JOZI Rocks!!
The final session of an amazing all-day Passion JoBurg ended about an hour ago and my ears are still ringing and my heart is really full. What can I say, Passion loves Africa, and the thought that we came here today with a tidal wave of Indonesian love behind us is quite humbling. Jakarta, your thoughts and prayers lifted us to places we could not have gone without you, so from our Passion team and the 6000 people who filled the world’s longest hall at “The Gallagher” today–THANK YOU!
Honestly, I’m not sure I can sum up today in a simple blog post, but let’s just say from 10AM, when “Hello JoBurg” hit the screens, it was on, and things just kept building right through to the end. And all day long the cross was huge, and the belief that this beautiful nation and it’s people are on the brink of something large, holding in their hands the hope of a nation that very well might be the hope of a continent, fueled our worship.
FEE absolutely blew up the place and the Tomlin crew were, as always-amazing! But this day belonged to a much more massive name and was all about and totally for the fame of Jesus in SA and the world. As the pic shows, Do Something Now was happening here, worship and justice joined, as 2300 blankets were provided for those in need in the Johannesburg area. That was a cool thing and an encouragement for you guys coming to SOLD OUT Cape Town next week to bring one from home for the needy of your city as well.
JoBurg, it’s your turn to pray and keep the wave going around the world. I forgot to mention, but on the inside of your wrist band-thing it says Passion Cape Town, and it would be really sweet if you’d turn yours inside out and keep it on until next Wednesday as a reminder to pray for what God has for us that night.
God is alive in SA and raising up a beautiful generation of God-lovers in this nation. It’s real. It’s His grace. It’s what God is doing. And it’s an awesome thing. We have seen their faces, heard their prayers, felt their love and sensed that they are poised to take their place in this unstoppable Church Jesus is building here and around the globe. And we are with them, and all of you who want to live to make Jesus famous in this generation!
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory, take my life and let it be Yours!”

Since i saw the One day live dvd for the first time i have dreamed of a Passion Event here in SA, and man was today a dream come true beyond expectations!!! All I can do is give glory and honor to God for the power of the cross and for His GRACE written over my life!!! Thank you guys for an awesome day of worshiping and reconnecting with the heart of God!!
I have been following and praying for the world tour thus far, and my inside out bracelet will definitely stay on till Wednesday to keep praying for Cape Town’s event. May the Glory of God go before you guys and prepare the way for what He has planned for the rest of the journey!!
August 9th, 2008 at 5:39 PM
STUFFED UP HECTIC!!!!!!

From Chris to Fee to Louie all of them were tight, powerful, and all round BRILLIANT.
Can’t wait for next time round, Cape Town your in for a MASSIVE WAVE of GOD!!!!!!!!
peace out
August 9th, 2008 at 5:44 PM
Great to hear how God moved in JoBurg today…..praying that the city, nation and continent will see the ripples of God’s grace, reaching far and beyond our wildest imagination. Thanks for the update, Louie. Praying for Cape Town next!!
Look forward to reading SA’s comments…… :)
August 9th, 2008 at 5:45 PM
To the Passion Team .. We love you guys !! Thank you for blessing us tonight… it was awesome!!! All for JESUS and all for HIS glory !!!
August 9th, 2008 at 5:45 PM
WOW!
Thanks team for an amazing experience!
It was so stunning to be with a whole group of other young guys and be able to go “crazy” for God and know it was ok, and to also then know its ok to keep it together too!
What hit home for me was about rededicating your life to Christ vs. surrender. Its been a huge weight for me, and tonight just gave it a better perspective.
As I said- WOW! It was a life changing night for a lot of us, which I hope will let us shine into our city and change this land for God.
Thanks again, I hope everyone gets some well deserved sleep over the next days, that our screaming doesnt ring in your ears and that the move to Cape Town is easy!
GB and thanks again

August 9th, 2008 at 5:47 PM
I just arrived home, after 12 hours of worshiping the one and only God! Thanks Louie for reminding us how AWESOME our God is! The light of God is alive in our city and this is the country for change! The only thing that can keep God from saving this country, is our disbelieve! Today I realised, again, that God can bring change that God can heal and that He is the reason for our being! I truly believe that He can work His magic in SA and imagine what could happen if 6000 believers believe in the same thing…! Thank you Lord for Your grace! You give without receiving! I want this world to know that God lives, His fire is unstoppable and its taking over this nation!
May all my prayers be with Cape Town! Go on Mother City of SA, put a smile on Gods face, cause I’m sure he’s smiling as He is looking at His beautiful from out of Heaven! Our Jesus concord the grave!
Thanks again Louie and team
God bless
August 9th, 2008 at 5:48 PM

I only recently surrendered my life to Jesus and what I experienced tonight will change my life forever! Thank you Passion! You guys are really doing amazing work.
PRAISE TO GOD!!!! Thank you for showing me how great our country is.
August 9th, 2008 at 5:53 PM
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Wat an amazing, mind-blowing, indescribable experience! Truely a passion conference! The rival has begun and I am so inspired and filled after today! I think I’m overflowing with HIS

“The hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit and those who worship him, must worship in spirit and in truth” John 4 v 23 – 24
We are the generation that claims RSA for Christ!!
August 9th, 2008 at 5:55 PM
All of Africa praises God that you took up his banner and that he sent you to visit us, to bring his message so far from the comfort of your own beds.
All praise, honour and glory be to God. My prayer is that every single “Ashley” is turned into “Fruitcakes”, and that God will use all of us “nutters” to get it done.
Thank you to all the Passion team for an awesome worship event that put the Glory of God up as high as us mere humans can get it. GLORY TO GOD FOREVER
August 9th, 2008 at 5:56 PM
Ek dink die hele 6000 mense vat vanaand da was sal met my saam stem die hele dag was INDESCRIBIBLE!! There is no one like our GOD…
Die worship was iets uit ‘n ander wereld, dit het nog noit so “real” gevoel om die Here se naam so Groot te maak soos wat ons vanaand gedoen het nie. Mag Kaapstad die genade van God woensdag voel nes ons vandag gedoen het. Danki vi almal wat vandag moontlik gemaak het en spesifiek vir ons Almagtige Vader. Amen
August 9th, 2008 at 5:58 PM
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Wat an amazing, mind-blowing, indescribable experience! Truely a passion conference! The rival has begun and I am so inspired and filled after today! I think I’m overflowing with HIS spirit at the moment! Its all about HIM!!!! Just to see all these young people like me pray, cry and worship…..ohm damn, wow!!! Thank you Louie, Chris, Fee and every one at this event! Amazing! Great how God works! HIS grace is enough!!!!!!!! Praise HIS Holy Name!!!!!!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:01 PM
I cannot thank you guys enough for coming here. Today was an answer to a prayer I wasn’t sure God was going to answer in the near future. We came as a group from Pretoria and it became obvious during the trip to Jozi that the devil wasn’t too keen on us going to Passion (broken car, miraculous escape from accident). I can see now why. God reached me and my friends in new ways and places I didn’t know existed in my spiritual being. Cape Town we Pray for you guys, Louie and the Bands and everyone else involved, we’re praying for you too.
Keep it up and be blessed and a blessing.
August 9th, 2008 at 6:01 PM
WoW!
Once again! ;)
Looks like Joberg was amazing!!! :D
God is so Awesome and He sure made this world a place of beauty!
Every city Passion has been to has the most beautiful people in them (that is outward and it sure looks like inward as well!!!) God’s beauty is shining on each and every face!!!
Our Awesome God does do “all” things well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
Once again,
Thanks so much for the update!
With Much Love and Many Prayers!
God Bless :)
P.S. Can’t wait for the next podcast! :)

August 9th, 2008 at 6:07 PM
God is so HUGE and so amazing and Jesus is the highest name we will ever have the privilege of singing about and we just got to do it for 12 hours! I am so humbled by grace, even though I know about it, sung about and even spoken to others about it before, I was once again brought to my knees at how truly amazing God’s grace and love for us actually is. South Africa and the world is in for a revival with our generation rising up to take its place for Jesus’ fame and God’s glory. How truly incredibly awesome it is that I along with the 6000 people there tonight get to stand in the front lines for God, the hope of Africa rests in us SA, through Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Thank You so so very very much to everyone who contributed to today!! Passion.. wow! Just imagine how many lives will be touched by what went down in JHB today! Thank you
August 9th, 2008 at 6:08 PM
Oh, can you hear it?
It’s the song of the redeemed
The pursuit of passion for the One who set us free
Oh can you hear it?
We’re crying out for more
So listen to our song
It’s turning into a holy roar
A holy roar!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:08 PM
Two words…”Yes Lord!”
Praying for my home town CPT…answer the call guys

August 9th, 2008 at 6:10 PM
What an awesome experience to volenteer today. Giving is the best way of receiving. Today lit my fire Jesus again. To all the people behind the scenes… Thank you. How Great is our God ;)
August 9th, 2008 at 6:10 PM
THIS IS CRAZY! I just posted on the other wall and then it suddenly hit me that Jo-Burg had already wrapped up, so I got back on and here is the post! That’s time differences for you. Anyway, how incredibly awesome to see in rapid fire how God is moving all over this world… MAY HIS KINGDOM COME!
You all in SA are in my heart and prayers!
In Him,
Christis Joy
P.S. Now I can go listen to the Podcast from Asia (I am soo behind ;).

Hey Louie and the team
We were volunteers today and just want to say thank you for the awesome privilege to be able to share in the good work that you guys are doing amongst the students.
Thank you for your faithfulness and obedience as servants in God’s plan – so that we can all learn, benefit and grow in Christ.
onemillioncan.com … as this million can so the people of SA will continue to be the hope of Africa.
Praise God that He is our God and we are His people!!!!
from the fruitcakes! xxxxx
August 9th, 2008 at 6:14 PM
What a mind blowing event! Seeing over 6000 people praising our Lord in one place is a real sight for sore eyes and hearts!
Thank you to the ENTIRE Passion Team for your obedience to His call!
Louie,
your messages cut straight through all the junk and hit a spot in my heart that make His word come alive and real. I have never had a real rolemodel in my life, but I can safely say that you became one for me today. Not because you speak well, or give awesome sermons, but there is a humility in you that is inspiring beyond measure. You give the glory straight bach to Jesus, which quite frankly no worldly role models do!
Big ups to you all!
Jesus IS alive and yes we belong to HIM!
All God’s wonderful blessings
Nino
August 9th, 2008 at 6:17 PM
Passion was a power packed presentation of God’s grace! Radical, Moving, Spectacular are but some words that can try and explain the grace of our Wonderful God! All Glory and Praise goes to our King! IT’S TIME FOR OUR GENERATION TO MAKE JESUS FAMOUS!!!

August 9th, 2008 at 6:33 PM
Woah tonight was off the chain, it was loud and passionate, i get the name now, the bands were both awesome not to mention the word, it hits you like a brick blown out a cannon man
Our prays are out to CT and the rest of the tour stops as well as those out there the blankets are going towards, God will always provide and he’ll always be there
P.S… Fruitcake for Christ baby, its your move now !!!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:35 PM
Wow, today was so amazing!
Thanks you guys for coming to Jozi and sharing this wonderful message with us, it really touched our hearts and especially Ashley’s story… It reminds me of the story of the woman who brought a flask filled with precious perfume and poured it out on Jesus head… Jesus said:”wherever this good news is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will be told also, in memory of her.” Wow girl, your story are bringing glory to our Lord, all over the world everywhere it is told! May all of our lifes be like that, whether in living or dying, that it can be said while we lived we lived such a life that brought glory to God!
Cape Town hold onto your seats cause this wave is going to hit hard, we are praying for you guys!
Blessings.

August 9th, 2008 at 6:35 PM
guys
i just want to thank God for What you guys are doing for the youth of the world God is really using you guys in a “mighty to save way” and all glory to God.
God is really shaking this new generation of south – Africa and we thank you guys for being part of it!
Praise God!!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:37 PM
“Praise the Lord, all you nations;
extol him, all you peoples.
For great is his love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord.” Psalm 117
We were as one in worship tonight and I am certain that angels rejoiced with us as hearts and minds were reached by Jesus through the Passion event.
Thank you to everyone who made it happen, your faithfulness is sure to be rewarded in heaven.
The words of Chris Tomlin’s song, “God of this City” really struck a chord with me tonight;
“For greater things
Have yet to come
And greater things
Are still to be done in this city”
We were born for such a time and place as this, let us make Jesus famous in our city, in our country and throughout the world, for as we sang tonight, “He is mighty to save.”
I will be praying for everyone at the Cape Town event.
May the spirit of our Lord be with you all.

August 9th, 2008 at 6:37 PM
WOW! Thank you for serving, giving and sharing your passion for God with us in Jo’burg! The time spent together with the Passion team was awesome and blessed. God is huge and yet He cares about the small, sincere parts of our lives that we bring in worship before Him – through the teaching and songs at the Passion tour event there were ‘magnifyer’ moments where I realized how God sees what I do and who I am before Him. All the Glory, all the honour and all the praise to God almighty! For His glory; my life for God’s glory. Where He calls or send I shall go. Thank you for your encouragement and the witness you bear by your lives.
I am praying for you and the rest of the tour. (Cape Town included.)
Blessings in abundance in Jesus.
Amjé.
August 9th, 2008 at 6:38 PM
From The Mighty Men’s conference, to this passion tour, we can clearly see that God is in Africa.
Joburg: City of Gold, centre of the Rainbow Nation. Heart of Africa. For you I have 2 words: “Yebo Nkosi”
Thanks to the Passion crew for all the hard work that went into delivering the most awesome event that many of us have ever experienced. May your ministry grow deeper and more fruitful with each passing moment.

Hi to Louie and the whole passion team!!!!
I totally loved the show! The only problem I have now is to figure out how to explain what happened today to my friends…
Anyway, thanks for the most amazing day of my life!!! Our God is Amazing and indescribable!!!!
And a big thanks to Chris Tomlin and FEE for the Awesome Praise and Worship.
I will be praying for your show in Cape Town on Wednesday.
Today I said YES LORD!!! Let’s make Jesus famous!!!
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory, take my life and let it be Yours!”
I wish you all of God’s LOVE an GRACE!!!
Cheers!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:44 PM
Amen to all the response from above!

Let’s lift up the name of Jesus in our generation!
Praying for you as you embark to your last stop on leg 2 of the World Tour in Cape Town! Many Blessings!

Facebook -268 generation south-africa group! lets keep this going!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:50 PM
“Have you heard of facebook” he asks…pfff Louie you rascal you ;)
August 9th, 2008 at 6:51 PM
WOW!, Breath-taking, ministry in its truest form=lives SOLD FOR JESUS and for His Glory and His fame in this generation. I was remained of a vision I had on the picture of Heaven composed of people from every Nation and Tribe, gathered in one place to give glory and honor to this King over ALL-JESUS. May our generation leave a mark in History as those that were not only Hearers of God’s Word but Doers of It, bringing His Kingdom through the lives we live and making them count for eternity.
With all that said….THANK YOU LOUIE, CHRIS, FEE and the team for pulling this whole event together to re-ignite the passion in us to keep going… holding fast till the end! And to my Brothers and sisters “Big-ups” for coming through- to all my UJ People and Wits Buddies…Yeah, Yeah!
August 9th, 2008 at 6:54 PM
What an amazing day! Our ears are still ringing!! What a priviledge to have been a part of passion Johannesburg 2008! What a priviledge to be proudly South African and to belong to Jesus!
God is so great and as the lyrics go “there is still great things to be done in this city” we cannot wait to be the pioneers of it!
We believe that we have a climate of hope, a currency of faith an we live in peace!
Our lives were greatly impacted by this day and all that happened! Cape Town… Brace yourselves!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 7:04 PM
AMAZING GRACE!!!!!Those two words sum up the experience I had tonight at PASSION-JOZI.
Two important verses the first one Africa needs to know and believe as a continent
1) Isaiah 43 v18-21, and for everyone else reading
2) 2Corinth 5 v 21
MAXIMUM love, dina.
August 9th, 2008 at 7:04 PM
Shoo! I can’t believe that I’m still up all because I cannot get over the awesome experience I had today at Passion Jo-burg.
I got there just realising a lot of my sin and after a lot of ’should I go or shouldn’t I go… have a test on Monday…’, I’m glad that I made the choice of going and I know that many had that decision to make. Oh yes!
I’m taken by all the experience but my greatest prayer for all is that I hope the event was not just a spiritual high experience. Instead I hope people continue to live for the glory of God in the “jungle” we live in. May we be relevent to the “Ashlys” in our lives, may we not be afraid to be the “Fruit cakes” as we are making a difference even when it does not show immediately or the way we expect it to. The grace of God is sufficient for all.
Oh my goodness! I just want to go on and on but I would not finish. May all be compelled by Christ’s love because you were convinced by the promises, reminders or realisations.
Cape Town get ready!!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 7:06 PM
woooooooooooooow
OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD!!
INCREDIBLE!!
PRAISE THE LORD!
August 9th, 2008 at 7:11 PM
I often say silly things without focussing on the real big issues (even to they are there in my mind, just not in the fore) and come across as ignorant… but I’m not, I think, so forgive me.
anyway… I didn’t know nothing about nothing. It just so happened that sometime very early on This year Carol showed us the Dvd of Louie (Love that guys energy on stage… he’s not trying at all. like he was meant to be there telling us so passionately about the one thing that matters the most… JESUS… CHRIST). Right, so I was saying about the Dvd I saw of Louie early in the year was in Church (Courtesy to Pastor Carol, of His People Wits universty) and you were talking about astronomy and related it to God and his wonderful his creation is… Iwas truely touched like you can’t belive! And tonight when you came through and was there I cried at the end when “Indecribable – Amazing God” was played. you opend up my through out, and answered alot of my questions. I’m one of those people, who commited, recommitted and recommitted after that… and after that, and I was nearing a stage where I was losing hope in myself. Now Iknow to have faith in Jesus, not me… only he can fix me (YHO, YHO, YHO!… AM i MESSED UP, or rather messing up!) but yeah, it’s a process, I’ll get there!
anyway thank you, sorry for writing such a long letter/ comment!
laterz!
Thank you so much ya’ll!

‘take my life and let it be, all for you and for your glory, take my like and let it be yours’.
Being a christian doesn’t make me a better person than any other. I was dead but God brought me to life and the life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ who loved me to help me as a dead person.
I dont want to live a 5 second life but one of eternity… Reminder to all.
Its amazing how God brings nations together all for HIS glory.
August 9th, 2008 at 7:43 PM
Thanx for an AMAZING day!!!
I believe that it was a wonderful message that got thru to a lot of people.
Blessings with the rest of the tour.
ALL the PRAISE to our KING!!!!
August 9th, 2008 at 7:50 PM
So good to hear the wonderful praises of this event….Nehemiah 41: “When Sanballat heard that we were rebuilding the wall, he became angry and was greatly incensed. He ridiculed the Jews, 2 and in the presence of his associates and the army of Samaria , he said, “What are those feeble Jews doing? Will they restore their wall? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a day? Can they bring the stones back to life from those heaps of rubble-burned as they are?” 4 Hear us, O our God, for we are despised. . . . 6 So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart.TODAY is about our calling when we are half way there — when the wall of our ministry and life is half built. Almost every song speaks in some way to this crossroads, the place where we could turn back from exhaustion or discouragement from the taunts of our enemies, or continue in the grace and strength of God. It’s at this junction that God calls us to be worshipping warriors, not fighting battles as the world does, but in purity as sons and daughters of the Most High. Our Faithful Father is inviting us to dream again, even though some of our dreams have died. In light of that, we make the Joshua choice today and say “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!” We don’t make this choice just for our lives, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THOSE GENERATIONS TO COME, AND TO LINK UP WITH THE GENERATIONS WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE US!”(Brian Doerksen, Worship Leader)~~marye, atlanta, ga
August 9th, 2008 at 7:56 PM

Woke up this morning after 12hours solidly with Jesus, and in His presence, an dI’m so excited to go to church today and carry that passion over to my community!!
Isn’t this all that South Africa needs? I love my coutry and pray that God will turn SA around to one of the most beautiful places in the world!
Thank you, passion, for including us, South Africans, into your world tour! My “match” was lit up yesterday at Gallagher Estate… never to be forgotten or blown out!!
August 10th, 2008 at 1:24 AM
Yes Lord!!
I only heard about Passion from a couple of friends about a week before, ond WOW I’m glad I put previous plans aside and spent the day with GOD! The whole day was absolutely amazing with the presence of God moving in the hearts of everyone there.
The message was so simple yet so compelling, I praise God for the way that He speaks though His servants.
One of my prayers is that as we all start this brand new day we will remember God’s Glory and shine for Him, now and for the rest of our lives. Lives that would not have a purpose were it not for GOD!!
You are amazing Lord and I love you and want to live my life for you!
God bless JOZI!

