Diary of God's Generals: Excerpts from the Miracle Ministry of John G. Lake

A leader of the 20th century Pentecostal movement, John G. Lake (1870-1935) was a renowned divine healing minister and missionary who traveled the world proclaiming healing. Beginning in 1908, he lived as missionary in South Africa and started more than 700 churches where miracles became commonplace. After ministering throughout the United States and England, Rev. Lake relocated in 1914 to Spokane, Washington, where he opened healing rooms and trained healing technicians. He later duplicated the work in Portland, Oregon. Rev. Lake went on to establish churches, healing rooms, and healing campaigns along the California coast as well as in Houston, Texas. More than 250,000 confirmed healings were documented during a 10-year span of his ministry.
