Holy Spirit moves in Molene, and Iowa City

Greetings Friends,

PLOWING NEW TERRITORY IN PROPHETIC MINISTRY

We're so grateful for God's amazing grace. He carries us when we get tired and fights for us when we get weary in the battle. Going into new territory where many have never seen our flavor of ministry, we often find a resistance in the atmosphere. Those with extra sensitive spiritual antennae sometimes feel the warfare very intensely. Both in Molene and in Iowa City, our hosts were taking risks in inviting us, but their desparation for a greater freedom for the Holy Spirit to move led them to invite our team to minister there.

God was totally up to the challenge, as always, and showed Himself strong on their behalf. We really feel that God did something in the atmosphere in both cities and that it's also like a shaking in the earth - an underground tsunami that will have reprocussions for years to come. Our team was amazing. So many came and sacrificed their time and money to share and prophesy with us for many hours. Our schedule was kind of crazy with meetings, Monday night and Tuesday morning in Molene, Tuesday afternoon and evening in Iowa City, and then again Wednesday morning in Molene. That included over an hour drive between the two cities each way coming and going. We were quite exhausted when we finally got home.

COMING CONFERENCE IN EARLY JUNE

We're happy to announce an exciting conference, running June 1, 2, called GOD'S GLORIOUS PURPOSE, hosted by our good friend, Damon Stuart. Along with Damon and Terri Delany, Damon is bringing in Peggy Cole and Jean Warner, who have prophetic and miracle ministries. Sadly, for us, we will be in Alberta, Canda, on those dates, but we invite all our friends in the Chicago area to enjoy this special time. The location is the Northwest Assembly of God Church in Arlington Heights. For all the details please visit www.damonstuart.com.

PRAYER SUPPORT PLEASE

God has given us a huge vision, much bigger than we could ever figure out how to accomplish, but we are already seeing miraculous signs, such as a team that is growing almost daily, willing to serve sacrificially day after day, week after week. Just meeting the financial needs of our ministry and family with all the travel, etc., is a miracle. But of course, to really see the Chicago Sending Center become a reality, God will have to show off a bit more of His power. Please join us in faith to believe for that.

Also, please pray for daily strength and the ability to hear and obey God's voice regarding our schedule. We are planning trips to Canada, Nashville, Africa, Israel and Asia this year. We need to know when and who, etc.

BIG PRAISE REPORT

One of our dear friends, named Donna, who had cancer with a large protruding tumor, was given a report today that there was no other cancer in her body. They just need to remove the one tumor. This is a major miracle and does not make sense in the natural. Rejoice with us and Donna's family. Thank you, Jesus!

We so appreciate every spiritual partner that has joined forces with us for the Kingdom. Know that your rewards are out of this world and bigger than life, itself. Thank you all so very much.

We love you!

Ben, Brenda, family and team
