Amsterdam Report
What a brill time we had. Thanks so much for praying. About 70 people met together on the Monday morning in the YWAM building in the heart of the city. God’s Embassy, the church led by Dick and Arleen Westerhof, who meet in the YWAM building, hosted the event.
The response to the teaching and the presence of God was as strong as we have ever felt. What a great bunch of people who seemed ready for anything and went for every prayer time with such abandon. It seemd that most people there had significant encounters with the Father or a big shift in where they were at with the issues of their hearts. The week was so much fun, exhilarating and refreshing for us and the team.
On Friday afternoon just before we left for the airport, the group had the opportunity to give testimony. There were such moving stories of painful events that had almost ruined their lives but the breakthrough had come for so many. For one former drug dealer who was in recovery, the week had shown him that his whole reason for getting into drugs in the first place was because he had longed for love but not received it. He laughed as he said that his encounter with the Father this week was better than the best drug.

We also made a really good connection with Dick and Arleen and their leadership team. They have a vision for the inner city and know God has placed them there as a lighthouse to Amsterdam. We loved the prayer, intercessory and prophetic gifting we saw in evidence, and delighted to be prayed and prophesied over before we left. We believe we will be going back there in the future.
