December 2009 Update

Thank you so much for standing with us on our recent travels and events in which we have been involved.   The Philippines trip was so good.  We knew constantly the protection of the Father and His angels.  There were a number of situations which did not look good, especially the lengthy travel across still flooded parts of the nation, plus driving to Baguio City along the mountain road that had been devastated by landslides, then the arrival of another typhoon when we were in Mindanao and needed to fly back to Manila.  Most internal flights had been cancelled that day and the news announced our flight had been also.  Nevertheless we went to the airport and waited for a couple of hours after which they announced we could check in and the flight would be operational…and although bumpy in places we knew an incredible peace as we sheltered under the wing of Him who is so powerful to protect.  

The highlights of the trip were spending time with students and graduates in Camiling.  They are so responsive and willing to acknowledge the stuff that has damaged their ability to receive God as a Father.    Our visit to Isabela province with a group of  leaders was also really productive.   Having undertaken the journey up the mountain to Baguio City, we were surprised how eager the people were to have us stay in spite of having only just finished cleaning houses and church buildings of mud.  Our time in Dapitan City was taken up with 3 day seminar which included one evening when we were hosted at a banquet by the Mayor of Dipolog and her husband.  What an experience, especially for me when I took a mouthful of what I thought was guacomole but turned out to be wasabi ( hotter by far than English mustard).   The team were amazing and fitted in so well, developing a great teaching style as they ministered on God’s plan to prosper His children and what had to change in order for it to happen.

Since then we have shared a weekend with Chester and Betsy Kylstra in Bournemouth at House of Destiny Church; then had a great week at Bath City Church doing a Revelation of the Father’s Love school.  Gordon Harris from TACF in Toronto joined us.  We love his style and the revelation that he brings.  We so appreciated the prayer ministry team including 3 from Amsterdam.

 As ever we try to take teams everywhere we go….  And there is a special joy in seeing young people released to share, teach, hear from God, bring prophetic words and pray powerfully for people.   We love it so much and remain so grateful to the Father for His kindness to us  in giving us so many pray-ers  who tangibly make a difference to all we do.  Thanks so much for your part in it all.
