Camping Again in a Winter Wonder Land

Greetings Friends,

We returned safely to Chicago a few days ago and immediately began moving out of our friends' house where we've been house-sitting in Lake Zurich. They are home with their family for Christmas and New Years and we wanted to be with our family for Christmas anyway. We moved back to our motorhome, parked at our house in South Beloit, where our daughter, Barbie, and family are staying at present. This time we are not using the plumbing in the motorhome and have had it winterized to avoid last year's frozen pipe scenario. We go inside the house as often as we want to be with Barbie and the grandkids and to use the facilities.

Our son-in-law, Caleb, is still working in Wyoming until he can transfer to Los Angeles, where they will be a part of Shawn Bolz's and Paula Benne's ministry. It looks like Barbie and the kids will join him in Wyoming after Christmas. We expect to return to Lake Zurich for a few months regardless.

FINAL TAIWAN REPORT

My last letter was written just before finishing up our ministry in Taiwan. The last day had some important ministry that hopefully will have an impact for eternity. It's hard to remember it all now, but we ended up in a government building in downtown Taipei. There we were introduced by one of the gals we had met earlier to a dozen or so men and women who had authority to regulate the financial activities of the banking system, etc. We were told they were the equivalent to our FDIC in the USA.

As we ministered to them they were very touched and thankful. We ended up in the private office of a high up director of these people. Later we discovered that Rebecca, the gal who brought us there, was actually over all of them, but was a very humble lady. She was still a professor in the nation's leading university and we had ministered to a dozen of her doctoral program students earlier. Needless to say, we felt very honored with the opportunity to impact so many leaders with a message of their Kingdom destiny.

Another leader we ministered to was close to the President of the country and she had been the head of the Security Police. She was now one of a group of strong intercessors praying for the country. I believe Taiwan will have its first major revival very soon. Now only 1% of the people are Christian.

Another amazing event I failed to mention earlier happened on Sunday. Brenda prophesied to an American living in Taiwan. When she asked his name, his last name was Pinkerton, which was her maiden name. When they compared notes, they realized they had the same grandfather, who had left Brenda's dad's mom and family and married another woman. So they had the same grandfather but different grandmothers. They were amazed that they would meet in Taiwan.

VANCE MURPHY IN REVIVAL MEETINGS IN ELGIN

Vance will be ministering at least until Wednesday night at the New Covenant Church in Elgin at 7 pm each evening.

865 Parkway Av
Elgin, IL 60120
Phone: 847-741-5683

The meetings have been powerful with healings and lives changed. I expect to be there Monday night.

That's all for now. Please keep us in your prayers. We are in some major transition times again. God is taking us to a new place which requires greater wisdom and faith.

Much love in Jesus,

Ben, Brenda, family and team
