October Week 3 Monday Mission: A Tale of Love and Sacrifice: The Enduring Impact of Pastor Ambrose's Christmas Sermon

Your name again.

Okay, my name is Winston Lebga of the Cameroon Radio Television, the CRNCV National Station in Yehonde that's the capital city and I was in Nairobi, I think 2001-2003, I cannot remember very well it was the Christmas period.

We were at the Fathlands Baptist Church it was a Christmas Bay church service and the pastor printed this picture.

Pastor Ambrose, pastor Ambrose and Pastor Ambrose, this is for you, this is for you, pastor Ambrose.

You painted this picture of God's love for mankind, using Jesus Christ as a sacrificial lamb, and you and you threw inspiration from an attendant for the railway service who had to bring down the bridge for a train to go through.

And at the time that the train was coming, the attendant's son had gone to the point where the bridge had to make contact and would have killed the boy.

And the boy, in his heroics, was waving to his father, saying daddy, daddy.

And his father understood what was going to happen as the train was coming through.

He had to choose between leaving that bridge up, protecting his only son and killing all the people in that train, or bringing it down for the train to go through, and killing his only son and killing all the people in that train.

For bringing it down for the train to go through and killing his only son.

He chose to serve the multitude, to save the multitude, closed his eyes, brought down the bridge, killed the son.

The train came through and the passengers were waving at him and thanking him, not knowing that he had to sacrifice his only son for them to go through on that day.

Pastor, my younger sister has never forgotten that story and we were very, very angry because after that church service we had about two more days in Nairobi.

We had to come back to Cameroon.

We were longing to be in your next church service.

It was the first time that we saw the singing of the hymnary using a teleprompter.

Thank you very much.

It was the first sign.

Thank you very much.

Stories from the mission field how God works, even through nothing.

That speaks to the message God so loved the word that he gave his one and only son that to serve and believe in him will not perish.

The same love continues, Pastor Ambrose, it's an encouragement to find your footsteps, and the message that you have preached has penetrated to the nation.

Therefore, even as we get here, we are encouraged that the seeds that you planted are still continuing to grow, to mature and to bear more fruits, even to the nations.

So, from the land of Cameroon, we are saying God bless you, we love you and we call you.

Pastor what do?

you have to say about that.

I love you and I'm a fan of the Harambee stance.

Well, you were beaten yesterday.

You were angry.

Yes, I'll just say that I was in Parklands Baptist Church from August 2023 to November 2023 and I really enjoyed your preaching, pastor Ambrose.

I really enjoyed your preaching, pastor Simon, and I said you have seen what he has done.

It is in Cameroon and it is growing, and I'm not sure it's not only in Cameroon, it's all over the world.

Please continue to preach with power, continue to preach with the Holy Spirit.

He will always go across the world.

Thank you and be blessed.

Thank you very much, thank you, and be blessed, thank you very much, thank you, thank you, thank you.
