people just think in business terms,”<br />
he explained. “I’m a minister; I see<br />
with eyes of faith. We need Andrew’s<br />
teaching on Isaac TV. I have studied his<br />
teachings in English, and I teach his<br />
lessons to the television audience in<br />
Urdu and Hindi. Although Andrew’s<br />
programs are not available in these<br />
languages, at least the people hear of<br />
God’s unconditional love and grace<br />
from me.”<br />
Conference Conclusions<br />
Before leaving Germany, Andrew<br />
paid his first visit to his year-old<br />
ministry office in Birchenfeld, where<br />
plans are underway to launch a Charis<br />
Bible College. During the conference,<br />
400 potential students attended the CBC information<br />
meeting with Wendell Parr (Director of CBC World<br />
Outreach). Of those, over 100 filled out cards requesting<br />
more information for both the Birchenfeld, Germany,<br />
school and the start-up school in Baden, Switzerland.<br />
Based on this level of interest, other schools may also<br />
be needed in Germany’s major cities.<br />
We left our time in Karlsruhe filled with wonderful<br />
reports. One lady, born without an ear, announced<br />
that she could hear through the ear that was not there<br />
after receiving prayer (her other ear was blocked when<br />
her hearing was tested). Another woman rose from a<br />
wheelchair and left the meeting walking. God’s love<br />
for the German people was evidenced throughout our<br />
visit in many ways.<br />
A Time for Ministers<br />
Whether well, sick, or just plain weary, pastors,<br />
evangelists, teachers, apostles, and prophets alike all<br />
need a time of refreshing. Andrew’s annual Ministers’<br />
Conference is just the place to receive this refreshing and<br />
more. This conference is not open to the public but<br />
instead is a time and place for full-time ministers to get<br />
off the stage, out of the spotlight, and relax together<br />
with others who share their unique issues. Andrew and<br />
Ministers’ Conference in Warwick, England<br />
Jamie love to minister to this special group, whether in<br />
the U.S.A. or in Europe.<br />
The 2011 conference was held at the Hilton<br />
Warwick/Stratford-Upon-Avon in Warwick, England,<br />
and was booked solid. In fact, many more wanted to<br />
come than accommodations could afford. Next year, a<br />
new venue will be sought!<br />
Andrew and his good friend, Pastor Bob Yandian,<br />
traded sessions throughout the three-day event,<br />
witnessing miraculous healings and hearing amazing<br />
testimonies of God’s goodness.<br />
One testimony was from Pamela, a pastor healed<br />
of a tumor following last year’s Ministers’ Conference.<br />
Another was from Mandy, the wife of Dave Morgan,<br />
former vocalist for the British rock band Electric Light<br />
Orchestra. Mandy told about how a fourteen-pound<br />
tumor in her stomach completely disappeared by<br />
“speaking to her mountain” after hearing Andrew teach.<br />
Aside from healing miracles, others were set free<br />
from other bondages. Former Muslim Japhary told of<br />
how he became trapped in a religious works mentality<br />
after converting to Christianity. Japhary wanted so<br />
much to “do something” for Jesus to show his gratitude<br />
for his salvation. His Muslim background made him<br />
vulnerable to a works mentality, and he needed to<br />
renew his mind. Listening to Andrew is what put him<br />
