Canada, Cleveland, Chicago here we go





Andrew in front of His house during our travels to Amhearst the Ministry Team hung at his house for a sunday afternoon

If you have looked around on facebook you might have seen some pictures of me at Nigra falls on the way to Toronto Canada or pictures of us at Bair Lake Camp in Michigan, a camp Elliot worked out for us to stay at, on the way to Cleveland from Toronto.  So far Cleveland has been the fastest event and I bet a lot of that is because we are getting to know our Jobs and not having so many problems.

In Sidney Canada I stayed at a host home with Derek Kenny and we were able to love on the family and the kids, eat delicious food, take a tour of their farm and Skype my family and Mike Schults.  In Toronto there was 8 guys I was staying with and both nights we got there after midnight.  This particular event was at a church and just about every possible thing in the production and material side of things went wrong.  We had to figure out how to fit our rig in and adjust to a church rather than an arena.  We made a list of 30 plus things that went wrong where God showed His power.  It was actually a very relieving event because of all of the weakness and failers on our part God reminded and proved to us that we only do what we do for Him.  We can not do what we do without Him and that He is the only reason we are all still alive and serving Him.

I think there is some weird glitch on my computer, keypad or email.

So here is a good way to keep up with me if you are curious to where in the USA I am and what God is doing in my life and the lives of those around me: Go to www.Facebook.com
and become my friend if you are not and when you are my friend you can look at the pictures that get added and I will be glad to message, chat or text or call if I am available.
Call or Text me at 316-650-6267 (So far I have only got 3 texts from emails I have sent out)

This is what our fall tour looks like from city to city:
Amhearst Massachusetts to
National Youth Pastor Conference (on Campus) Garden Valley Texas to
Toronto Ontario Canada to
Cleveland Ohio to
Chicago Illinois to
Anaheim California to 
Billings Montana to Thanksgiving Break!

I am Currently in Chicago and I am about 30 min to an hour from my old house in Wheaten.

I am at a host home and we will start work about 9 am tomorrow after an hour of worship and a lesson from ATF Leadership.

Yesterday we had part of the day to explore Chicago so I was able to eat Deep dish Pizza with a couple friends from the Ministry Team and Deborah, who I worked with last year in the Leadership Department in Global Expeditions.
It was a blessing to see her and hear about how she is being made fun of and argued with at her work because she follows Christ.
I was able to give some extra pizza and pray for a guy we saw who is trying to get off the street.
Earlier that day Andrew and I prayed with another man who wanted some food after Andrew bought him a subway sandwich and surprised him with it.

Life is so pointless with out God!

Our team is challenging each other in ways we can be more devoted to Christ.
It is really cool.

Please Pray:

-That the team is united in Spirit and Mind.
-That the team would be very sensitive to the Spirit and His leading
-That God would encounter the team on a consistent basis in all sorts of ways.
-That God would specifically convict and change people's hearts here in Chicago tomorrow and Saturday as we serve
-That God would give you specific things to pray for
-That God would allow us to be weak and Him Strong
-That God would ruin the Devil's Schemes against His people.
-That God would do HIs will in the Attendees hearts
-That God would sustain, energize and lead the leaders of atf

Thank you for your prayers.

Bless His name
I am weak...
but He is strong
