I asked for prayer and God heard the prayers

Thanks for praying, the weekend was a huge success.

Our neighbor gathering - fishing contest was huge. It was a great time also around the campfire. All who wanted to catch fish did so. The largest fish caught was a 13 ½ inch large mouth bass caught by 8 or 9 year old Timothy. The most fish were caught by 4 year old Benjamin. Everyone had fun and we all grew closer together as neighbors. I think I gave out 35 or so prizes. It was fun to say the least.

The meeting yesterday with the Kenyan missionary to America (Stephen Karugia) and others went well also. I came away from that meeting with some really good connections. I was able to help a young gal with a heart passion to serve orphans in Africa get connected with my good friends (Amon & Erica Munyaneza) who run an orphanage/school in Africa. We are also praying that Erin will come into our disciple making movement and even attend one of our summer internships. Pray for her, God has His anointing on her. It was a God connection. Also, I met with a fire ball African American leader (Elder Alexander) who understands what it means to be a disciple and I am praying that this connection will lead to other kingdom advancements in the future. Another good thing is our P.O.W. Dog tags may end up helping our Kenyan Missionary raise funds for His work as well as benefiting the homeless in recovery on our end.

As for Terry and Suzette, the Disciple Driven Church Training weekend went well in Indiana. At the end of the meeting on Sunday evening the Holy Spirit showed up and confession, brokenness, and sharing went on for several more hours. There were also close to a dozen prisoners in a disciple making rehab program present for the entire weekend. Several of the rehab guys indicated that when they get out of prison they want to connect with us in St. Louis to make disciples who make disciples. They were Holy Spirit shaken by the training. That's what always happens.

God answered our prayer requests through you. Thanks for your partnership with us in the advancement of disciple making movements in Indiana and here in St. Louis this past weekend.

I love Declaring the Glory of God before the enemies of God who fear His glory.