Passion was absolutely FANTASTIC! The worship was literally indescribable and the messages re-affirmed so many things and opened my eyes to so many others. God is moving in South Africa.
Thanks to everyone that was involved in bringing it to Johannesburg. It was awesome!
“YES LORD…”

Let Jesus work miracles so that this generation will make a huge impact!!
August 10th, 2008 at 2:11 AM
My dearest brothers and sisters of Passion,
Can one be speechless with awe and yet at the same time feel ready to explode with words telling of and praising our God for His greatness, glory and love? I am!
I do and will always count Passion Jo’burg as one of the greatest days of my life. Paul may have been taken up into heaven during his life where he saw indescribable things, but I got to go to Passion and I’m not complaining! God blazed His glory into my heart yesterday and gave me an experience of His awesomeness that set me on fire for Him and for the fame of Jesus like I have never been.
I had joined the 268 Generation a few years ago, but then was rocked my a series of life changing storms. Although my love for God remained, I never felt the sold-out fire blaze in my heart as strong as it had before the storms. Yesterday at Passion God revived the passion for Him that I had those years ago and gave me an even greater passion, one that will blaze on through both joy and pain!
To Louie and everyone of the team, I love you and my heart is knitted together with yours. I will carry you in my heart and prayers always. Thank you with all I am! I pray that God will allow our paths to cross again many more times in this life.
Louie, if you read this, please get my email off the blog register and send me an email. God has placed an idea in my heart that I hope will see Passion grow in its international influence for the fame of Jesus. It may be a lone shot to get you to contact me this way, but if God’s great enough to handle that!
Mike, even though I’ve never met you, because of the story of your daughter and what Jesus has done in my life, I can truly say that I love you and will be praying for you.
The words “Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God forever…” echo through my soul.
Glory to God! Praise His name! May the fame of Jesus spread like a wild-fire from our lives!
August 10th, 2008 at 2:18 AM
Sorry for the type-os!
August 10th, 2008 at 2:19 AM
Life changing!!!!! WOW! Amazing!!
“And my God will meet all your needs according to his riches in Christ Jesus”
Phil. 4:19
Thank You Passion for coming to our city Jo’burg!!
Thank You Jesus for loving me JUST THE WAY I AM!!!!!!
Glory to God!!
August 10th, 2008 at 2:20 AM

Lord, I just want to thank you for all the change that you have brought to people’s lives and the change that is still to come. You are the driver to all of this. I am so encouraged by all the blogs that I have been reading this morning. I’m thankful for all the prayers from Indonesia and I pray for Cape Town too. They dont know what is coming for them… How great is OUR God indeed – every nation… I trully am dying to share about Jesus at the same time being relevent. Its all about You Lord and Your glory.
I pray for the team and bands too in all the preparations and the rest of the tour… Lives are changing even today.
Amen
August 10th, 2008 at 2:48 AM

6000 people yesterday declared the Glorious Jesus as our God with all our hearts.
Thanks to the entire Passion team on tour and back in Atlanta not to forget the many SA volunteers and the local team for an amazing day. We praise God for the blessing that he has poured out on us through you.
Jakarta, thanks for your prayers, Cape Town get ready for something BIG.
August 10th, 2008 at 2:57 AM

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cape Town: “It’s coming, and it is BIG!!!!!”
August 10th, 2008 at 3:03 AM
WOW WOW WOW
It’s not about Louis, it’s about GOD! It’s not about the band, it’s about Jesus! For about 6000 people to get that at once is absolutely amazing.
Thank you so much Passion team for all your work and love and passion. AND thank you DAD, for being so amazing, amazing, amazing and making all this happen…it’s for YOU!
I really learnt a lot about myself and about how it’s important to be “in my right mind” for the sake of others even when I’m bursting with the amzing realization of grace. It’s not that easy to be a “normal fruitcake”!
We are truely living in exciting times in SA right now. Christians are surrendering fully to Christ and claiming this nation for Him. “Loftus for Jesus” is also still fresh in my mind…may these meetings together be the fuel for building the “greater things that are yet to come”!
Cape Town…many of us here in Gauteng know some of you that will be there on Wednesday. We pray that the Lord will really meet you where you’re at and that you can be set on fire for him and his word and burst to share it with the student around you who “have no clue”!
OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:05 AM
WOW!!!!! I was in such awe of God last night Thank you!!!
God has been taking me on a journey over the last month or so and yesturday was really a HUGE turning point in my life.
All I can say is “Glory to God
Glory to God
Glory to God, Forever”
Not sure if I’ve got my bow just yet God still has alot of work to do but I am definately willing A my knot is made =o)
Thank you Passion for allowing God to shine His light through you!
Get ready CT God is going to deliver in a big way
God bless =o)
August 10th, 2008 at 3:06 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 3:20 AM
Ah my Jesus!
I am sure that everyone has said what I am about t say, but I was REALLY blessed yesterday!!!!!!!!!!
I have been in Joburg for a month now; I come from Cape Town and the company I work for has sent me here on training. This place has been a MASSIVE place of groth for me, and although I was really sceptical about coming here God has changed my mindset unbelievably.
I was driven into the city from Potchefstroom on Friday afternoon and as I saw the city appear in the horizon, I just BURST into tears and atrated speaking in a tongue I have never heard or spoken before. I was driving and crying my eyes out! I could not understand what was going on and asked ABBA, and he said he is giving me a love for Joburg; The same love I have fr my Cape Town; and that it is spreading to a deep love for Africa.
Loiue, I was honoured to hear the messages you brought yessterday. The Holy Sprirt was convicting me of my light, my lack of shining in the dark .To take his light, the ministry of reconciliation, to the los and dead world! God spoke to me about in January before I started working for the company who prodcues SA’s electricity… (You all know who that is…)
Thank you, and again thank you, for living for Him. ALL for him.
I read your blog on Thursday, the one you ended, All for Jesus.
That hit me squarely in the chest.
i have my ticket… I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU IN MY HOME TOWN ON WEDNESDAY… passion cape town here we come. Joburg is praying Cape Town!!!!!
God bless! For his fame. Shining for his glory!
Rob
August 10th, 2008 at 3:20 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 3:39 AM
Had really an awesome day yesterday!
Just want to say thanks to the 268 Team, you guy`s are a blessing.
I trust the Lord for revival in our city and nation, knowing that His love will spread like a wild fire amongst the people.
Rise up, rise up for now is the time!
JESUS You are the love of my life!!!
-CAPETOWN- Praying for you
Psa 40:1 For the choir director: A psalm of David.
I waited patiently for the LORD to help me,
and he turned to me and heard my cry.
Psa 40:2 He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
Psa 40:3 He has given me a new song to sing,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see what he has done and be astounded.
They will put their trust in the LORD.
So may your lights shine bright in your CITY
Be Blessed.
August 10th, 2008 at 3:42 AM

Thank you Lord Jesus for the dedication of the Passion Team and I Pray that you guide them all on their journey in life.
We will all be praying for you Cape Town.
August 10th, 2008 at 3:43 AM
Passion is huge, really obeying what God commanded of us! To go out into all the world and make an impact for Christ!
A concept I’ve been struggling hit home after this conferrence!
I can do NOTHING on my own, I can only be like Christ if I have Christ’s fire burning inside of me! It is an awesome thing to realise that I am not living for myself but that my small 5 second flame is a part of a much greater fire!
Praying for Cape town, if one person gets the message there, it was worth it!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:48 AM
Wow Totally Awesome Event!
We Pray that Cape Town will experience God in the same way we did!
We’ll hold on to Col 3:17 : “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.”

WOW WOW WOW!
I really am just encouraged by your ministry!! I have been using ur DVD’s – indescibable, How great… Alive ect. like a religious fruitcake for the past year at my res and what an impact the Lord has had through me.
Thank you for obeying the great commission and for being an encouragement to me to continue in evangelising and reaching the lost.
Passion was awesome and I was so excited when I heard you were coming, you have been such a huge part of my ministry over the past year.
Love in Christ
August 10th, 2008 at 3:50 AM
Thank you guys for obeying the Lord and bringing us the Passion Tour. It was an absolutely unbelievable experience. I am sooo inspired to make Jesus Famous in my life, in this City and all over the world!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:02 AM
All i can say is thank you, thank you and thank you. I was the kinda guy that once was totally in love with Jesus and then, as Louie said, my promise failed, and i was the one that drifted away. I then got addicted to pornography and i saw no way back. I tried to worship the way i did before, i tried to get back that feeling that i once felt, but i could not. Thanks to louie and the bands i got that feeling back. I now feel as though i have a family and even though the road ahead is full of temptations, i now feel as though i have a family of young people from all around the world that believe in me and are there for me. All i can say is what is sang:
I coming back to the heart of worship, and its all about YOU, its all about you JESUS!
Thanks again for helping me find myself and for making me understand that i can come as i am, no matter my past, no matter my problems, but come as i am to the Cross where my deby has been paid and my Savior waits for me with his arms open wide.
And i shall try as hard as i can to make others understand that they as well can come to the King as they are, just like i did:)
Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God FOREVER AND ALWAYS!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:02 AM
OH…MY…WORD!!!
What a day!!! I still hear the songs, and the crowds!!! And every now an then, I have this goofy smile that comes over me, just thinking back on how amazing yesterday was, and how amazing today and the rest of our lives in joburg are going to be.
I was more proud then ever to be a south african when as one voice we stood and praised the only name worth praising – and HE brought us together to show us just how powerful we can be, when we have HIM.
Thank you passion for comming to our beautiful country and leading us through an awesome day.
May your trip be as explosive as your love for GOD.
Bless you and may GOD keep you.
AMEN!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:04 AM
We are so humbled but all that has happened in one day!!!
First of all we want to thank Jesus for showing up and working in our hearts. Passion we love you so much, we love your ministry and your obiedience.
Thank you to Jakarta for praying for our day…seeing all those beautiful faces and knowing that in the spirit we are connected, your prayers were not in vain and you will be in our prayers as well.
It was a busy day but the messages were so inspiring and our hearts were touched. To Chris and FEE…your music is awesome, but we knowh its te fruits of your labour, you guys are seriously the coolest.
Thank you for touching the hearts of people our age. We really are at cross roads in our lives and knowing someone cares enough about our generation makes a big difference.
We love you passion and Cape town you are going to love Passion. We are praying for you and we know that Jesus is coming to the mother city. Blessings in everything.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:04 AM
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
We were so privilegded to have passion in our city!
Thanks to the whole passion team and all the awesome people in Indonesia who were praying for us!
I’m so excited to see how God uses this generation! This generation is going to make a serious mark in the history books!!!
“Take my life and let it be all for you and for your glory” is the trademark of this generation! “Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God FOREVER!!!!”
August 10th, 2008 at 4:05 AM
I’m so grateful that Passion came to S.A. And I mean – 2 stops in our country, what an honour!!! I absolutely loved the day in Jhb, even though I couldn’t be there for the entire event. It is just the most amazing thing when 6000 young ppl come together to praise 1 name: JESUS. How can we not make a difference in our country? Thanx to the entire Passion crew..and God bless!
PS: I absolutely luuurve Chris Tomlin’s music!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:06 AM
Man what a day, it was soo great to be surrounded by so many similarly minded people. This country needs people to step up and be heard and let their lives be seen to be different because of what compels them deep down inside- the Love of Christ, the treasure we have inside, the overflow of getting what the cross is all about. Cape town have a brilliant life changing wednesday, you guys will be in our prayers, and thanks to everyone who made this whole event possible, i hope the passion in all of us keeps on burning brighter and bigger everyday!
peace like a river
August 10th, 2008 at 4:08 AM
What awesome worship!!! What an awesome experience to hear the voices of 6000 thousand people worshipping God and hands raised as far as the eyes can see….
August 10th, 2008 at 4:09 AM

Woke up this morning with the songs we sung on my heart. Had an absolute blast yesterday – got drunk in the presence of God and His glory!! 2 Cor 4 sums it all up so beautifully. Thank you for your wonderful work, Passion team – I pray that God would continue to pour out His blessing on you and through you.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:19 AM
WOW WOW WOW!!!!
Finally you guys made it to South Africa (again) but this time for a full scale Passion event!
Like so many who posted comments so far, I can realy say: “I get it!”
It’s all about the cross, that’s it! Grace is for everyone! And if you ask God to make Him famous through your life, He’ll do it! No matter what!
I also have new hope that God can save my unsaved friends who has a hardened heart against God and accepting His grace. Keep praying and be real will get them there in the end, by the grace of God.
The words from “Mighty to save” really shook my world once again and made me realize how Big this God is that we serve and that our lives and songs, transcend time and generations.
God is really doing something in our country and we believe that greater things are yet to come for Jo’burg, Pretoria and the graeter Gauteng area.
Cape Town, get ready!!!! Stellenbosch, GAAN GROOT!!!!
Thank you Louie and the team for making God famous in our generation and making much of the cross of Jesus Christ
Praying for you, Cape Town and all the rest of the world tour.
To Christ be the glory!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:19 AM
Hey everyone.
I firstly just want to thank God for making the whole event possible and allowing us to be a part of it. IT was AWESOME. I realised through the fruitcake story that we can make a big difference in other peoples lives just by living like Jesus said we must. We can make a huge change in somebody’s life just by expressing our faith everyday, you don’t have to do something big, small things can also imact a person. Thanks to the whole passion team and to Louie Giglio. We are praying for Cape Town.And Chris Tomlin, you have the most beautiful and purest voice I have ever heard.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:22 AM
Passion JoBurg was one of the most amazing Jesus praising, glory giving and honour giving celebration events I’ve been to in my entire life!
The next one you must be sure to get a bigger hall, ‘coz if there are some people like me, that’s taking everyone they know to the next one, that place is gonna be much to small!
Will keep praying for CT to be lifted up in even a greater way than Joburg!
Blessings to All!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:22 AM
It’s a new day, with new chalenges, but after yesterday I’m ready for any obstackle that comes my wat. Tank you Father for showing me just once again hou HUGE your are. I love you with all my heart thanks FEE, Louie, Chris, and everyone who was part of the conference that changed the hearts of SA.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:25 AM
Hi Guys.
Yesterday totally ROCKED!!!
It was the most awesome experience ever!!!
It is still awesome to know that God loves us, and wants to be such a big part of our lives, even if we think we are not worthy!
GOD IS AWESOME!!!
My prayers are with you and the team for Cape town, I hope you will have as big an impact, if not greater, than that of last nght.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:26 AM

Totally unbelievable! Came conservative, worshiped with hands in pockets, at least until sometime after lunch and then I went wild, at least by my standards! Blessed be the name of the Lord! Hallelujah! What a God we serve!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:34 AM
WOW! That is all I can say… The whole day was absolutely amazing!!!
God was there among 6000 people and the worship was out of this world.
The story about Ashley touched and inspired me to live each day with significance. Thank you to Louie, Chris, Fee and the rest of the team for such a radical day!
Cape Town, Joburg is praying for you that you will experience God in a HUGE way and that you will find significance and live from now on with the miracle of grace that Christ died for us to have on the Cross.
God bless!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:40 AM
what a amazing day, Jesus’ name lifted high, hearts touched and lifes sure set on fire for His “Jesus’ fame”
we had a priviledge to volunteer, thank you passion for this oppertunity.
bumped shoulders with louie and did not realise, who it was at the time, have to shake his hand in heaven.
I asked God to glorify His name through my life, that my life will be all about Him.
His purpose, the greater purpose.
thank you passion
ps, ears still ringing
August 10th, 2008 at 4:41 AM
Dear God and Passion team.
I was part of the volunteer team and would like to start by thanking God that He gave the Passion team the willingingness to come to South Africa. To the Passion team…. Awesome stuff guys. So nice to see some e-mail friends face to face.
All I can say about Passion Jhb… It was breathtaking! South Africa is SOOOOO ready for a massive revival.
Hey Fee Band…. I was looking forward to seeing David but you guys Rocked the house man! I am in a way glad David and band could not make it because now SA found another awesome band to worship in the car, on our iPods with.
I have four words…… GLORY TO GOD FOREVER!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:42 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 4:44 AM
the other breath taking thing was seeing so many different races in one place praising God together……it made the verse for me so real, Colossians 3:11…there is no balck,white,asian,coloured,indian etc…we are God’s chosen people holy and dearly loved…..by the creator of the universe…..WOW
August 10th, 2008 at 4:46 AM
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory!!” Those words answer just about every life question ever asked. “Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory” There is the challenge, and THE answer!!
How GREAT is our God!!!!
6000+ people meant it yesterday – guys, lets mean it tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after…for the rest of our days! ALL GLORY TO OUR GOD!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:54 AM
Amazing Amazing Amazing Amazing!
I can not describe in words what an amazing feeling it was being there! God is definitely working in Sout Africa.
We must remember that being together with Christians it’s easy to praise and worship Jesus. In the real world where you are alone it is not so easy, it is then that you have to shine your light so bright that the people around you will see something different in you. May God be with every student and may the Holy Spirit lead you to where he wants to use you!
YES LORD!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:57 AM
I just want to thank you and God, so much for bringing the Passion Tour to South Africa. What an awesome opportunity! It has been my life’s dream and prayer to bring Christ focused, world class events like this to the youth and young adults of South Africa and God just makes it happen. How awesome He is!!! How awesome is the grace, love and mercy of Jesus or saviour!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:00 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 5:04 AM
WOW! WOW! WOW! Passion JHB was absolutely amazing. It was an experience i would never forget. Seeing so many people praising God for his greatness and praising Jesus for becoming our sin and forgiving us of our sins, setting us free to live a life for Him, was awesome.
Just wanted to say thank you to all that helped in making this experience such a memorable one. I enjoyed every moment of it and really felt more connected with God.
I also Pray that Cape Town will have an awesome time and that God will work wonders in their lives. God Bless all of Capetown.
AND GOD BLESS THE WHOLE OF AFRICA AND THE WORLD! :)
August 10th, 2008 at 5:06 AM
WOW!
Thanks for an amazing experience!!!
It was so stunning to see so many young students be able to go “crazy” for God and know it was ok, and to also then know its ok to keep it together too! When i was sitting there I saw an Army for God standing up, to make God famous in this world were living in!!
As I said- WOW! It was a life changing night for a lot of us, which I hope will let us shine into our city and change this land for God.
NOW GUYS!! we only have only until Wednesday to push this blog over a thousand!!
Love all you guys!! God bless!!

This is the morning after…Passion Johannesburg 2008.
I got up a while ago and as I am sitting here I am still in “the zone”- The worship and songs kept playing through my head the whole night while I was sleeping and they still are-Evidence of being and dancing in the River of God…
Louie,I am one of the crowd that bugged you about not being a student anymore but loving what passion stands for and plugging into it! Although I am not on campus anymore I live , work and play on the campus of life and there is a lot of Fruitcake work to be done.Ashley and Fruitcake’s life story encouraged me again: To keep up with my journal:-), not so it could be used in the same way as Ashley’s but simply to keep record of God’s awesome ways in my life and to build altars of His glory that shines out of my screwd-upness and brokeness.Secondly, although hard I must admit that there were many times in my life where I so badly wanted to bring accross the beauty and freedom of God’s truth that I sometimes treated people harshly with my words.I realised sometime ago and yesterday evening acutely again that I must have come across as really spiritually proud, uncaring and judgmental.I know that many have misunderstood my heart and I am so sad about the wasted opportunities to love. I am convinced again that I don’t want to look like a super fruitcake from outside by saying the right things the wrong way , but to rather saying less and be just a real fruitcake by showing a caring attitude.Thank you Louie for just being you and being real-that is what we need to combat pride and religious attitudes.
The cross of Jesus Christ-All that I want to say is:”Will I ever really know how much it cost to see my sin upon the cross”.The journey continues!
Thank you Passion team for loving God, being yourselves and showing both to the world.Thank you for having faith in Jesus and helping to awaken it in others all over the world.I share your passion and your dream to see this generation make God famous.
Cape Town-town of my heart,(Louie will remember us cheering wildly for you in the Jo;burg event)-I pray that you will open yourselves up to receive Jesus in pure honest revelation as the Son of God who died for you on the cross. “He can move mountains” – Table mountain and citizens be warned:-) Maties vir Jesus!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:07 AM
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
What an amazing day! Thank you Jesus for stirring IT up in my heart. I GET IT…
Im going out now and… MAKING GOD FAMOUS, TELLING HIS STORY, LIVING IN VICTORY, SHARING THE GOOD NEWS!!
Cape Town be ready and be blessed.
August 10th, 2008 at 5:11 AM
Oh man, that was the most awesome day ever (12 hours of praising our saviour), I give thanks to God for blessing me and the other 6000 people that were pouring their hearts out to Jesus.
God is moving in south africa, first Angus Bucken with his awesome revival and then Louie with the passion team.
It was an avening of praising the name of Jesus, and truly I have never said his name so many times in one day.
Blessings to all my brothers and sisters
“Yes Lord”
Glory Glory Glory!!!!!!!!

