400 more Women filled the auditorium of this large church used to host two special revival services for these women. The Church is strategically located in the midst of 13 surrounding villages in Al Minya.
We are gathering people from these villages to this place to minister the Gospel to them collectively. This is our second meeting this last week, these 400 women are a different group from the first meeting giving us a total of 800 Women reached.
Many received Christ as their Savior, others were touched by His Spirit as we prayed for their many needs.

Al Minya, Egypt Women’s Outpouring
Al Minya, Upper Egypt – Pastor Habib Assad
This was a day of spiritual outpouring for women in Minya, attended by about 400 ladies
I spoke from the Book of Jeremiah 33-1-9 concerning restoration; a time when healing, peace and trust abound.
About 40 Women asked for special prayer and for the peace of the Lord Jesus to rule their hearts.
The woman at the end of the video is giving a joyous and powerful testimony. She shared that she had prayed for more than 20 years for her brother, who was a drug addict and lived in evil. He has received the Lord Jesus as his personal Savior, repented and was delivered from his addiction and has became a child of God.
Pastor Rezk Melek Praise Chapel Al Qusiya, Upper Egypt
Our youth meetings continue to grow. About 50 of the youth attended the meeting today.
16 of them are young men!
Praise God! This is a miracle !!!
Most of them came an hour before the meeting to prepare their hearts.I preached about our position in Christ Jesus
We then spent a good time of prayer with them all, ministering to their individual needs.
ADDENDUM
Our Church in Al Qusiya continues to grow and thrive in Revival with several hundred women and almost as many children. Recently new families, especially young couples are coming to Christ. There is a growing expansion to the surrounding villages where one church that recently had closed has been reopened and new people are coming. Several other churches on the verge of closure have been reinvigorated as Pastor Rezk has responded to their requests for Revival Ministry and help. He now ministers to all of these works and the Spirit of God is moving in these poor villages.
“Go back to John and tell him what you have seen and heard – the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor.” – Luke 7:22
Pastor Layth Ibrahim, Praise Chapel, Duhok, Kurdistan Iraq
Pastor Layth met with two families from Baghdad in Southern Iraq and shared Jesus Christ with them. Seven people from these two families received Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
God has blessed us in serving different nations and peoples throughout the Middle East. Heyam and I have just returned from an 18 day outreach into three nations; Jordan, United Arab Emirates and Lebanon.
During this time we met and ministered to a variety of different nationals within these three nations, they included, Jordanians – Syrians – Lebanese – Africans – Egyptians – Iraqis and many others.
We ministered in 8 different regions within these 3 nations in 18 days.
More than 600 people were touched directly in the meetings, and the services were transmitted through social media to reach many thousands more throughout the Middle East.
HOME GROUP MINISTRIES
We had the opportunity to share food & fellowship with many different families in each country and minister to them in a group setting in their homes.
We were preaching / teaching / praising / praying.
We also participated in giving to help those with special needs.
Thank you very much for your interest, prayers and support to help us accomplish our Gospel Mission in the Middle East.
Looking forward to more and always moving for God’s work.

Pastor Rezk walking to Remote Village Church to help revive it after being closed for many years.
Pastor Rezk Melek – Praise Chapel Al Qusiya, Egypt
Today I went to minister at the remote village again, there was no transportation available so, I walked. The Lord gave me a good opportunity to preach the Gospel there, about 10 of them accepted Jesus as Lord and savior! Praise and Glory to our Lord Jesus!
These are the first two couples who accepted salvation they have a passion to grow in Christ!
Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? It’s a question; not a call to forget or put the past out of mind.
To be sure, there are elements and events that, “need be shoved behind.” But not the people. That is, those who’ve by acquaintance with us, both positive and negative, have helped to shape our lives. Without them, without their influence upon us, again, both positive and negative, who would we be?
This year, this has come home to me as never before as I reflect upon “Old Acquaintances.” There are so many friends and associates who are now gone, passed from this life over the last three years. I feel the weight of their absence, all of them, the good, the bad, the ugly. Yet despite this, they remain present by the influence they’ve had upon us.
If this year is to dawn brighter than the last, and I’ve prayed specifically that it will, not just for me, but for us all, it’s imperative, that we remember the people that accompanied us, in whose company we traveled upon our journey through this life; for they’ve helped define us, and make us the person we’ve become.
Like most of you, I grew up from earliest recall, hearing the New Year’s Anthem sung traditionally at the stroke of midnight upon New Year’s Eve; to note the passing of the old year and to celebrate the birth of the new one before us.
Such hope! We feel that somehow, against all odds, the coming year will be better than the last. That somehow we will all become “Better” this coming year.
Most of us, I think, resolve to make the effort in one way or another. I also think that each year we need this new beginning, this fresh start, with its opportunities and a chance to do better.
But … “Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind?”
The successes, the failures, the pain or the promise, the toils or the joys; those Auld Acquaintances that in great or small measure, by their influence, have shaped our lives.
As I cast a backward glance over my 75 years, I remember them all, those acquaintances, good and bad with everything in between; I find myself grateful for everyone of them. For they’re all a part of me, of who I am, the person I’ve been helped to become, not perfect, to be sure! But bettered.
For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
Romans 14:7
Ultimately, to make sense of life and all its relationships, all of them in total, from beginning to end, we must factor in GOD. How in His hands, All things, really do, work together for good, for those who love GOD and are called according to His purpose.
As we move forward into the bright promise of this New Year, let’s not forget Auld Lang Syne, our “Old Long Since,” those who were, and those who are; They’re all an integral part of who we are and whom we shall yet be.
Gratefully wishing each and everyone of you a Happy New Year.
