Dead at age five: Arjun Dass of Delhi, India, was electrocuted in April, 2001. A team of five led by Savitri prayed for him, and God resurrected him ten hours after his death. Also shown here is his mother, Mina. Alive at seven: Jim Rutz with Arjun, who doesn't like cameras much. It took some coaching to get a smile.

At six o'clock on an April evening in 2001, five-year-old Arjun Janki Dass died in New Delhi from an accidental electrocution. His parents took him to a medical clinic where they worked on his body for two hours, without success.

The doctor charged them 5,000 rupees (about $110) and told them to call a mortician.
Instead they called Rodrick Gilbert at the nearby Deliverance Church. He then called upon Savitri, one of his staff members. Savitri brought two other Christians to Arjun's home, and the five of them began praying over the dead body about 10:00 P.M. They prayed their hearts out for six hours. Then at 4:00 A.M. the next morning, Arjun snapped back to life, no brain damage, no problems. Today, he's a normal eight-year-old kid. Jim Rutz met with Savitri, Arjun, and his mother, Mina (see photos), and the boy is A-OK except for a nasty scar behind his left ear where the wire hit.

Savitri is a 60-year-old widow, a Dalit ("untouchable") from the lowly Dom caste. She spent her life as a street sweeper, which made her, in the caste system, the lowest of the low. The broom was her livelihood,

and she remains today a fine, humble lady, a former Hindu turned to Christ.
As Jim was leaving, he asked Savitri through an interpreter, "How many resurrections have you been involved with in the six years that you've been doing ministry?" She answered quietly, "Sixteen."
