Exciting Things Happening

Tuesday morning is our usual time for Base intercession. What this means usually is that we will congregate together for announcements around 8:30 and then break up into small groups of about 5-8 people and pray for things pertaining to the Base and any of its ministries. As you know we have been fighting in prayer for finances to come for our Outreach trips, the last 3-months of this great adventure we're on. What it came down to was we needed roughly around 40K still and we were two weeks from when we were supposed to be leaving.

Instead of having our usual intercession time we all came together and began to pray for breakthrough for all of the schools who needed money for their outreaches. Those in each of the schools who needed finance came to the center and we would all pray for them. We also had a time where anyone on the Base could give money as an offering to the people who were in need. In a matter of an hour, as we worshipped and gave thanks to God for what He had already done, more than 30K dollars were raised from people on the Base. We watched our debt go from about thirty thousand dollars to less than three-thousand. It was an amazing victory for us. We are all grateful for the people on the Base and those within our own School who gave out of their own pockets so that we could go to the nations!
