Transformation & Testimonies

God is SO GOOD!

In the past 9 months, we have grown in so many ways in our relationship with Father God, our relationship with each other in marriage, and our relationships with others in community!

There were so many moments that were so hard where I wanted to give up and "go back to normal life", but I could feel the Holy Spirit carrying me and our family and our marriage through your prayers. "When we are weak, then He is strong." Thank you for walking with us through this intense season, for giving us grace, for encouraging us, and for your PRAYERS!

The biggest thing God has done in my heart during these last nine months of training with YWAM Lancaster has been a TRANSFORMATION of my mother heart! I am walking in a completely new freedom as a momma to my girls and growing as a spiritual mother to other young teens and young adults! THANK YOU JESUS!

God has been blowing my mind with how He has been moving in Lancaster country through the simple obedience and "YES" in two broken vessels who believe God is who he says he is and just want to lead people into encounters with their Heavenly Father!

In the past nine months with YWAM Lancaster, Josiah and I have had the absolute privilege of leading 26 people into a new relationship with JESUS!

ALL GLORY BE TO GOD! The harvest is ready in Lancaster county and America is ready for the GOSPEL!

BOSTON OUTREACH

YWAM Lancaster sent out four teams to different locations in the Northeast for one week in June and WE WENT TO BOSTON!

During our week in Boston:

*God healed 3 different people’s knees!!

*Our team prayed for or shared the gospel one-on-one with over 52 people!

*We ministered with the YWAM Boston DTS students on their Encounter Tour last night here in Boston and I got to lead a precious 17 year old girl to Jesus!! (Testimony BELOW) AND 6 other teenagers gave their lives to Jesus

BOSTON SALVATION TESTIMONY

I met this teenage girl before the show and sat with her and during the ministry time I got to pray with her. The Holy Spirit began to reveal to me some things from her past, so we invited Jesus to come into that pain and minister to her. She felt the comfort and presence of Jesus and heard him say in her spirit, “I’m never going to leave you!”

We were both crying and I asked her if she ever gave her life to Jesus and she said no. I asked her if she wanted to, and she said YES!!

So I got to lead this precious girl to JESUS!! She felt Jesus forgive her and then we prayed for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and she felt His tangible presence in her hand

Then as I continued praying over her, the Holy Spirit started revealing some more things and as I began praying those things out in faith, she began to cry and Jesus came in to the pain of the memory and we prayed together to surrender the pain to Jesus and break off a spirit of rejection. After we prayed, she said the pain of the memory completely left her and she was SET FREE!

THAT’S MY JESUS!!

RESCUER. REDEEMER. COMFORTER. HEALER. SAVIOR!

There is absolutely NOTHING better then reconnecting someone to their Heavenly Father ALL GLORY BE TO GOD!

One of our team member's sisters put this Highlight video together from our outreach in Boston!

Another Local Outreach Testimony...

Josiah got the most amazing gift for his birthday from Daddy God!

Every Friday eve we have outreach with YWAM and one Friday our team felt God leading us to go to the Pagoda in Reading and pray! We got there close to Sunset and there was close to 100 people there hanging out, so we split into teams and asked God to lead us to show us who to talk to and share Jesus with.

Josiah felt led to go up to a group of young adults who were smoking out of a Hookah. He boldly went up and started conversation and then told them he would love to pray with anyone who wanted prayer. Then he walked to the side and one of the guys came and said they wanted him to pray for all of them! Josiah grabbed some other of the teammates and they went over and Josiah ended up preaching the simple gospel and the whole group prayed to give their lives to Jesus! it was one of the girls in the group birthday too! BEST BIRTHDAY GIFT EVER!!

JESUS IS WORTHY of every nation and every soul!

ENCOUNTER YOUTH GROUP

THIRTEEN youth from our Encounter Youth group were baptized in June! It’s been such an honor walking with this group the past 5 months and seeing Jesus transform their lives!

Almost all of their Amish families were there to celebrate with them and it was such a beautiful picture of heaven all coming together as the body of Christ!

*Please pray for each of the 13 youth and for their families to continue to walk in the presence of God and walk in his ways.

*Please also pray for the Encounter group that each one would know God’s incredible love for them and find freedom and healing in him!
