Sat, 24 Feb 2007 15:51:12 -0600

By Matthew Legere

Winterfire 2007 was a conference anointed by the Lord Jesus Christ to provide strategic direction and relevant messages to a united group of Apostolics. Held February 15 -17, 2007 in Bloomfield, CT, it was a meeting of destiny and a harbinger of hope to a mission field on the verge of a breakthrough--the Northeast U.S.A. The results of the conference were true to what the Winterfire website stated as follows:

How often do you have a chance to hear an address by the Nobel Laureate of literature? Not every day in my world, so this week I was all too anxious to attend a special presentation of Washington University’s International Humanities Prize to Turkish novelist Orhan Pamuk, 2006’s Nobel Laureate.

Consecration 2006: Are We Between the Living and the Dead?

By Liz Fierge

If I could summarize Consecration 2006’s effectiveness in one sentence, I would say: Mark Johnston is one of the few Apostolic preachers that I have heard preach mercy, and it convicted me to action instead of patting my own righteous back.

Meeting Revival in Honduras: Mountaintops, Teacher Strikes, and Tilapia

By Theresa M. Blash

I have found it amazing that most people cannot locate Honduras on a map of the Americas, let alone the world. Located in Central America between Guatemala, Nicaragua, and El Salvador, Honduras is experiencing great revival right now. Many different youth and missions groups have gone to Honduras in the last year. I was privileged to be a part of the Missouri Youth on Missions (MO YOM) trip that visited Honduras August 8-14, 2006.

Australia’s Evangelistic Trip to Indonesia

By Jonathan Downs

Over the last decade, Australian Youth Missions (AYM) has worked in collaboration with the Overseas Missions Department of the United Pentecostal Church of Australia (UPCA) to send evangelistic youth teams into our mission field of Indonesia. God has blessed these ventures and our youth have been a tremendous encouragement to the churches, and more specifically the youth of Indonesia.

Just Recently . . .
On 1 July 2006, Melanie Downs, Jacob Caltabiano, Bradley MacDonald and I departed on an 18 day mission trip to Indonesia. The majority of the time was spent in the cities of Denpasar, Jakarta, Semerang, and a one week evangelistic trip into the rural and remote areas surrounding Semerang. The Australian team was accompanied by a large group of youth from Rev. Lie Amin’s church in Jakarta and Bro. Tjantana Jusman who did all of the interpreting.

Have you ever considered going to three foreign countries within eight days? I would suggest taking on New York City, instead. You will probably know the language and recognize most of the customs, but you will never be the same.

I went to my first Summons to Sacrifice Prayer Conference from June 8-10, 2006 at the St. Louis Airport Renaissance Hotel in St. Louis, and it was not what I had expected. I don’t know why but I thought it would be boring. It was definitely not boring—it was one of the most powerful conferences I have been in.

There was a Prayer Leader’s class at 3 p.m. on Thursday afternoon. People were already coming in at 10 a.m. Everyone that came was so excited and expecting great things. It seemed everyone had one thing on their mind, and that was to learn more about how to pray and to make every prayer count.

Indiana Music: 3 Bands for 3 Bucks Becomes Worship

For Easter weekend 2006, three bands were invited for a Youth concert that didn’t end up quite like it was planned. What was planned as a Good Friday concert featuring several regional bands changed as the bands changed. A Christian rock band that does a little worship was invited, but couldn’t make it; another band lost their lead guitar player for the night because of a death in his family; yet what followed at Point of Grace Family Praise Fellowship in Madison, Indiana was simply an amazing night of music.

Ministering Adventures in Ghana

On Tuesday afternoon, January 3, 2006, Bro. and Sis. David Norris left me at Lambert International Airport in St. Louis after helping me to overcome any difficulties connected with taking all of the goods that I packed in my suitcases. In addition to taking supplies to some of the missionaries, my heart wanted to take things for the nationals and my luggage would not contain all that my heart dictated. The kind gentleman at the American Airlines desk didn’t hold me to all of the restrictions that he could have and as the Norrises and I stood there barely daring to breathe, he weighed and reweighed his decisions before he finished off the paper work and called the next person.

The plane lifted off in St Louis then landed in Chicago, where I boarded an international flight for London and then on to Accra, Ghana.

Surrounded by all that is foreign to previous growth, students enter the realm of “college life” wondering, “Where do I go from here?” The answer? Winter Break, a retreat designed to equip students with the proper tools to evangelize their campus and to deal with relevant issues directly related to “college life.”

Many have probably already heard about the outstanding Because of the Times conference that took place in Louisiana on January 17-20, 2006. My pastor attended this conference; when he returned, he shared the Rev. Jeff Arnold’s preaching video with our church. The message has so consumed me that every day I think about it.