August 10th, 2008 at 5:23 AM
Man!!!
It’s the next morning and I woke up with sing sing sing still in my head and Glory to God and all the other songs that Chis and Fee sang. The worship at Passion Joburg yesterday was out of this world. It felt like I had a direct connection with God while I sang. Praise Him forever. The crowd was amaizing so full of life and enthusiastic. Wish I could describe it to people who weren’t there but I don’t have the words
Louis your talk changed my heart. I totally get grace now. I can’t believe how big it is and that it is for a ordinary girl like me too!!!!!! The thing that really hit me is the question are u making a diffrence? Ashley’s story hit home I will now not wake up another day without letting my light shine for the whole world to see.
Thank you to passion, keep on rocking the world so that all can know what I know today!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:23 AM
YES LORD!
Louie and all you guys on the Passion team- you guys rock. Thank you. Yesterday was awesome, such a privelege to be able to praise the One and Only name worth praising, to just go nuts and worship Jesus and celebrate Him because He is Worthy- to do that with you guys, and 6000 others! Wow:)
And such encouragement- God will do it for the Ashleigh’s in my life.
“take my life and let it be all for You and for Your Glory! take my life and let it be Yours!”
August 10th, 2008 at 5:25 AM
Thanks to the Passion team for pointing the way to the cross in the most incredible way. My life and, without doubt, the lives of all 6000 people there will truly never be the same and the impact will be felt in our great city.
Praying for Cape Town that they would experience the same and more.
Thanks again guys.
Sean.
August 10th, 2008 at 5:25 AM
Amazing event! Jesus’ name lifted up! Left with a renewed passion that “lost people matter to God” and the idea that we are to be a generation that brings “worship and JUSTICE” to our broken world!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:32 AM
Just like there isn’t enough words to explain how great our God is! There isn’t enough words to explain how great PASSION was last night! Just like Louie always says it blew me away! We had to make a 2 hour journey back home last night- and i just want to thank God for brining us home safe! Will pray that cape town be blessed! Make everything count for JESUS! God bless!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:33 AM
YES Lord!
YES Lord!
YES YES Lord!
(btw, why didn’t we sing that one?) hehehe
What was so Crazily Amazing is that this morning in church our reverend preached about exactly that! Love and trust the Lord with reckless abandon.
Psalm 37!!!!!!
And believe that He is Allmighty enough to turn this country around and show the world what beauty He has created in this nations people and the country that we live in!
Because…GREATER THINGS ARE STILL TO COME AND GREATER THINGS ARE STILL TO BE DONE IN THIS CITY (NATION AND CONTINENT)
Praying for CT and this nation and beautiful country!!
“Take my life and let it be all for you and for your glory”
And one of the lyrics really touched me personally…
“God knows the deepest of our hearts and He loves us all the same!”
He knows your deepest hidden secrets and sins, your deepest desires, and He still loves you like you’re white as snow!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:34 AM
And remember….PASSION isn’t(just) for the people who was there, it is ecspecially for those who wasn’t.
Wees vissers van mense en gaan red jou Ashley’s in die wereld
August 10th, 2008 at 5:36 AM
Thank you! that was an amazing day.
Let’s go out there and make Jesus famous!
’cause it’s all about Him!
Glory be to God forever!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:38 AM
Cape Town let us know how much us Joburg people gave…
August 10th, 2008 at 5:39 AM
Passion Joburg rocked so hard! I can’t stop myself sing sing singing! Chris Tomlin, Fee, I love you guys. It was so nice to see rockers second to nobody in the world who are there for one thing and one thing only… JESUS! And Louis, that talk really really touched me. I have an Ashleigh in my life who’s been on my heart for so long. Her name is Sarah and I love this girl with all my heart, I just always wished she would become a Christian. And after hearing that I know God can change her heart! I know now that I might see her in heaven, because God loves her so much. Cape Town, You guys have got something else coming. I pray you are affected as much as we were. I’m still reeling from it and I hope you guys will be too! :D Cheers guys. Love you
August 10th, 2008 at 5:40 AM

What a day! I expected a great event… but this blew me away. The presence of our lord and saviour was indescribable.
Our beautiful country still have a lot of problems, but with Jesus on our side we will make a difference. An event like this was long due, as it serves to get young people together and encouraging them to work together towards a united goal. We are proudly South-African!
Thank you to the whole team, it was realy an amazing team effort.
To all the passionate people: Don’t stagnate… lets go into the city and spread the word of Jesus, so that it will rage out of controll like a wild fire. Capetown: Let this be a chalange. Our prayers are with you!
PS. YES, I LIVE IN SOUTH-AFRICA AND NO, I DON”T HAVE A PET LION!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:46 AM
Hello to All the Passion Crew!
Thank You to everyone who helped making this day possible. From the setting up, to the media, sound guys/girls, thank you for your help in making this possible. Thanks to Chris and band, FEE and Louie. South Africa will never forget the day that Johannesburg turned to God. We shall be know is a Nation that lives for the Glory of God.
We shall make Jesus famous ! !
From the start of this day things we already on fire and it builded up every session. Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God forever!
This morning in Church service when I was busy worshipping and I put my hands in the air. My eyes looked to the bracelet that said PASSION CAPE TOWN and I just started praising God for Wednesday night when Cape Town will be moved by the presence of God. Be Ready Cape Town because the wave is coming!!
Praise God !
Thank You for all the prayers Jakarta!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:46 AM
Wonderful… Fantastic… Extraordinary day of worshipping the Lord God almighty!!! Passion, u guys rocked and you brought a revival with you that will keep the young children of God in South Africa fired up for years to come… I was transformed into giving my life for God’s glory. I realized it’s not what God can do for me but rather how he wants me to give him glory… There’s is grace in the presence of the Lord… Cape Town hold on to your seats, the Lord is about to blow u away!

SJOE! Yesterday was awesome!! I’m finding it difficult to find words to tell my family and friends what it was like, because there really aren’t enough words to explain what God did yesterday!
He gave me answers I was desparately looking for, healed my past, blessed my future and breathed over my life. I could loose myself in the rhythms of His grace and the tides of His love.
I have found so much deep joy in the face of things that crippled me, all because God and His grace. I could sing with meaning and understanding that it’s only because of Jesus that I am alive, that He has rescued me from the dead-end life I was in, that he gave me new life and that death no longer has a grip on me! I am free! Oh, praise Jesus!!!
IT’S ALL BECAUSE OF JESUS’ I’M ALIVE!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:50 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 5:54 AM
Saying that yesterday was an enjoyable or great day would not be right in any way… Because knowing Jesus and feeling His presence can in no way be described by human words! It’s such an encouragement as young Christians to see older people like Louis setting such a great example of simple faith and love. I felt like crying when Louis finaly greeted us and said that he loved us guys, because that’s exactly what we need! We love you guys too! We’ll keep the flame burning!
Your in our prayers.
Shalom, Nick and Ruan!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:55 AM
There are no words to explain what happend at Passion Jozi… God moved in ways I cannot express. God is just AMAZING, AWESOME, WONDERFUL, GLORIOUS!!!!! All my thanks to God for moving us here and lifting us up as a generation that will say: “YES LORD!!!”
When I was at the conference, I said to God that I cannot leave here and be unchanged, and I won’t be. I will not live for myself anymore, but I will live my life for the glory of God and that my life will make Jesus famous. Watch out world, because there are 6000+ children of God going to rock you for the fame of Jesus, and I am one of them!!
Thanx Jakarta for your amazing prayers!! I love you guys, you are my brothers and sisters and I know that you are with me to make our King Jesus famous. Really I love you guys. And Cape Town, HOLD ON TO SOMETHING!!! Because I am praying for you as will 6000 others and God will Rock your world, so that you can Rock this for the only one that matters. Can’t wait to read your blogs about passion.
GLORY TO GOD FOREVER!!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:56 AM

Above all else to make the name of Jesus famous in the four corners of earth, to all people groups!!!
Jesus is the only way!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:59 AM
I kind a got dragged along, I had a very hectic week and was actually praying that my friends would be led by the spirit to take somebody else. So getting up yesterday at 5′ish my usaul time I had no idea what to expect from the rest of the day….BUT I am glad I went along…..Passion you rocked my world and my spirit, may God be messy with his blessings on every person involved in the passion movement…Thank you for awesome P&W for every word of your msg….I hope to see you guys soon. There are so many people I wish I could have shared the experience with…but the time will come. Glory to God, glory to God, glory to God FOREVER!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:00 AM

to the passion team a very big DANKIE for everything, may God continue to bless you throughout your work for Him.
cape town i hope your getting ready for the experience of a lifetime! we’ll be praying with great expectations.
August 10th, 2008 at 6:01 AM
Thank you so much, Passion Team! It was so AWESOME to be reminded of Jesus’s grace!!! I’m living for Christ’s renown, and He will be FAMOUS on my campus! CT, you in for an explosion of God’s presence and grace!! Praying for you guys!
Passion, please come back again, I got so many Ashley’s I wanna bring next time!! Love you guys!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:02 AM
The sound of 6000 young people worshipping together still hasn’t left me…
Lord, thank you for bringing unity among us and giving us the privilege to live for your fame alone. Thank you for your G-R-A-C-E…
Cape Town, we’ll be praying for you!!! God will exceed your expectations!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:06 AM
The conference yesterday was refreshing. I was reminded that it is by grace that i was saved and that there is a whole lot of people out there who are still in the dark and dont have a clue that they are in the dark. This made me remember all my friends who i thought i admired because they had all the cool stuff and came from rich families. I was reminded that if you dont have Christ and whatever you are doing is not for christ, then whatever you do if futile,….useless….a waste of time.
I can honestly say that i am a happy person now because i met with God. Meeting with God does make a difference, i feel lighter and my smile come easily now.
be encouraged…… He will love you no matter who you think you are!
Much love
August 10th, 2008 at 6:07 AM
I had a real expectation of Jesus himself coming onto the stage! Made my heart feel like it was swelling up and couldn’t contain the excitement! God showed me such a deep meaning of his cross yesterday – something that I had been praying for and Thank you Jesus so much!!!!!!!
Thank you to the Passion Team for coming to SA, we loved having you here and hope (WANT!) you come back next year!!!!
Cape Town – I am praying for you! Great expectations!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:07 AM
i got it.
Louis – i got it.
Thank you.
Cape Town We’re praying for you.
Thank you Jakarta
“Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me
Break my heart for what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from earth into
Eternity”
May I have Jesus heart.
May I make Him famous.

August 10th, 2008 at 6:12 AM
I have been a Christian all my life but never the type of Christian I am now. The Passion Concert has changed my life. I have always felt that my relationship with God was missing something but on Saturday I felt like I made a real connection with Jesus our saviour.
Louis, You made more of an impact on my life in 12 hours than any pastor has in my life. Thank you so much for everything you and the team (esp Chris and Fee) have done for me. I cant wait to go out and be fruitcake for Jesus!! Hope I can find my very onw Ashley and make a difference to the world one bit at a time
“We are the redeemed. We are the ones who are free! And We belong to JESUS!!!!!!!!!”
August 10th, 2008 at 6:13 AM
WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!!
“YES LORD!”, “YES LORD!”, all of my life! You came and changed the lives of 6000, now let us ALL go out and change the world. Thank you Louie and the team, so humble, so blessed, so loving, all in the name of JUSES CHRIST!!!!!!!!!
Cape Town be ready, be VERY ready!! This is going to BLOW you apart. We are all praying for you.
Love You my Jesus.
August 10th, 2008 at 6:13 AM

Yesterday was AWESOME!!!! To worship God with 6000 young people was an amazing experience that I will never ever forget!!!
God’s presence was all around and it felt as if my heart wanted to explode!!!!
I would like to thank both bands, you guys were FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Louie – your message was powerful and I thank God that He blessed you with such a wonderful gift to speak to the hearts of young people and have such a impact on my life and my relationship with God. I cant thank you enough!! God bless you all for the rest of the tour and onwards!!!

That was awesome!!!!!! I wanna thank you guys for an awesome experience. I really enjoyed seeing Chris and the guys performe. They rocked!!! Louis has an absolute gift from God, that is the gift of speaking in a way that thouches you deep inside. It is as if the big man himself is speaking to you. I got a real message yesterday that gives better meaning to my life. I now know that God has a plan with my life and that my life here on earth has a purpose!
Thanks again.
Jesus is awesome!!!!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:20 AM
Psa 100: 1-5
A Psalm of Praise. Make a glad sound to the Lord, all the earth.
Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.
Be certain that the Lord is God; it is he who has made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep to whom he gives food.
Come into his doors with joy, and into his house with praise; give him honour, blessing his name.
For the Lord is good, and his mercy is never-ending; his faith is unchanging through all generations.
Thank you Louie and Pasion for the best experience of my life. Yesterday was great, awesome, unforgetable!! You sure are awakening a generation, lets just pray to the good Lord that we will stay awake to to make his name known!!!
Thanks again!

August 10th, 2008 at 6:21 AM

So this morning when i woke up there was only one thing on my heart, well ok two…
How great is our God, sing with me How great is our God…
And then the one still resounding in my head and in my heart:
We are the redeemed,
we are the ones who are free,
we belong to Jesus,
We are now alive,
and in this world we will shine,
we belong to Jesus,
We are going into all the world,
we’re carrying the light of Jesus,
We shine, we shine,
In the darkest place we SHINE!!!!!
In the darkest places i will SHINE HIS LIGHT, for the glory and renown of HIS name… Fruitcake for Jesus for ever!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:27 AM
Let me start by saying “GLORY TO GOD!!!!!!”, the words are still ringing in my head. Yesterday was by far the best experience of my life, i can honestly say that was the first time i worshiped and praised God fully from the inside out, all day long. We thank the LORD.
I firstly want to thank God for his grace and majesty. It is because of his saving grace that we can all freely lift up our hands in praise of him. I LOVE YOU GOD!!
I also want to thank Louis and the team- U guys were awesome, may God grant you the strength to continue to spread the gospel of Christ and his saving grace.
To Capetown, brace yourselves. you are guys are going to be soaked in the wonderful spirit of Jesus Christ and that is going to ignite a fire that will cause you guys to praise him all day long. We’re praying for you!!!
Woooooooooow!!! GLORY TO GOD FOREVER!!!!!!

Thank you so much for coming to our city!!! I feel like a new person with a new purpose in my life!!!!!
I LOVE YOU JESUS!!!!! xxxx
August 10th, 2008 at 6:29 AM
I got it, and it got me!
Yes Lord!! Thank you Jesus for awakening this generation! We’re praying for you Cape-Town! Thanx for your love and prayers Jakarta!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:31 AM
Yesterday was an awesome experience and appointment with God – worshiping the greatest God ever is such a blessing and to love Jesus in this country freely is the greatest privilege we can ever ask for! We don’t have to come together in secrecy to pray and worship – no, we come together, 6000 at a time to give all our praise to the Lord Almighty without any fear of being prosecuted!!
Many thanks to the Passion Team, including Fee, Chris and Louie!
We are all so grateful that God sent you to us – strengthening us in our faith and making the Revival of South Africa – which we’re all a part of – so real and also making me extra positive about what the future holds for our country and the world!
Blessings to all!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:34 AM
Louie, Chris, Fee you Rock!
Mat 16:18 So I will call you Peter, which means “a rock.” On this rock I will build my church, and death itself will not have any power over it.
Praise God 4 what He is doing through you!
Cape Town get ready!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:35 AM
How great is our God!
Sing praise to THE LORD OF ALL lords, THE KING OF ALL kings!!
Forever GOD is faithful, forever GOD is STRONG, forever GOD is with us!!!
Get ready for the GRACE of GOD Cape Town :)
Thanx for everything Passion Team!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:35 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 6:36 AM
All I can say is WOW…
Last night was probably one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had. I didn’t know much about it and it was more of a last minute thing that I decided to go, but now that I went I really wouldn’t miss it for the world.
Jesus, I’m absolutely in awe of what you are capable of doing and SO much more!
Thank you so much for coming to South Africa and giving US too the oppurtunity to witness you guys and the work you do!! I feel completely changed and I really feel now that I TOO have a huge purpose in life.. and that i’m not JUST irene.. there’s so so much more I can do and give..
I love you JESUS!!
;)
August 10th, 2008 at 6:40 AM
Almost every comment posted is one of thanks.
But I can honestly say, that no thanks could ever fully tell you what we feel as a result of Saturday. God moved and i assure you that He met expectant hearts. I was sponsored to go and I’m absolutely ridiculously chuffed with what God did.
God has anointed all of you involved in such an incredible manner. May God use you guys to an even greater extent in Cape town!!
WOOHOO! We all praying for God to move hectically in Cape town!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:41 AM

Passion 2008 was HONESTLY one of the most moving experiences of my life…as we got into the building, i just felt Gods presence over the crowd like a mist…i just burst into tears!i have such a heart for youth and young adults, and to see a room full of almost 6000 people in my age group, all there PURELY to worship and life God high, just BLEW MY MIND!the words of the song are definitly true:”grteater things are yet to come, and greater things are yet to be done in this city”.our generation WILL make a difference.
seeing louie(my fave preacher…woohoo!) was amazing. thanks louie, you really so have a gift from God, and i really believe you reached a lot of people yesterday, and opened a lot of hearts. i really pray that God blesses you, and your family, for hauling yourself all over the world so that we can hear Gods message.and seeing chris tonlin live!wooohoo!super stoaked on that…chris you also SERIOUSLY do have a gift from God…your lyrics arent just written for the sake of. they touch heaven dude, seriously.thank you so so much

:) :) :) :)
I GOT IT!!! AND IT GOT ME!!!
Yes Lord…
All i can say is WoW! Last night was amazing and absolutely mind blowing. From 10 am til 11 pm i was blown away by every little thing. I came home and could noy stop telling my family, friends and ‘ Ashleys” how amazing it was. I was blessed beyond words, and i cannot say THANK YOU enough.
THANK YOU to Mr Giglio, Passion and Fee… you have all added to my life more than words could ever explain and i will forever be grateful. Last night was honestly LIFE CHANGING and i cannot wait to spread the word about Mr Giglio, Passion, Fee and most of all our LORD AND SAVIOUR!!! Thank you Jakarta for the prayers and love… it was amazing!
The presence of God was so obvious that it touched and filled each and every single person there. I can say for myself and everyone there last night, that Jozi will never be the same. We are THEE generation who are going to MOVE and SHAKE the groung of Jozi for the FAME OF JESUS!!!
I am filled… I am changed… I am a different person… I learnt i have a reason to live… I have something and someone to live for.
Thank you..
Much love and prayers for The Big Cape Town :) Be blessed
August 10th, 2008 at 6:42 AM

August 10th, 2008 at 6:45 AM
Glad to hear that God has touched Joburg, like what He has done in Jakarta 4 days ago.. We’ve been praying for Joburg, n I saw just so many people wore those bangles (written : passion Johannesburg) for 4 days in the mall, everywhere.. not just in the church!
it’s amazing how God’s grace has fallen upon us all, around the globe… around the world, praise God!!!
Merry, Jakarta, Indonesia…
August 10th, 2008 at 6:46 AM
What a day!!!
I knew it would be awesome, but wow! God really came and blew my expectation! the presence was awesome! even though i struggled to stay awake the first few sessions as we drove through the night from boshoff, after a 3 week touring cycle with my ministry (13th Floor), to attend the conference, I made sure to take a nap during our breaks and fully enjoyed the message!
Chris, your voice!! WOW God has really blessed you a lot! Thank you for using it to praise His name!
Fee, you guys were just as amazing!
And Louie, I dunno what to say. It really was an anointed day. I could really feel His presence when you spoke. I know you hear it everyday, but thank you so much for taking the gospel and spreading it in such an awesome way! I Love the Jesus in you!!!
and LAST BUT NOT LEAST! Thank you JESUS for showing up so awesomely yesterday! Gauteng wil never be the same. only you could have rocked gallagher like that, and not only because of the music! I LOVE YOU!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:47 AM
WOW!!!!
Cape Town: GET READY!!!!!!!
Let my life be all for You and for Your glory!!!! And let Jesus’ name be made FAMOUS!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:49 AM
Wow!!! Amazing!!
Thank you for saying “Yes Lord!” and following through and ending up in our city.
I was a volunteer at Passion Jozi yesterday. It was a joy and an honour to serve the students of South Africa. I can’t say Johannesburg because people were there from all over Southern Africa not just South Africa. We were outside as everyone was queuing to go in and it was so cool to see the cars from other provinces waiting to get into the parking lot.
Thank you to Louie and all the Passion Team for a really well organised event. It is such a joy to know that all the way in America you guys have our children in your hearts. I am the mother of two young adults, a 23 year old daughter who knows Jesus (she was there yesterday) and a 20 year old son who we are praying for. My prayer for this morning is that some of the fallout from yesterday will fall on him and change him forever.
What can I say to the people who were there yesterday? Well done for choosing Jesus over Oppikopi! It is the right choice and one that will count for eternity!
Once again Thank you!!
August 10th, 2008 at 6:49 AM

What a mind blowing, life changing event. To everyone who made this conference possible, I am truly grateful… Can’t wait for the next one-COME BACK SOON… We serve an MIGHTY AWESOME GOD, Cape Town, get ready to have your lives rocked. AMEN…
August 10th, 2008 at 7:18 AM
You guys rocked Jozi like no other show I have seen before!!! …And I’ve seen a few! My mates and I had an awesome night of worship and learnt a lot. All the glory to God and our prayers will be with the Passion tour!
August 10th, 2008 at 7:25 AM
Saturday has never been so much fun!!
The conference was great great great. I love the message of the cross and it GOT me. Always looking for bigger and better new messages when the only one that should matter is the basic and simple one. (but I say that with the greatest respect) It is in fact the GREATEST MESSAGE! The gift of Grace was truly seen with new eyes, and I can honestly say- My pride (not always noticing it) is now swallowed.
I hope that all the students of our mother city that will get to experience this awesome conference will be amazed beyond comprehension, that the Cross will GET them- and that the only thing that they can do is go down on their knees and be overwhelmed.
Thank you, Gracias…Dankie!
Blessings
August 10th, 2008 at 7:36 AM

At first I didn’t even know about Passion or anything about it, but luckily my best friend phoned me from London, and said that he wanted me to go with him, and that he already bought me a ticket!!! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I was totally blown away by the whole experience. Thank you very much, it was life changing. May God bless you and guide you through all the challenges.
Glory to God forever….
Good luck, we’re praying for Cape Town.

