Festivals of Light are born out of a leading that the Lord put on the heart of M300 Ministries Founder/Director Wayne Gaines. While in prayer early one morning, during a walk in the mountains Wayne was seeking the Lord's leading and His direction. As a beautiful Fall sunrise shown over the valley a still quiet voice uttered, "If you will show them "The True Light" they will come to me!" Being a detail oriented person Wayne pressed for more detail on this understanding from God. It quickly became evident that we are to celebrate the fact that Jesus Christ the Son of the Living God Jehovah, is the True Light of the world and that those of us in Him are also to be lights to those around us. God gently said, "Celebrate this!" With this beautiful simplicity and leading came God's leading to host Festivals of Light around the world.

   The Lord has enabled us to hold Festivals of Light in Pakistan, Bangladesh, India and coming up in Myanmar. Over the past few weeks nearly 600 people have came running to The Light of the World Jesus Christ and these people have claimed Him as their own. God's Mighty Warriors and Valiant Warriors at M300 Ministries many times serve at the risk of their own blood and for them we are truely grateful that they seek out God's leading for extended periods as they practice fasting prayer prior to facilitating such outreaches.
    The funding for these outreaches up until now has come very sacrificially from sources that have given not out of an abundance but rather out of their own need. We truely believe that the Lord is blessing His Festivals of Light. Evidence of this is that nearly 50% of the people gathered come to Christ and call upon His name for salvation. Jesus is working miracles in our times as Festivals of Light are very openly accepted as a time of celebration, sharing, kindness to children and families as well as a time for Jesus to use the Asian practice of "Diwali" to show Himself as the True Light of the World. We encourage you to go and read John 1, 1 John 1 and Ephesians 5 to come to understand better the basis for how God is celebrating His only begotten Son as the one to whom all power and authority has been given.
