South East Ambrym 2007

The Tour was themed “Home Sweet home” simply because most of the boys who were part of the tour were members of the Revelation 7s visiting their home Island for a first time, after several years. The Meeting was co-funded by the GO Advent Ministries with Minister Titus John being the Main speaker during the 2 long weeks of the Evangelistic campaign meeting. A lot of challenges occurred along the way including the lost of the Generator power supplies and power supply lighting facilities.  The Meeting went well during the first week but then a lot of challenges came during the second week of the meeting where people were stopped by their leaders not to attend the meeting.

However the meeting finally ended and many who attended the meeting have made their decision to follow the Truth. The boys returned after spending over 1 month in the island due to unavailability of shipping transport back to Port Vila.

The Acappella Union boys have taken yet another trip to one of the most beautiful spot of the Country, Epi Island.

This eventually materialised and the AU boys accompanied Howard to that two weeks meeting. God has shown his great power through out the meeting with proves of people coming from all over the island, most of which are not Seventh Day Adventists. The message was plainly presented with open invitations and more than 30 Souls have indicated their stand to follow God true Church and keep the Sabbath. The Team Lead by Mr. Kency and Dr Rennie successfully completed their part in the meeting and finally returned to Port Vila.

It was really a great challenge for us to make three international tours in one year and two national tours. However God promise that all gold and silver are His and if we make ourselves available He will mightily use us in His services. Despite very expensive airfares we manage to send 20 young people to Australia to share the love of GOD to the people of Australia especially in Brisbane. Australian tour was a very unique due to unforeseen circumstances and trials that we encounter. We have to travel in twos and threes until we all made it to Australia. Suppose it wasn’t God almighty we couldn’t have made it. He still remains the God of Acappella Union and our God until be will come to takes us home. Our God will and still will supply our needs for his services till we will meet him in Heaven.

The boys did visitation and sang in one of the main workshop organize by the South Pacific Division at Watson Part theme as “MOVE WITH POWER II”. Apart from that we did several concerts around SDA churches in Brisbane. The Lord blesses us and provides us with many blessing including housing and food.

Ancillary, in conjunction with evangelism, the Acappella boys branch their intention by presenting Health messages and facilitate workshops which meant to benefit public; and execute visitations and willingly formulate Bible studies with the interested recipients.

During the period of public evangelism, issues and challenges mounted up to degrade or halt the progress of night and day series. Nevertheless, the mission was completed and giving a responsibility for our church to make follow ups seriously with the interested individuals.

At the end of the meeting, many people have come to understand GOD’S WORD.
