Beside North Sumatra, the next provinces which got and experienced God’s
visit, touching and pouring His love and power extraordinarily were North and Central
Sulawesi. A different kind of miracle happened in this city in 2004. NJE first crusade in
North Sulawesi took place in the city of Amurang which was attended by
approximately 2000-2500 persons. With the venue in an eye-catching public building
in the middle of the city the mobilization of people was strikingly successful. Many
Christian people from many congregations in the surrounding villages came by so
many trucks in such a way that their number was exceedingly passing the capacity of
the buildings and the surrounding streets. Trucks did come, not at once, but in many
stages. Unfortunately, after the building and its entouring garden were already fully
occupied there were still many trucks to come. Since trucks were parked along the
street surrounding the crusade place and the unloaded passengers could not enter
even the garden of the building they had to stay on the street or remain on the
trucks. Very soon, all the surrounding streets were full with people who wanted to
join the crusade. Many of the crusade attendants whose trucks were late to come to
the place could not enter at all and they had to remain on the trucks while hearing
the sermon until the crusade finished. The Head of PGPI (Persatuan Gereja-Geraja
