The end of June was approaching, as was the deadline for giving our “good faith” deposit of 10K to House of His Creation in the process of purchasing the property at 720 Buck Run Road.  We rallied together as staff in prayer, not to beg God to do what we wanted, but  to thank Him for all He had done, express our dependency on Him and remind ourselves of Who God is and what He has called us to do.  We didn’t need to convince Him to fulfill His promises; That’s just who He is and His character will not change.

And so we sought the Lord.  And with each phone call or email, cheers of praise went heavenward until the last $500 was given about ten minutes before meeting with the Executive Director of HOHC.  We saw God speak to the hearts of those who want to see this City transformed as well as those who believe in young people being discipled and sent to the nations as world changers.  Wow!  What a journey this has been.

Now on to our next challenge!  Settlement on the property is scheduled and we need to raise a minimum of $107,000.

Would you pray and see if God would have you be part of this journey?  God is creating much local interest in developing a mission training center right here in Chester County.  We believe this will have an impact on our city and local communities as we pursue God’s vision for this area and the world He has called us to reach.

Towards the Finished Line – After our goal of $107K is reached, we still need to raise the additional $458,00 for the rest of the price of the property.  We are believing in faith to receive the entire amount by September 30, 2010.

ALL ARE WELCOME

Roslia is a 22 year old girl who was injured in the earthquake by concrete falling on her back.  She was unable bend at the waist or walk due to the pain she had in her hips.  She has been with us for the last 3 weeks and although we have seen her improve in pain tolerance, she was still unable to bend, stand on her own or lift her legs to walk.  She was so weak that she would shake like Jell-O if lifted to her feet.  She had a dream that Katrina, Lizzy (Terry’s Daughter) and Caleb (Freeman’s son) prayed for her and she was healed.  She is a Christian and had faith that God sent this dream.  The kids surrounded her and Roslia told them where they were standing in her dream.  She said there was a white cloth that was cold and wet on her back.  As Katrina placed a wet wipe on her back and started rubbing it, Antontio, a man who has been recovering beside her, pleaded with me for Katrina not to touch her back.  He is well aware of the pain this young woman has been in for many weeks.  I reassured him that it was OK, and he started singing hymns to ease his concern.  After each child prayed individually for her they recited the Lord’s Prayer together and then thanked God for the healing He had done.  They said they did not feel anything had happened but they asked her if she was ready to get up and walk.  She said yes and they gently lifted her to her feet.  She stood there a minute as she put on her flip flops.  I noticed that she was not shaking.  They held her arms lightly and she proceeded to take step after step.  I was filming with my camera by this time and as Roslia lifted her hands to praise God the children left her go and she took a few steps on her own.  I will not lie…I was VERY concerned for her safety.  But as she turned around to look at us with tears in her eyes I knew that this healing was a complete one!!! After an extended group hug, with her young prayer warriors she walked all around the clinic praising God for the healing he had done in her body.  The shock on all the other patient’s faces was the same as they called out, “Ou Mache” (you can walk?).  She can now walk, jump, dance, bend over backwards and front.  She is healed and everyone here is excited…especially the children that prayed for her.  I have a video of the miracle and you can see the shock on Katrina’s face as she puts her hand to her mouth in amazement of God’s goodness. ~ Audrey Martin
