Greetings Saints,

IOWA REPORT

Brenda and I spent three days in Iowa this past weekend. Mary Ferguson and six young people joined us for the first two days in the Iowa City region. One of the highlights was observing these kids using their gifts to encourage scores of people. It was really amazing. One sang over people several times. Another drew prophetic pictures for everyone we ministered to. It was powerful.

We ministered to many different people, sharing the fact that God wants to put His words in our mouths if we learn to listen to His voice. We saw many people moved to tears and heard many testimonies of lives changed from our previous visit. Our last meeting was an Aglow meeting in Bettendorf, Iowa. We had a full house and an enthusiastic audience. Both Brenda and I felt an amazing anointing in response to their hunger. It was an awesome night and many people were radically touched.

FRESH VISION: WE ARE FOR SIGNS AND WONDERS

I can't give all the details here, but God has been clearly speaking. This weekend really motivated us to seek the Lord about our internship program. God spoke to us through Shawn Bolz earlier to begin to build. Now God is speaking about our youth and the internship program which informally began this fall.

God showed me that not only our natural children but others that God is bringing to us are for signs and wonders. When our conference platform is filled with children and teens bringing the presence of God to hundreds of conferencees, they are a sign and wonder. They are a sign that God has begun an amazing youth prayer and worship movement which will lead the way into the harvest, together with us older folk who are willing to become childlike again.

With the help of our wonderful team, we will soon be taking in more young adults into an internship program. They will live with us, work with us and sometimes travel with us and our teams. They will be involved in Houses of Prayer and much prayer and worship. They will grow quickly into their destiny and be sent into the harvest fields of the earth.

Pray for us for the development of this ministry. We know this is what God has called us to do and we know that He will provide what is needed. If you are young and wanting to be an intern, let us know.

KOREA AND TAIWAN

We are just three days away from our trip to Korea and Taiwan. Please, please pray for us and those who join us on this trip. We will be ministering non-stop for three weeks and need God's strength. We also have family and responsibilites at home which are hard to leave behind.

We will be two weeks in Korea and one in Taiwan. We will be ministering to a lot of pastors and leaders and then in Taiwan to political and educational leaders in the nation, including the ambassador from the USA to Taiwan. Please pray that God will put His words in our mouth as never before. We really need Him and we really need you to pray for us.

We have been severely tested in the last few months and God is taking us through but your partnership with us is so indispensible to us and this ministry. If we didn't have the amazing team we have, I don't know where we would be right now.

May God richly bless you with His love, and have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

Much love,

Ben, Brenda, family and team
