Out for "Mexican" with friends - Karen, Judith, MJ, Michael and Paul


With my son Michael doing a little sightseeing

30 years ago my son Michael and I got saved at Abbott Loop Community Church (ALCC). I graduated from the church's 2 year bible school and my on and I were sent out on a team to New York to help plant a church. (My son is now part of the leadership of the River Church, Poughkeepsie, NY) We were the 50th team sent from ALCC. Over a period of about 15 years more than 1,000 people were sent out. This June 19-22 we are enjoying a reunion with many people returning see each other again. Our "Father's in the Lord", Dick Benjamin and Dick Strutz and an "uncle" Dick Iverson have been speaking about some of the valuable things they have learned over the years. And what rich mines and deep wells they are!! We have had lots of time to fellowship, worship and eat together, too. We are renewing friendships, honoring those who have gone before us and discussing what Kingdom things we can do in the future together. Well, off to the last official session to hear from the sons Rick Benjamin and Richard Strutz.

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!

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
