will it is the Lord’s bill! Please pray that our Lord Jesus raises up those who will partner with us in a deeper way for this television gospel/discipleship outreach. Certainly, like the Psalmist says:

“My help comes from the LORD Who made heaven and earth.” Psalm 121:2

This TV outreach has two primary purposes:

1) Make faithful, wise, blessed disciples of Christ Jesus who are watching and ready for His anytime coming to take us back to that place He has been preparing for us. (Matthew 24:42-47/John 14:1-3).

2) Most every program I share the life-saving gospel with the lost according to the Scriptures noted at the beginning of this letter.

For those who would like to prayer partner with our ministry Poured Out for the Nations here are some closing prayer points:

•A revived heart to walk with Messiah Jesus in these final hours of this age
•Direction and funds for India in January
•Great Holy Spirit leading for our Watch Therefore Africa team
•Fruitful disciples of Jesus Christ to grow from our ministry efforts
•Many souls to be saved through our Holy Spirit led Kingdom efforts
•Great Holy Spirit leading for Watch Therefore TV content
•Funds for current and greater Watch Therefore TV expansion
•Poured Out monthly financial support for our ministry partners in Africa: Kenya, Rwanda, DRC and also Bishop Reinhard India

Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Matthew 24:42-44

I am so happy to report to you some of the great things our Savior is doing with our ministry in Africa! Of course, the August outreach in Rwanda and then the Eastern DR Congo was a smash! We counted 621 who prayed to repent and receive our Savior Jesus Christ!

There is ongoing discipleship with the new believers and for that we are very thankful. I am adding a picture or two and if you are a regular viewer of my program Watch Therefore you may have seen video footage of many new believers being taught basic Bible truths in a discipleship meeting for the new believers. (Above: Bible distribution)

This is in accordance with our Savior’s command to preach the gospel and make disciples. One should lead to the other or something is very wrong. An initial prayer to receive Christ must lead to then following our Savior.

Here are some passages establishing my assertions:

"And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." Mark 16:15

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.” Romans 1:16

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.”
Matthew 28:18-20

Tragically, the “Great Commission” has been lost in the shuffle of our modern Christian environment that is too often focused on the things of this life with very little thought of eternity. But the mission from the command still stands to go with the gospel and make disciples. Oh please, prayerfully consider joining us on mission by praying and giving as I do the going! (praying, giving, going!)

For many years I have been working with a dear brother in Christ who is a pastor, translator, and an authentic disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ. His name is Winner Luzolana and he has been my translator in Western DR Congo since I began traveling there about ten years ago.

Finally, our ministry has taken him on as a monthly partner in that we will help with his most urgent needs monthly and he will send us reports and be our man on the ground reporting from Kinshasa, DRC. He is deserving of much more than we can give his dear family, but we will do what we can to help every month Lord willing. I asked him to send an introduction for this letter—so below please meet Winner Luzolana.

Hello, my name is Winner Luzolana. I live in Kinshasa, DRC. I am a church leader and Watch Therefore/Poured out for the Nations partner. I am married to Princess Mushitu Luzolana, we have two Kids: Acacia Luzolana, our daughter, is nearly 5 years old and Gift Luzolana, our son, is one year and nine months old.

Actually, the poverty rate in the DRC is alarming. Unemployment, malnutrition, epidemics, criminality, insecurity and so many other kinds of strange and wicked phenomena are increasingly happening in this country because of war and bad political administration. I’m currently one of the people affected by this poverty. Being poor, jobless and suffering from diabetes type 2, it is hard for me to take care of my family and my treatment.

However, my wife and I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord—we met pastor Dov Schwarz. He was moved with compassion when he found out about our life situation. So he made up his mind to support us with a monthly donation. We are very grateful to Pastor Dov and his Ministry Watch Therefore/Poured Out for the Nations for the monthly giving support that they are sending to us. This support enables us to supply our family with basic foodstuffs such as: semolina, cassava flour, powder cream, oil, sugar, and baby’s diapers and medicines to treat my diabetes type 2.

Lastly, I pray God to provide for this Ministry and to fill their baskets in Jesus Christ's mighty name.

Blessings,

Winner Luzolana
