Behold I Do a New Thing

Greetings Faithful Saints,

It's been hard to find time for a newsletter, but Brenda is out with the ladies tonight, so I am working late. It's been a long time since the last letter and very much has happened since then.

Circle Square Camp Staff Retreat

Aided by the five teens (all guys) who led worship, Brenda and I ministered to about 80 staff members who will be with kids all summer in camps. I spoke on Jeremiah 33:3 about new things that would spring forth that we hadn't seen before. Then we had them pray in small groups for each other. On gal spoke in tongues spontaneously for the first time, without anyone speaking about it and another prophesied for the first time spontaneously. The camp has wonderful leadership and we were blessed greatly by the response of the people.

Other Meetings in Alberta

On Tuesday night we were in Innisfail for a home meeting and on Wednesday night we did a church meeting in West Calgary Full Gospel Church. Thursday night we did a home meeting in Calgary and Friday night I went with Pastor Smith to a concert with Linda Randle. Brenda is serving the ladies again Saturday morning and I will be doing a men's breakfast here at the church facility in West Calgary.

We have two meetings on Sunday and another on Tuesday before we head for Kamloops B. C. for meetings on Saturday and Sunday. We will take a couple of days to have some fun with the boys in the mountains.

We appreciate your prayers. There are new and different realms of pastoral/apostolic responsibilities that we are having to deal with and we feel a real need for God's strength and wisdom. We have seen many victories, but there have also been some tough battles in the spiritual and emotional realms. We don't want to hurt anyone, but we often do when we try to fix things. Only God's wisdom will fix many situations in the Kingdom in these days.

Thanks to all who support us with prayers and with finances. We are so very dependent on God and the people He uses to cover us and our weaknesses.

Much love to you all,

Ben, Brenda and team
