Greetings!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving we thank you for being in our family, either naturally, or spiritually!  We thank God for your love, your thoughtfulness and kindness you have shown us over the years. May you celebrate Thanksgiving Day naming your blessings and counting them one by one and giving thanks to the Lord for all He's done!  Purposefully being a thankful person pulls down strongholds of negative thinking!  It's a weapon of our warfare as a Christian that satan does not want us to use very often!  1 Thes. 5:17
Randy would like to express a special thanks to all of you who sent comforting emails, notes, and cards concerning the death of his brother.

Tea and Crumpets - a Prophetic Party -November 6
This prophetic celebration started with tea and ended with lots of ladies being encouraged deeply.Our long time friend and ministry partner, Robin Rumbolt ( a prophetess) came for a visit and together we hosted a special day for women to be instructed, encouraged and refreshed.  Robin gave a brief teaching on the prophetic followed by three hours of prophetic words being spoken over every one in attendance.  Robin and I have done "tag team" ministry in the past but this was an off-the-chart fun time as the Holy Spirit moved in our midst! 

Aglow International - November 9th

Funny how things in our life can come "full circle". Over 30 years ago I was involved in Aglow International in Maryland.  This year I have been blessed to speak at a couple of Florida meetings. At the November 9th meeting in Venice the Lord told me to release "breakthrough" to the ladies. 

 

After a teaching on "Fruit that Remains", the Holy Spirit touched many hearts as Jesus' healing love was released.  Favor and peace were imparted.  Robin, Judi, Melody and several WOTL gals attended and helped me minister to the ladies.  Again, another FUN NIGHT with Jesus!  Wish you all were there!

HEALING ROOMS
Randy continues to minister at the Healing Rooms where he is really appreciated for his wisdom and loving approach to healing. In January we are slated to again present the Restoration Prayer Workshop to the healing room teams.  Some who attended the first training have received further equipping to be facilitators.  Glory to God!



CHANGES
To everything there is a season. Randy and I both are in a season of change.  Some community outreaches that we have been involved with are coming to an "end of the season", or are changing in some ways.  Other ministry opportunities are rising on the horizon but the picture is not yet clear.  We'd love your prayers!.

CHRISTMAS TRAVEL PLANS
On the 17th of December we fly to our daughter's home in TexasGrandbaby Paige at 10 weeks.  Our kids provided air fare and we will spend ten days of "baby-lovin-time" and enjoy a real family Christmas as our son, Alex, will also fly in to join us. It has been several years since we have been together as a family for Christmas!  Yes, we are excited!

Well, that's some of the news. We will try to keep you as partners, intercessors, friends, and family updated but sometimes life gets a head of us faster than we get to communicate with you.

May you have a blessed Thanksgiving holiday and may you always and in every circumstance of life remember to give thanks.  You will always be doing the will of God when you do that.  Marvelous, eh?.

Love and prayers for grace to abound to you every day,

  Prison Outreach
Report

Thanks to the huge response by many of you we have met and gone over our goal of raising $300.00
to provide our sisters in prison with much needed personal items for their Christmas Gift Bag!

Many of these incarcerated women are now sisters in the Lord.  Many are seeking.
Your expression of love may speak to their hearts of the Father's love for them.

Hebrews 13:3.
"Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison.."
