KICC DOMINION<br />

CENTRE, GHANA<br />

THE BODY AND SOUL<br />

WALK<br />

Members of the Dominion Centre, Ghana embarked on<br />

its 12km ‘Body & Soul Walk’ in April. The day kicked into<br />

action with a hearty round of warm-up aerobics before<br />

embarking on the walk through the local community.<br />

Resident Pastor Andy Yawson said: “The purpose of this<br />

walk was to win souls for the Kingdom and get some<br />

exercise in the process. We used the opportunity to invite<br />

people to our Easter Sunday service and also distribute<br />

more than 5,000 pieces of Christian literature.”<br />

Our children’s department King’s Kids also joined the<br />

effort to share the Gospel. Accompanied by<br />

their teachers, the 8-12year olds went into the<br />

local community to invite other children to<br />

their Easter Super Sunday party.


The effect on the Easter Super Sunday was amazing<br />

with a record 871 children attending!<br />

JUNCTION MALL<br />

OUTDOOR FESTIVAL.<br />

As part of the Easter celebrations, we held an outdoor<br />

music festival at The Junction Mall in Nungua, a<br />

suburb of Accra. The concert was on Easter Monday<br />

and included ministrations from the Dominion Centre<br />

Praise Team, Tehilla, Hymns Alive, Xpressions,<br />

and Pastor Helen Yawson. The holiday crowd really<br />

enjoyed the event, which ultimately saw Pastor Andy<br />

lead people to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and<br />

Saviour.<br />

KICC MALAWI<br />

MARRIAGE SUMMIT<br />

In a bid to strengthen marriages within the church,<br />

KICC Malawi held its marriage summit “Marriage:<br />

CENTRE<br />

During the Easter weekend<br />

KICC Togo shared the Gospel<br />

with the local community<br />

through a Movie Night –<br />

gathering close to 100 people<br />

held baptismal classes, and on<br />

Sunday during its Easter<br />

service, “The Dawning of a<br />

New Day” 3 people were<br />

baptised to the glory of God.<br />

2 DAYS OF<br />

WONDERS<br />

In March KICC Togo held its first ever crusade: 2 Days of Wonders, hosted by KICC’s Founder and Global President Pastor Matthew<br />

Ashimolowo led the powerful programme, which took place at the Terrain De Basketball, Stade Omnisports De Lomé. The power of<br />

God was present and people testified to receiving miracles, instant healing – we witnessed as the deaf began hearing – and precise<br />

prophecies were given.<br />

CHRIST FOR THE RURAL<br />

NATIONS THE MISSION<br />

TO AHAFO<br />

For the second year running KICC joined hands with<br />

the Charismatic Evangelistic Ministry (CEM), Ghana<br />

to deliver the Christ for the Rural Nations Crusade<br />

in April. As part of the effort to bring physical and<br />

spiritual relief to the people of the rural district<br />

of Ahafo, Ghana members from KICC in the UK<br />

and Ghana volunteered their time and expertise to<br />

facilitate the 5 day event. KICC also donated XXX<br />

containers.<br />

Here is a word from the sisters and brothers who<br />

boarded planes and travelled several thousands of<br />

miles to bring souls into the Kingdom of God.<br />

“Missionary work was always what I wanted to do,<br />

when Reverend Mensah came to minister at KICC<br />

last year I just knew that is what I was going to be<br />

doing.”<br />

“This is missions with a difference! We were catering<br />

to people’s physical needs, not just to their spirits”.<br />

“Healing and deliverance in the evening service


was the highlight for me. A brother and I<br />

were used to heal a young girl of deafness<br />

in one ear. I anointed another with oil and<br />

deliverance took place.”<br />

“I marvelled at the way God was using his<br />

children. Through me a deaf and dumb<br />

lady was healed and a child’s arm was<br />

straightened.”<br />

“A totally humbling experience and a must<br />

for everyone who considers themselves a<br />

Christian.” As the Bible states, ‘… go ye into<br />

all the world and proclaim the gospel’’<br />

“Pray for yourself and allow God to use you<br />

to do something in someone’s life.”<br />

“I think it is something that people ought to<br />

do. Go on a missions trip to challenge your<br />

faith!<br />

“I have heard Pastor Matthew preach<br />

on the blood before, but this time it was<br />

different. Following that message, there was<br />

a spontaneous outbreak of miraculous and<br />

over 4,000 people gave their lives to Christ.”


