June Update

The month of June, even though it had been as busy as our previous months this past season, did not have many things to it other than the usual schedule that goes on in our weeks which we normally inform you about, plus one more thing; I (Stefan) had and will continue to have band practice with a couple of groups that will be playing at the Elav conference in August.

Tuesday nights with the youth, which used to consist of worship in the beginning, a short message and then worship and intercession have now switched to a whole two hours of worship and intercession instead. This in relation with our street ministry and the Elav conference that is coming up. For anyone who is not aware of what the Elav conference is; it's a three day youth and young adult conference that will take place in Tel-Aviv from the 14th-16th of August. This was started out as the One Thing conference in 2007 and has now taken the Israeli name Elav, meaning 'Unto Him'. A conference designed to draw young people into a deeper passion for the Lord and a zeal for the house of prayer. So you know, God TV will be airing the conference LIVE. So stay tuned for that. We will make sure to send a short reminder right before for those interested to watch.

Thursday nights outreach has picked up a notch since we last mentioned it. We've been going out faithfully for a while but only recently we've seen something new happen. In the past two weeks God broke out in the supernatural on the street. We knew this was coming and the Lord had promised that if we were faithful in our part He would visit us. In the past two weeks we've seen a few people get prophetic words and one Jewish Orthodox young man get miraculously healed from stomach problems. The young man was informed that we would pray for him in the name of Yeshua and he agreed to be prayed for as long as this was not an inroad for conversion. He was astonished when he realized that he was healed, more so that Yeshua would do this for him. It was amusing to watch him trying to tell a friend that the Christians got him healed while his friend who was a little drunk was trying to tell him not to convert. Such is the atmosphere in the are where we minister. Drunks, people who are passed out on the floor because of too much alcohol, and among them the Lord walks in signs and wonders and a furious love that reaches into the darkest of places to deliver the oppressed, open prison doors and bring freedom and life to the lost.

So this is the month of June in a nutshell. Short and sweet and full of surprises from Heaven. Please keep as we mentioned, the Elav conference in your prayers. We've asked God if we could have testimonies from the streets before the conference and He was faithful to reveal His hand of love. Now join us as we pray and lift up these very crucial days from August 14-16. Some people are doing a 40 day fast for this conference. That's already started but if you feel led please join us in prayer and fasting for what God is about to release in Tel-Aviv in this season. We would also like to be able to stay at the near by hotel so that Samantha, who will be 5 1/2 months pregnant by then will have a cool place to sleep and nap if she needs to, so please join us in praying for the money for that to come in.
