After Mrs. Pistolero made the introduction, I took the floor and started sharing the word of God. (I have learned that she has already told the pupils about me.)
As an opening I said: "Do you want to become Superman?" Upon hearing this the pupils all yelled,

Many other related ideas were presented to the pupils which were accepted by the pupils as shown by their bright facial countenance. Of course, everything was presented to them using the common language of the children of 11 -12 years old.
After the sharing of the word which lasted for about 30 minutes, the sharing of the gift was made. The pupils numbering about 60 of them were so enthusiastic in forming their line so they could take their turn in sharing the gift. After this, we proceeded to the healing proper.
And, I said: "to show to you that you have now the initial power of a superman, you will be the one to heal the sickness of your classmates." Then, I asked, "Who among you have some sickness?" Several raised their hands, so I called one to take the seat provided in front of the class and called also one who was interested to try the healing. I explained to everyone the procedure of the healing.
Then the healing was conducted with a pupil doing it. After mentioning the formula three times: "In the name of Jesus Emmanuel Jehovah Zebaoth you are healed" followed by a breath on the head, the sick person was asked of his status or if the pain he was suffering was still there. When he said there was no more pain, all the pupils shouted in excitement and amazement. After this, everyone wanted to try; unfortunately there were only about a dozen who were suffering some sort of illness among the pupils. But I told them they can also do it to themselves or to the other members of their families.
After the healing I encouraged the pupils to take good care of the name of Jesus. They promise they would. I also advised them that the name of Jesus can be called upon help in all problems. I encouraged them further that they can increase their power by loving their neighbors and God above all, by always calling the name of Jesus in times of joy and sadness and told them that they should always remain as good children of their parents.
I left them so happy and they could not stop waving the hands until I disappeared completely at the corner of the main road. A month after that event, I meet Dorothy again. She has been so enthusiastic in relating her experience with the kids and the reaction of some of the parents.
She related that after 2 weeks about 10 parents came to her to ask what she taught to their children. She inquired why at first. The parents related that there was a considerable change in the behavior of their children. The parents said that their children are now the one who asked them to say the thanksgiving before and after every meal, they lead in the prayer before going to bed and many more that surprised them much.
Dorothy also related that when they had the intramural in the school, one pupil was stoned by his classmate and was hit in the head. Many students were in confusion because there was much blood oozing from the head of the boy. Several of her students rushed to the place of the incident and laid their hands on the boy in the name of Jesus. Suddenly the oozing of blood stopped.
Dorothy was so thankful for her boys and kept on praising God. Since that time on, I was harboring a strong desire to approach the school leaders to asked them a chance to interact with the pupils but I could not just have the time. I strongly believe that it is much easier to preach the word of God to the young people than the older one. But those who need most healing are those older ones because they are exposed more to the world." (December 12, 2010)
