Katerina

Triple blessings by after years of pain and waiting.

I had severe back pains for at least 5 years. At the age of 18 years it all started when I contracted viral meningitis. It started when the epidural injection I was given on my back was not inserted in the right spot. From then on my back has given me a lot of pain. There were times when I would bend and not be able to straighten up. I had been ministered to in the past for my healing but it did not take place instantly.' As for Katerina healing has been a process for her and she kept on asking for ministry for her back. It was not until she came for the last revival and healing meeting that she felt her back has been healed and she does not have any more pain in her back which she is so grateful for. As she walked up the platform to share her testimony she was totally healed. The pain she had for five years is gone.
