102nd International Assembly, Saturday Evening Session (2024)

Saturday evening, the Bahama Brass Band once again marched in playing lively, Bahamian-style music. Bishop Tim Coalter made a presentation to the Band’s directors, David Beneby and Barry Morris, in recognition of the Bahama Brass Band’s 100 years of ministry. The general presbyter for Caribbean and Atlantic Ocean Islands, Bishop Dr. Clayton Martin, joined Bishop Coalter during the presentation. Panama National Bishop Rupert Neblett promoted “The 1500” initiative, explaining that giving $200, representing $50 for each of the four days of the Assembly, would help defray the cost. Bishop Neblett announced the various ways to give. A young boy, Carter Patterson, prayed for the offering. The United Kingdom Mass Choir sang four songs. Africa General Presbyter Bishop James Kolawole introduced Revered Dr. Cathy Payne as the evening speaker. Dr. Payne presented four dynamic healing testimonies—one of which was a video testimony from Wider Europe—facilitated by Bishop Bill and Donna Vines. Dr. Payne preached, “On Mission to Heal,” followed by a powerful time of healing prayer for hundreds who came forward.
