REVIVAL HUNGER GROWING EVERYWHERE

Feb 2, 2007

Greetings Everyone,

It's been a little while since our last letter. There's a lot to cover, but I'll try to be brief. We've had some awesome meetings and we have some great things coming soon. I'll share a bit about this past week first. By the way, we have been extremely busy and have not been able to keep up with emails like we usually do. If you didn't get your letter answered please feel free to write again in case I don't notice your last one. If you are waiting for your year end donation receipt, it should be on the way. We have a few left that should go out tomorrow.

ADAMS FAMILY JOINS US
On the 23rd of January we picked up the Adams family from O'Hare. Their five kids and one extra young lady enjoyed seeing and touching snow for the first time. Most of us would rather go without those privileges by now, but the kids thought it was wonderful. Since they plan on staying about 9 months, they needed a vehicle, so we spent some time shopping, but nothing seemed to be the "right" vehicle. This past weekend someone gave us the name of a Christian dealer in Wisconsin. It was a divine appointment. The Christian dealer, not only wanted to bless the Adams, but he received prayer from them and was visibly touched by the power of God. The result was the Adams purchased a beautiful maroon-colored Trail Blazer at a very low price, with the promise that they would buy back the car when they were ready to return.

We have had several meetings with Darin and Rada Adams. These meetings revealed a deep passion for intimacy and a mature anointing with signs and wonders. They had spent 3 months in Mozambique with Heidi and have the same passion to be with Jesus and be used by Him. They will be spending more time in Illinois, but travelling to many other places as well. They will also be sharing at our April Conference.

PROPHETIC CONFERENCE IN FREEPORT
Again, we have to say that God showed up and the anointing on the ministry was beyond expectation. The attendance was exceptional and the response was wonderful. When the activation time came, many people prophesied for the first time in their lives. That was incredibly rewarding to us. One lady who had never prophesied previously was encouraged to share what she was hearing or seeing. She shared with the Adams that she saw a maroon vehicle like a van or SUV. Two days later we were at the dealership in Wisconsin and they drove up a maroon Trail Blazer for the family to test drive for two days. What an amazing God we serve!

Several testimonies have come in declaring what a blessing the prophetic conference was to them. Some have asked for one like it closer to their home. We are glad to fit these into our schedule if you want to host one of these.

INGELA LARSSON SHARES TWO DAYS WITH US
Most of you will not know who Ingela Larson is, but she is well known in horsemanship training circles. She is also the one who was used miraculously by God to bring horses to Mozambique for Heidi and Rolland Baker's children. She loves adventure and journeyed with Rolland and others into the very dangerous Congo, where people are dying every day and their only hope is Jesus. The story is totally amazing. We met Ingela in Mozambique last July and Brenda couldn't stop prophesying over her there. We had her minister in a small house group on Tuesday morning and it was very powerful. We have invited her to speak at our conference in April and she has accepted.

PAUL BENNE VISITS CHICAGO THIS WEEK AND NEXT
We were disappointed that Paula would not be able to come for our April conference, but she had to come to Chicago for other things this week. She did speak in Lake Bluff two nights ago and we will be hosting her at the CrossWind Community Church in Genoa on Tuesday evening at 7 pm. CrossWind is the new name for the Genoa Foursquare Church. They have a brand new facility at 13100 Cherry Road in Genoa. Don't miss this one special night if you can possibly make it! Paula is one very special lady being released into the body of Christ in this hour. Our EHOP youth worship team will be leading us in worship again.

EVER INCREASING GLORY CONFERENCE TAKING SHAPE
Our Spring conference will bring us wonderful speakers and a change in location and schedule. Because of schedule conflicts we cannot use our previous location in Crystal Lake. They have been awesome hosts for many past conferences, but this year's planned events are both coming on holiday weekends, which don't work for Christian Fellowship Church. In the mean time God is giving us favor with another great church with a great facility - Church in the Word in Elgin, Illinois. This facility is just off of Hwy 31 and I-90.

The first meeting will be on Tuesday evening, April 3, at 7 pm. The second will be on Wednesday evening at 7 pm. On Thursday and Friday we will have services at 10 AM, 2 PM and 7 PM. The speakers will by Ryan Wyatt, Jeff Jansen, Georgian Banov, Darin and Rada Adams, and Ingela Larsson. Worship will be led by JoAnn McFatter and our Elgin House of Prayer Youth Worshippers.

WRAPPING UP
We minister tonight and tomorrow in home meetings. Next weekend we will be in Dixon on Saturday at 6 pm, and Sunday at 10 am and 6 pm. After that we'll be in Washington and Idaho and then central Florida, where the tornadoes just hit hard. Please continue to pray for us.

Haydee Chang has been working hard to bring the Intercessors together and get them to work. She does have a weblog for prayer requests, etc. We'll try to update that info in the next newsletter - hopefully just a few days from now.

God bless all you wonderful people!

Ben, Brenda, boyd and team