Thanx for an awesome day…
HE CAN MOVE MY MOUNTAINS……!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 7:49 AM
I heard about Passion a year ago. And it struck me when one day I heard the words South Africa in the same sentence.
I lived a pretty good life, and for once in my life i realized good ain’t good enough. Its a hard world out here, everywhere. And this Passion conference just opened my eyes and heart for what must have been done and what is to come.
I don’t know where to begin and what to begin with yet, but I pray that God would kick in at the right time, at the right place.
To be honest, I feel very confused after yesterday…
It was awesome, thank you, every body.
August 10th, 2008 at 7:53 AM
What a day, truly God was magnified and glorified! It was awesome to see there’s people all over the world who has the same passion we have for God. I know it sounds cliche, but I just had this moment where I felt that God is really.. I MEAN REALLY doing something big!
Cape Town… my prayers are to you for an awesome Godly day! All praise to God!
August 10th, 2008 at 7:55 AM
Wow!!!! What an awesome day. Jesus you are AMAZING! Fee you rock! Chris you are blessed and you blessed us. Louie you make it so understandable. Thanks for a fantastic day. Cape Town be expectant… We’re praying for you.
August 10th, 2008 at 7:55 AM
Wow. Thank you to the team for an amazing day. Yesterday God took me too a New level, re-igniting my flame and reminding me that it’s all for His glory, it’s got nothing to do with me. I came expecting God to do something big and He did something Great. Will be praying for Cape Town. May the Lord continue to be with u guys as u continue the tour and He uses you to influence, and change millions of lives. Thank you for coming to SA.
August 10th, 2008 at 7:57 AM
Glory to God
Glory to God

May those word resonate in our lives and serve to feul this generation to bring the name of Jesus Christ to utmost fame on this planet. I hope that the hearts of those ppl who are attending Passion Cape Town will be ready and open to recieve the message God has sent the passion team to deliver. As proof that this will be so, I hold as evedence the faith of 6000+ proclaimers of the most beautiful Name.
BTW, I just read that we should turn our wrist bands inside out, but mine is too tight!
Ok, bye.

August 10th, 2008 at 8:02 AM
WHAT A BLESSING!!! I went in expecting a day of worship and talks, not knowing that I was embarking on what was to become one of the most amazing and fruitful days of my life!
The passion and love emitting from the 6000 odd people who attended gives one hope for our country and truly speaks volumes for the amazing work that God is doing in our area. May we take from there the blessed reassurance that God is ever present and cares for you no matter who you are or what you’ve done!
Let’s go out, make a difference for the Jesus generation is upon us…its going to AWESUM! By the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ alone shall we become his labourers and spend all the rest of eternity in His glorious presense, shouting His fame!
Cape Town…We’re praying for you and hoping that Jesus blesses you as he has done in Joburg! God Bless you all,
August 10th, 2008 at 8:06 AM
ALL THE GLORY TO GOD!
August 10th, 2008 at 8:07 AM
Jesus Christ is Lord, He is ALIVE and He is moving BOLDLY through our city and this world!!!!
last night was AMAZING!!!! the simplicity of the day and evening focused on why we are alive – because of God, Christ and making his name famous and sharing the goodnews beginning with the cross!!!!!!
thank you for coming to Jozi and we really hope that you keep us in the loop of what is going on and i pray that you come again, the more we spend time together as history makers and a generation for God, the more we reach out to people! although i pray that last night was just another form of engraving this into our hearts and turning it from an event into a life-style!!!!
Louie, Chris and Fee and so forth you guys are wonderful leaders and thank you for making yourselves available for God to shine through you!!!
i get it and it got me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE YOU FATHER GOD!!!!!!!!! JESUS IS THE RADIANCE OF GODS GLORY – AND HE IS FREELY AVAILABLE FOR US TO REACH AND HAVE AN INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP WITH!!!! thank you LORD!
keep persevering guys….

August 10th, 2008 at 8:08 AM
Wow! Louie and the rest of the team, the most wonderful fruitcakes in the world! I cried so much and guess what? I am still emotional! (“,) You can be living a Christian life and still be in a cage! Yesterday walls just came down in my life. I knew of grace – that is why I knew I was saved and that I was going to heaven – but I didn’t know the grace. Thank you for saying ‘yes Lord!’ and as a result, touching my life! I now have a sense of purpose and I am excited about the future! I have read 2 Cor 5 over and over and I am still so blown away by the message of love and grace! I still have my band on and I am praying for cape town!
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory, take my life and let it be Yours!”

Blessings to all and to the Passion team, keep it up, we will be praying for you and thak you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 8:45 AM
Firstly, I was lucky enough to obtain a ticket with only 1 day to go before the show and was that money well spent or what!? (My condolences to the person who decided against going (you really missed out!) but, may you be blessed for passing on your ticket!)
To be quite honest, my first thoughts just after arrival were that the day might be long and tedious and that we were going to have to endure +-8hrs of being cramped up for space and that I was going to get to know the person next to me a little more then I’d like to :) (this was while we were seated and waiting for things to start). At the end of it all that didn’t even matter! I sang as loud as I could and as long as I could with little breaks in between for voice recovery. Pretty much all the songs were exceptional and fun to sing along with!
I also appreciated all the FX and planning gone into hosting the show so to all the engineers and coordinators, well done!
What I really really loved was the enjoyment you noticed (spontaneous smiles if you will) on the faces of Louie, Chris and band and Fee when the crowd sang back or shouted and whistled frantically, and the crowd realizing this (their enjoyment), gained energy from it and went beserk even more!!
If I knew that Jesus caught himself smiling yesterday, that in itself would be reason enough to attend all events like this one!
Thanks to the whole Passion team for all their hard work to make this possible and to the bands for all the songs stuck in my head! May God bless you more than you can imagine!
Okay that was a mouthful :)
Brace yourselves CT!!
btw we had ample space :)
August 10th, 2008 at 8:47 AM
WOW! One of the best days of my life! I thank God for you guys and what you are doing for His glory. He is really working wonders through you! May God bless you and everyone in CT and may the name of Jesus be lifted higher and higher always!!! He helped me a lot yesterday, and I hope He will do even more for everyone else!! God bless you guys! And we hope to see you again soon!
August 10th, 2008 at 8:49 AM
How wonderfull is our God!!!
Thanks Passions for all your love and hard work that you have put in to this awesome evnet! Cape town, get ready for the day of your life! Help make our Jesus famous!!!
The music and the teachings was incredible! FEE YOU ROCK!!!!!!!
Revival is on its way, we must just pess in!!
God bless!
August 10th, 2008 at 8:51 AM
Guys, IT WAS AWESOME! Having only recently found God again (thanks to reconfirmation after reconfirmation after reconfirmation followed by a massive SURRENDER), God spoke to me in so many ways throughout the day.. Thanks for an awesome day, and all the Glory, Power and credit to the MOST HIGH LORD GOD ALMIGHTY! Keep at it, and God be with you and protect you and keep doing His work through you!
God Bless all of you!
Cape Town, BLESS YOU GUYS!

August 10th, 2008 at 8:55 AM
…AWESOME…
I am a sound engineer here in Pretoria and started at a new job last month. The people that work with me DO NOT know God! When we prayed last night for people who did not know our King, my friends that were working with me were first on my mind!
Today I went to work and the one guy who was the most on my mind last night came to me and said…
Stefan…
…I need GOD…
Praise to You oh God!!! I love You so much!
Thank you Passion! You changed my life!!!

And to be a part of the twining that is going to hold worship and justice together in this generation means that my 5 seconds life has no limitations. The Lord will work through me to help the Ashleighs in my life!

Louie, God is really speaking through you. Your message yesterday really touched hearts! Fee, you guys rocked, your music is amazing. Chris Tomlin and your band, you were more than a christian band playing, you turly led worship. Thank you all for not making Passion a concert, but a worship session!
I really hope that you guys return to SA soon and if I’m older than 25 then (only in another 4 years so try come before), i will sneak in!
God bless guys, am praying for you and the rest of your tour! Cape Town, get ready for a day of ROCKING OUT for Jesus! x
August 10th, 2008 at 9:36 AM
It`s true what the say: Beinng high on God`s spirit surpasses anything this world could ever offer. That is exactly what happend yesterday. Never in my life have I experienced the coming together of 6000 enthusiastic, God-loving, dedicated and passionate youth to worship and praise our God.
Although the day got a bit long at times, I could feel myself lifted up and re-energized by Gods` Spirit, just to get back to praising Him.
The story of Ashley is something that all of us can relate to…being on campus myself, I know so many young people (including myself) that live for the word with the thaught that one day i`ll get straight with God. Unfortunately one day might be one day too long! So my wish is that all of us who “gets it” will show our friends what they are missing in God Almighty and try to walk with them in finding God. Not for our own purpose, but for our understanding of God`s love and sharing it unselfishly with others.
May all of us make it our live mission then to be light carriers of this world and so getting the Truth to the ends of the world. And in doing this create a loving and God-filled environment for the next generation to come…
Go and share Gods` love…
August 10th, 2008 at 9:38 AM
Hi Passion Team,

“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” Heb 11.1
“The heavens declare the glory of God, and the skies proclaim the work of His hands,” Ps 19.1

AWESOME!!!! AWESOME!!! AWESOME!!!
I’m not enough of a poet to truly express in words what this night truly meant to me. A realization of an unfailing love and grace that exists for us – that the creator of the universe could love each one of us, irrespective of our transgressions, more than any person ever could.
I want to thank the passion team for what they are doing all over the world! In SA we’re experiencing never-before seen events where 60000 Christian men get together on a farm for a weekend to worship and exalt God; We see that rugby stadiums all over the country are being filled with 70000+ people on each occasion just for a glimpse of their creator’s majesty and unfailing love!
It is clear that the hunger for the gospel here, and I believe in the rest of the world, is more powerful than ever before. THANK YOU LOUIS, CHRIS AND FEE!!! I pray that God will bless you as you continue to feed the nations!!!
Yours in Christ
Jean
P.S. I’ve had the privilege to view many of the world’s most famous rock-and-roll bands performing live i.e. Metalica, Collective Soul, Seether, etc. They were impressive, but you guys made them seem like puppies!!! You Rocked the place!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 10:05 AM
AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
Thanx for a great day. GLORY to the RISEN KING!!! Now i know GOD’s GRACE is for me 2!! :-)
Cape Town be prepared, something a amazing is coming your way!!
HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD!!??

Got home at 3am last night after our car broke down on the way home (270km drive).
Went to bed really grumpy.
Woke up really stoked to go to church.
Shared at teen church about making Jesus famous (gave Louie the credit).
Then the guy who was supposed to teach this morning shared this awesome testimony about how someone has just been a friend to Him and really made a difference in His life (He was not at passion).
The tears were flowing it was awesome.
August 10th, 2008 at 10:28 AM
The entire passion team
wow! Jesus is captivating, God worked in a wonderful way through all of you-THANKS!
the sessions with Louie blew my mind, its all about the cross and letting Gods love shine through me in all i do-thanks for reminding me that its all about God!
Fee, Chis and the bands-OH MY!!! the worship was awesome, Gods spirit moved through the place like a tidal wave and hit everyones hearts HARD!
let us “SING SING SING” for the glory and grace of God
bless you all

Thank you, Passion Team.
I really feel challenged after yesterday to stop just being in the world but start DOING in the world. I know so many of my friends need Jesus, as well as the people I work with in the hospitals I’m a student in, and I realise it’s time for me to step up and be CRAZY about Jesus…
people have to KNOW about this fantastic, big, beautiful, amazing God we love and serve and Who loves us so much more than we can even understand. God has definitely worked a change in me…
SING SING SING about Jesus! Wohooo!!! I’m SO excited to be in South Africa during this exciting time of REVIVAL and God’s POWER. Man, He loves this country!
Thanks again, everyone, for really being obedient to God’s call on your lives to help him change ours.

Hi, Mr. Giglio and the Passion Team!!!! Being one of those over 25’s who came to the awesome day of worship and exalting the name of Jesus, I can only say: To God be the Glory. Forever and ever and ever….. Yesterday just taught me, amongst others, to understand and comprehend the meaning of the words in our praise and worship! God is awesome and indeed untamable. Our prayers are with Cape Town, and the remaining cities and of course, the Passion Team and your families.
August 10th, 2008 at 1:02 PM
It’s amazing how the experience is pretty much the same wherever the tour goes, because it’s the one and SAME God who’s been acting so powerfully through the Passion team and the whole 268 generation, now spread not only over America, but the whole world.
I’m so happy for you at JB, and I was able to read a few comments and some of them really remind me of my own comments on the Passion Sao Paulo blog entry. May you guys rock SA for Jesus! I pray we Brazilians rock our nation for Jesus as well. Thnak you Jesus for everything you’ve done and for all that’s yet to come!
Praying for Cape Town and the whole Passion Team (which includes the so hard working production crew and assistants and volunteers of course!)!!!!
Love,
Rodrigo – Sao Paulo, Brazil

Whilst sitting with my head bowed down and eyes closed, feeling guilty and full of shame, but at the same time thankfull for this Grace God gave and still gives through Christ, I saw a vision of Christ’s face, and he looked at me, with the most loving and caring eyes, and said: “Ek weet”. In English this translates to “I know”. That was all, and I couldn’t help but burst into tears. Wow. Wow. WOW.
He is alive!
I pray that Cape Town will feel Christ and act on the urge that meeting with Him will produce, to go and change their City – In JESUS’ Name!

Wow! It’s so amazing to see the Lord working in so many ways all around the world! I’m still flipping out from my experience in KL. God Bless you guys in JoBurg!
Just want to say also, I’ve finally found the podcast! A couple of friends and I have gone out and gotten ourselves on the podcast (wish we could’ve done it sooner) and it’s just amazing listening to all the stories and voices from around the world. I’ve been listening to podcasts all through the night and it’s 3 am in the morning where I’m at. So, Louie, I’m not sure how many other podcast listeners you’ve got from Malaysia, but you can certainly add 3 more to the list.
We gonna make Jesus FAMOUS! God Bless!

Thank you Loui and Chris and the whole Passion World Tour team!
Thank you for being obedient to the Lord and caring and loving for a lost world – the scripture that comes to mind is ‘the love of Christ complells us…”
The love you have for our young generation is reflected in all your actions, songs and words – the youngesters recognize this and see it as THE REAL THING! So they open their hearts to Jesus because of your transparency and straight forward message!
I am a mother of 2 sons (22 & 16) who came along with me to the Jozi Passion Tour and we all 3 loved it!
May God continue to bless your work with His love, PASSION and power!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:00 PM
I don’t think the words wow, amazing or even indescribable can describe the feeling of Saturday!
The light of the Lords shines thru Louie and the bands, they are doing it for the Big guy…and it’s amazing!
Thanx for everything guys, you are blessed!
Cape Town…you don’t know what’s heading your way!
God bless South Africa.
And remember, everyone of us is the difference the people will experience in our country-live it!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:00 PM
we are the CALLED, let us rise and unite as the leaders of the future…
August 10th, 2008 at 3:00 PM
Yesterday was completely, utterly and beyond belief AMAZING!
Passion, you have an annointing to reach the youth that God has grown and will continue to grow to indescribable heights!
God came down and we went up!!!
Let’s be praying for Cape Town and for all those Ashley’s that we know.
Cape Town – get ready to be BLOWN AWAY!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:00 PM
Passion- Thanx soooo much for yesterday!!! I will never forget it! You guys definitely left your mark! I have three Ashley’s that I know and that I pray for everyday – hoping that someday they will open their eyes and experience the greatness of our God! Today I have been singing the words
“Take my life and let it be
all for You and for Your glory
take my life and let it be Yours”

Praying for Cape Town!!!!
Grace and peace

August 10th, 2008 at 3:12 PM
Wow wow wow!! Thank you so much for bringing Passion to South Africa! I just realised again what a HUGE responsiblity we have for spreading the word and setting an example out there, and how easy it can be if you just surrender and let God do the talking while you do the praying! We are so fortunate that He trusts us with this task. You cannot leave Passion and not be changed.
2 Cor 4:18 “So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal”!
Your Grace is enough for me!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:12 PM
woo-hoo! thanks for the post, I have been expectant about Johannesburg!
Awesome, awesome, awesome!
August 10th, 2008 at 3:16 PM
YES YES YES!!!!!
Can’t we do this every month? Cape town, you don’t know what’s gonna hit your town!! Watch out world, Jesus is becoming famous and you woun’t be able to risist his grace and love. Isn’t God just amazing! Thank you passions, you opened up allot of truth for me.
The floor actually moved by itself as people jumped up and down! I wish I could keep my wrist band on with every countries name on it, but I know I will be reminded each time I think of God, There is a revolution, a new generation coming and I can feel the joy in my heart. I sometimes can’t help but to cry of joy when I see so many people praising God. Espesialy students. Oh how great God’s works are!!! I always thought there is only a few in this fight, but to see how God’s people are growing …. it leaves me speachless.
SING SING SING!!!!
I can’t help but to get crazy!!! I just want to jump of joy every time I think about what is busy happening, if I think about how amazing God is! Loving a vapour like us.
I pray for all the ashleys out there!! God will find you in your pain! And you might nog expect it at all!
Thanx Louis for making it real. Thanx for being that light for Jesus. Thanx for your teachings! I am amazed! Oh I also subscribed to the podcast! So I will be listening!
Keep it real!
Keep well!
Go make Jesus famous! There is many more stories and diaries to tell about God’s grace! Oh and those who don’t keep diaries, it is a good thing to have, Through mine I could see God’s miricales even if I didn’t notice it at that time.
Cape Town God is gonna ROCK YOUR WORLD!!! Hold on tight, the mountain is gonna move, the earth is gonna shake and the vail is torn.
Cheers
Adios (that means To God)

Great college ministry reaching students who want to Live 2 Love 4 Jesus. And the way you students are pouring yourselves out to God is amazing…reaching into your pockets to reach out to others to provide blankets, fresh water, and God’s word. You’re a chosen generation reaching out to every nation.
Keep up the good work students. Prayers for you and the nations as you proclaim His fame and renown.
Prayers also for Passion as you reach out to the campuses of the world. “One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts” (Psalm 145:4).
August 10th, 2008 at 3:27 PM
Hi Louie, Chris and team and Fee,
You were so amazing, I never like never had so much fun in my whole life. My life was not easy, and I prayed every day for something wow to happen in my life. Many years back I was also a Ashly………but God changed me and I love Him with my whole heart. A few days back I started to read the Jabes prayer (1 Chronicles 4:9-10) and I just want so much to do His work to Gloryfy His name and then ………….. I went to You show!!!! WOW WOW WOW, amazing is all I can say.
Thanks you inspired me.
Enjoy the rest of the tour
I realy hope Gode Uses me like He use you
Have fun and all the love for JESUS
Regards
Anneline

Yesterday was exelent, there are now words to describe it, Our God is bigger than we know and can do anything and everything.
I just want to thank the Passion team for all your hard work, and for you letting Jesus use your talents in this way (to praise and spread the gospel). Everything about the day was great even the running and fighting for good spots in the crowd.

I’m in awe at what happened in my heart yesterday!!

THANK YOU SOOOOOOO MUCH Louie and the passion crew!!

Blessed and Transformed! Glory to God, forever…
It’s been such a mind-blowing (transforming) experience. Isn’t it cool when God comes and changes your life? It’s the best!
Psalm 133 speaks about how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity – it was so great to worship together with my brethren (from here in Gauteng and from the US of A) the name that is above all other names (and the only one that is worthy to be praised): Jesus Christ.
I really hope we will see you guys again. Thank you for sowing good seed into our lives. Continue in the grace and mercy of our Lord. Let His annointing flow!
Keep it real… until our paths cross again.

That is the only word that comes to mind when trying to describe what saturday was like.
What a sight to see so many young adults just on FIRE for GOD.
CapeTown we praying for you guys, and show this team what being Proudly South African means when it comes to be passionate for Christ.
To louis and the Team, in the words of HANCOCK “GOOD JOB” :-)
What an awesome ministry you guys got going. May you guys be blessed with strength and energy to keep this up.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:10 PM
Hi guys,
Just adding my voice of grattitude to the others when I say:’Thank you!” Thanks for an awesome day that I could spend with my BIG BROTHER! You all reminded me of how grace is the most awe-inspiring; mind blowing; life changing; (I’m running out of words so I’ll say) ‘blank; blank; blanking; blanked’ thing above all other things! I love Jesus and want to make His name famous!!!
I will also add my voice in agreement to all the other voices of prayer that go with you and you families for the rest of the tour and beyond! I pray that our King will use you even more in times to come!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:13 PM
Last nights show truly stirred up a new passion in my life for the One who gave it all. Even though I had a sore throat when I woke up yesterday morning, I could not be stopped from shouting out the joy I have knowing that Jesus is alive and He is living in me and a lot more people who will take a stand for His renown in this country and continent of Africa.
It makes me want to cry, when I think of what the Lord can do to this country thru changed lives…wow, isn’t it just mind blowing to serve a God that one knows will be faithful, loving…a God of passion. I know none better!!!
To conclude, I can truly say that I now have an even deeper love for the Author of Salvation.
Love to you all in Christ
Rowan
August 10th, 2008 at 4:16 PM
What an AWESOME night!!!! Will never forget it!
“…take my life and let it be all for YOU and for YOUR GLORY!”
Thank you Passion for coming to South Africa!!!

Yes Lord………..
Keeps on repeating in my inner most being …and I made allot of truths part of my life forever ,i`m humbled and want God to use my life to glorify Jesus that will be my prayer every day…Cape town we are praying for you!!!!don`t miss this event …
Thank you Lord for raising up this awesome ministry ,thanks for the Passion team may the Lord keep on using you all as vessels of honour .
August 10th, 2008 at 4:35 PM
Cant stop singing..love you guys.
God is good and Jozi is up for some thing big.
greater things are yet to come…
August 10th, 2008 at 4:35 PM
Wow, what a really awesome time it was to spend a whole DAY worshipping in the presence of the Lord, i mean a WHOLE day we were there and yet I didnt want it to end. Thats something i’ve never done, man i’ve been missing out. If this was just 1 day, then eternity in heaven with Christ would be… (there are no words).
It was so REAL and relevant, everything on the day was perfect. And I can truly say that I walked away that night more on fire for Jesus that I’ve ever been. Take my life LORD, and let it be yours!
There is a real annointing on you Louie and the PASSION team. I have been so blessed to have had the opportunity to attend the conference, will definitely be urging everyone I know to attend it in future.
Fruitcake will never be the same again (…by the way i have always liked fruitcake).

