Operation Easter Egg

The Church that I attend to in DC puts on Community outreach every easter, to reach out and love on those that sorrund us. inviting them and their families to have fun w/us and get to know us and find out what we are about. There was music, crafts, face painting and more!

The egg hunt was a great success ------>





And last but not least...

'SeeSaw Against Slavery'

Volunteered at a Christian event to raise funds to fight against the Child Sex Trade in Cambodia, where we took one hours shifts and SeeSawed for 24 hours.

All funds went to Agape International Missions.

Ok folks, there you have it... a snapshot of my life back in the Sates thus far ;-)

"It is Zion for whom no one cares" Jer 30:17

"...You who call on the Lord, give yourselves no rest, and give Him no rest till He establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth." Isaiah 62:6b-7

I do not know of many other more powerful and clear statement about God's heart for the Israelites, or of more clear a command for those who claim to be well acquainted with the Giver of Life, Creator of the Universe, God Almighty...

I have been presented with an amazing opportunity to go to Israel in September, to participate in a Convocation dedicated to intercede. People from all the nations come to the convocation to pray for Israel and all the nations.

"And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles."
Zech 14:16

I will be going with a group of people from England composed of individuals from different churches. Our traveling dates are Sept 6th through the 22nd.

Please keep me in your prayers that God would be preparing me, even now:

-physically: Keep me healthy before during and after the trip (no jet lag or exhaustion),

-spiritually: It is a schedule packed with worship, A LOT OF INTERCESSORY PRAYER and listening to testimonies of what God is doing in the nations of the world. I need
spiritual stamina and a soft heart to listen to His leading, specially in prayer.

-emotionally: If you've ever done any sort of focused Christian work you know that emotions can all of the sudden go haywire as part of the spiritual warfare, specially the thought life. Pray against that.

Thank you so much for your prayers... There are even MORE trips that I will be taking this Fall [Autumn as my British friends prefer to say ;-)] I will post info about that later on...

In General...

Oh, my- oh, my - oh, my.... I've completely neglected my blog. Please forgive me?

I had started to write an entry a month ago and I could have sworn I had posted it, and now I realized I never did! :-\.

Uncool.

Anyways, lets try to right the wrong now. Are you ready? Let's get up to speed.

I arrived back from England in mid February. The trip was amazing as you well know. God went definitely before me preparing divine appointments, places to stay, ministry opportunities and great lovely ppl to befriend!

I am now in Washington DC... and AGAIN, God IS FAITHFUL.

Coming back from England I didnt know where I was going to live. You see I dont have a car anymore so the city I live in had to be strategic so as to be able to move around without personal transportation. So I thought: 'Alright God, its looking like NYC, Denver or DC (since then Ive also heard that Chicago has great public transport). What do You think?'

My sister lives in Washington DC but she has since moved to a smaller apt and the new roomates made it clear they were ok with ppl visiting as long as they didn't stay for more than a week! ' This I knew before I left for England. 'Alright God, what do You have planned?!'

In the plane ride back to the US I felt settled in my heart it was Washington DC were I needed to be, but again I had no idea how I was going to afford it or WHERE I was going to live since staying with my sister was out of the qst. I put it in God's hands because, at the end of the day, 'who can by worrying add a cubit to his stature'?

I arrived at Dulles Airport in DC my sister picked me up. The next day I was thinking, 'what is the next step? I can't stay here very long...' In the afternoon as I lay on the bed looking at the ceiling, my sister blurts out: 'You know you can stay here 'til September right?'... 'Uhmmm, no, no I didn't..." I said with a slightly confused look on my face. 'I thought the girls said they didn't want ppl staying for very long?' 'Yeah,' she replied, 'but I asked them again while you were away and they said is fine, they love you.'

Hahahaha, what?!! God had already sorted out all the living arrangement details while I was away. :-) Oh, my God is GOOD!

Seriously peeps, why do we even worry? He cares for the birds and the flowers, He obviously cares about us more than we care about ourselves!

So here I am: trusting Him, dwelling in the land, feeding on His faithfulness and delighting in His presence- seeking His face. (Psalm 37:3-4)

I will be Stateside until Aug/Sept time and do hope to visit you all while I'm here. Please pray for that (cheap airfares).

As for the future, I will write to you more about the plans He has been revealing and unfolding on another post.

I love you all! Thank you so much for your kindness and your prayers. Don't forget: This are exciting times we are living in, let us continue to watch and pray!
