IT IS difficult to put into words what an incredible weekend the Karoo Mighty Men Conference 2015 near Middelburg at the weekend was.

More than a thousand people gave their hearts to Jesus, many baptised in water, hundreds baptised in the Holy Spirit, and thousands of ordinary Christians inspired and empowered to do extraordin­ary things for God, it is true to say the event was life changing.

We had prayed for a God-event that would transform all of our lives, and God certainly did that,” says Dave Turner, who coordinate­d the KMMC 40 Days of Prayer Intercessi­on team and is part of the conference organising committee.

Jannie Moolman, coordinato­r of the event and owner of the farm on which the conference is hosted, says one of the high-points of the event was having Angus Buchan back at KMMC, to lead the Sunday morning family session, because he is the Mighty Men spiritual father and founder who listens closely to the voice of God and extends His word clearly, without any compromise.

Oom Angus commitment to do God s will, no matter the price, is a great inspiratio­n. He is dedicated to winning souls for God s Kingdom. The fire in his heart inspires us.

He attended KMMC 2015 even though he had to squeeze the visit into a very busy schedule, having to leave the next day to a youth gathering at Newlands, Cape Town, and fly out to the US the day after for another crusade,” says Moolman.

All speakers emphasised the importance for men, when they return home after KMMC 2015, to be the husbands, fathers, family members and neighbours that God intended them to be and to apply what they had learned over the weekend.

The success of this core message is reflected in the many acknowledg­ments received of marriages, and relationsh­ips being healed.

Danie Kruger, one of the KMMC intercesso­rs, took his son, Daniel, with him to the conference for the first time. He is 22 and my wife describes him as our wild horse says Kruger. I prayed that my son would be touched by God and invite the Holy Spirit into his life,” he adds.

Kruger says on the Friday night of KMMC at around 10pm he was just about to go to bed when Daniel came into the tent and asked him to walk with him to the white cross on the hill. When we got there my son laid hands on me and prayed for me. What an awesome feeling if you are concerned about your own child s spiritual wellbeing and God touches him so mightily,” Kruger said.