August 10th, 2008 at 4:49 PM
Sing sing sing…. :)
how amazing our Lord and God is!!
all my fellow SA brothers, on our way from Pretoria to the conference, the devil tried to stop us from hearing the word of God on Saturday, as we drove down a street, a car came out the of a petrol station driveway without stopping, Wolfgang the driver swerved out the way! we all know that the micro bus should have collided with that care but God had bigger planes for us that day, so He made a way where there, in human eyes, seemed to be no possible way!!
i am a changed person since yesterday amazed by the power of our great God, and smiling , greeting, the way i eat food, everything has greater meaning!!
we decided, my friends that where at the conference with me, that we wont to be FFJ’s (fruitcakes fro Jesus) from now on!! so watch out to all those that know me and don’t know the lord, cause I’m a FFJ looking to tell u bout the glory of God by him living through me!!! all u who read this, pray for me, to have the strength to do what i just mentioned!! and be blessed and a blessing to those around you!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 4:50 PM
woke up this morning with a song in my life, and it is still going strong.
when I read the posts, everything has been said, but I feel I need to add the line from Fee :”Glory to God, Glory to God, Glory to God, Forever!”.
cape town may you be blessed as we have been and may the Light Of God burn brightly in your life, in your city, and in our nation.
August 10th, 2008 at 4:53 PM
Grace finally settled deep in my heart yesterday and I feel like things have clicked into place in my spirit. I finally allowed the unfathomable love of Jesus that I have been telling others about to flood my life!
How incredible to hear Louie speak about our ‘5 second life’ being connected to the eternal flame of God (if we choose to say ‘Yes Lord’) and the worship taking us closer to the cross with each line. Truly Unforgettable!
To everyone who sowed sweat and prayers into Passion Johannesburg, may you receive a bountiful harvest! My prayer now is to see that same passion and power in Gallagher explode into unity and purpose in our beautiful city and the rest of South Africa!
Now is the time to arise for the glory of Jesus Christ!
Cr
August 10th, 2008 at 4:59 PM
The conference has been over for a day now, but thoughts of passionately living for the glory of God are still resounding in my heart and mind. Thank you so much Jakarta for praying for Johannesburg!
Cape Town…we are praying for you! Be ready for God to move in your life!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:00 PM
Hosanna…. Enough said
August 10th, 2008 at 5:03 PM
Had evening service tonight and everyone who was there yesterday, showed up at church with a huge smile and whistling a familiar song. We sang together as we set up and packed up the gear. we agree in prayer and we look out for each other more than before, just because we know that God’s blessing our unity and faith. GOD IS GOOD.

August 10th, 2008 at 5:04 PM
Louie, Chris, Fee and the rest of the Passion Team
I give thanks to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, as I am praying for you. I believe that you have got a powerful message and that the anointing of God rests upon you. Thank you for not making this about you guys, but making it ALL ABOUT HIM!!!!
The weekend was MIND BLOWING!!!
From reading all the comments I know that the rest of Johannesburg and S.A. is hungry for the GLORY OF GOD poured out not only here, but also on this continent and in the world.
It is my prayer, that everyone who attended the AMAZING service the weekend, will remeber this LIFE CHANGING experience and that they will live according to the Word of God and in His grace.
We truly serve an AWESOME GOD, all the GLORY to HIM.
Cape Town, we are praying for you, get ready for experiencing GOD in ALL HIS MAJESTY, SPLENDOUR AND GLORY!!!

August 10th, 2008 at 5:16 PM
indeed tonight was a blessed evening service and i believe that God sang, played and reached out to the people who came to seek the word of the Lord tonight!! it’s truly amazing if one just changes one thoughts and prayer to one that lives or says, yes lord, take me and use me for what u have planned for me and those that i will come in contact with, through you Lord! amazing…. praying that the high from yesterday lasts for ever, but more do i believe that it will if we pray for one another the high will become a part of every day, Jesus is capable to do that for us, and i pray that we stay opened up to that….
to God be the glory!!!
FFJ team member!! :)
u guys in????? :)

August 10th, 2008 at 5:26 PM
There are no words to describe how amazing yesterday was! I have been a Christian all my life..but yesterday just strengthened my faith so much..I have evolved into a whole new dimension of my faith. i want to live the Christian Way..be a folower of the Way..all the Way. Just within one day, I have found myself pondering how I can be a better Christian and strengthen others’ faith in our Saviour. I want to help people! I want to do what Jesus did! I want to have a pure heart and live thanking God every day for the Amazing Grace by which I am saved.
August 10th, 2008 at 5:26 PM
I came to South Africa from North America, to see what God is doing here. I had the opportunity to go to passion. Well, I saw a people deeply in love with our savior, Jesus, ready to change the world as one people. I was greatly blessed by you as a nation. I hope this “Passion” you received will spread to the whole of Africa and then to the world as an example of what the unity and love of Christ can do in our lives. Bless you all.
August 10th, 2008 at 5:28 PM
Hey All,
Thanks for the awsome time on Sat…
Please could you make the DVD avaliable for us to buy so that we can share the awsome experience with those who were unable to make it….
Thanks Again!!!
P.S LOL ;-)
August 10th, 2008 at 5:41 PM
GOD is GROOT….
GOD is bigger than we can ever imagine.
Praise Him
August 10th, 2008 at 5:42 PM
Yes, Lord
I still want to jump up and down… yesterday was soooooooooooo amazing. When I got up this morning my ears was still roaring: JESUS!!!!!!!!!…JESUS!!!!!
I just want to thank God for his grace to make me apart of Him. I’m praying for all the people that shine their lights to the ‘jungle’ world. Something I realised is that I’m only a small part of a very large amazing picture and the picture is Jesus. It’s all about Him.
Thanks Louie, Chris, Fee and bands and all the people that had something to do with Passion. I really experienced God through each and every one. It’ was freakin amazing! You revitilized my passion for Christ in Africa!

Thank You Jesus Christ!!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:49 PM
CAPE TOWN – Go buy a hat and get ready to hold onto it! This event will blow you away and take your heart to a brand new higher place! You’re all in my prayers.
To worship with 6000 others is so amazing – it’s like a teeny tiny slice of what I hope Ill find in eternity. (I hope there are electric guitars in Heaven!)
And to know what God can do in just 14 days renews my hope for all my lost friends.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank You! For inspiring me to greater faith and hope in my Saviour.
Finally, I get it!
August 10th, 2008 at 5:54 PM
Louie, Chris, Fee and the rest of the Passions team
Thank you so much!!!!! May God bless your obedience and faith in Him to bring the message of life to the world. I believe you reminded us all what the Cross,God’s grace really means and that He is mighty to save!!!
May we all live to the glory of God!
Greater things have yet to come and greater things are still to be done in this city!
Just want to add something out of Purpose Driven Life that correlates with what you said about our life being short and that we should light our fire(life) with God so it can become one fire and last for eternity. ..but I’m going to add it in Afrikaans..
“AAN DIE EWIGHEID GEMEET IS ONS LEWE MAAR ‘N OOGWINK, MAAR DIE GEVOLGE DAARVAN SAL VIR EWIG LEWE.”
God bless!

I added some pics on your fb page to show how awsum this was! it completely changed my way of thinking and just siked me up and let my believe that there is still hope for our corrupt, lost country, if we submit it to him! “Take my life and let it be, all for You and for Your Glory”
Thank you so so much for your obedience to God in letting him lead you, esp lead you to our country. May God bless you. Our prayers go up to you guys! Love – Melissa

(Psa 38:17 MSG) I’m on the edge of losing it– the pain in my gut keeps burning.
(Exo 23:25 MSG) “But you–you serve your GOD and he’ll bless your food and your water. I’ll get rid of the sickness among you;
We’re experiencing difficult times in South Africa. We think we can’t stay here anymore, we want to give up, move away.
(2Ti 4:5 MSG) But you–keep your eye on what you’re doing; accept the hard times along with the good; keep the Message alive; do a thorough job as God’s servant. South Africa needs us now more than ever! Stay here, pray a lot: God will prevail!
(Mar 1:15 MSG) “Time’s up! God’s kingdom is here. Change your life and believe the Message.”
Thanks to Louie Giglio and Passion for strengthening us and spreading the Word!
My prayers go out to you and the team for Cape Town and the rest of the tour!

hey PASSION guys!
I was profoundly touched by the passion event in joburg yesterday. Thank you guys so much for faithfully following God and through your obedience touching so many lives!
I came to the passion event not knowing what to expect, but I was really excited to see how you guys were so clearly led by God throughout the event. It was wonderful to see that none of the bands or louie, took any of the glory for yourselves but openly reflected it straight back to God!
I will be praying for Cape Town!! Keep going, and thank you again.
Love Julianne

Dearest Passion Team,
I struggle to put into words the joy and excitement that i still feel, a day after Passion JHB.
Chris and Fee, thank you to you both, for leading us in the most amazing and powerful worship i have experienced in the longest time ever. i have to say that as six thousand young people opened their hearts adn raised thier voices to our Savior, i could do nothing but weep from joy! You have truly found your calling in life, and may God bless you always.
Louie, i have the greatest respect for a man such as you. thank you for devoting your life to the next generation, and for the love that you pour out upon us.
To the PASSION team as a whole, wow!!!! Thank you a million times over!
If there was one thing that i learnt during my day at PASSION JHB, it would have to be, “YES LORD!”
GLORY TO GOD FOREVER
August 10th, 2008 at 6:37 PM
blown away! my heart is bubbling over with the experience of 6000 young adults on fire for Jesus, 6000 hearts wanting their lives to mean something, to glorify Christ! We are on the brink of something, God wants hearts that want HIM. It is electric. Thank you Passion. Prayers for your team, for the cities you are yet to visit and then young lives you are touching. I agree, “Let my life be for Your glory, take my life and let it be YOURS!!!!!!”

Praying for the next stop
Hugs for everybody of Passion Team

This conference, PASSION, has ignited a desire within me to reach the lost. To make a difference right there where I am.
God is so good! The cross still matters, it always will and we should NEVER lose sight of that!
Thanks to the team for visiting our beautiful country! May you be blessed!!!
August 10th, 2008 at 7:42 PM
God is great, He’s everywhere and He longs for relationship with us. Praise be to His name, and to the Name above All Names, Jesus. The lover of my soul,the complete glory of God on earth, the One and Only, the Beginning and the End, A King and a Carpenter, Holy and Loving, Righteous and Fair, True and Gracefull.
To Him be all the honour and praise and Glory,and may we as South africa and the world truly KNOW You for all you are. You are the great I AM, you are potential personified and my heart longs for you only. We invite you o Lord to this continent, country and each and every life. For without you there is no life, noe freedom and no love, truth and justice.
Bless your Word going forth through this movement and every other movement that exhalts the Name of the risen Jesus Christ, may it fall on prepared hearts, and may the harvest echo into all eternity. We bless you Lord Jesus, and give thanks for every heart and life turned to YOU at the CROSS through this ministry.

WOW!!!
JB sure sounds like they had an amazing encouter with Almighty God.
This is so great – a generation rising up all over the globe with the soul purpose of declaring the Name of Jesus higher and higher and higher than all others!
I am so fully stoked with joy out of my socks at what has happened in my home-country South Africa in Jb and what is to happen in the Cape!
Amen! God is truly great and His praise really does fill the earth and fills the heavens. I so cant wait to come home at the end of this year to JB – wow – this is going to totally fantabulous – the atmosphere no doubt has changed. The lights on fire for God is shining more brightly! South Africa will be saved!
I so cant wait for Passion – Sydney…aaaah Oct 21 is so far away…but we are caught in it via praying for ya’ll!
bu all good what is happening everywere else is inspiring, up lifting, faith building – causing us to be caught up in the wave of expectantly waiting on God to do what He does best. Save souls. How He does it. His style.
And to simply be the medium used to share Him with others, to lift up the name of Jesus is such a priviledge.
Hey and I havent even been to Passion yet…
Passion Team – keep it up. It is super that you’ve got the spotlight firmly focused on Jesus Christ.
Brisbane is praying for you all.
Amen. keep your light shining – your candles seem to have got 10000’s of more on fire shining brighter!
Jesus!Jesus!Jesus!Oi!Oi!Oi!
August 10th, 2008 at 10:51 PM
Whoo hoo ! Go JOZI !
It blessed me a lot to see that you guys are having a time of your life.. you guys GOT IT ! His GRACE is enough ! God bless SA !
With love from Jakarta, Indonesia :)
August 10th, 2008 at 11:14 PM
We (everyone, including the Passion team and the volunteers) really gave it all for the King! All because the King gave it all for us… It’s great to praise His majesty with every single one of you and i look forward to doing it again.. albeit in heaven! :)
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory, take my life and let it be Yours!
GLORY TO GOD, GLORY TO GOD, GLORY TO GOD, FOREVER!!!”
Thanks to all and Glory be to Jesus!

Shoo! wow wow wow wow!
It’s this time of the morning and I’m still blown. It still feels like I’m there…..at the conference.
I can say now that i got the cross, I honestly got it and I’m pretty sure that it also got me. Louie, you and your team are awesome hey. I can’t believe that i still feel like I just came back from Midrand now. I have been studying ever since, and I just thought I’ll visit the blog after my test on tuesday but I could not hold myself. I’m filled up with a lot of emotion even now and it feels good. I’m praying for you people and that Cape experiences what we experinced and more.
you guys are doing an awesome thing. I keep thinking to myself that you guys are such a blessing to this world and are probably tired. But i keep changing the “you are tired thought” because you came from all these other cities and you still BLEW the place with much enthusiasm and energy. You guys keep the light shining.
thank you,thank you thank you s much! The feeling is just indescribable!
August 11th, 2008 at 12:42 AM
Passion… One word. Only one word comes to mind when I think of the experience in Midrand. AWSOME!!!! Thanks to Saterday I gave my life to the Lord Jesus. You guys really changed something in my life and there is absolutely no way for me to say thank you. I’ve been on all kind of “high’s” in my life and the high that I was on Saturday and now, is by far the greatest feeling in the world.
THANK YOU PASSION!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 1:00 AM

We pray for all of you guys!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 1:18 AM
All glory to Jesus Christ!
Saturday’s Passion event was brilliant in how the message that you gave hit home.
I’m praying that God works in Cape Town in an amazing way too, and that you guys are able to worship as freely, be challenged as much and have as good a time as we did.
Thanks to the support team, the volunteers in green, the worship team and then thanks Loius.
God is good and you are being effective in stewarding the talents and gifts you have and you have blessed us by being here.
August 11th, 2008 at 1:23 AM
It was thee most amazing day ever! All Glory goes to Jesus!
Cape Town… it’s going to get messy! (in a VERY GOOD WAY!) So get ready! We are praying for you!
Alle eer aan God! Kom ons skyn Sy lig orals waar ons beweeg!

August 11th, 2008 at 1:45 AM
Wow!!! Saturday was one of the best days of my life!
I went home, wiped out from worshipping God. How awesome is that??
Thank you Louie, Chris, FEE and all the other staff that brought this message to us here in Jozi & Pretoria (that’s where I’m from!) Wow wow wow – it blew me away. For all the prayers from Jakarta and everywhere else – Bless you!!!
It defenitely got me alright, and for the first time, I really got it.
Greater things have yet to come, greater things are still to be done in THIS city. God is busy taking over – what a privelage to be part of that!
I believe in my heart that God is going to rock Cape Town like never before!
Praise God forever!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 1:52 AM

Thank God for everything =)
En-En from Jakarta
August 11th, 2008 at 1:59 AM
Thank you so much for blessing us, and blessing people all over the world. It’s a humbling thought to think that there are so many christians connected all over the world by the Spirit. It’s so easy to forget and get wrapped up in your own little world, thank you for reminding us again!
Glory to God, FOREVER!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 2:00 AM
Never in my 23 years in this world have I ever experienced the presence of God as much as I did this night. I came there expecting something great, even though I was not sure if I was going to need a notepad and a pen, or a whole lot of energy for Christ.
When the video started playing as the day started I immediately knew what was about to happen. I got so overwhelmed by the presence of God that I was barely able to sing a word of the first song – I was that near to joyous tears.
I cannot thank God enough for sending people like Louie, Chris and their team out into a world that often seems to be a hopeless place. You guys are truly gaving back perspective and direction to the Church. My biggest desire is to someday (SOON) be able to give to the Lord as much as you are giving to Him – all for His name, glory and renown.
Thank you for facilitating a truly blessed event!
My prayers are with you, Cape Town, and all your future work for God!!

I will never be the same as most of our youth, i’m sure!!
Cape Town open your heart to what God is doing and you will never be the same!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 2:19 AM
It is undeniable fact that a fire has been lit under the hearts of the people who were graced with the presense of God working through the amazingly blessed team at Passion.To be involved in THE revival is an incredible gift that i will hold with me forever.I said YES LORD on saturday morning and that is something that i feel completley called to doing every day for the rest of enternity. Thanks to everyone who made Passion Jozi happen and i live in the Hope that what we experienced then will be repeted at all the rest of the stops of the tour. Cape town prepare your hearts to be challenged and moved by the Lord.
GOD be with,
with LOVE….FOREVER
August 11th, 2008 at 2:20 AM
wow wow wow, this is a generation that is together laying down their lives to gain the prize, its Christ in us, thank you so much for taking time out to come and worship this King of Glory with us, its amazing how there is so much beauty and hope when the children of God come together, the enemy has been defeated and we sing hallelujah, watch out world, together we will serve our generation and run this race.
Louie your passion for God and your love of people is written all over your face, its amazing to see how when you talk about Christ, you radiate this light that says this is so real i can taste it, soldier on team, we still cant get over what went down in Jozi, but Christ always does that, leaves one dumbfounded and in awe of all that He is doing.
thank you passion team and blessings to you. We are the redeemed, we belong TO Jesus.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:22 AM
I got it…I was one of those people who heard about the cross the whole time and through repetition always thought…”yeah thats great and stuff but why do people go so nuts about it.” During the second session God showed me how WOW it is by actually using something really scary that had happened to me just a few days before.
I woke up in the middle of the night and suprised an intruder in my house! It was to date one of the scariest experiences of my life. I thought he might kill me and screamed and cried from my very core. Luckily he just ran but on Saterday God said to me…” You know how scared you were in that moment…well, to face a certain death is about 10000000000 worse than that!! That is what I took away from you!”
Hit me like a tonne of bricks. Thank you ALL for the most incredible day and for helping my heart come to terms with the splendor of the cross!!
August 11th, 2008 at 2:22 AM
All glory to our famous King Jesus! Your grace is enough for all. Passion Jo’burg was such a blessing and we pray that Cape Town and the rest of the cities that are still to come will be flooded with the awesome love of our Father!
Thanks to the Passion team and thank you Jesus for the cross…(This is it…)!!!!!
We look forward to the day Jesus comes…it will be the greatest “passion” conference of all times and we will all worship together for eternity onwards. Can’t wait!!!!!
Lots of love and blessings!

