Dear Friends,

We pray that all is well with you since we last wrote to you in March

Since then we have had a busy season of ministry, in Ireland, England, Scotland, Spain- Ecuador, Slovakia, and Canada. We have slept in more beds than we can count but through it all we have been enjoying the Lord's presence and the flow of His Spirit.

In Ireland we ministered at over 80 meetings. We are thrilled to see the church grow so rapidly in Ireland against a background of radical secularization and the collapse of traditional Christianity. One of our friends commented recently that Jesus' command to *go, and teach all nations" could be difficult to obey. However when preaching the Word of god in Ireland we come pretty close. The f low of immigrants into Ireland over the last decade is from every corner of the earth - Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Finland, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Russia, Sri Lank, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Ivory Coast, England, Germany, France, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, China, Singapore, Taiwan, India, Pakistan, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil and Argentina. The Ireland of our youth has been replaced by a fast moving secular multicultural society, which opens new opportunities not only economically but also for the Kingdom of God.

In Ecuador we  were part of a team 'New Wine, Fresh Oil" and ministered to several thousand people there. These 'Fresh Oil, New Wine" conferences are organized by David Carrera an Ecuadorian, now based in Shelby Tennessee. We had the privilege of seeing many baptized in the Holy Spirit. We also did a half hour interview on one of the largest TV stations in Latin America with several million viewers.

In August we spoke  Shiloh Hills annual conference at Renfrew Ontario near Ottawa, arranged by its director, Peggy Putnam. Our theme was "The Kingdom of God - The Hope of Canada." The Lord blessed wonderfully.

Late August we traveled to Slovakia as the guests of Stanislaw Gawel director of Chevra Ministries, which distributes aid to impoverished Jewish families within former Soviet Union countries. We taught at their annual conference in Zilina and the following weekend at a camp meeting organized by the Apostolic Church of Zilina. We also spoke at two Pentecostal churches in nearby towns.

This month we teach at a conference in Montreal, Canada, organized by Messianic leader, Michael Gertsman of Lion of Judah & Pastor Brian Maguire of Restoration Ministries.

On 3' of October we leave for our annual tour of Israel and to speak and participate in the Feast of Tabernacles Conference after which we will go to Ukraine (Kiev and Kharkov) to teach with M.T.E.E. (Ministry To Educate and Equip) which has 55 bible colleges in five countries in Eastern Europe. After that we travel to Finland as guests of the ICEJ Finland directed by Ula Jarvihleto for an itinerary of about 15 meetings including  Taste Of The Feast Conference before retuning home in November.

As you can see we need a lot or prayer for the strength of the Lord to accompany us and for lives to be transformed and refreshed from His presence as we minister.

Our ministry stands on the prayers of our intercessors.

With deepest thanks to all of you who help us with your prayers and support - we need you! One in His great love and service
