In February 2013 they arrived in Uganda, enroute to South Sudan, with suitcases filled with shoes, Bibles and sheets. After fulfilling their commitments there, they were driving through the city of Mukono when Denver looked at the mass of humanity. In a city of 2 million, the streets and sidewalks were crowded with traffic, pedestrians and heat. "As I looked out over all those people, I felt overwhelmed with the love of God," Denver remembers. "I preached on the finished work of Jesus. Before we left, we were asked to come back the following year and preach an eight-day believers' convention. I knew in that moment God was giving me a second chance to answer the call on my life. My answer would change our lives and change eternity. I would never turn away from that call again." When they returned home, Denver recalls, people in Africa started contacting him on Facebook. "They said they heard me preach and wanted me to come teach the pastors in their villages. That began our ministry, Loving the Majesty Ministries. It grew from six weeks the first year to three months the next year. Now we go for six months each year. "Over the last 10 years, we've ministered in 37 villages in Uganda, Rwanda and Kenya, using interpreters to translate our messages in 10 different languages. Stacey, who used to be shy, takes the microphone and preaches her heart out. In addition to pastors' and believers' conventions for adults, we've also developed children's crusades. Like the vision God gave me, we've seen thousands of children worshipping God. "All over Africa you see signs saying that God is great. But they're referring to Allah. We tell them the truth. 'There is no God named Allah. You pray the same words five times a day. Nobody hears you because Mohammed is dead. We pray without ceasing because Jesus was raised from the dead. God is with us.' In the last five years, we have seen 2,974 accept Jesus." During KCM's Anchorage Victory Campaign, Kenneth Copeland laid hands on Denver and Stacey, and prophesied that they function in the fivefold ministry. "You are apostles to the nations, and you are pastors to pastors and apostles to children," he told them. "The uncompromising Word of God taught by KCM changed our lives," Denver says. "The anointing on this ministry is so strong that I've gone to Africa and preached sermons I've never heard. Later, back home, I hear the same message being taught by Kenneth, Jerry Savelle and Jesse Duplantis. That's the anointing that comes on me through partnership with this ministry." If there's one thing that Denver and Stacey Urlaub want you to know, it's this: It's never too late to live by faith. We've ministered in 37 villages in Uganda, Rwanda and Kenya, using interpreters to translate our messages in 10 different languages. B V O V : 2 5
