The Heavenly Man
June 1st 7.30pm at the Greenway Centre
Come and hear the amazing story of Brother Yun, author of the
book “The Heavenly Man”.
After many years imprisoned for his faith, Brother Yun escaped
from Zhengzhou Maximum Security prison from which it is reported that nobody
had previously escaped. He described how he heard the voice of the Holy
Spirit, telling him to simply walk out of the heavily guarded prison gate despite
having had both his legs broken. “If God can release me from the solitary
confinement of China’s highest security prison,” he declares, “then He can
certainly release you from whatever is holding you.”
