VOB News April 2015 “30-60-100”

On February 7, we started “30 Days of Worship & Prayer” at P.o.W.  Last month we told you we felt impressed by the Lord to extend it to 60 days through Easter.  WELL, since then, Carol felt impressed to extend it to 100 days, taking us through to Pentecost! This has been a blessing, although not without its challenges. Please pray for continued stamina for Carol and all those worship leaders participating.

Also, we have a couple of engagements booked the next couple of weeks. Wayne is sharing about the Mexico ministry at a local church, Father’s House Church, ( April 26th) and Carol is teaching a, “Spontaneous Worship Workshop”,  on hearing the Lord prophetically for spontaneous worship times (May 2nd – See flyer below for more info).

Our Dia de los Niños (Day of the Children – celebrated in many Latin countries) was a great success. For several weeks leading up to it, we collected 2 truck loads of brand new toys from a local organization, which had left overs from Christmas. We also got a last minute donation of a truck load of 200+ Easter Baskets (see photo with Wayne & Carol -right) thanks to Bridge of Hope. Our Chiropractor friends, Hands for Life,  had their team of Drs join the festivities. Carol and team led worship in both Spanish and English. There was plenty of food to eat, and plenty to be distributed to homes.  And finally, the day ended with an evangelistic clown act. Our partner Vicente and his team at Impacto de Fe really worked hard to make sure the kids were celebrated and reached for Christ!

Legos, girl dolls, boy dolls, jump ropes, etc. were distributed! Every single child went home with a brand new toy.

VOB News February 2015 “30 Days of Worship and Prayer”

 “And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12

0001WH

It is always our prayer, that VOB could help facilitate the bringing of Jesus’ Name, through worship and compassion.  This month, we have been blessed to do that in a few different ways:

30 Days of Worship and Prayer at P.lace o.f W.orship (P.o.W.):

February, 2015, marks the 3 year anniversary of P.o.W.  For the last 3 years, we have been meeting once a month, to worship GOD, pray and intercede for the nations, or whatever is on His heart. We’ve seen remarkable participation, as people come to worship & honor the Lord through prayer, Scripture reading, singing, worship dance, worship art, and the bringing of non-perishable food items for the poor.  On Saturday, Feb. 7, we launched 30 Days of worship & prayer at P.o.W.  Each day, for 30 days, we are holding either a morning or an evening session.  Each session is being led by a different worship leader or prayer leader from around our city.  We are also having sessions dedicated to worship dance & worship art.  This is a true representation of the Body of Christ coming together for a greater purpose & we hope it will lead to more unity & greater outpouring of GOD’s Spirit, around the world.  “So that the nations will know that HE is GOD & there is no other.”  Please join us with your voice, in prayer, from wherever you are, that the Lord would be glorified, as we come together.  Even though we may be far apart, physically, we are one in HIM!!

On the compassion front, we just received a very large donation of sports equipment, from a local ministry – Sports Gift. that serves the needy in this way.  We were given soccer balls, baseballs, bats, gloves, shinguards, jerseys, hats, and so many other sports related donations!  These items will be used by the community we serve via our partner Vicente, as well as Lily of the Valley orphanage, in Tijuana.  What a pleasure to be able to give such items to kids who could not be happier, just to have a ball to kick around in the street with friends.  It makes for a very happy face, and lots of smiling faces, in a very poor place.

As always, we thank YOU, for your part in VOB.  We could not do this alone.  Our victories are your victories.  Thanks for being a part of sharing the Name of Jesus, throughout the earth!!    Love Wayne & Carol

Please be in prayer, that these 60 DAYS, will be profoundly unique in changing the atmosphere, not just in our city, but all over the world, for the glory of GOD!!!
