Prayer Guide - Day 28

Pray this scripture over Dr. Burleson:



 ¹ The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me,
   because the LORD has anointed me
   to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
   to proclaim freedom for the captives
   and release from darkness for the prisoners,
² to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor
   and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
 ³ and provide for those who grieve in Zion—
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
   instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
   instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
   instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
   a planting of the LORD
   for the display of his splendor. 

Isaiah 61:1-3

Fellowship and new Friends in the UK!

The theme for today was "fellowship"...and lots of it!  Breakfast in -- lunch out -- supper away. Traveled north with Senior Saints group. Visited historic Kirkley hall. Lydia made great new friends. Wonderful supper with family. Even celebrated a birthday on a crisp sunset evening!

John Wesley marker

Walking along the Tyne river we discovered this amazing marker...

Celebrated preacher and Christian theologian, Wesley is largely credited, along with his brother Charles, as founding the Methodist movement which began when he took to open-air preaching...at this very spot!  It was a highly successful evangelical movement in the United Kingdom, which encouraged people to experience Jesus Christ personally!

Prayer Guide - Day 24

Pray for the Holy Spirit’s presence to remove any mental barriers which seek to bind people from responding to the Lord.

Touring Gateshead, England!

A wonderful first day of August touring our host city. (mid-60's high temp...ok you're right that's not nice)  The city lies on the southern bank of the River Tyne opposite Newcastle. Gateshead town center and Newcastle city center are joined by seven different bridges across the Tyne, including the amazing landmark Gateshead Millennium Bridge (pictured below) which swivels up on its axels.  A stop at the nearby lighthouse and North Sea coastline continued our day.  Rolling hills, nearby countryside, quaint shops, and bustling industry combine to form a delightful area. Church hospitality and fellowship have abounded!  Pray for Ian & Irene (church leaders pictured below).

Thank you for your continued prayers!
