Missions Prep Report

Greetings Friends,

BIG THANKS

Our OHM team, led by Val Coltman, did another fantastic job organizing our Missions Prep 101 event. The hosts, CrossWinds Community Church, did a great job of providing for all our needs.

Our speakers, Kevin and Cynthia Ford from Florida, were sent by God to prepare all of us to take the love of Jesus to the harvest fields. Several wonderful healings took place and we were carried into the presence of God with fun and laughter and a sweet awareness of God's presence.

Yesterday, some of our worship team ministered at the Encounter, led by Pastor Theresa Forkins-Philips. Steve Schultz of The Elijah List spoke in the morning and Rich Hanson spoke at night. Both sessions were powerful and our kids did an awesome job of leading worship. It's amazing to see what God is doing with these kids. They have the pure passion that brings the presence of God.

COMING EVENTS

Brenda and I will be heading for meetings in Velatie and Albany New York on Wednesday. Please pray for us. Brenda will be doing another ladies event and I will be speaking on Sunday morning at The Shepherd's House, and ministering with Doctor Bob in Albany on Monday night.

We will be doing some private meetings, as usual, this upcoming month. The more public meetings are listed below.

May 14 - 16 will find us in Moline, Illinois, and Iowa City, Iowa, ministering in homes, a Christian School and church gatherings.

May 18, 19, we will be doing a prophetic seminar at the Lakeshore Tabernacle in Kenosha Wisconsin.

May 27, 28, we will be involved in the dedication of the remodelled facility of New Covenant Church in Elgin, Illinois.

CONFERENCES BEING PLANNED

LABOR DAY WEEKEND IN KENOSHA WISCONSIN - CROSSING OVER INTO DESTINY

Our speakers will be life-changing, although you may not have heard of them yet. Trust me, they will take you to new levels of glory. Shara Pradhan is Heidi Baker's personal assistant. Karen Dunham is becoming very well-known for her amazing ministry in Jericho in the Palistinian refugee camps. Roger and Gabriela Joyner are long time disciples of Lou Engles and come highly recommended. Vance Murphy and Lisa Bourland, of The Father's House, both have powerful messages and ministries. Healings are sure to happen and the fire of God will fall. Plan on making it your Labor Day Weekend vacation. We will get motel information asap.

OCTOBER 24-27 IN CRYSTAL LAKE, ILLINOIS - THEME NOT YET DETERMINED

We will have a return of last fall's powerful team. Shawn Bolz, Paula Benne, Jonatan and Jennifer Toledo and Gary and Sarah Morgan will release a brand new prophetic flow into the region. Keep these dates open, please.

APRIL 23-26, 2008

We have scheduled Georgian Banov and expect to have several others return, probably to the same venue in Elgin. We are going after Rolland and Heidi Baker as well.

Thats all for now. Please pray for us. We are always in need of more of God and His grace and power.

Much love to all in Jesus,

Ben and Brenda, family and team
