Prayer Points

1. Praise God that we live in a nation that enjoys freedom and safety.  Let's pray that Canadians everywhere will recognize the true source of all the blessings they enjoy, and give the Lord thanks.
 
2. Pray for M.P.s who are now in their home ridings for the summer that they will build into their busy schedules some time for their families and for some rest.
 
3. Pray for the many Canadians who are headed to "The Call" in Nashville this coming week, that they will bring back the fire of passionate love for the Lord that would infect many congregations across the land.
 
4. Don't forget to pray for Prime Minister Stephen Harper, as we obey the scriptures in praying for all those in authority.

Rob & Fran Parker join many other national speakers to pray for our nation this weekend.
 
Greetings!
 
We had a wonderful visit this week with two ladies from Les Filles de la Sagesse, (Daughters of Wisdom) the order which had previously used our building as a convent.  Pierrette and Paulette, who now reside in their new facilities not far away, were very encouraging as they honoured the new work of the Lord in this place. 
 
They have promised to return and tell others about our house of prayer.  We are even talking about how they could participate with us in a contemplative prayer opportunity. 
 
What an honour it was for us to meet them and recognize the devout love for Jesus in their hearts.

Some testimonies from the National School of Intercession.  
 
 
What an awesome time we had last week with a hundred intercessors from all across Canada who came to our first National School of Intercession.
Big thanks go to Sara Maynard and her Cityscape team from Vancouver who joined with us.  Worship leaders, Jill Weber from GOHOP and Esther Leung-Kong set the stage in every session.
 
Here's some of the early feedback that we have been receiving ...
 
"Bonjour,  to all of you, Wonderful, mighty warriors of God. Thank you so much for that wonderful time you gave us in this special week set apart for God's purpose in our life.
I had a breakthrough that was given to me with the leaders and I know I will never be the same.  Glory to God.
God did marvelous things in bringing us in one (unity) to see His kingdom come and His will be done in each of our provinces and in the whole Canada. I beleive for one heart, one mind, one spirit in Him for His perfect will for our country." - Claire from Quebec City
 
"Thank you for an AWESOME week at the school of
Intercession. It by far surpassed our expectations.
The NHOP and Cityscape Prayer did a great job for HIS glory." - Todd & Christine from Oshawa

"I thought the teaching was outstanding, and cannot wait to pass it on to others!  It has already radically changed the way I pray!  Thanks so much for all of your labor in the Lord, and for your friendship." - Jill from Burlington

We are now seriously looking at running this intensive training school in other parts of Canada.  We will keep you posted as things develop.

Our team from NHOP, Rob, Fran, Richard and Terry will be providing spiritual oversight at the Christian Leadership Training Camp (CLTC) this week at the Bearbrook Farm just south east of Ottawa.  Pastor Rob McKee (from The Life Centre) will be the keynote speaker, and a team of leaders (3) from New York and California, experienced in leading youth camps will be facilitators for the youth (13- 25 yrs) activities.   Worship will be led by "Spora" from Kingston, Ont.
 
 

Thanks for standing with us in prayer. 

Bless you all on this "Dominion Day" weekend!
