It's been a while...

Dear friends,

We are so thankful of knowing that we have wonderful friends and family that God has blessed us with. We really want to take the time of appreciating all who has been standing with us in prayer and support. After a year of being in the wilderness and having felt like everything we loved in ministry been taken from us we can now testify that God is so faithful and committed to His glory. He has once again shown Himself faithful towards us in every aspect of our life’s and ministry. Sometimes when we walk through a dark season its so hard to see the light on the other end, but once we have walked through that season we can see the true glory that God wanted to reveal in us.

About two weeks before the new year we were having a sovereign time of visitations of God. In this time of visitations the Holy Spirit spoke to us clearly about our wilderness season and why he had led us there. He also spoke that, as we entered into 2011, a new season was ahead of us where He was going to bring a increase and give us a new area of influence. To God be the glory!!!

Trip to the USA.

We want to share with you about our trip to the United States and while we looked back all that we could see was His faithfulness! At the end of January we flew from South Africa to Ohio and the main reason for this trip was the wedding of Alex and Lindsay (Kevin’s younger brother) that was going to be on the 25th of February. We went there for 5 weeks to be able to spent time with his family that was all gathering there for the wedding and to be able to minister in different churches. As we shared with you earlier, right before we left God spoke very clearly about increasing our area of influence and we were full of expectation of the things that He was going to do. From the first meeting we attended while we were there, God opened so many other doors for us to go and minister that we were totally fully booked after a week of being in Ohio. This time in the US we had the blessing of not only minister in Canton where we were staying but in different places in Ohio as we just saw the Holy Spirit moving. We had many opportunities to share both our testimonies and there where many other churches that invited us to come and preach and minister to the people. After one service in a church in Louisville, Ohio, we were invited back for every Wednesday night as they made a special service for 4 weeks for us to minister. It was just amazing being in the presence of God and seeing how the Holy Spirit was touching and changing life’s. Many of our services went over time as we ministered to hungry souls. It was such a blessed and fruitful time for us these couple of weeks and it was great to be back in Ohio and see all our friends and people that just feel like family to us. We love Ohio and are very thankful to God for giving us so many new connections as we know that God in His timing has called us to nation of the United State of America. The wedding was the perfect finishing up as we enjoyed being together as a family and celebrating two life’s being joined together.

Back in South Africa.

After flying back to South Africa we continued with the ministry at Bethesda house where we have been involved in. God provided us with a place to stay and we are very blessed to be surrounded by great people (see picture) and to see so many life’s changed trough the gospel and power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The ministry is growing and we are soon holding our second leading by the Spirit school (LBSC). The LBSC is a 6 week course designed to equip YWAM staff to spiritually carry and lead in ministry settings, while fostering a lifestyle of living by the Spirit. (if you want to know more about this go to www.ywammuizenberg.org) We also have been in a time of seeking Gods timing for us going to America. We are trusting God in His guidance and are fully aware that you can be at the right place but at the wrong time. Our heart is just to obey Him in His ways that are always higher than ours.
