Hey Everybody,
God is doing some amazing things here. Tami and I have a cool story to share about how we found out we're going to Haiti for outreach (April-June).
Tami and I had originally felt the lord tell us Guam/New Zealand, He showed us where to go and what He wants to do. So we were on that team and helped confirm what they would be doing. They were actually thinking of not going to Guam and in prayer, Tami heard God say, "the place you're going to has mountains and the name of it is (name of mountain)." When she looked up the mountain on google that mountain was in Guam. What are the chances that was awesome.
But then the earthquake happened and instantly I felt the peace of God even more than for Guam. So we prayed and said Lord you need to confirm this. So that night I prayed and said, 'Lord we really need to hear you on this would you speak to me in my dreams with clear interpretation tonight to confirm what I'm already feeling in my heart.' Then i wrote a note next to my bed that said,"thanks for speaking in my dreams tonight Lord because you are just that good." Then the next morning I woke up and I had this dream. I was in a car with Tami and her mom was with us, driving us to our wedding or honeymoon to drop us off and when we were on our way, Tami turns around and says 'you know what Jon I know of someone way better for you to marry and it will mean a lot more in your life if you do it. It's my younger sister.' Which obviously Tami doesn't have a younger sister. Then I agreed and her younger sister pulls up behind us on the road and I get in a mini van with her. When I woke up I pretty quickly knew what it meant. It was that we were married to the idea of Guam for outreach but the Lord actually had a much better place for us to go, I just didn't know about the other place yet cause the earthquake hadn't happened. Then Tami wakes up and she had a dream where someone was praying for her and said,"You're going to Haiti for outreach and three people are going with you." The Lord showed us that those three are: The love and heart of Father God, intimacy with Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit.
We'll be staying at the YWAM base in St.Marc, 60 miles north of Port-Au-Prince, they're already working closely with the government and are helping transport people right now. We are really excited for this cause we know for sure that God is going before us and I've already heard some amazing miraculous stories that are taking place there from guys from our base who just got back from a week long trip. We're so excited about how God is going to restore this nation and its people through faith, hope and love.
Be praying for this, that God's plans come together for it all and for our team, we're taking 9 students. We love you guys and are praying for you. Thank you very much for all your love, prayers and support.
As always the Lord is amazingly good.
Mahalo (Thank you),
Jon
