Over time now, Mighty men are served and encouraged on this platform. E.g. the For (Mighty) men only group. Have a look at the earlier posts on  MMC 2007 of two years back.

Then just a recap of last year's  MMC 2008 highlights on this platform:

• Here is a good example by the hour of what happened while the men start traveling for the weekend and how the ladies (and men) experience the diference when back. Yes our medium here allow the next generations to re-experience this amazing event, see: Praise God for what happened on the MMC 2008 Mighty Men Conference on a Greytown Farm

Then there is also the official Website of Angus: Official shalomtrust website

Thought this Mighty men videos on on UTube is worth sharing:(But be forwarned it is not small)

Please uncle Angus, could you please come visit us in Bothaville.
All our men are on their way to the MMC 2009 and I wish I could go with.

Bless this weekend God and empower Angus with the Holy Spirit so that he can save hunderds of men. Thank you also for sending Angus Buchan to our world, i have never met him but it would be my greatest wish if he could come to my town and preach for us.

I so badly need him to preach for hope, stronger faith and everything God that You know i and the rest of Bothaville needs.

Uncle Angus, thank you for your messages on TV, you have brought me closer to Christ just through that.

Lots of Love Antoinette 083 395 1091

I heard from relatives in UK about Angus being taken ill.We are praying for him and God's work in Africa. I've also spread the word with Christians on Twitter.

My prayer:

God bless you Angus, as he always has. May he hold you and heal you. Dear Father, we pray you haven't finished with Angus yet! We join our brothers and sisters in prayer for our faithful servant Angus. Amen.

Greetings,
Peter (GoGod)

Daar is seker baie dinge wat gese kan word oor die naweek van MMC09. Maar voor daar enige uitlatings gemaak word deur mense wat nie daar was nie is dit dalk 'n beter opsie om op jul knee te gaan en die Hemelse Vader te vra om 'n wag voor jul mond te sit. Oom Angus was nie die rede dat al daai mense so ver gery het om die MMC09 by te woon nie. Hy is slegs die spreek buis van GOD. (Soos Angus self gese het The delivery boy)'n Mens gaan tog nie na 'n konferensie om gelei te word as die Leier nie daar is nie.

I heard so many stories from people regarding the MMC but I was fortunate enough to witness it myself.
I am glad to tell all that I was not dissappointed in the least; on the contrary, I experienced a whole lot more.
I have now got more faith then ever before and feel like a new man. Thank you to not only Uncle Angus but to all the men that were around me for bringing me closer to Jesus.
My life changed from that moment and I will do everything possible to spread the word of Jesus.
I LOVE JESUS!!!!!

What an AWESOME weekend!!! Im a changed man.
Thank you Angus Buchan that you are willing to be used by God as one of His messangers.

I could feel God's presence so strong at the Camp, now the its up to us men to keep God in our hearts and homes. We must be strong in faith, Satan will try his best to lead us away from God, as uncle Angus said, we will have trails and turbulations, but we serve a living God, and He is better and bigger than Satan and his troubles. remember, you cannot stumble when you are on your knees!!! Keep praying.. "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength"

But we all must remember God is not a respecter of persons. Being a minister myself we must remember it's not about the speaker or the music. Its about God.
I see so many people running to see this person or that person but its about where God chooses to be.

We are all mere men being used by the Spirit of God as the spirit chooses to use us.

Hi
Just a short message to give glory to God ad say Thanx to Angus, not only him but for the effort he made to give THE BOYS the opportunity to attend this conference and become mighty MEN for GOD!!!!   Myself and my husband were having difficult times in our marriage and we were on the verge of a Divorce.  WOW!  When he came bach from the Mighty Mens he was a changed Man and a Christian Man believe it or Not. 

ALL MY THANX AND PRAYERS TO YOU OOM ANGUS and it definitely gave US Hope.

AMEN

'n Baie groot dankie aan Oom Angus en al die mense wat dit moontlik gemaak het om daar te kon wees. Die geriewe was baie beter as verlede jaar en ons groep van Pretoria het dit baie geniet.

Ja, die beste was dat ons elke keer die teenwoordigheid van die Here so tasbaar kon ervaar. Praise GOD, He is AWESOME!

Die Grootheid van God kon die naweek weer ervaar word. Die MMC09 was weer vir my 'n herlaaiing van my mens wees op aarde. God se teenwoordigheid kon 'n mens daar aanvoel - die brissie wat Angus van gepraat het.

Angus het gese: "Dink julle daar gaan sokker gespeel word by al hierdie stadions wat gebou word - NEE, dit gaan plekke word van aanbidding". Ek glo en ek bid dat God dit gaan laat gebeur. Het jy al gedink hoe dit gaan wees as al hierdie stadions wat nou gebou en opgradeer word elke Sondag stampvol gaan wees vir aanbidding en lofsang!!

PRYS DIE HERE VIR SO IETS WAT EK GLO GAAN GEBEUR. AMEN!!!! AMEN!!!! AMEN!!!!

