The First International Crusades.
The Friendship Mission Trips in India.
In the Second Period, NJE was brought, led and introduced by God to foreign
evangelical services outside of Indonesia for the first time. Beside the friendship
mission trips to some neighbouring countries such as Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand
some visits had already done in India, New Zealand dan Republic of Fiji. The friendship
mission trips to northern part of India such as to cities like Chandigarh, Ludiana and
Amritsar had been arranged in cooperation with Rev. Sudhakaran in the year 2010 dan
2011. The first team who went to North India consisted of Ev. Ir. Andreas Hartanto S.Si,
M.Si, Ev.Dr. Benny Gozali dan Ps. Timotius Manik S.Th. While the second team which
went back to India consisted of Ev. Andreas H, two other NJE members and the late
Pastor Cryspus J. from Singapore. The third trip to India was made to South-West India
in the cities of Chandra Pur and Nag Pur which were several hours driving from
Mumbai. The crusades had been arranged in conjunction and cooperation with Ev. DR.
Sandy Haverfield and Ps. Bobby, from the cities Auckland, New Zealand and Nag Pur,
India. The joined crusades with DR. Haverfield continued to other countries such as
Auckland, New Zealand dan Republic of Fiji, in the Pasific Ocean, approximately 3-hour
flying from Auckland. NJE also contributed significantly in the mission trip of Ps. T.
Manik to USA in the context of friendship mission services to some churches in the
states of New Jersey and Oklahoma etc.
The first friendship mission trip to India took place in December 2007. It was
really impressive for the crusade in Ludhiana which was performed at the Bible
Seminary of Indian Pentacostal Church - IPC, and attended by circa 400 people, with
most of them were youth people and students. At the moment the Words of God was
completely preached by Ev. Andreas Hartanto and the altar call was conducted, by
surprise, almost all of the attendants (except the crusade committee) stood up
simultaneously and walked in a row to the stage to receive the touching and annointing
of Holy Spirit. Without a special command they made some queus, walked row by row,
and got the head touching quickly. The preacher just had to stand up and raise both
hands straight forward and the rowed people walked under his hands, stopped
momentarily to get the touching and moved again in a row to go back to their seats. It
lasted like this until the last person got the anointing. Afterwards the white, thick fog
came in and covered the whole area around the location of the Bible Seminary with
the sight distance of only 2-3 meters. NJE team consisted of Andreas Hartanto, T.
Manik, Benny Gozali and the local pastor Sudhakaran from Chandigarh.