August 11th, 2008 at 2:29 AM
Hi Guys!!
What an awesome experience, I really enjoyed every moment of it. Thank you to the WHOLE team for coming to Joburg SA. It ’s really great to have the opportunity to come an pour our hearts out to our King Lord Jesus Christ and to learn and be encouraged by Louie and the Passion team.
Your organisation is doing an amazing job, I pray the the Lord Jesus will continue to bless Passion and all who is involved.
The worship was absolutely stunning – I love worshiping, so Chris & band and FEE really set the moment to feel God’s presence the whole day.
Thanks Guys!!
And the most important thing about this experience is that God’s grace was touching all of our hearts and that is a feeling that no one can describe. Thank you Lord!
God Bless you all,
Nicky

WOW something ill never forget!!! god bless safe travels and thank you!!!!!! love se
August 11th, 2008 at 2:32 AM
Sho!!! it’s two days later and i am still in awe that 6000 SOUTH AFRICAN young adults saw past their denominations, saw past status, saw past all the unimportant things that so often hold us back… all in the name of JESUS!!!! it’s exiting i must say. I fell in love with passion two years ago when i first heard the “sermons on DVD” but never did i think i would become a part of this movement that is sooooo on fire for God!! I pray that this fire that was rekindled within so many of us would burn and burn and keep on burning and that it would spark the fire in those we come into contact with!!!!!!!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 2:33 AM
WOW!!
It was a fantastic evening for just the one person in our life, in my life that makes life worth living and make every second count, that is Jesus our saviour. Thank You for all of you that made the night special and memorable.
I haven’t gone crazy like that in a while. And it felt GOOD!!!
The bands: You rock! (im not going to say you rocked, bacase you still rock in my mind, Sing, Sing, Sing……..you know!) :)
I wish you all good luck with the rest of your tour. And will pray for everyone in Cape Town, so that they could also GET IT!!
Oh, and by the way, We are still wearing our red passion Johannesburg bands until Wednesday when you are in Cape Town to pray for them and you.
Jesus Greetings,
August 11th, 2008 at 2:34 AM
WOW!!!!!
It gave me hope again for the Young people!!! I am director of an org called OpenMind. And have lost faith in the young people in this country. OpenMind give food and blankets to the people on the street. And I didn’t think that there is more young people out there that cares about the other people of our beloved country.
Thank you Passion and Louie for a great event. I really hope we will see you here more often. I’m sure you will. Africa’s red sand gets in your blood, and her people in your hart.
Good luck on your quest. And remember to keep your eyes on God, and not the outcome.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:36 AM
YES LORD.Greater things are still to come for this city.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:38 AM
This was amazing! Thank you to the whole Passion team for the blessing! May God be with you throughout the rest of the tour, as you bless the rest of the cities as you did Joburg.
WE ARE ALIVE!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 2:40 AM
Hello world*
Thank You Jesus! Thank You Heavenly Father!
We are greatful that You hear us!!!!
thank you Jesus for empowering the Passion people to & making such a tour possible for us to bring You glory, shout Your praise – AND thank You for hearing us!
Its awesome to see in all these replies and that many people quoted a song lyric, a line that touched their lives – but all so unique, different lines touching different people!
Passion people, thank you for sharing your dream and making it ours, which is God’s plan all along!!
May we all just submit, and be God’s hands and feet.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:41 AM

August 11th, 2008 at 2:41 AM
AWESOME GOD …
HE REIGNS , He Reigns , HE REIGNS..
Let it be all for him and for his glory.
Passion ‘08 johannesburg, let it not just be a really awesome night ( where worshipping God with 6000 other people – the next level.. With great prayers – agreed with.. and an Awseome God.. ) just be another night.
We gotta start something bigger than ourselves, carry a light entrusted to us and go into our worlds and rock it ..
Let’s step out of the ordinary, the average, the normal to become like Christ (extra ordinary).
Thank you Passion
Remember to keep prayer for those still to come to see passion. (CAPE TOWN)
GOD BE GLORIFIED>>
August 11th, 2008 at 2:43 AM
If there were any words to proclaim the glory of our God, then I would type them… He is truly AMAZING! I’m still awestruck by His glory! Capetown watch out, the Glory is bigger than you know… I can’t stop talking about the Cross and the Grace, its all we have, what more do we need? 2Cor12:10
Thank you for an breathtaking day, there is truly no one like our God! He’s indescribable, uncontainable and all these words are just way’s to try and describe the indescribable…
May God bless the rest of this tour, I know He will because it is done for Him and His glory! Blessings!!!!
It was amazing to experience this with my best friends in the world! Their awesome and I know that together we can make a difference for God in Potchefstroom! Kyk net hoe baie PUKKE is ons hier!!!!! Praise and honor to the King of all!
Psalm 137
You’re the God of this city, let us be the vessels that You want to proclaim You’re glory. If this life is not about You, it’s really no life at all! Keep us strong in the faith Lord and let us not just post comments on blogs, but let us go out and proclaim to the world that the greatest architect wants to meet them. Praise and Honor be to our God forever and ever! Amen.

August 11th, 2008 at 2:45 AM
All I can say is that words do not come easy when trying to describe Passion Joburg. It was by far the best day of my life and this is not just empty words. As I am typing this comment, I am wearing my Passion t-shirt and I am so proud of it. The whole day was just so blessed and wonderful and yesterday (Sunday) I could not get the words of all the songs out of my head, not that I wanted to anyway.
I have never felt so alive in my 22 years of life! Jesus worked with me in a very special way and I just want to cry, but I know it is happy tears. Yes, I am a christian, but Saturday made me real.
Thank you Louie and Passion for allowing me to experience God like you guys do!
I am out of my mind for Jesus and it feels great!
Love you guys! (LOL- Lots of love)
August 11th, 2008 at 2:45 AM
Wow, God was/is awesome in this place….
Louis, fee, Chris and all your staff thank you for being faithful to God’s call on your life and the mission you have taken up to change the global student generation….By your faithfulness God has a avenue into their lives.
Cape Town you guys are in for a great time with God, we all are praying for you.
May the wave change this nation.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:46 AM
Whow!!!
My heart is still beating just a little bit faster than it is suppose to (…and it is monday already..)
I love my nation, my contenent and our Creator.. I’m privliged to live in South Africa and witness the glory of God change our Nation!!
Thanks Passion
Cape Town expect great things… Love you

WOW! What an amazing day. I woke up on Sunday and I have been singing ever since (and I really can’t sing, but that hasn’t stopped me!)
Cape Town – we will be praying for you. You are a part of this amazing nation that we all love so much. Let’s rise up and shine for God’s glory!
Thank you to all the people who made Passion JHB possible. It was so cool to be able to praise Jesus with such, well… PASSION!
WE ARE NOW ALIVE, AND IN THIS WORLD WE WILL SHINE! AND WE BELONG TO JESUS!

Hi Passion Team – ALL – Louie, Chris and Band, Steve and Band, organisers, prayers and intercessors.
What a wonderful experience. I was one of the “older people who managed to slip though” as Louie said. My wife Sue and I were fortunate to have been accepted as volunteers for Passion Johannesburg. What a blessing to have been part of that crowd of students worshipping the True and Living God – Jesus. At almost 60 years of age, to now be able to say that I have eventually been to a Passion conference is amazing. I have been avidly following the movement since the first “One Day Live” cd came to South Africa, and wondered whether I would ever get such a chance.
Louie, may the Lord continue to bless you and Shelley in your endeavours with the young people of the world. You talks are all so “personal”, and really thought provoking of the Truth as should be taken to the world – the younger generation are the people who CAN make a difference.
I do not think that any of the campuses represented at Gallagher will ever be the same.
We are praying for and trusting in the Lord for mighty works in Cape Town, before you guys return for a well deserved break, before the next leg starts.
May you all find rest and peace at that time and strength in Jesus to take you once again onto the road (or the air) with messages of HOPE from Jesus.
God bless you all oncer again, and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for having been able to be a volunteer.

WOW how do you put a day like Saturday to paper…?! It was awesome to say the least!! I was so touched by Ashley’s story and overwhelmed again by the revelation of the power of God’s grace!
Thank you passion team for your hours of effort and dedication to this movement – know that your lives will forever carry great significance!
CT be prepared…. :)
August 11th, 2008 at 2:51 AM
To Louie and the Passion team
As so many have already said – THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!!
I can’t begin to describe how thankful I am to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ for all He has done and is continuing to do in and through your ministry! THANK YOU INDONESIA FOR YOUR PRAYERS!! THANK YOU LOUIE FOR YOUR OBEDIENCE TO OUR JESUS!! THANK YOU FEE AND CHRIS TOMLIN FOR THE AWESOME PRAISE & WORSHIP!! The songs, the annointing, and the message was truly amazing!
What an awesome experience to hear 6000 voices raised in praise to the One True GOD, and then to know that others have been praying for us!!
I just hope and pray that Passion will return to Joburg and next time we will fill stadiums for Christ!! A revival HAS begun in our nation and we will look back and see how this day as a catalyst to that revival!
To everyone who attended – thanks for your PASSION for Jesus. May the joy in our hearts and minds overflow through the Spirit of God and may we reach our beautiful nation for Christ!
The Word of God says that we should ask for the nations, and God will give it to us as an inheritance. God I ask you now for the Nation of South Africa – that we might be a people on fire for You and Your Glory. That every Christian will stand together in unity and reach out to the poor, the needy and the lost – in JESUS CHRIST Mighty, Powerful, and Glorious name! Amen!!
TO ALL THE CITIES THAT PASSION HAS VISITED, MAY WE STAND TOGETHER IN PRAYER FOR EACH OTHER, THAT THE FLAME WILL NEVER DIE, AND LET’S ASK GOD FOR THE REST OF THE NATIONS OF THIS WORLD! (THERE IS NO DISTANCE IN PRAYER) !!
Love and Blessings in Christ

Hey Passion team!
Just wanted to thank you guys for giving me not only a faith boost, but more
importantly for helping me understand grace better, helping me get my focus right and to make Jesus’ name famous and spread His renown.
Keep up this amazing Tour that God is blessing so much!
Cape Town is on my mind in my prayers:)

I don’t think another Saturday could be so powerful as the one on 9th August 2008. (not until you come and visit us again, ofcourse :) )
It was all for the Lord our saviour, which brings peace and wisdom.
And by his GRACE we are all saved. That’s why we GOD IT on this night.
We haven’t gone crazy like that in a long time, and it felt GOOD!!
FEE and Chris: you rock (i am not going to say you rocked, because you still rock in our minds, Sing, Sing, Sing………you know!)
And Louie thank You for a stunning show. God gave you that talent and you are using it to your best.
And hey, WE GOT IT!! :) (for the 2nd time)
We are still wearing our red Passion Johannesburg bands until Wednesday when you are going to be in Cape Town, so that we will pray for you and for them so that they can also GET IT!
May God Bless the rest of your tour!!
Jesus Greetings: L & J & J
August 11th, 2008 at 2:57 AM
Praise & glory to God for being there on staurday and pouring out His blessings over all of us. God is alive and forvere He will reign in our hearts!

God be with you for the rest of the tour.
Cape town…be ready to meet with Jesus like never before and feel the love spreading among South Africa.
August 11th, 2008 at 2:57 AM
To the whole Passion team that you so muchfor the most amazing day. When i first heard about Passion Jhb i didn’t think that it would be something that i would enjoy but once i was there worshiping and fellowshipping with other i realised that it was truely worth it. I thank you all for that experience and i will keep Gloryfying God forever!!
August 11th, 2008 at 3:02 AM
Wow, this event was just what I needed. The Holy Spirit was moving in that Hall on Saturday so much and I really got a whole new refreshing of the Holy Spirit. Chris, Fee, Louie and the rest of the team that took out of their time, money and love to come here to SA and share a bit more of what God’s glory is all about, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Louie thank you so much for the passion you have for the cross of Jesus Christ. It is awesome to see a man who is so on fire for our King and who is giving his life constantly for the fame and name of Jesus Christ. Thank you so much for sharing Ashley’s story with us and how God can use the worst situations to Glorify His name. That is amazing. I will continue to surrender to God on a daily basis, taking up my cross along with the armour of God that we have been given. I really hope that you and your team will be in SA again one day. Louie below is a poem I wrote whic I’m sure you will enjoy as you have a strong Passion for The Cross of Jesus Christ and so do I.
At the foot of the cross
……………………………
I look upon your face Oh Lord,
please Jesus make me stand in awe.
Your beauty amazes me more and more.
You make my heart sing with hope,
that now I have the strength to cope.
Where, oh where, would I be?
Had you not paid the cost,
I would be but lost.
But now I sit,
at the foot of the cross.
My hands and feet were bound,
but now through you I’m found.
Your clothes were torn,
you removed my thorn,
at the foot of the cross.
My mind, boday and soul,
my everything Lord.
I surrender my life and my all,
at the foot of the cross.

Be blessed Passion Team. May God touch your hearts as much as He has used you to touch our hearts. IT’S ALL ABOUT JESUS!! Amen
August 11th, 2008 at 3:06 AM
What can one say, after an AWESOME AMAZING INCREDIBLE experience like that? THANK YOU guys for your obedience to God’s calling on your lives. May you guys be blessed beyond you “wildest” prayers….. THANK YOU!!!!!! Cape Town get ready for a life changing experience!!
August 11th, 2008 at 3:08 AM
All I can say is thank you to God for sending the Passion team to SA. I really believe that South Africa is in a revival and the timing of these events could not be better timed.
When in a gathering like this, or hear stories about God working in Africa, I am reminded of the verse in Zephaniah 3:10 – “From beyond the rivers of Cush [country south of ancient Egypt] my worshipers, my scattered people, will bring me offerings.”
God is truly at work in this continent, and I am wowed that God has invited me to be part of His Story. I pray that I will continue through this life to reflect all glory back to Him, irrespective of what I do. This is my prayer for me, my family, my friends and all my brothers and sisters in Christ her in South Africa and the rest of the continent.
May God bless you all in your ministry, not only for the rest of this Passion tour, but for whatever you may guided into doing later.
August 11th, 2008 at 3:09 AM
Wow, really awesome. Weren’t dissappointed!
God really birthed something new in me through Ashley’s story. Oh by the way Louie, prayed that prayer
To God be the glory
Blessings

Words cannot begin to describe the amazing experience we all had at Passion joburg! I went with such an expectation and yet again God said to me “You think you know Me, you think you know what I can do – whatch this!!!” The presence and love that was there at passion is so indescribable.

Louie, thanx for having such a “big mouth” and being obeident to God, and being so humble in it all. Chris, Fee and the rest of the guys, thanx for the amazing worship. Thanx for not putting on a show, but actually worshipping with us!!!

“My heart is full”. I couldn’t say it better than that. I’ve had a good kick in the pants and I’m fired up. I know that the work God has been doing in my heart over the last few years is now going to be tested. NOW is the time to go out, be bold and be passionate. YES LORD!
Cape Town watch out! God is going to change you, inspire you to do things and live like you’ve never imagined. I can’t wait to see the plans God has come into action.
To the Passion team: Thank you for following God’s promptings. Come back soon!!
August 11th, 2008 at 3:29 AM
Unfailing love, Amazing Grace…
Thank you Jesus for the Passion team – it was absolutely mind-blowing to see so many young people in Jozi praizing your name. We put our hope and trust in You to change things around in South Africa.
Holy Spirit please fill them with your fire so that it may never be extinguished.
May all the nations say: “Yes, Lord!”
Amen
August 11th, 2008 at 3:30 AM
Passion Team
Incredible, amazing, God-honoring, wild, insanely great!! That was the best day I ever had praising God since like forever. Thank you for investing in SA and thanx for sharing that which God laid upon your hearts.
You should really seriously pray and seek God about doing seminars and teaching for the band here in SA. We would love to learn from guys that are so wildly in love with God.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You made a change in my life!!!
Am praying for Cape Town and am also praying for all your loved one.
God bless.
August 11th, 2008 at 3:32 AM
Hey guys,
I drove up from Richards Bay to come to watch you guys, its about 6hr drive but man it was worth every minute.
Its been a while since I last felt the Holy Spirt move like that and man it was Amazing. If anyone walked away from there without recieving anything then you were not at the same place as all of us.
I came there expecting but what I expected and what I recieved were to completely diffirent things. The message was awesome and so online for me. I give all Glory to God because I had an interview on sunday for a new position in Witbank and Praise God the guy walked in and said straight to me that I have the job.
Well guys in CT, I pray that you get to recieve what we did.
To the bands, you guys ROCKED!!!! The praise and worship was so great, hands down to Fee for such and awesome session.
God Bless guys.
August 11th, 2008 at 3:32 AM
I’m at a loss of words …. Thank you Jesus, thank you to all who made the day the most amazing day of my life! My calves are still hurting from jumping so much for JESUS.
I went alone, but I never felt more love and companionship then ever in my whole life. Where Jesus is, there is love and everybody form part of HIS glorious body.
YES LORD.
”WE ARE THE REDEEMED!’’
Who can stop singing after such worship? Even singing in my dreams …
August 11th, 2008 at 3:33 AM

Mornin Guys….
My feet still wants to break out in dancing while making my early morning office coffee…back in the rush.
Nothing can stop what God has started here,although we are in our cars,in traffic,in schools,in offices,in broken homes or messed up relationships.
May we today,step out of our South African “cocoon” and start thinking farther than our own current problems.Let’s not focus on today’s hangups.
But focus on the movement of Peace and Liberty that’s sweeping the globe through the wonderfull name of Jesus…..let’s ask the Holy Spirit, to reach the unreachables in our circles….and maybe the wave of Hope,Peace and Grace, can consume more souls than we ever dreamed of.
God’s blessing already rests on Louie, Chris, Fee and the whole Passion team…let’s pray for those they are trying so hard to reach.
August 11th, 2008 at 3:40 AM
Hey,
Can’t begin to describe how awesome it was to experience such an outpouring of love for Jesus! And how much more amazing that His response to us was so overwhelming. God is working in the midst of His people in South Africa, not just for ourselves, but for our country, for our continent and for the world. Thank you so much to the entire Passion team. You guys are fantastic!
May our five seconds be a bright light for Jesus and for His glory!
Be blessed on the tour going forward :)
August 11th, 2008 at 3:42 AM
What an awesome day!!! It was just so wonderful to be so close to the Lord and to praise His name with so many fellow christians! Its a day that i will never forget! Thank you guys so much for visiting our country and spreading Jesus’ love around the world! We’re praying for the cities who are still to exerience the love of Jesus! God Bless all of you!
August 11th, 2008 at 3:42 AM
To the Passion Team:
A heartfelt THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all of you! May you really experience God’s LOVE and BLESSINGS throughout the rest of the Passion tour.
All the Glory to God for sending the Passion team to South Africa and for the revival amongst the young people in SA. I really feel that God has a GIANT PLAN for this nation and for this generation!
Ephesians 1:18-19 “I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his INCOMPARABLY GREAT POWER for us who believe.”
Just think about the ENORMOUS difference 6000 people, filled with the great power of God, can make in this city and the whole of South Africa! I pray that each one of us will echo these words for the rest of our lives:
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your Glory, take my life and let it be Yours!”
Thank you Indonesia for your prayers! Cape Town, we are praying for you! Get ready to be blessed out of your socks!
Be blessed
August 11th, 2008 at 3:44 AM
Awesome, I belong to the “older” generation and all I can say is wow just wish there was something like this when I was younger. It just made my heart so proud that there were so many young people for Our Lord. Thank you Louis and all the people that came out to South Africa. We serve an Awesome God and we praise His name always. OUR GOD REIGNS
August 11th, 2008 at 3:46 AM
Our hearts are renewed and so is our Passion – THANK YOU! THANK YOU! for such an amazing day, saturday changed our lives – my husband and I are new people living for the glory and seeking the grace of God – we want to make a difference with our lives, and on saturday we “got it”! Now we’re ALIVE again!
Thanks Louie for telling us Ashley’s story – we told it to our small-group at church on sunday and almost everyone was in tears, not because we felt sorry, but because we realised the love that God has for us all, and he will never leave us.
May you all be blessed on your way around the world…we’re praying for you all, and for all the people who’ll hear your message in the coming months.
“Yes Lord”!!!!!!!!!!!
Love to all of you!

August 11th, 2008 at 3:48 AM
To the Passion Team….
Wow!! What an INCREDIBLE day!! I believe that something of the real essence and mission of Christianity has been deposited into each and every heart. The worship and teaching were phenominal!! I was challenged beyond words by the simplicity of the message of Jesus Chirst brought across by you guys on Saturday. The story of Ashley’s life deeply impacted me as I have always questioned death – always focusing on the unfairness of it. But I’ve come to realise, that although it is unbelievably difficult for those of us suffering such deep losses, I believe that somehow we are left with a a hope that we will see those loved ones again – and even more so – we are challenged to spread the love of Jesus to those who do not know him – because we never know when their time might be up. Imagine dying after never having ever experienced the unfailing love of our friend Jesus Christ? I can’t imagine it and yet it’s a REALITY for counless others!! When Louis asked us to pray for the “Ashley’s” we know… I couldn’t – not because I didn’t want to, but because in that moment, my heart just broke for the people that I know who are so lost – and I had no words – just cries to God to save them – and a strong sense of commisioning to do something about it. Please Lord Jesus – continue to “break our hearts for what break yours”!!
Thank-you guys SO MUCH – what you are doing is making a difference – more than I think we’ll ever know in this life!
YES LORD!!!!!!!!!
Much love and all the best for this next leg of the tour!!!

WOW! What a mighty, awesome God we serve!!
I really experienced Gods joy, love and especially grace and it was great to be insane for a little while:).
Louie’s words were challenging though and I pray that everyone that attended would not just see it as a “great experience” but rather a life changing experience to be lived out daily, from today until eternity. And may everyone say “YES, LORD”
It was amazing being in a place with 6000 people worshipping God together in one voice. Jesus is ALIVE and God is definitely working in our cities:)
To Louie, the band and the whole Passion team… THANK YOU!

August 11th, 2008 at 4:11 AM
Today is Monday, and I still filled with the crazyness-ness of Christ that I received Saturday. It was a really awesome experience. It allowed my to connect with The Lord, His Son and the Holy Ghost.
The Ashley story touched me hart at a very deep level – even though I am not a Ashley myself, I realized that what I do today, can have effect (positive or sadly negative) on my next door neighbour tomorrow! It reminded me of that bracelet everyone used to wear: WWJD – “What would Jesus Do?” I want to be a brilliant add for the might God, our saviour and let His great love shine through me on into all around me!
Thanx for the great work!
Godbless!
August 11th, 2008 at 4:11 AM
Dear Louie and the team
I am a 43 year old mother of three teenagers and fearlessly booked our tickets…unstoppable the urge to see and hear more of your blessed messages! I said to my hubby – if they stop us at the entrance, you be the pastor and this is our little congregation! (This is were the-you-told-us-the-not-so-appropriate-LOL-will fit in!)
Louie, you were maybe a bit disappointed that we did not chear when you finished reading from 2 Cor 5:21…well, let me explain why I could not cheer at that moment…it was holly and sacred and the full impact of the words, so broken down in your direct manner… cut through to the centre of my being. It was wow!!! Too wow to make a noise!
Thanks to the worship team and whowever introduced you to the Blue Bulls fenomina! I hope they also told you that we filled Loftus Versfeld stadion a few weeks ago and roured for JESUS!
This morning when I greeted the Lord again, I reached out to Jesus’ hand to rub His wounds. I can not explain it, I was just trying to thanks Him again and to say sorry for what I have caused Him to endure…you know what He said to me? “There ain’t any holes anymore!”
August 11th, 2008 at 4:12 AM
thank you would be an understatement for the incredible experience you guys brought with the mercy of God into our country and into Johannesburg.
i’ve never experienced such an AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING POWERFUL PASSIONATE DAY!
Thank you and may God bless you all and our Country!
Capetown be prepared be very prepared Passion brings a Life changing experience!!! you going to LOVEEEEEEEE IT!
August 11th, 2008 at 4:12 AM

Capetown get ready for the Grace Of God is Coming!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 4:20 AM
I’m sitting here and wondering what to say about a day like Saturday… Words just don’t seem to do it when it comes to describing a day when the ALMIGHTY GOD spoke to 6000 students here in Jo’burg and Pretoria.
I believe that this day was an devine appointment for almost everyone that attended Passion 08 on Saturday. What a God. To bring so many young people together to worship Him for who He is! Something like this would have been nearly impossible just a couple of years ago, esspicialy under our youth. God is moving in big ways in this Rainbow nation of ours. Thank you God!
Thank you Chris, Louie and Fee for allowing God to use you in what He is doing arround the world.
Cape Town and all you other cities where passion is yet to visit, PREPARE TO BE BLOWN AWAY BY AN AWESOME GOD! We will be praying for you…
Blessings and Glory to God FOREVER!!!

