    “The number of Christians has increased because of what we teach in DMM. It is what saves and changes people’s lives. Disciples that I teach in DMM are really bearing fruit. They go the extra mile to teach others. Those others go and bring others, and the chain goes on. Consequently, the number of Christians is increasing every day! DMM has greatly contributed to that!”
