Happy Easter, which in Hungarian is....

NAGYON BOLDOG ALDOTT HUSVETI UNNEPEKET KIVANUNK!
A very happy and blessed Easter celebration to you all!!


And in the United Kingdom and beyond the custom is to say ..He is Risen! -and the response is ...... He is Risen Indeed!!

and how utterly blessed we are by that truth - there was and still is Resurrection life after the cross!!

I was marveling once again about the account of the "Certain women" who were going to the tomb to anoint His body. On the way, they were talking amongst themselves and wondering how they were ever going to move the very large stone. Then "they looked up" and it was already moved away!" And then ...the amazing news, He is risen! He is not here. (Mark 16:1-6)

Do you ever talk, or think, or meditate on a "large" obstacle in front of you that seems to be blocking the way? Lord, help us to "look up" and "see" what You have done, to "see" that You have already made a way, the large obstacle is already moved.

Let us encourage ourselves this Blessed weekend - that no matter how "blocked" our way seems, there is One who has cleared the way, the One who in fact IS the Way! and the One who's work on the cross is a finished work. Death could not hold him, death has been swallowed up in Victory. He is Risen and He is ALIVE!!

May this Easter find you seated around the table of His goodess towards you!

with love, Mary Jill

Thank you so much Mary Jill.

Because of your website posting, I was able to wish my beautiful sister-in-law, a Happy Easter in her native tongue, Hungarian.

She, my brother, and my adorable 2-year old nephew are currently living in Brussels, and it felt so good to be able to wish her a Happy Easter in her own language as well.

Happy Easter to you as well!

Sincerely,

July 2019 Update One of the high points of summer is always our 8 day long church camp. Amazingly, this was my 5th camp!  Our guests this year were good friends, Pastor Wayne and Sherry Sanders from Chardon, OH and Paul Richards from Melbourne, Australia.  Every camp is special and God never fails to bring us the exact ministry, prophetic words and teachings we need! We love these ministers who partner with us for destiny! Click on the following link for our church Face Book page for photos, videos of the messages and interviews from camp attendees.   Here is the link:    https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=chrześcijańskie%20centrum%20„pan%20jest%20sztandarem”&epa=SEARCH_BO I also celebrated my 72nd birthday during the camp and was so blessed with very beautiful gifts,  warm wishes and fireworks!!! 12 Wooden cabins and a small hotel on site Our dear friends,  Pastor Wayne & Sherry Sanders Our very animated & prophetic friend, Paul Richards Past

The turning of a page....

Don't you just love opening a brand new beautiful and colorful notebook, grabbing your favorite pen and deciding what to write on that clean, white page? Or do you hesitate, wondering what if you mess the page up, or your ink runs out or you misspell something or you spill coffee on it???  Sometimes that first word, on the first page is the hardest.  BUT go for it!!! Jump right in! It's a brand new day, a brand new month and time's a wasting!!! I woke up this morning after a great night's sleep, ( which is somewhat rare) Remembered a dream I had (sometimes happens)...in which I Spoke a sentence in Polish and it seemed correct (and short :-) (an absolute first!) I realized then it was August first and I could turn the page on my calendar!! and in that small act of turning a page, I sensed a shift, a much bigger SHIFT. Suddenly, anything was possible, everything was possible!!! Everything was new,  new mercies, new grace, new favor, a new start, new creative ideas

What life is like in Poland!!

I am overwhelmed with the hospitality, the helpfulness and the love of the Polish people! I believe most Polish people have these characteristics but I know I am right now smack in the middle of God's "Uncommon Treasure's" and right in the middle of a refreshing move of the Spirit. The River of God is rising all around the world and He does not want anyone to miss it!!! I have rented an apartment in the downtown area, close to the church and as most of you will not be surprised to hear...it has become a "HUB" of activities!!! On my first Sunday speaking of the new time and the new things God wanted to do, He gave this scripture: Isa 65.8 Thus says the Lord: "As the new wine is found in the cluster,  and they say, 'Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it,'" ESV  We began then to add more "clusters", gathering people and being aware of who wasn't yet joined int he cluster.  I began holding ladies meetings every Friday
