Yes, please.

You gotta read this, from one of my best friends, Dave Milroy. He partners with a pastor in Uganda named Aloysius. Freaking amazing. This dude Aloysius has stayed in his home multiple times. . Any doubt the Enemy would want to sow by reading 2nd- & 3rd-hand stories is obliterated by knowing people who tell stories like this.

My brothers ans sisters in Christ,
As I write this email I am still trying to examine some of the recents miracles which happened here in Gulu through our simple ministry programs...
Last Monday I was asked to go pray for someone. I agreed and asked several people to join me. Little did I know that the person in question had died already! Reaching the village, we found a group of 13 mourners who had spent two days at the home of the deceased woman. At this point, I introduced myself and the team to the mourners and asked the people to bring the sick person to us so that we could pray.
The mourners told me that that was impossible, as she'd been dead 3 days. I ordered the people to lift the person and bring her outside the hut because it too dark inside. Instead of leading a funeral service I read a scripture in James 5:6-13 and told the mourners that we love Jesus, who gave us power to pray and heal the sick. I challenged everyone to have faith in God and we started praising God in songs and later prayed.
At the end of a serious prayer I started calling the name of the woman in Jesus name and the woman started responding! There were mixed reactions at first from the villagers doubting wheather it was the dead woman, Esther, responding or someone else. I took another step of thanking God for the miracle and asked the woman to get up, I asked relatives to bring water and give the woman; the woman opened her mouth and drank! We glorified God as the woman begun to open her eyes for the first time after three days and she was able to talk with me. There was a spiritual drama, as a would-be funeral service turned into a deliverance and miracle service.
We left the home late around 9:00pm and I promised the people that the Lord was going completely heal the woman. Before we left the woman answered a salvation prayer and four other people responded to an altar call.
The following morning we recieved a report that the villagers did not go back to their homes all night trying to wait and prove whether the woman would died again or whether she was completely healed.
Thursday was our baptism class and after teachingg the class I briefly shared the testimony to the people around. Imediately two women who recieved Christ on that night of prayer stood up to confirm that the woman had died but she resurrected after our prayers. One said, "I have never seen such a miracle because we were going for burial shortly before the pastor arrived and instead prayed for the woman" Another woman said, "Even the local leader of our village had confirmed that the woman was dead."
Tthis Sunday the woman who was healed from death will be in our Church at Koro and we expect over 60 villagers and the local leader to come and share this testimony and miracle.
Some of the moving stories around this miracle are: how the woman managed to stand up, pick up a basin, and bathe herself (this was shortly after we left). Then she woke the next morning and did her domestic work while the people who had come for her burial were monitoring her steps.
Esther also shared her spiritual nightmare to the relatives and how she managed to escape from the devil.....
