What Will Chapter 2 Look Like?

This past Sunday was the last meeting our launch team had at Mike Reed's home. Mike had a great home for our team to gather. We are now off this weekend to OB Elementary, down in the heart of Ocean Beach. If I could have written a script a year ago about our first four months as a launch team, I could have never dreamed it to be so good.

During the past four months, we have heard some amazing life stories about what God has been doing with members of our team. We were able to celebrate with Michelle being healed on March 15. The Easter sunset service was so cool. I hit the crescendo of the gospel message just as the sun was setting. Talk about cool pyrotechnics. I loved watching our team praying with folks after the message. Looks like we will be having lots more services down at the beach.

Praises:

1. Our worship team is starting to take shape and I think we nailed the demographic for OB for worship style.

2. Courtney, the young lady who has been living with us, is being set free from some heavy oppression. I have the seen Jesus work more miracles in her life in the past six weeks than anytime in my life.

3. Great Surf Trip to Baja over Memorial weekend. We had two amazing teaching and prayer session. Oh, the waves were crazy good too!

Prayer Ammo:

1. Michelle's back is still hurting. She had a epidural Thursday, but the pain has actually increased instead of decreasing. The intense pain is a struggle.

2. Good friend Cynthia, who has suffered with chronic illness for years. We are praying for healing.

3. Tommy and Carlos, who are struggling with addictions. They are believers but need lots of "barrowed hope."