Ons bid vir al die MMC mense en helpers en veral oom Angus, of hy stroke gehad het al dan nie, en my gebed is dat mense wat SULKE propaganda begin en vesprei, nie ongestraf sal bly nie.

Oom Angus is 'n Godsman en sal hom nie deur sulke propaganda laat onderkry nie. AMEN!!!

This was the beginning of a new beginning. from the time that we left the Freestate for Greytown, there were miracles.
Then as a father, I had my son (25) with me. Standing ground with my son, was everything one could ask. My son gave his heart to the Lord on the first night, amen!!
It will always be, a weekend to be remembered. God, bless everybody that was there.
If there will be a 2010 MMC, we will be there.
Thank you

What a Mighty God we serve!  I have to share something with all of you men who were at MMC09. You may recall the anxious moments we all experienced when brought together at the stage on Saturday afternoon to pray for Angus who fell ill. Just after we formed small groups to pray for Angus - (May I add that the presence of the Holy Spirit was tangibly there - very powerfull prayers. GOD WAS LISTENING VERY INTENTLY AT ALL OUR CRIES!)-  Suddenly there was a cloud that that moved before the sun. It became slightly cloudy.  As I looked up (I had dark glasses on) I saw an image that I believe God showed me.  Looking into the sun the cloud haze around the sun had an image of a FETUS.   Yes, absolutely and very definately!  I believe God showed me that what was happening at that moment (Angus being struck down) was a life changing moment for him as well as for the MMC now and in the future.  THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF NEW THINGS! The FETUS will grow!!!   How exciting to look toward the future and have promises like these.   Certainly we are men of Promise and a country of promise.

Co-incedently at the evening service Andy reminded us that what happened on Saturday is also a reminder that we have to mature as men (It is not about Angus).We cannot stay immature and keep on asking to be fead like babies. We need to take the baton and run.Shalom farm is just a blessed meeting place for our men to be refilled with new passion and drive for God's work to be done in this country and in the world.  

TO JESUS BE ALL THE GLORY!

Greetings   (next year 1/2 mil men  - what you say!)

DIE DUIWEL GAN ONS PROBEER TERUGVAT VIR HOM EN ONS GAAN HOM NIE TOELAAT NIE .

ONS KIES VIR ONS GOD!!!

n Mens kan nie ‘n saamtrek van hierdie aard bywoon sonder om ongeskonde in denke na woonplek terugkeer nie. Angus is en was vir my bysaak, maar hy bly kind van die Here – nog meer, een wat ten spyte van negatiewe publisiteit, gehoorsaam is aan die Groot Opdrag. Op dertienjarige leeftyd neem ek Jesus as Verlosser aan— ook by ‘n saamtrek, net nie so groot as die een wat ek so pas bygewoon het nie. Daar was toe ook kritiek, soos nou met Angus, teen sg opsweeping van massas, neerhalende opmerkings oor finansies ens., maar ek verkry op 13 jaar geleentheid vir ‘n ontmoeting met die Here buite die tradionele grense van die kerk. Ek sou snoeperig kon sê, dit ten spyte van jaar in en jaar uit se Sondagskoolbywoning, waarin nie een keer seker gemaak is of ek die pad na verlossing ‘weet’ of ken nie. My skrywe is nie oor die tradionele kerk se rol in ‘verlossing’ nie, maar wel in dit wat ek as Christen man tussen derduisende ander hierdie naweek beleef het. My uitnodiging kom van ‘n ex-student uit Ossieland. Ons vlieg na Durban en ry langs die Stangerkus na Greytown – drie van ons – ek die oudste. Ons slaap saam in ‘n opslaan tentjie op landgoed waar mielies geplant sou word, maar vanweë die konferensie eers volgende jaar saad sal sien. Ons eet boeliebeef, soetmielies, ingelegte vis en wat nog uit blikke; ons smag saam na vroegoggend koffie; stort ‘army style’ waar koue water snikke laat opstuig, en waar gesprekke met ongekendes aangeknoop word soos boerkinders dit van hulle ouers geleer het. Ons woon sowat twee kilometers van die arena en ken later elke klip en klyt tussen bly- en bymekaarkom plek. Dit is ‘n wonderlike gesig om mans, bejaard, jonk en nog nat agter die ore te sien opmars om die Here te gaan aanbid. Dis donker wanneer ons saans terugloop— jy sien net die ou voor jou, maar hoor die gedruis van opgewondenheid. Jy praat tot vroeg in die oggendure— niks oor jou swaarkry of lekkerkry nie, alles net oor Jesus, die Koning in jou lewe. Anders as Sondagoggende en –aande by die kerk, waar dit dikwels oor koeitjies en kalfies gaan. Ek moet erken, ek het opdraand gesien om saam met ‘n klomp Christen mans op een plek te wees, en met Angus in die omtrek. Niemand dweep nie, nie een man prober koning kraai nie— selfs nie Angus nie. Daar is net een middlepunt, Jesus. Die Saterdagoggend se byeenkoms is ‘n wonderlike seen. Die sentrale boodskap is ‘back to basics’— ‘n refleksie oor Christen man se leefwyse. Ek sal lieg as ek sê dit het my nie geraak nie; meer nog, ek was nie al wat met nat-oê voor die Here gekniel het nie. Tussen die skare mans is daar ‘n groep van 32 mans uit Ossieland, van Israel, van Engeland— ons almal iets in gemeen: mans soos kindertjies voor die Here, en seersekerlik om as mans voor die Here te verskyn. Toe kom die nuus oor Angus— dit beweeg tussen die tente oor die landerye en selfs tot in die ‘koerant-huise’ van ons stede. Onmiddelik trek duisende mans saam om in gebed te verenig. Ek het laas in my kinderjare so iets beleef toe boere op hul knieë in die stof vir rëen bid en onbeskaamd gehuil het. In teenstelling, kom mans bymekaar om Angus onemosioneel aan die Here op te dra. Die Angus-ding ruk my nie— dalk is ek te klinies oor sulke gebeure. Die Here is in beheer en die Here besluit, hoewel my gebed saam met ander nederig voor die Here se voete geplaas word. Maar, dit maak vir my meer opgewonde wat daarna volg. Daar is duisende wat saam die Here se aangesig bly soek, en, daar is ook ‘n paar wat huiswaarts keer— vir hulle is die saamtrek verby. Sesuur in skermerdonker loop duisende mans na die vergaderplek— die Here word die spil waarom alles draai. Ek beleef lofprysing soos nog nooit te vore nie. Vir ‘n uur en ‘n half, sing en bid die manlike geslag— die onmisbare teenwoordigheid van Jesus bind ons tot gelykheid, ongeag taal, ras, posisie of kerkgenoodskap. Ons sluit die aand af met Onse Vader-- meer as 150 000 mans knielend voor die Here. Al kry ek nie weer so ‘n geleentheid nie, weet ek dat ek gesig gesien het van derduisende ‘gesiglose’ mans in Suid-Afrika wat onbeskaamd hul hande na die Koning van die Konings in dankbaarheid gelig het.

