Update #2


Greetings from the hills of Tennessee! We are finishing up our third summit here in Johnson City this Monday. The Lord is doing some great things here in this church. People are hungry for practical principles on how to live the Christian life. Marriages are being restored and lives are being changed!
Before this summit we were in mountains of Boone, NC. The leaves changed while we were there and it was really pretty driving into the church everyday. Although it was really foggy a couple of days so it got a little scary driving through the mountains! Anyways, it was a great church. We had great attendance and lots of college age kids that came. Cause we were like 10 minutes from Appalachian State University. Actually on one of our offs days someone got the whole team tickets and we were able to go to one of there football games! They got us all ASU hats and we had a blast as a team!




Bradly and I...the Anchorites!



The college class had a get together at a Christmas tree farm. They had a huge slide and then we went on a hayride.





Here are just a couple of testimonies of what God is doing...
“God showed me that I loved my wife more than Him (idolatry). Through Jeremiah’s messages, God showed me how to be my family’s spiritual leader by keeping Him #1 in my life and yielding control to Him.”
“I came here thinking or believing I needed genuine revival. Today I realized I needed genuine salvation. I realized that my pride has been standing in my way. I have given my life to Jesus today genuinely. He is my Lord and Master.”
“God is healing my marriage from the heartbreak of adultery. He has changed my husband in amazing ways. In many regards our marriage is better, stronger that is ever has been. However, when instructed to tell my husband that I will never divorce him, I knew I couldn't’t say it. Through prayer God showed me that was an attitude of pride - a sin. I surrendered again my life and my marriage to God and I will say to my husband, “I will never divorce you”.”
After we finish here we are headed to a retreat place in the mountains for a few days. To relax, refresh and just have fun hanging out with the team. It is beautiful there! Then we have a conference at the Cove in Ashville, NC. Please be in prayer for the conference and especially for me! I will be a very busy and possibly quite stressful time for me. But my rest is in the Lord and His grace is sufficient! But you can still pray! Haha.
I wish I could tell you all the things the Lord is doing in my life and how is showing Himself faithful and powerful on my behalf. Maybe at some other time. In the mean time thank you for your prayers and support!
