England Day Three....

So, I have energy this night. Hallelujah! I achieved 8 hours sleep in 11 hours time last night. Woke up at 4am, read two chapters out of Danny Silk's new book "Culture of Honor" which is A-Mazing, A-wesome!

Today was great. Got a tour of Bradford with a deep discussion as to the history of Bradford, the wool milling industry, and the new influx of foreigners (Asian muslims and Eastern Europeans).
We toured the Christian Family Centre at the church as well. It was good fun.

Then back for lunch at the Gregg's house. It was good. Soup, fresh, soft, delicious fluffy bread, cheeses, meats, and deserts. Wow.
I'm getting fat already.
Last year I think I gained like 10 lbs in one week here. sheesh. Between chocolate and heavy meals wow...

This afternoon we did a Trekker's Family Night. Basically kids and families (mostly mums) from the community come out and it's a "outreach/seeker" friendly children's program.
They had an American theme and my friend Adam came out dressed like Abe Lincoln and interviewed me about God and His love.

Afterward we did, prophetic arts like face painting, words, and paintings. I actually did prophetic art, and I must say it wasn't too bad for a first time. I do have perfectionistic tendencies so my drawings took a good while. But I saw some people really blessed in genuine and moving ways. I got to refill a ladies love tank which was low with the intimate love of God for her. Her son was blessed with a good word that built on a life changing word he received last year. And a young girl seemed a bit impressed with the things God told me about her in drawing..

Afterward we split into two teams and went to some evening life groups. Had some Thai Spiced Soup which was good and then got to share and pray with the group. It was really fun. We had a nice time of prophecy. I had one of the more detailed prophetic "utterances" ha ha... that I've had.
I saw an interesting picture with a descriptive word for each member of the group. Some detailed things about their lives came out to some degree, and at least I hope the grace on those words were received and the breakthrough will come through...
We also prayed for a lady who had some pain in her "tooth" area. She was on some heavy meds, but the little bit of pain she could feel went away, so we're trusting the Lord that that is a sign of a full healing. :-)

It was a great time. I really enjoyed their group and feel that they will be integral in the advancement of the kingdom into dark places and bringing in new believers to the church family at Buttershaw Baptist Church.
So cool...
So that's it for today.

Tomorrow we will be visiting Smith Wigglesworth's grace, doing an after-school program (kinda like Campus Life) called Christian Union, and then doing a healing service with the entire North England Missions Team.

Cheeee!!!!
