2/21/2023 UPDATE FROM TEAM:

PJ has gone on to his second conference to teach with another colleague. They have arrived, and are doing well. Please pray for all the attendees who come to the conference to absorb all that is being shared of God’s words and wisdom over the next few days, and for them to be transformed as they then go and minister to their people. Pray for safety and refreshment for all involved.

The rest of the team arrived back home safely. Thanks so much for your prayers for us and all who came!

For His Glory,

your team

“Last day of the conference.

PJ heads out to his next conference tomorrow. Team flies out later today.

Please pray for Holy Spirit to actualize all that has been shared and prayed in all who have come. Pray that Holy Spirit would fill them and that they would experience more of God’s freedom in their relationships at work, in their neighborhoods, and in their families and churches. Please pray for all who will be traveling back to their home provinces, and for the local churches to be transformed as our brothers and sisters take this aspect of Christ back with them.

Your prayers for God’s traveling mercies, safety, and refreshment would be much appreciated. Please pray for the next conference as well and all the participants as they travel.

Thanks so much for journeying with us in blessing our brothers and sisters here.

In the moment with Him,

your team”

"Thanks so much for your prayers for PJ and the team!

The team traveled separately from PJ, and God’s traveling mercies were evident especially on the first leg of their journey. The captain was absolutely certain of severe turbulence because of the storms and flight path reports (such that he made a PA announcement before take off that he had instructed the flight attendants to remain buckled in for safety reasons for at least the first part of the flight), but the team prayed for Jesus to go before and smooth the weather, just as as He had calmed the violent storm for the disciples. And the entire flight was smooth with virtually no turbulence. After all the flights, the team arrived tired, but no worse for wear.

Holy Spirit is moving during the sharing and prayer times, too— it is especially encouraging to meet people attending this second conference who so joyfully share how they have been powerfully touched by Jesus’s transformative ministry through the first conference.

Your prayers in Christ are absolutely invaluable. Please continue to pray for Holy Spirit to do what only He can do for our precious brothers and sisters here. As they will then go and share this with others, please ask for their filling of Holy Spirit, and for their internalizing and actualizing of God’s love and truth. Thanks for your prayers for us to be filled, sustained, and grown with Jesus’s Spirit and heart as we join Him in His ministry of life.

Going with Him and you,

your team”

2/16/2023 UPDATE FROM P. JOE:

Hi all,

Our first day of teaching went really well. We covered 3 of the 7 topics in Freedom in Relationships ("FIR") and had great prayer times where we blessed people. We also had additional prayer times where we could pray for people's specific prayer requests after dinner. Our day started at 8a and we finished around 9:30p. We could definitely use more intercessors but our small team is doing great!

So far, we are all relatively healthy and excited to be ministering to people's needs and also greatly encouraged by how the Lord is working here.

Blessings,

p. Joe
