Testimonies from Cast & Crew

" For me what became a miracle is: I play a scene that became earthed in my life. In the intro scene I play the role of "Maqhankqa"  little did I knw that I will also hang the posters of good news in real life. (On the Roads of Cape Town!)This is prophetic to me that I will bring the good news to others, this links with the statement made by the Preacher in Madman scene one of my favourite lines: he said "God will use you!", in Jesus name let all the glory go to my Master and best friend Who made this possible." Gift S.Matebese     "There have been many fruits to pick for me through taking part. I have seen the importance of working together like a well-oiled machine. Every part HAS to do its share, or the others suffer. I have grown in discipline and in working under pressure. I also know many people better than before and feel enriched because of it, seeing Jesus in all of them!" Marlize Haasbroek "It is Thanksgiving Su

Young & Old Turn to the Living God

Janine - a member of the Good News cast came up to me smiling: "My Grannie got saved!" This was in addition to others who made a decision to follow Jesus on Saturday Night. One little girl gave her heart to the Lord and prayed with me. Jesus is alive and well and healing the brokenhearted today. We can just praise God for a wonderful run and for confirming His Word with signs and wonders following. Rudie Faurie - who played a lead role in the play, the Camera Man for Stella the reporter - operated in the gifts of the Spirit and had a word of knowledge for someone with severe pains in the left side of the brain, an elderly lady came forward and he prayed for her, she started to shiver and experienced the power of God! We look forward to following up possible shows next year Lord willing, in Durbanville, Mannenberg and some High Schools in Cape Town where there are so many more souls to reach with the Gospel of the Kingdom. In apostle Andre's Tract entitled "Turn to

Let Him Heal!

it is probably intimidating to admit that you have a broken heart during a live production in front of a theatre of strangers. What we have seen though, is that believers stand up and bring their friends forward for prayer. Throughout the Life of Christ there were people who weren't ashamed to cry out: "Jesus! Son of David! Have mercy on me!" Anyone who has been saved and truly born again have made a public confession of Jesus Christ  as their Lord and Saviour. The Holy Spirit helped us last night with words of knowledge to loosen up hte bonds that held people back from responding to God's love and the message in the show. One man with a lower spinal injury was ministered to and the anointing breaks the yoke. Tears flowed from some and deep healing took place. Apostle Leigh and Pastor Derrick got involved and laid hands on people in Jesus name - the value of including spiritual leadership in the cast and crew of Good News.

2 Souls and a Wedding!

When we performed Good News tonight, Cheyenne and Rudie acted out a salvation scene brilliantly. it was easy to step in and extend that invitation to the audience. When we have altar calls it is always a case of asking the question: "Will you make Jesus the Lord of your life today, and let Him heal your broken heart?" And then waiting to let the Holy Spirit do His work of conviction. one lady put up her hand and responded, came forward and then another friends bringing friends to Jesus - a beautiful sight - exactly why we produced Good News. When I spoke to the new convert afterwards, she introduced me to her fiance who recently gave his heart to the Lord at Church. his brimming smile said it all. They want to get married in January on a beach, and of course that would be a pleasure for us to organize! Some other souls followed suit. We also prayed for healing in some lives too. Praise God! Well done to Morne and Adel Van Wyk for bringing their friends to the production, but

Final Rehearsals

What a day! Yesterday I was shouting out "You can do all things through Christ Who strengthens you!" to the cast and technical crew. Today I had to say it to myself - the two-edged sword effect of the Word is awesome. It fights for others and cuts you loose too! Seeing the dancers do take after take tonight was inspirational to say the least. The technical crew had set things up so we could finally shoot the music video - 2 videos in fact, so watch this space for the Title track "Good News" and also the dance portraying the healing of the "Mad Man" from Africa, a true story that you can read about in our Reformer Newsletter. Well done to the team tonight, oops last night! A special moment for me was Cherie saying on her birthday "I could have gone on and on" she likes the African dance scene because it is quite challenging. But more importantly, she is using her God-given talent to help us spread Good News to her generation - glory to God for t

Good News Production

We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us! What a year of Good News it has been! The mere fact that most of the scenes in this production are based on real miracles experienced in the ministry is testimony to the power of Jesus Christ. Driving on our Roads in Cape Town I often get totally disgusted with the headlines on the lamp posts. But in true apostolic style, God's Spirit prompted me to write about Good News to raise a standard against the "filth and shame and stories that belong in the drain!" an excerpt from our title track "Good News." There is more to life than the world's media proclaims, and this show aims to lift up the Name of Jesus - He will heal people's broken lives and the news will spread far and wide, just like it did in the early Church. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Apostle Andre and Nola Pelser who dedicated their artistic talents in Drama and Music to the Lord so many years ago and decided to lay d
