What Others Are Saying About Amira Perera
"Amira's perseverance in prayer, and through suffering, is matched by few others. She, as she puts it, 'shakes the pants leg of God' until her prayers are answered, whether for herself or for those around her. She also has an extraordinary ability to talk with all kinds of people about Jesus Christ and the difference He makes in our lives. She has much to share with the church about living out our faith."
Susan McLeod-Harrison,
M.Div.
"I have been acquainted with Amira for many years as a voice teacher and a friend. I have consistently experienced her as a person of honesty and integrity. Through every decision Amira has made, her first step was to pray for God's guidance. Her life is rooted in prayer and obedience to God's Will."
Maureen Edwards,
voice instructor
"I think that one of the most amazing things about Amira is that despite her circumstances (one of the biggest of which would be her health) she has managed to prevail. This is I believe due to her intercessory prayers to God."
Paul Wynne,
co-leader of bible study
"Amira has been very effective at helping immigrants adjust to Canadian culture. She displays a remarkable ability to relate to people where they are at, and to demonstrate compassions across all cultural, social, and economic barriers. And she has displayed a remarkable resilience and determination in the face of extreme odds and adversity, to achieve goals and to be joyful in the pursuit of such. She always displays a supportive and positive team spirit."