T E S T I M O N Y<br />

PROMOTION COMES<br />

FROM THE LORD!<br />

Last year we accelerated and<br />

this year we are overtaking!<br />

I want to share how the Lord has spectacularly manoeuvred me<br />

through my career in law. I am a legal adviser in Her Majesty’s<br />

Courts and Tribunal Service and to the glory of God, He has<br />

promoted me twice within a year. Last year the promotion was<br />

THE BATTLE<br />

BELONGS TO<br />

THE LORD!<br />

We are a young couple who spent the first one and a half years<br />

of our blissful marriage creating assets from our incomes. One of<br />

our major assets was acquiring two plots of land in a prime area in<br />

Accra. Although we had legal title to the land, the minute we started<br />

to develop it, the ownership came under dispute. Apparently, there<br />

was a dispute amongst the family that sold the land to our real<br />

estate agent. Because of its prime location the same land had been<br />

sold to another estate developer who had begun to build on it. They<br />

planned was to relocate us.<br />

At one point it felt like we had to give – the other parties were<br />

financially stronger and more influential. However… just when<br />

we were at our wits end KICC Dominion Centre he’d its annual<br />

conference “When Champions Gather”. During the conference<br />

Dr. Mike Murdock encouraged us to sow a seed. My wife and I<br />

encouraged each other to take a step of faith. So we came forward<br />

and sowed. Dr. Murdock declared that we have won every battle<br />

we were fighting. On the final day of the conference Dr. Murdock<br />

challenged 70 people in the congregation to sow a seed of $8,500.<br />

This was backed with Bible verse: God is not a man that he should<br />

to a Legal team manager. I attained this without having to go<br />

through the process of having an interview. Two positions were<br />

advertised. One was for Training Manager and the other was for<br />

Family Manager. I wanted the Family Manager, however, I was<br />

offered the position of the Training Manager.<br />

After that I had a period of sickness and was hospitalised.<br />

However, the Lord accelerated my healing and the doctors were<br />

pleased with the speedy recovery. This is amazing. In spite of the<br />

poor report, God healed me.<br />

On my return to work I got straight into my new job. Soon after<br />

this my manager was retiring and she suggested that I apply for<br />

her job. My husband challenged me as to whether or not I wanted<br />

the job! If so I know what to do.’ So, on that instruction, I began<br />

to take it seriously. The interview went amazingly well. One of the<br />

panel met me with a friendly salutation; the favour was already<br />

working!<br />

The feedback I got was that I was clearly the candidate for the<br />

position. I came over as being calm and assured. I have now<br />

been appointed as Acting Deputy Justices’ Clerk for the whole of<br />

Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire! One position below the overall<br />

boss, the Justices’ Clerk. This role oversees both the Family and<br />

Training role which I went for last year.<br />

We praise God indeed!<br />

Jennifer, KICC Wembley<br />

lie Numbers 23:19. I told my wife ‘this is a hard one’. She suggested<br />

we sow one of the plots of land as a second seed. We did and I thank<br />

God for my beautiful wife. Around the same time, my mother was<br />

diagnosed with memory loss due to depression. Things became<br />

very tough for us. After days and nights in prayer God asked us to<br />

allow Him to take over, in order for Him show His Glory.<br />

For the first time ever, on 22nd December 2016, I received a call<br />

from the family disputing possession of the land and property now<br />

built on it. They agreed to release everything. They said that I had<br />

already processed the paperwork and it would not be wise for me<br />

to relocate to another estate developer. They said that if the estate<br />

developer was not happy they would refund his money. In addition<br />

to this, the Doctors have confirmed that my mother’s memory loss<br />

is no more. My God is not a man that He should lie. We thank God<br />

for these testimonies.<br />
