Gerri from Kenya suffered with<br />

AIDS for years. As her condition<br />

deteriorated, she developed<br />

lesions and grew too weak<br />

to care for her children. While<br />

visiting Kenya in 2009 to plan<br />

<strong>the</strong> 2010 outreach to Nairobi,<br />

Richard <strong>Roberts</strong> prayed for<br />

Gerri. After her symptoms improved,<br />

Gerri had new medical<br />

tests which proved she is healed<br />

of AIDS. She testified of how<br />

God healed her at <strong>the</strong> 2010<br />

Nairobi crusade.<br />

God knows <strong>the</strong> divine opportunities and doors that will open up for us in 2012.<br />

Jim from Tulsa went to his doctor<br />

with symptoms that turned out<br />

to be lung cancer. The lump in<br />

his left lung was significant, and<br />

it looked like he would need<br />

to have his lung removed.<br />

But his wife, Peggy, convinced<br />

him to go to Richard <strong>Roberts</strong><br />

for prayer. Richard laid hands<br />

on Jim and prayed. When Jim<br />

returned to his doctor for blood<br />

work, X-rays, and a CT scan,<br />

everything came back normal.<br />

The cancer was gone. And Jim<br />

became a Christian as a result<br />

of his healing.
