prayer

The husband of one of my team members (he isn't able to go) emailed out this prayer he's praying for the team...so cool I wanted to share...

"asking the LORD to give each of you, (and to everyone you meet),
wonderful encounters with Christ the Living Word and with the Holy
Spirit. That by faith you will bring the Light and Life of our God
and Savior to EVERY PERSON you all meet.

I will be praying that your impact; and the ministry of your team's
faith in Christ, expressed in Art, Music, Testimony, Fellowship, and
Preaching of the Word; and demonstrated in hope and love; and your
examples of joy and peace, will literally tear down ungodly strong
holds of thought and of the traditions of this world and inspire God's
dear people in Ballymena .

I'll pray that through you all, the poor will be blessed; that
spiritual captives will believe for release and that the downtrodden
will receive HOPE to be set free to newness in life by Jesus Christ;
that young people will be encouraged to express their love for God
through Art and Music. And through the tangible expressions of your
love, having traveled thousands of miles to be with them, that each
person will sense the Father's love for the them and for the nation.
May your coming together to celebrate and give expression to God's
creative goodness and glory inspire even the youngest among them to be
a fully devoted follower of Jesus The Messiah."

Thank you all for your prayers. At this point, I see it a need to pray for the hearts of all involved. From the folks of Hillside church to the kids to our team. Pray that God would prepare us workers and allow us to take on His heart.
