VOB News June 2025 “South Carolina report”

May was a beautiful month for worship on the VOB calendar. I (Carol) have started leading an hour of worship every Monday night from 8-9pm, on the Global Tabernacle of David website.  It’s been a truly amazing time, altho obviously very different than leading in a room full of people.  Nevertheless, we do so, knowing that the Lord is being honored and, as we partner with Him thru worship and prayer, things are getting done in the Heavenly realm. 

Last month I had the great privilege to attend the GtoD worship week, a gathering of worship leaders and intercessors from around the world. What a blessing to spend quality time with both seasoned, as well as newly minted worship leaders!  Our group worship sessions were very powerful and, once again, many things were accomplished in the Kingdom of GOD.  One of my favorite things, was to be able to teach on worship leading dynamics. I absolutely love teaching others these days!  I appreciate all that the Lord has taught me, and I am oh-so grateful to be able to pass that on and share with others. This is truly a joy.  I also appreciate the kind words of encouragement many gave to me, as Wayne and I start to move toward more ministry opportunities, after having settled in here in NC, a bit more. We have not stopped the Mexico work or our Native America mission, and will not!

Wayne just returned from a wonderful Living Waters training, where he and team had the privilege to lead in Incredible India (as our dear friend Kathleen calls the nation). He will share next month once he gets back in our time zone mentally and physically. Thank you for all your prayers of safety. He felt them!  Please join us in praying for the families of the many lives lost in the recent plane crash in India. Wayne’s return travel was the very same day. A sobering thought heavy on our hearts. 

We would like to encourage you with the following:  You may never know what your efforts for the Lord have gained, here on earth. But be assured, one day, in Heaven, as a follower of Jesus, you will know and rejoice. Keep up the good work, brothers and sisters. “Do not grow weary in well doing, for in due time, you shall reap a reward.” Galatians 6:9

  • We have had a significant drop in our monthly support. Please consider a one-time gift or ongoing monthly support. 
  • Continued prayer for worship doors to open, ongoing Mexico work, continued opportunities with Living Waters, and more opportunities to minister in our new community. 
  • For Carol’s mom, as she comes to stay with us for another extended visit. She is 93! 

VOB News October 2017 “No Words”

As our 15 person, Awaken the Dawn team ‘debriefed’, ‘no words’ was the phrase everyone kept sharing, over and over.  We were all stunned, not only by the event itself, but also by the unity and joy each person on the team felt, as we worshiped and met believers from all over. Ours, was a team comprised of people from CA, NC, VA, and New Hampshire, First Nations people, and others. We came together at this place and time, to worship the Lord, along with hundreds and hundreds of other believers…..to honor Jesus, with love & humility in our nations capital.  For three straight days, 57 tents, both large & small, were filled with singers, musicians, dancers, artists, intercessors & others, who were interested in only one thing: to honor GOD.

I’m not sure I could ever really convey how ATD was. I’ll try to give a few details: For over 10 blocks, from the Capitol building to the Washington Monument, every state had a tent which represented them, along with 7 large tents representing Israel, student worship, and various regions of the USA. Our team led worship in the CA state tent, Western regional tent, Israel Alliance tent (2x), David’s Tent (see below), and assisted in the NY state tent. Worship went on in every tent from Friday night, through Monday morning.  There were people praying for others everywhere.  Laughter, tears, joy & celebration, intercession for our nation, spilled out of each tent. For myself, walking around late one night, passing tent after tent, seeing one person here, or 5 people there, just lost in worship of our King….again….no words.   At times, it was overwhelming. Every moment,  I was so happy that we had the privilege of being a part of such a beautiful undertaking. Our VOB team was awesome. And we thank YOU, a million times over, for helping us get there! We trust that change for the better will happen in the USA, after so many gathered together to stand in unity & praise to the Lord. Let’s press in for that!

I’ll leave you with one (and there were many) awesome story: as our group led worship in “David’s Tent”, (a 24 hr worship gathering on the ‘Mall’, which has been going on in DC for 2 years), the presence of GOD was so thick. Every person in the tent, was worshiping.  A staff member told me afterwards, that 2 men from Saudi Arabia had wandered into the tent, during our set, having heard the music. This staff member was able to lead these men to the Lord!!!!! He said they were so open to Jesus.

 

The presence of the One True GOD, His love and His mercy, were just so apparent in that place. That’s what it’s all about: worshipping the King of kings and being a part of His presence, as He touches hearts and brings them into HIS Kingdom. Amen…….Blessed be the Lord!!
