The Story of Pastor Anil Nilangekar _ February 2020 Gospel Camp of Pune, India

I thank God praise God for this sharing opportunity. I wholeheartedly appreciate Gospel camp teaching. This time was my 4th gospel camp. I was deeply touched by the Spirit of God every time. I have never imagined that I would join the Gospel camp for the fourth time. When I encountered Jesus through the Gospel camp for the first time in 2017, it was so difficult and challenging for me to share and confess my Gospel and to offer my 100 percent to God. It was because I have never heard the Gospel before like this. Yes, I understand about Jesus’ crucifixion and His resurrection. And I have also experienced the transforming power of the Gospel in Jesus Christ before. However, I was able to realize how spiritually deprived I was and made me understand the Gospel more deeply and thoroughly through the Word, and that ultimately led me to Christ more closely during the training in the Gospel camp.

After experiencing the Gospel camp, the Lord gave me the desire to take this genuine and authentic Gospel to people who are lost and led astray away from Jesus Christ. So I want to share about this Pune Gospel Camp experience of the Holy Spirit. The date of this camp 25th February to 28th February 2020. I thank the Lord for this Gospel camp since we have asked the Lord to allow us to host this upcoming Gospel camp.

Although we have invited lots of people to participate in hopes of prayers, however, so many people have rejected to join the camp. Not only many applicants did not come to attend this Gospel Camp, but also, even some volunteers who pledged to serve did not show up at the camp. And this made my heart was very discouraged.

After all, I thank God for those students who came and got blessed from this Gospel Camp. In front of my eyes, I witnessed the miracle of God during “My Gospel” time. I never saw anything like this happening before.

Each of us had to wait to sit on the chair and wait for our turn to share our version of “My Gospel” before others. And I worried about these youths because they are not familiar with being transparent in their confessions regarding their weaknesses and most of them were often intimidated when sharing their testimonies. On top of that, since I have experienced two brothers ran away the time of “My Gospel” session in november Gospel camp, I was intensely worried and frustrated.

But when we worship and prayers were offered to God and when it came to the “My Gospel” session, the living miracle of the Holy Spirit was breaking out. I was crying and crying because of hearing their genuine version of the Gospel. Before I have to encourage people’s many times to come and share their version of the Gospel but this time they were automatically coming and sharing their version of the Gospel. And before the session of “My Gospel”, there was some youth who did not want to share their version of the Gospel but, when the session starts off My Gospel, everyone was coming automatically. The Holy Spirit was working there and one by one came and they share their version of the Gospel.

Especially, I want to share one thing what holy. Spirit was speaking with me, that two sisters seated in my Gospel session and when we prayed at that time Holy spirit speak me that they will come first to share and exactly both of them hearing from Holy spirit and they came to share and this is miracle and presence of Holy spirit happened there what we feel. Whatever we three heard in our hearts according to that happened and after the My Gospel session, they told me about this.

Everyone came and share in My Gospel session. I want to share about a few of them:

1) There was one who shared her version of the Gospel. That she got raped and enjoyed that then she addicted to all lustful things and porn. She was going away from God. She also slept with her girlfriend and continuously she was doing like this but when she heard true Gospel in Camp, she confessed all and she gave that 1% percent what she was not before. Now she freedom in Jesus and she feels set us free from sins.

2) There was another woman who also faces similar kinds of things in her life. She also slept with one woman. she away from God and loving worldly things but here perspective change. She understands the real Gospel that every suffering that she faces is a blessing. And she gave her life in Jesus Hands.

3) Also I want to share about one brother who is now studying law last year. He wants to become before mafia, don, a shooter like killing people. He deeds half murder ran away because people finding him. He hides in one of the Bible colleges because no one will come to find him there in a spiritual place. Then there he heard the. Gospel but he never shared this story to all and he never confessed this.

4) And I remember there were two youth’s who struggling to come and share their version of the Gospel. In the last time of Gospel Camp, they ran away from sharing but in this time Gospel camp time both of them can and share their version of the Gospel and I blessed from hearing this because they never share even their any testimony in the Church. But now they confessing their sins Infront of all. One was sharing how he was addicted to smoking and the other was sharing how he hiding from People to share that I am Christian every time he was lying to all. But now they are putting their life in Jesus Hands.

Thank you so much for your prayers!

Praise the Lord!

In Christ
