We have been going snowboarding on Wednesdays and Saturdays. On Saturdays we invite the local snowboarding community to a free dinner at the town at the base of the mountain. The last couple weeks we have had about 15 people or so. This opens up the ability to communicate, plant seeds, talk about Christ, or just simply love people. Please pray that we would be effective in inviting people, in our conversations at the mountain and also at the dinner.
In a couple weeks we are having a premier of a snowboarding video called “One Year.” We are advertising this all around and expecting 200-300 people. It is a video talking about how some amazing snowboarders who weren’t Christians, became Christians and how they love snowboarding. We believe it will be a great way to reach snowboarders. Pray for this day which is a week from this coming Saturday.
We are hosting a “rail jam” the day before. A week from this coming Friday. This is where snowboarders do tricks on railings, different shaped boxes, and off jumps. This will also be a great opportunity to talk to the snowboarding community. Please pray for us as we host this and make friendships with the people that come.
Tomorrow I will be going with a group to the local city, Christchurch. We are doing outreach called “hizzy spizzy” which is slang for Holy Spirit. We will go into the city and pray for what God wants us to do, who He wants us to talk to, and pray for. Pray that God will lead us through this time. That people will be open to what He wants us to do. That we will obey God and how He leads us.
I forgot to tell everyone! 5 people got healed the other night! The first guy was sick in his bed all day. Some guys prayed for him and he was healed. He was really sick and then felt fine. Another’s almost broken elbow was healed. Another with a really bad knee was healed. Another with a bad back was healed. And another sick guy was healed. It was amazing! We are expecting that God will continue to work in our group and through us!
Please pray for miracles! For people to come to Christ! For healing, both physically and spiritually.
p.s. The base leader here has been talking to us about how they are going to Turkey to start another Snowboarding DTS (that is what I am on!). They will be scouting out the locations, setting stuff up, etc. They will have a group go in January that I am considering joining. Also they will be sending people with a 2 yr. commitment to the same place to start the base. I am also praying about this!
