Testimonials
A young woman in ward 4 (maternity ward) gave birth to a premature baby boy (premature by 2 months). The baby was very under weight and was not gaining. When breastfeeding the milk was coming out from the baby’s nose and mouth. After giving her life to Christ the baby immediately began to improve and both mother and child were discharged after two days.
An elderly Jehovah Witness lady had a 4 year old grand daughter in ward 8 (children’s ward) who had not gone to the toilet for four days. After the grandmother gave her life to Christ the child got better and was discharged the following day.
A young man in ward 6 (male general ward) who had a terrible fever for three days. After he and the mother gave their lives to Christ he got well and was discharged.
A young lady in ward 1 (female general ward) who had a headache and fever. After giving her life to Jesus Christ she got well and was discharged the following day.