What I loved about the conference is that it was all about Jesus!! And not in high word of human wisdom, but in the simplicity of the Spirit. It was the gospel told in truth, that has the power to set you free!
Thank you Louis and your team for breaking down so many lies that have been told around the good news! I pray that God may truely bless you all with an even greater Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation!
August 11th, 2008 at 4:29 AM

Just listened to the Asia-podcast. Blown away by the stories of a Mighty Savior who’s in the business of restoring His fame all over the world. I’m from the Netherlands and often feel left out on all the great things we hear from all over the world.
But even then – I believe in change, in a Mighty Savior who can change this nation and my city!
Greater things have yet to come!
Keep it up! For His fame and His glory! Love You God!

To the whole passion team
Passion was awesomely amazing!!!!!!!!!
The whole day just shattered my perception of worship and amoung many other things I now have a clear perception of what Jesus did for all of us on that cross. For the very first time in my life I “lost it” for Christ.
Louie your a legend.
But to GOD be all the Glory
August 11th, 2008 at 4:55 AM

Thank you so much to the Passion Team and the bands you really are amazing people, and the work you do for JESUS is beyond brilliant!
I have always being trying to figure out what I am passionate about in my life, people have hobbies or sports they crazy about and I realized on Saturday, and I know what my passion is…my passion is JESUS!
I would love to be part of what you do. I pray God will use me one day in some way like He uses your Team! So if you ever need a South African on your team, please give me a shout!

Greetings to Louie Giglio, the Passion Team and everyone who joins us in Christ from around the world
My name is Daniel and I was at the Johannesburg league of the international Passion Tour. During the last session when the praise and worship was on full power, God spoke to me a word for this generation. I was right in the front with my friends and the jumping of the crowd was so severe that the entire building was shaking as in an earthquake. It was so intense that you could see it on the overhead visual display screens. The cameras were shaking so badly that it really looked like an earthquake on the screens.
I have been going through a tough time and was not entirely “with it” during the first two sessions of the conference. It took me a while to let God soften my heart, sitting at the back at first but then at the last session I was in the thick of it. It was the floor shaking that God used to speak to me, first concerning my own heart and then about our generation.
I was resisting the shaking with a stubborn pride and all it did, was become so severe that it actually threatened my balance. I almost fell over. God showed me that the praise and worship of our generation is going to release a Word of God, a testimony, like a succession of vibrating shockwaves. This vibration will be so powerful that it will topple every vain, prideful and stubborn presumption. Nothing will stand against it!
I started to move with the beat of the music, the vibration of the floor and as I submitted in agreement with the beat it began to feel as if I was unmoved, like I was standing still. God showed me that only those who move with the rhythm of this new earthquake, only those who are already in resonance with His Heart, His Beat, His Word, when it comes, will not be shaken and not be moved and will not be toppled and destroyed.
We are that generation, through whom God is going to shake the earth but who at the same time will not be shaken!!!
Yes! There are greater things yet to be done in this city of Johannesburg and all the other cities that Passion has visited and also those others not visited yet greatly beloved of God. I am a part of those greater things and I thank my Jesus for giving me that grace.
We had an earthquake, Cape Town, prepare for your Tsunami wave of God!!!
Thank You Passion for making it possible to post this message on your blog.
Go well and go in Christ
Daniel

“Take my life and let it be, all for you and for your Glory” WOW…i need to write that all over….

Thanks God!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 6:15 AM
Thanks passion for coming to JOzi to encourage us and spur us on toward love and good deeds.Enjoyed the worship and the talks, and the overall Christian culture that we dont experience out in the world.Keep on persevering and doing your thing for God’s glory and His renown.SA is behind you and we have baught into the vision that we want our lives to count and the only way to do that is through the cross.
Cheers
August 11th, 2008 at 6:19 AM
I was only a volunteer, but also a Mom and a Aunt of people attending the Passon Conference. Ever since Saturday night, all through Sunday and still this morning (Monday) everytime I think, speak or read the blog about Saturday, I can’t hold back the tears! It was such a privilege to be able to volunteer. I think most of the volunteers will agree with me that to stand on the side and see you guys who attend the conference worship and respond, was AWESOME! I believe whole-heartedly that God has an amazing plan for South Africa and Africa. An he is going to use YOUR GENERATION to bring this to pass. There has been SO many prophecies over SA/Africa, that to see events like this taking place, you just KNOW that THIS is God’s time. Rise up guys! Take Jesus at His promise of “Greater things to come” and go forward. We are right behind you praying our knees through. To Louie and the Passion Team – you guys are awesome in what you are doing. I can only imagine that it must be tough sometimes, but believe me – there are mothers & father praying for you and your team to continue. May Jesus be the lamp to your feet and a light to your path ALWAYS!
August 11th, 2008 at 6:21 AM
To a blessed Passion Team…
Thank you so much for bringing the story of grace and Ashley to us!! After your visit all I want to do is go crazy for Jesus….in a normal way :)))
The message you brought is what is relavant and very real in this country – God’s grace is blowing over Africa and we are ready to harvest for God in our everyday life – in the smallest and simplest ways …to be part of a huge impact on this world.
THANK YOU – THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BLESSING US !!!!! May God bless you all with even more profound love and energy to keep the wave going..
THANK YOU JESUS….
August 11th, 2008 at 6:26 AM
WOW WOW WOW!! What a LIFE-CHANGING event!! I’m truly grateful 2 have been part of such a mind-blowing event.. No words will ever be able 2 sum up how powerful our GOD is.. All glory 2 Him forever and ever!! “And its all because of JESUS i’m alive!” My heart is overflowing with praise for the beautiful One who gave us life!! “Come on come on your Kingdom is coming!” Thank you Passion, Fee and Louie.. Lives have certainly been changed after Saturday! May all of us continue to shine the light of our amazing God for all time! May every person in Cape Town be truly blessed on Wednesday! God rules, He reigns, and He’s coming back again :)
August 11th, 2008 at 6:28 AM
Wow…
Let’s all be fruitcakes for Jesus Christ! Our group had a beautiful reminder that God provides – provisions of finances, lifts, accommodation even when we panicked in the hiccups – God had a plan, and He has a plan! And again… the beautiful reminder of the greatest provision of LIFE that He’s given us!
Our God is faithful! To be fruitcakes we need to be totally His at all cost (all these things we count as loss…)
Sing sing sing… :-)
August 11th, 2008 at 6:30 AM
Hi Louie and team
Wow. As one of the people on the other side of 25, it was so great to see young people with a passion for their Savior.
Friends of ours wanted to attend Passion over at the States, but due to 9/11 could not get any visas. So we were really blessed that you guys came to SA.
I’ve got a suggestion. Next time, lets get a bigger venue and bring Matt Redman with…. Please!!!!
Jokes asside, I believe that SA is in revival. With 60 000 men at Shalom, and it’s only growing bigger!! I also believe that God has a plan and purpose for SA like you said.
Guys in SA. I’m praying for you!
Love T

Some tips for Cape Town-ians:
1. Stretch. Yes, stretching will help you endure the great sessions of jumping.
2. Exercise holding your hands in the air for extended periods of time.
3. Sing. All the time. Your vocal chords will appreciate the exercise when the true test comes around.
4. Shout. Practice shouting in short bursts. If the neighbours ask, tell them about Jesus and how He makes you wanna shout. He should make you wanna shout – at least some times.
5. Scream. This differs from shouting. I’m talking about the type of action that makes your vocal chords bleed.
6. Jump around instead of walking. You’ll need it.
7. Rest.
So what is passion you ask… well. Add all the above, all at the same time – except stretching and resting! Oh and it’s for Jesus so you’re giving like more than you think you can.
And since you only have an evening – you gotta pack a big punch into the time your have! Go big. Don’t go home! Give it all for the King… shout out and sing!
August 11th, 2008 at 6:36 AM
I remember my first encounter with Christ, it was amazing and all i could do was cry but i didn’t give my life to Him that day. it was only two years later when i came to johannesburg in my first year of varsity that i took that step of faith and from then on its been an awesome walk. every time i think iv seen the best of Him He shows me something else that completely blows my mind away and the “passion world tour ” was one of them. thinking of all the places you guys have been then coming to jozi with the revelation n praise you had was like… i don’t know how to explain it all but “i got it… again” and pretty sure i’ll keep getting cos He never stops. To Louie and the rest of the team “besta luck and God bless you all into eternity”
August 11th, 2008 at 6:46 AM
Hey Louie, Chris, Steve everyone who made Passion possible, everyone who was at the Jozi conference, everyone who has attended a conference thus far and everyone in Cape Town, Mexico, Vancouver, Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Sydney who is still going to attend.
I have been on this journey with God for a while now and there has been really amazing times and really awfull ones as well! But the one thing that stuck out resoundingly was how big the CROSS is! Because my one struggling block, something that I’ve been dealing with day after day after day is not feeling good enough… not feeling worthy, which made me seek worth in earthly things, as well as “christian” things, walking the walk, talking the talk. For a long time I was one of those people Louie talked about, the ones who wasn’t getting it, like the Casting Crowns song:
Stained glass masquerade
Is there anyone that fails?
Is there anyone that falls?
Am I the only one in church today, feeling so small?
Cause when I take a look around
Everybody seems so strong
I know they’ll soon discover
That I don’t belong
So I tuck it all away
like everything’s ok
If I make em all believe it
Maybe I’ll believe it too
So with a painted grin
I’ll play the part again
So everyone will see me
The way that I see them
And then God came and He changed all that, but still I didn’t really get it…
And now, the last couple of weeks He has challenged me to open up the plasters that covered old wounds and everyone of which I thought was healed… well they weren’t… They were still there and I was hiding from them, the “If you can’t see them, I can’t see them, they’re not there” mentality. I thought I had already dealt with it, that I had won the battle! By thinking if I ignore them long enough, they’ll grow tired and GO AWAY! Notice that I use I alot and that the wounds are still there!
I was so mad, why was God hurting me so much by reminding me of these things??? And the thing is, I was getting ready to leave, because I just couldn’t do it anymore… I was disapearing and no one was noticing, no one really cared… And I threw myself this huge pity party! Instead of ice cream, I did chocolate and I’ve never felt so alone and scared, because I felt empty… My life felt empty… And I’m not even 22 yet, shouldn’t this be the best years ever???
And then it hit me…. HARD!
“I CAN”T DO THIS ALONE! I CAN’T DO IT BY MYSELF!” And I gave up, and I gave over control to the only One who really can!
Isaiah 26:8 really spoke to me, because until that moment I was still waiting and praying for the plan, so that I could decide if that’s what I wanted to do… But it doesn’t work that way…
And now I can say YES LORD! YES LORD! YES, YES LORD!
And though I’m still hurting alot and the going is going to be tough, because there is ALOT of lies still, I finally get that I don’t have to do this… He has already done it! And wants us to do it together! GRACE! GOD AT WORK!Now He really is my Comfort, my Shelter!
So Cape Town, you’re in my prayers! I have this hope and unbelievable expectancy for our generation! For the youth of South-Africa… that you will GET IT!!!! I pray for wisdom and hearts ready to recieve the only One that can set you free! That you will experience LIFE!
Amazing grace how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I’m found
Was blind but now I see
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my saviour ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing garce
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God, who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
YOU are forever mine!
August 11th, 2008 at 6:52 AM

As I read through some of the comments, I can only get exited by the new generation that is starting to grow around the world, only saying : Yes, Lord!
A generation surrendering their lives to God, and has a desire in their hearts to glorify the name of Jesus!
There is hope for this world. There is hope for our land South Africa.
Thanx to all the members of the Passion tour, what a truly amazing day, praising the name of the one and only king, Jesus, our saviour!
We are still wearing our wristbands Cape Town, praying for you, May God bless you Wednesday, and most of all be glorified.
Glory to God, forever…

Louie
I get it. I really get it.
All day I have been thinking and meditating on 2 Corinthians 5, all of it…:)
Its not going to get better than this, the cross is at goods as it gets, and the more you look at the cross, the more it just blows me away.
No one, has ever loved me that much too, and what an amazing love.
amazing redemption.
I always pray for my friends to receive Christ, that by some miracle, they are going to find out about Christ, and it hit me on Saturday, that I am the “miracle”. My story of grace is a miracle. How Christ found me, rescued and loved me, is a miracle. And for the first time I fully and totally realised that I have been given this ministry of reconciliation, and I have a responsibility to share it. There is no miracle from the sky waiting to happen, the great miracle, happened already on the cross.
Thanks Louie, Chris, Steve, Ashley, and to all the fruitcakes out there, we have been redeemed!!!!!
We are the redeemed, we are the ones who are free, and we belong to Jesus.
We are now alive, and in this world we will shine, we belong to Jesus.
oh, and Steve, PLEASE put Glory to God, on the next CD!!!!!!!
BLESSINGS, and Cape Town, we are praying for you!

Hey Passion!
Thank you for such a God-filled experience. The worship was incredible, the talks fantastic. And I think Fee needs a special congrats because you guys led such beautiful and awesome worship even though we didn’t know too many of your songs. Thanks (I’m going to incorporate “Glory to God” into our music ministry as soon as possible!) God bless all of you guys and please keep reaching students in such a MASSIVE way!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:05 AM
A really inspiring conference. I just want to say thank you for making a stand in a relevant way.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:09 AM
Did YOU ‘get it’ yet?
Praise be to our indescribable GOD…sing sing sing!

Willie your spot on with the advice!!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:11 AM
if there is a word to describe saturday i cannot find it, so all i can say for now is. . . WOW!!!!!!!!
thank you Jesus
August 11th, 2008 at 7:12 AM
Hi guys
Im kinda at a loss for words. uhmmmmmmmmmmm.
Lets start off by saying wow.
8 years ago in that same building at that same place I with a bunch of my friends attended one of the bigges raves ever in South Africa 23 000 people. And like you know raves are anonymous for its drug use. before i got saved i used to say that was one of the best nights ever.
But now!!!!!!
Turns out, 8 years later, in that same building at that same place I definitely had one of the most amazing nights ever.
How funny is life? Turns out being at the same place, most probably the furthest away from God I have ever been and saterday one of the moments being the closest God.
I was just one of the volunteers by the way, and following Mark’s order to “worship in your heart” i tried my best to to keep my hands by my sides, but now and then finding them in the air not knowing how they got there.
Since saterday i havnt stopped singing – “Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your Glory” I don’t know how to stop, and i dont really want to.
I’ve said it before but it really has’nt sunk in like it did now.
My husband and i are Your Ministry Leaders in our church and i cannot wait for our next meeting to share this with them.
My heart is literally jumping inside of me, going nuts, i kinda dont know what to do. If this is what catching only bits of your story does to someone, i scared to see the student that was listening all the time.
SO, i just wanna say thanx for flaming this fire inside.
Im praying for you guys. And i’ll try to keep my wrist band on untlil your whole tour is done to remember to pray for you.
Saved by Jesus
Liza
August 11th, 2008 at 7:15 AM
That’s Youth Ministry Leaders, sorry.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:18 AM

It was a powerful experience, the harvest is ready! and I am saying YES LORD!
Have fun in Cape Town…
Blessings

Shalom
Ps. hope you are getting lots of rest for the rest of your journey!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:22 AM
Passion conference was absolutely AMAZING, you could feel God there with us. I had such a sense of Him smile while 6000 young people held nothing back and worshiped Him! Lious and the Team, you guys are doing an amazing job!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:23 AM

I’M BLESSED.THANK YOU VERY MUCH CAMPUS OUTREACH FOR THE TICKET.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:24 AM
To the Passion team!
Jesus is the name above all names!
Thank you for making us realise once again what an AWESOME God we have. I was just struck again with just how God brought our salvation into being and how from the very beginning Jesus was His plan. And you are right, this have to excite us every day! And those we get into contact with, should see our light shining, becoming jealous of what we have and ultimately wanting it for themselves.
I pray that each of us who were there, will continue to burn for the Lord and that His praises will be on our lips forever. And that God will make us unashamed of the Gospel and give us the boldness to preach it whenever He needs us to :)
Cape Town: we are praying for you!
As a friend of mine would say, may you all have a “BIG GOD, little me” day, week and year!
In Christ
Adri :)
August 11th, 2008 at 7:26 AM
A ‘new’ revelation of the cross…” Thank you for the cross, my Friend!!”…wow, oh wow…so I had never heard of fee before Passion, and I am wondering why??? :-) Thank you, guys for coming and sharing your lives with us, it was beyond amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:28 AM
Glory to God
Glory to God
Glory to God Forever
Thanks to everyone who made the day possible! Louie, Chris and Fee you guys rocked the place. At one point I wondered if the hall could handle all that jumping.
I loved seeing about 6000 people raising their hands to our mighty Saviour, it really was something special and I will never forget it!
I want to encourage everyone to respond and say, Yes Lord. We are the ones that can make a change in this nation and it starts by doing small things with great love!
Cape Town we are praying for you!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:29 AM
It was by chance that I made it on saturday…
I had NO idea what Passion was about or what we were in for.
Words cant fully explain but… it was a beautiful day. Thank you Jesus and thank you to the whole Passion team. God bless you and God bless your ministry.
Cape Town! Enjoy wednesday, Jozi is praying for you
August 11th, 2008 at 7:33 AM
Hey Jeff….. the Fee band is the nice kids on the block in SA….. They stood in for David but did one awesome job. Now we have another awesome band to sing with.
Ooooohhhhhh it is starting again Sing sing sing……. followed by Glory to God…. Glory to God…. Glory to God Forever……
I feel like crying just thinking how awesome God is and what He has and will be doing for us.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:34 AM
To the Passion Team!
Thank you for a party worth telling about! I was standing there amazed at the fact that 6000 students could jump up and SHOUT the only name worhty of shouting! As a youth minster we are spreading the flame which was ignited at the Passion Conference, to the youth of a Doxa Deo, (Fusion.) Thank you for the encouragement which we as a crazy generation needed and the thought that we know that we are not alone in seeing the name of Jesus being proclamend through the nations!
Grace and Peace to all of you
Thanks
August 11th, 2008 at 7:34 AM
Hi,
All the glory to God. What a day. Thanks for all who made a part of it.
There were new revelation in my life after this and I just realized again how important it is to spread the gospel of Jesus and His love.
By the way…can someone help my out…What were the scriptures that Louie used in his first talk? I can only remember Isaiah 26:8, but there were one he referenced I think in Colossians or I or II Corinthians.
August 11th, 2008 at 7:36 AM
An e-mail I sent after Saturday’s amazing events:
“Revival isn’t coming, it’s here!!!” – Angus Buchan
We’re living in a time where we’re seeing 60 000 Christian men get together on a farm for a weekend, to worship and exalt God; We see rugby stadiums all over the country filled with 70 000+ people, on every occasion, longing for a glimpse of their creator’s majesty and unfailing love! The front pages of our newspapers and magazines are regularly showcasing God in a way we, or at least I, never thought I would see.
It is clear that a hunger for the gospel of Christ exists, and people are craving His word more than ever before! It is a privilege and a blessing to be a part of this movement in SA. And I want to thank and commend every person that is part of any ministry, big or small, for feeding the people of this nation and the world.
SATURDAY WAS ANOTHER FEEDING FRENZY!!! The Johannesburg leg of the Passion World Tour was an experience that I, for one, will never forget. Louis Giglio, Chris Tomlin and FEE came with a message of grace, love and purpose for one’s life, and rocked the socks off every person in that auditorium at the Gallagher! I’ve had the privilege to see many of the world’s most famous rock-and-roll bands performing live i.e. Metallica, Collective Soul, Seether, etc. And they were impressive, but these guys made them seem like puppies!!! They rocked like never before!!!
In Louis’ words:
“Honestly, I’m not sure I can sum up today in a simple blog post, but let’s just say from 10AM, when “Hello JoBurg” hit the screens, it was on, and things just kept building right through to the end. And all day long the cross was huge, and the belief that this beautiful nation and its people are on the brink of something large, holding in their hands the hope of a nation that very well might be the hope of a continent, fueled our worship.
God is alive in SA and raising up a beautiful generation of God-lovers in this nation. It’s real. It’s His grace. It’s what God is doing. And it’s an awesome thing. We have seen their faces, heard their prayers, felt their love and sensed that they are poised to take their place in this unstoppable Church Jesus is building here and around the globe. And we are with them, and all of you who want to live to make Jesus famous in this generation!
“Take my life and let it be all for You and for Your glory, take my life and let it be Yours!””
I believe the profoundness of Louis’ message lay in its simplicity. IT’S ALL ABOUT GOD AND MAKING THE NAME OF JESUS FAMOUS!!!
He quoted Isa 26:8 (the scripture that 268-generation holds dearest to its heart) which starts with the phrase “Yes Lord” – calling us all into action. He made us/me realise the amazing grace that we have in God. That, no matter who you are, or what you’ve done, you are freed by what Christ did on the cross. The cross became the focal point of his sermon, rightfully so.
THE INNOCENT WAS MADE GUILTY TO SET THE GUILTY FREE!! God paid the price for our freedom. We are no longer bound by sin. “One died for all, so all could live for one”. This reminded me of the musketeer slogan “One for all, and all for one”. Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for us; all we need to do is live for Him.
He made me realise that the purpose of life lies in the relationship of the cross. We have a vertical relationship with Jesus and a horizontal relationship with everyone on earth. We have but one command; to spread the gospel of Jesus – to “MAKE JESUS FAMOUS”!!!
It’s time to stand and be counted. To not merely live a long life, but a meaningful one. Our lives are but seconds in history; a pixel in the picture of this world. Our flames burn out in an instant, but when two flames become one (when your flame burns with the eternal flame of Christ), His light will shine through you into all eternity.
Now this is not to say that accepting Christ will make all your problems disappear. Jesus Himself said in John 16:33:
“I have told you this, so that you might have peace in your hearts because of me. While you are in this world, you will suffer. But cheers up! I have defeated the world.”
You see, Jesus doesn’t take us around the fire; He carries us through it!
It is OK to be confused and not have it all together. Chris Tomlin mentioned that none of us, not even he or Louis, has it all together, but that we serve the One who keeps it all together. Another friend once told me to remember that this life is not the promise, but that it is a process of preparation for the promise – AN ETERNITY WITH CHRIST!!!
So, to quote Uncle Angus, “keep on, keeping on” and remember:
MAKE JESUS FAMOUS!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:36 AM
Thank you for a really wonderful day. Please come visit SA again soon. :)
2 things that was my highlights:
1. Thank you for reminding us that we are saying yes to Jesus, not a plan, not a blueprint, not details, but to JESUS!!!
2. I heard the song God of the city before but when we sang it on Saturday I trully felt in my spirit that it is a prophecy for our country: Greater things are yet to come and greater things are still to be done in this city and this country.
Praise the wonderful name of Jesus!!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:40 AM
Passion’s was amazing. I have never felt God’s Spirit as (wow there isn’t a word to discribe the magnificence of it, of Him), well like i did that night.
I saw somthing that night that is really difficult to put into words, but i want to share it.
It happened just after the ‘passion style’ praying, we were asked to pray about our nation. After the prayers stoped, i carried on praying and i saw the most amazing thing. I saw Sputh Africa, like you would on a map. I saw Jo’burg and Cape Town highlighted on this map and from these to places, it was like a chain reaction, as if the ripples form these two night carried over the whole of South Africa. It was unbelievable. I wish i had the word to describe exactly what it was that i saw. all i know is that this is drastic. Passions has started something in South Africa, it started it in these two small places, and the Glory of God is going to travel across this place. Greater thing are yet to come, greater thing are yet to be done, in this NATION! I can not wait!!!!
I’m writing this and i’m shaking from the excitement. I can barely stay in my seat. I want to shout the at the top of lungs, i want to exclaim the Glory of GOD.
Passions was life changing. Passion is nation changing!
ALL THE GLORY TO GOD!!! FOREVER!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 7:46 AM
oh my word this was an amazing time! i had so much fun worshipping God with friends and 6000 of my brothers and sisters in Christ! and louie’s message was possitively life changing!
lets keep praying that this wasn’t just an awesome event, but a life, city and country changing phenomenon for all, that there would be a ripple effect! let a revival break out in our country!
God bless you guys!