Hi uncle Angus
 
I need to get this off my chest.
 
While we were attending the MMC for that whole weekend I felt free from Depression, hate, Jealousy, Homosexuality, everything that clouded my better judgment. I found that weekend the person that I have lost about 25 years ago. I cried the whole weekend of happiness. But we must not forget like you said we are there to fight a war.
 
That I realised as soon as we left. Everything crept back slowly. The worst part of it, it came back worse than it were. I am going of my head. Now it is not tears of joy but tears of sadness.
 
Let me go back to when we arrived at SHALOM.
 
The anxiety took over when we entered and I realised how many people there were. To get a place to sleep did not bother me till much later. I enjoyed the cold showers for it make you feel refreshed, and ready to take on that evenings sermon. What a experience. You could feel the air got heavy. Yet it was so peaceful. For the rest of the weekend I did not got hungry, just very thirsty. I could not turn my mind away from prayer. It was something that I have not experienced before.
 
Not one single wrong thought cross my mind while we were showering. I only realised it afterwards. I totally felt at peace and happy. For the first time in a long time I slept peacefully. And then early up and tried to be at the showers when they open. I did not even felt the cold. I stood up to accept JESUS in my life. Not one of the people around me came to speak to me. Not even my friend or any one of the group we were with. Yet it never bothered me because I knew it was between me and GOD.
 
Even when we left I was relaxed. I spoke to one of my friends and confessed to a lot of my wrongdoings. I even confessed to what happened to me when I was still at school and started to turn me in the person I became. I even got married hoping it will change. Yet I always walked around with my passed very much alive in my mind. I cant get to tell my wife for I am scared that I will loose her. She is actually the best thing that happened to me. I cant betrayed her. I don't like to hurt people. I will rather hurt myself.
 
Then all of the sudden it returned. I feel so depressed that I don't know what to do even more than it was before we left for Greytown. I cant get so far to make a appointment to see a psychiatrist. But nobody will ever know what it really is for I will never tell any of my family members I shouldn't have  told my friend either for he totally ignores me and that even hurts more.
 
I respect you and the fact that you asked me to speak to uncle Louise. But I feel to ashamed to face people. As long as I can sit behind a computer it is fine for nobody see my face. The people around me are now use to my red eyes of the crying . I told them it is because of the change of seasons.
 
Will I ever came right?
 
Regards

My family in the USA saw the movie  Faith Like Potatoes.
We enjoyed it so much   thank you for such a wonderful true story that we can say Praise
the Lord for all His marvelous works. 

The movie encouraged my heart and I know that our prayer life can be enriched much more. 
I desire to know more about you, your family and your ministry  

Thank You
