From David's Desk
Greetings!
Welcome to our new-look newsletter!
We have changed the look of the newsletter and know that you will enjoy reading the latest in news and stories from around the world by people who are waving, creating, making, dancing and ministering with banners and flags.
We pray that you will be encouraged to pursue the banner-using assignment that God has placed in your heart.
It has been a very busy few months here at OOOMB with workshops and conferences in Australia, South Africa and the USA. I am currently on a trip returning to France and Italy - and for the first time I'm running workshops in Switzerland and England!
We are developing the itinarary for 2008, so if you would like us to swing around your part of the world be sure to let us know!
The release of the printed version of the "Wielding Banners" book has generated a lot of enthusiastic feedback. I am looking forward to seeing God do wonderful things all over the world as a result of it being able to go to places where I can't. We have had some fantastic endorsements come in from well known (and not so well known) people. I encourage you to get your own copy to inspire you to release God's purposes through banners and flags throughout the earth.
Keep the stories coming - we are having more and more people send testimonies about the good things that are happening when they step out in faith and raise the standard of the Lord.

 Banners Add an Extra Dimension to Dance
I began to use banners when I went to my first dance conference many years ago. This was something very new for me but I found that many dancers at the conference used them in all shapes, sizes and colors.
As I became more and more familiar with combining the banners with dance I learned that there was an added dimension that came with the combination of the two.
The very first time I danced God spoke very clearly that this was something that He was going to use to bless others. I had asked Him to send angels to push back the darkness and for Him to come and dance with me. After I completed the dance a lady in the congregation stood and said she watched the host of heaven push back the darkness and then she said "I saw the Lord, He was dancing with Julie".