wow. I can’t get over how awesome GOD is. thank you to all involved in the passion movement, your faith and passion for God is amazing.
The conference has really taken me back to a place of contemplating the cross. I can’t fully explain what a difference this has made in my life and how you as a team were used to touch people’s lives.
“take my life and let it be, all for You and for Your glory. Take my life and let it be Yours”
thanx, will be praying for Cape Town for the next couple of days.

HEY……… Passion all-day event, just reminded me of WHO GOD TRUELLY IS.. funny thing is that at first I did not want to go, but realised that its all for GOD and not about me… I guess prayers from Indonesia truelly were answered as MY HEART WAS CHANGED.

Thanx guys for the awesome day!!!!! May God be eith you all as you prepare for Cape Town. We’ll be praying for you…
Much love and thankgiving

Hey you all..
thanks for a day in the life of a Christian where everybody could see that the Kingdom of God came close.. Im so glad that God can hear a thought and a silent prayer becaus I totaly lost my voice with “Glory to God… forever” and Sing sing sing. thanks FEE and Chris Louie.
At this moment in reading Revolution, George Barna’s new book, and he realy gets it.. we are the the generation that seeks God and his Bride more than looking for a pasive Church. Not a religion but a NEW LIFE.. thank you for showing me (and I think I am not the only one) that I am not alone feeling like this..
Lets show the world His Love
Lets reflect His Majesty
2gether in His Service
Prays be to God only..

August 11th, 2008 at 8:11 AM
HOW on earth can one describe the power of Christ and the experience that we had on Saturday?? So many people ask me how it was??? Wat can I say?? I don’t think there is any word in the whole dictionary that can describe the experience of Saturday. And I only volunteered!!! All the glory to God our Father in heaven. Louie and your team, you were great!!!! God bless you for everything you do!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 8:18 AM
A great reminder to make this 5 second life count…i left there knowing that God has chosen me to be the one carrying the ministry of reconciliation…Reconcile Jo’burg to her God, her one and only God-JESUS…thanks Loiue and the team for that great reminder…Big UP!
August 11th, 2008 at 8:19 AM
Thanks for an awesome day!
You guys know how to awaken a generation.
I never knew worship could be so good.
Thanks for making the cross real!
“Your grace is enough!”
August 11th, 2008 at 8:22 AM
We ARE IN Revival South Africa!!! I believe that if everybody take Saturdays message and make it his/her own, God will keep his promise and let His Fire fall on South Africa.
Saturday was one of the highlites of my Christian life. I wish everybody this feeling of freedom and exitement for the future of our country and believe that God is already busy with his BIG plan for us.
Thanx Louie and team for the role that you played in God’s plan and I BLESS you and your team with all the power and knowlegde to impact the rest of the world as you did with us.
GOD BLESS!!
August 11th, 2008 at 8:24 AM

I am a missionary, part of a ministry art team called 13th Floor! I have been living here for 11 months and I have seen God do wonders in this country!

August 11th, 2008 at 8:27 AM
I am changed forever after what God did on Saturday… to see a generation of believers who are not afraid to say YES LORD has left me so moved and inspired to reach out more… to Jesus…. to people who don’t know Him…. and to people who have lost their way…
Thank you for changing a life!
August 11th, 2008 at 8:27 AM
IT was GREAT! THE BEST EVER!
We are planning to fly to Cape Town to go to passion once again. IF our finances allow it. It was an awesome experience with God. We sang or rather shouted so loud that our voices are still gone – and it is Monday already. We are still on a high, but that is a HOly Spirit high. We really love God and it was once again an experience with God which cannot be explained. Blessing to the Passion team and everyone who was there. We are praying for you!
August 11th, 2008 at 8:28 AM
My thanx to the passion team you guys have encouraged me and our generation.
“To live the truth and not only know it.”
Cape Town we are praying for you and Gods challenge to you I believe as well is can you live it.
Hope you guys down there have a great time becuase I am still having a great time. Knowing that saterday was not just one huge fussy(emotional high I mean). NO it was wake up call. So that I can wake up and let Christ’s light shine shine shine.
“Look I am with you till the end of the age”
AMEN
August 11th, 2008 at 8:31 AM

Thank you Passion Team.
What a awesome experience it was. The Lord is truly AMAZING and His grace is @ work here in SA.
JESUS LIVES!!!!!!! and we will praise him.
God bless the rest of your tour. And Cape Town were prayin…
August 11th, 2008 at 8:57 AM
What an AWESOME experience!!! The Holy Spirit was truly present in Gallagher Estate. Many lives were changed.
Thanks for your willingness to do the work of our Father. Your humbleness really touched my heart.
ALL FOR JESUS!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 9:02 AM
Thanks be to God in all his glory for bringing the passion team to Jozi.
The reality of Grace hit me so hard I was breathless. For a long time in my life, I was very much like Ashley. My road to discovering Jesus was a bit different to hers, but her story just made me realise how sad and empty life used to be without him in my life and how grateful I am that I now know him and not just of him. Sometimes guilt still creeps up on me, but then I just remember Grace…and I smile again… I get it. I get the Cross and I get Grace and WOW are we lucky to have such a loving and forgiving Father!
Cape Town, all of Joburg’s prayers are with you…and I can’t help but feel a slight twinge of envy – you guys are in for a ride!
Thank you Louie and all of the passion team.
And thank you Jesus for sending them to South Africa.
Blessed be your journey, we are all praying for you guys!
YES LORD!!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 9:10 AM
You guys are still making me cry……
August 11th, 2008 at 9:12 AM
Hi
What can I say there is no one like my God!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday was my 9th year anniversary of giving my life to God, and what a way to celebrate it the day before with 12hours of just Jesus and no one else, just 6000 people feeling what I was feeling.
Thank you the whole passion team, it’s been a life changing experience, that I will never forget.
For the first time did I really get what grace is and how to surrender.
May everything we do in our life be to glorify the King of Kings.
What a Indescribable God do we serve.
May God bless the team, Cape Town be ready to glorify the mighty God we serve.
“My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
and like a flood His mercy rains
Unending love, amazing grace”
What more can I say!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God bless
Jesus Love
August 11th, 2008 at 9:14 AM

August 11th, 2008 at 9:19 AM
I cant help but sing sing sing!!!!!!! i can’t believe I was at Gallagher estates well my wrist band is living proof n my overwhelmed heart, i have always wanted to be part of Passion World Tour from the moment i watched ‘ONE DAY’ i can still remember everthing about that Dvd and many others that i watched, i am grateful that i went, the funny and true thing about is that i have been a christian for 8yrs nw, but everytime i am in God’s presence it feels like the first, feels like i could just stay there and forget the world exist and everrthing be all about him. i am reaaallllllllyyy prepared to be the FRUITCAKE, i sometimes dont minister to people because i have my friends and family that are christians and i just thought my life was sorted but i didnt realise how much what i knw can make a great change in someone’s life, now its about High time i LIVE A LIFE THAT COUNTS FOR SOMETHING. I couldnt stop crying on Saturday when we worshiped the Lord, i kept on wondering if that felt so goooood, how goooooooood is heaven.
now its all about God, living a purpose diven life.
‘TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE ALL FOR YOU AND FOR YOUR GLORY, TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE YOURS!!!’
SO NOW lOUIE I AM GONA MAKE SURE THAT WE DO WAY BETA THAN 900.
with my wrist band turned inside out i am praying for Cape Town!!!! You beta come hungry, the spirit is gona filll you.
I am so haaaaaaapppppyyyyy.!!!
I love you all, will meet ya al in Heaven
August 11th, 2008 at 9:20 AM
wow! how awesome it was to have 6000 young people gather for Jesus and his renown! it really encouraged my heart to see every person’s face and my prayer is that our lights will continue to shine every single day in SA, ’cause our nation needs it and God’s awesome grace.
PRAISE GOD FOR HIS FAITHFULNESS AND THE GRACE HE HAS ALREADY SHOWN US!
thank you Passion team for your commitment to shine Jesus’ light – we appreciate the love that compels you to do this tour. may God bless you and keep you, may He cause his face to shine upon you and give you peace!

August 11th, 2008 at 9:28 AM
There are no words that can describe what I experienced @ Passion.
I am still trying to take in everything I experienced.
Never before have I been @ a conference where everything is just about God and not about what I need. We serve an Amazing God and nothing could fulfill me more than worshipping Him and being in His presence like @ Passion.
The worship was awesome and the lyrics are powerful. Chris and his team and do not forget FEE has an amazing gift and I am truly blessed to have worshipped with you guys.
Louie – Thank you for bringing Passion to South Africa. You have an amazing way in communicating the word of God. It becomes real and opens new ways of thinking and makes God’s name famous.
Let God’s light shine over all the earth for He outshines the sun.
August 11th, 2008 at 9:33 AM
WOW! I’m speechless… Saturday was just incredible! To have an oppertunity to humble ourselves before our King and to worship Him in Spirit & Truth… sho, there is just NOTHING like it on earth! We truly serve an AMAZING & WONDERFUL GOD!!!
Passion team – Thank you SOOOO MUCH! You really blessed us and made it an unforgetable day in the presence of our Almighty GOD! To Him be all the Glory and Honour forever and ever, AMEN!
Cape Town get ready!!! Open up your Spirit and be ready to receive a life changing gift from our King… His Grace! :-)

August 11th, 2008 at 9:56 AM
Working is a new experience. I was so frustrated with my job and prayed for new opportunities and God just showed me that i have a purpose here. There may be stress, but it doesn’t turn into worries.I have more patience for those around me who don’t believe. I know how lucky I am to know Jesus and to have fellowship with other believers, so I’m not easily worried now.
Just keep singing singing singing…
August 11th, 2008 at 10:00 AM

Hi Passion team,
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart that u are such a blessing to us. Thank u for being willing to serve and for making God first. The one thing that caught my attention the most was the fact that u glorified God above all. It wasnt about ur fame or glory. May God bless u for that. I’m praying for u every time I look at my wristband and hope that u will make this gr8 an impact wherever u go. God bless u and keep u, let Him make His face shine upon u and give u peace wherever u go.
Luv
Renata

Wawaweewa!
The flame has been ignited and it is up to us to see it fan into a raging inferno. Thanks to the Passion team for being so faithfull and being diligent in the pursuit of His presence, I hope we can all follow your example!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:05 AM

Hi Passion Team!!!!
When I heard about Passion I had no idea who you guys were but I knew I had to come and I’m grateful I did.Firstly, I would like to thank you for choosing JOZI………because there are greater things to be done in this city.
Louie no-one has explained the grace of God, the Passion of Christ the way you did.I thank you for that because now I know AND I understand fully the price and what Jesus did for MY SINS on the cross.He is truly the author of salvation.
The worship sessions were Amazing, both bands.
But Fee you guys summarised my life purpose and one of the reasons why I was there with the song: Glory to God forever, take my life and
May God bless you all and be with you during your World tour, and PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE come again because there are many people who didn’t come and wish they did.
To the people in Cape Town , you don’t want to miss out!!!
All the best!!!

P.S:Thanx for posting my picture up on your website:)
August 11th, 2008 at 10:18 AM
Jesus truly rules this world!
We’re in it… so let’s shine
We’re not of it… so let’s stay focussed on God’s true goal for our lives: Love Him and love others!
Be blessed
Know that God cannot be contained in a box
So allow Him the place that He died for to be in your life
I LOVE YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:19 AM
WOW! I’m speechless… Saturday was just incredible! To have an oppertunity to humble ourselves before our King and to worship Him in Spirit & Truth… sho, there is just NOTHING like it on earth! We truly serve an AMAZING & WONDERFUL GOD!!!
Passion team – Thank you SOOOO MUCH! You really blessed us and made it an unforgetable day in the presence of our Almighty GOD! To Him be all the Glory and Honour forever and ever, AMEN!

August 11th, 2008 at 10:21 AM
I’ve been looking at this blog throughout this whole day and I just can’t stop reading all the comments!
All that I can say is GLORY to GOD for igniting His flame in so many young people! May this wave keep on rolling and may we all keep on burning for Him!
WE CAN CHANGE THIS NATION!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:24 AM
loved it when Steven introduced himself like that, this is bordering on obsession, the whole day i keep visiting this blog and everytime i like ok this it no more, then 10min later im back on, crazy crazy stuff,
Mr Giglio let me start by saying you have the most beautiful smile ever, and your love for God and people is so evident, its like all over your face, thank you so much for being so relevant
eternity is going to be one big party, i tell you, can you guys just imagine, not really hey, none of us can really fathom the depthness of God’s love, and to think that all the songs we jam to and this beauty all around us was/is His expression, God is deep friends,
Jesus Messiah, name above all names, Emmanuel, who can grasp your infinite wisdom,
Lets go out there and make a difference, Jozi is known as the city of gold, land of opportunity, HOW COOL WOULD IT BE IF JOZI WAS KNOWN AS THE CITY OF GOD, WHERE PEOPLE COME TO BE TAUGHT ABOUT GRACE AND HIS UNENDING LOVE, WHERE PEOPLE WITNESS GOD IN ACTION FROM JUST WATCHING US YOUNG PEOPLE GO ABOUT DOING GOD’S BUSINESS, BEING FRUITCAKES OF NOTE, JUST IMAGINE.
thank you Lord for making it possible for the passion team to come to our shores, we will meet again im sure.
August 11th, 2008 at 10:26 AM
Hi Guys, thanks a million for allowing yourselves to be used by God in this way..God really blew my mind through this conference. We drove all the way from Botswana to be there and it was worth the drive.
On the way to Jhb my friend Keli and I were saying that we wanna start living lives that are set apart..we were talking bout how mind blowing the statement “to die is to gain and to live is Christ” is..just to find out that the whole theme of the conference is to make this life count for Christ..
We got into the car at 5 o’clock on sunday and drove all the way back to Bots so that we could make it to church and tell everyone what we learnt at Passions and how it has impacted our lives, we are still talking about it..i dont think we are going to shut up anytime soon..best of all we are talking about how amazing our heavenly father is..
Thank you once again for your humility and your willingness to be used..
August 11th, 2008 at 10:29 AM
Not only is it that “Passion loves Africa” but Africa also loves Passion!
My prayer is that the momentum that was build up in JHB will not stop here, but that it keeps going and keeps building momentum so that the City of JHB and Pretoria will truly live for God’s glory and that South Africa will be known as a country that is not ashamed of Jesus and that He is the reason what we’re living for.
Cape Town: We’re praying for you quys and make sure to come ready !!!
To the Passion team:
May the LORD bless you and keep you may He shine His face upon you, so that the rest of the tour will even be more amazing, and that you might find rest and strength in Him – our only hope and glory
Thanks it was great
May this only be the start of things to come !!!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:30 AM
All I can say is WOW.
Saturday was great!! And it was amazing to feel and experience God’s love around us, the love of the cross and of Jesus.
Thanks so much to the whole team for bringing Passion to SA and making it possible for us to experience such an amazing event. It was really AWESOME.
Take care and God Bless.
August 11th, 2008 at 10:32 AM
I can’t help to come to this site all the time to see what is going on!! The whole day I’m trying to study, but cannot get my mind off of what happend Saturday!!! Louie, I’ve downloaded all the podcasts and it’s great!!!! Yesterday in our church here in Pochefstroom there was something different than before: The worship was great because we sang the songs from Saturday (it was very special)!! But it was not just the songs, but the people’s faces and confessions that was AMAZING!!! Something GREAT is going to happen to Potch!! I can feel it!!! Again thank you for a GREAT experience!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:33 AM
I’m still singing songs from Saturday in my head :)
It was awesome!
The message that passion delivers is eating away at me. I can’t sit still and let my flame die out without setting others on fire for our Saviour!!!
It is a tremendous blessing that we have all been granted guys, to be “Christ significant” people in the world…to say, “YES, Lord!”
Let us not falter as the immediate excitement and conviction perhaps gets jaded by life’s obstacles. Instead, let’s make a commitment. One that’s worthy of Jesus!!!!
Let’s be more
Let’s be a 268 generation!!!
Hang in there Cape Town…You’re going to be blessed out of your socks!!!
We’re praying for you!
August 11th, 2008 at 10:33 AM
WOW, WOW, WOW…
I still can’t get Saturday out of my mind…
What a MIND-BLOWING, EARTH-SHATTERING GLORIOUS DAY OF AMAZING WORSHIP!!!!
That you to the Passion team for a truly marvelous day!
GOD’s flame was ignited, and I GOT IT!!!!!
We’ll be praying for Cape Town!
What a Glorious, Spectacular GOD we worship!!
GLORY TO GOD, GLORY TO GOD, GLORY TO GOD, FOREVER!!!!!!!
Passion, may GOD bless you as you continue your journey, and PLEASE come again soon!!
Make JESUS famous!!

All I can say is WOW!!!! Praise goes to our amazing and almighty God for setting up such an event! The conference was absolute amazing. To hear the very core of our religion in such an amazing way was a true blessing and gift from God. Thanks for all the hard work and effort that went into the planning and execution of the Passion Tour. May God bless you on your journey through the world and into people’s hearts!

August 11th, 2008 at 11:18 AM
you know.. this Passions conference was something really God ordained. I only found out about it friday evening and i realised that an opportunity like this doesnt come often. one thing that really hit home from this whole event was that God spoke to everyone individually. you listen to everyone in worship, and it just hits you so hard to think that God is speaking to everyone individually and personally. You dont feel like you share God – you feel like he’s all yours… which just brings about that reality on how big our GOD REALLY IS!!!!
I must also say that this has opened me up again and really made the soil ready to reap its seed!
Cape Town – I Know that God will be there for you as He was there for US! With prayer by OUR side, nothing can stop THESE WHEELS FROM TURNING!!!
August 11th, 2008 at 11:18 AM
I’ll echo Louie’s sentiments about the Steve Fee Band. Student after student asked if David was going to be there and when they found out that Steve was the “replacement” they were a bit dejected. But we just told them, “wait until you hear them.” By the middle of the first set and certainly by the end of the night, though DCB couldn’t be there, they forgot all about it a
