In a gallant and joyful show of gratitude for the crusade held in Argentina by the Synagogue Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) along with its landmark charity programme for the “poorest of the poor” in the country, Pastor Evelyn Joshua has been given multiple honours and awards by the government authorities in Argentina.
The various government bodies officially recognized the Crusade as an event of public interest.
Pastor Joshua received the “Key of the City of Resistencia in CHACO Province” from the Mayor of the City, Abelardo Nokckich. The “key” makes her the first among equals, a distinguished personality and very important “citizen” of the Argentine City.
Other awards are: from the President of the Chamber of Deputies of the Province of CHACO, Mrs. Carmen Delgado Britto in recognition of the Crusade as “a special event and a great thing for the province by law” and that by the Governor of the province Mr. Leandro Zdero.
Accepting the Awards, Evelyn Joshua who was visibly surprised by the honours, expressed gratitude to the nation and the Awarders.
“God commands that we should be here to demonstrate His love physically and spiritually.
“I dedicate these Awards to the Christians in Argentina who are striving and yearning to be like our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. That you may continue to grow in faith, spirit and words of God. I thank the Argentine government and all the various authorities that considered me fit for the awards.”
She prayed for a glorious turn around and God’s blessings for the land.
Major dignitaries at the event included: the Provincial Deputy, Mr. Paola Beneitez, The Minister of Justice, Labour and Human Rights Mr. Jorge Gomez, Director of Religious Affairs for the Province, Mr. Pedro Garcia and Director of Religious Affairs for the municipality of Resistencia, Mr. Javier Pinero.
The two-day Crusade was a water shed in the Christians’ experience in Argentina.
Apart from rejuvenating and invigorating the early Apostolic age revival in a country where Christianity was gradually becoming a mere social gathering, Evelyn Joshua Crusade made the physiognomy of Christianity real with the avalanche of miracles, healings, deliverances, blessings and salvation of several human souls happening simultaneously and practically during the Crusade.
