Ausi L. with Christiane
Ausi L. is a young Basotho whose brother regularly comes to church. So she had a Sunday with him. Already during the service we could somehow see that something was not quite right. She didn't sing along, she just looked at the floor and cried.
At the end of the service we offer to pray with and for the people. Then she came forward and asked for prayer. The doctors diagnosed her with breast cancer on both sides. The following Monday she was admitted to the hospital for breast removal. Since Ausi I. is not yet married, this operation would have a particularly serious impact on her future. She probably wouldn't find a husband with such a stigma.
So we prayed for her for a relatively long time and asked again and again if she had already felt a change. After about 45 minutes she said that "something warm had passed through her". We thanked God for the healing and trusted that she was now healed.
The following Monday, Ausi went to the hospital. The surgery preparations went as usual. As a standard procedure a mammography (Rontgen image) was taken again to avoid confusion. The doctor was very upset and angry after looking through the photos, because she had obviously been brought the wrong person. Ausi L. asserted that she was the right person. Also the blood test did not show an increased number of white blood cells later on.
Since then Ausi L. has told everyone how God healed her. And now she comes to the service only in festive clothes. She says she now only wants to be beautiful for God who saved her.
