Partners 307: "Toronto Blessing” , Missions Seminar, Meditation Prayer, Rock Church

“Toronto Blessing” Meetings at Founders Inn, Virginia Beach, Feb 20-23, 2008: Free in the evenings. These are the meetings where people of all denominations have been experiencing the healing Presence of the Father’s love for 12 years. In my 20 years as a pastor in several denominations, I have not seen better spiritual results in people after attending meetings connected with this group out of Toronto, Canada. Not everyone is touched in the same way, but for some—like me—the Lord can change your life in these meetings. Millions of people around the world would agree with that. Day sessions require registration and a fee. Evenings are free and start at 7 Pm with worship. Tonight, Gordon Robertson, CEO of CBN, is speaking. Thursday night, Pastor Bill Johnson will preach. He leads a church iin California where the congregation goes into the streets each week to pray over the sick. Many are healed and many come to Jesus as a result! Friday is John Arnott, pastor of the small church in Toronto in 1994 where this all started. Saturday night is Duncan smith, Executive Director of this ministry. He really relates to young people!

Ruth Fazal in “Soaking Prayer” Evening: March 10th from 7-9:30 p.m. Come and enjoy an evening of meditative prayer with one of the finest concert violinists you will ever hear. Ruth’s instrumental music is anointed. We will listen in silence and seek God: no speaker, no singing—just “soaking” in God’s Presence. This is a quiet, personal time with God that can be extremely refreshing in the Lord. I urge you to come. This free event happens at New Life Providence Church, 1244 Thompkins Lane, Virginia Beach, VA 23464-5228, (757)227-6930 or contact Al and Wendy Lassiter at freeandalive1@verizon.net , Click here to see more

It will go from 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM and will cost $25/person; including lunch and workbook (discounts are available for students and couples). This seminar will be like a "mini-Perspectives" course (biblical basis of missions, current trends, focus on 10/40 Window and "unreached" peoples, what God is doing in the world, etc.) and will give practical ideas for involvement.

A Muslim Becomes a Christian so His Mother Tries to Kill Him: See

http://www.cbn.com/CBNnews/282531.aspx Please pray for Muslim Backround Believers (MBB). They often suffer for choosing Jesus. Such believers are all around us in America more and more!

Continue to pray for Pastor Ann Gimenez, her daughter Robin and son-in-law, John Blanchard and the entire rock Church family as they mourn the loss of Bishop John Gimenez. It is the end of an era in Tidewater and a new beginning for the Rock Church Fellowship worldwide.

Blessings,
