It has been a wee while since I have written to my adoring fans... Oh how I make myself giggle ;)
I have had so much that I could write about, but if I write about it all, I wouldn't give do them justice. So, I'm gonna stick them all down on a post it note beside my computer and when life in the Youth Department is slow, (which will most likely be Julaugust 2009,) I'll write about it then.
Last Friday saw the launch of my territories 24/7 Prayer initiative. There were about 100 people in the Railton Chapel here at THQ; 4 were not officers. Lead by the indominable Major Janet Munn, we entered into a year of 24 hours a day, 7 days a week prayer. As we sat there, and anticipated the year ahead, it was as if all 100 or so of us were standing in the queue for the biggest rollercoaster on the face of God's green earth. I know it sounds cliche, but knowing God has lead me to believe that just about anything can happen when He has obedient people to hand. When I stand in line for a rollercoaster, I know that I am gonna scream, I know I am gonna giggle, I know I am gonna be so amused that I won't be able to let a word leave my lips as I try to take in all of what is happening around me. I'm expecting that from God this year, I'm expecting Him to be big and LOUD. So as the personnel of THQ spend time on their knees in Railton it is the hope that they build a stable foundation for the territory.
I had the priviledge of being in couple of times, the first with one of the leaders of the territory, ha, some people could say not one word and yet they would impress me; and the second time with some of my lassies. It is precious time... I wish I could share some of the prayers with you all, so being that I can't I invite you all to come and visit Railton!
Major Munn has just sent an e-mail saying that the Commissioner feels we need to keep the prayer room at THQ open another week! I feel a giggle coming on!

aww yay! i was one of those lassies! It was a very cool experience and i would definitely do it again, I don't know about doing it from 3-6 am again though! lol It's kinda cool to know that someone is praying right now and may even be praying about what i wrote down! That's crazy, in a cool way...so if its open for another week and you need somebody..I would be willing to do it, although transportation may be an issue, we could figure something out.
For anyone reading this, I highly recommend that you sign up somewhere and expirience this prayer room!
peace Mhairi! Love you!
and thanks for reminding me about this experience, it slipped my mind for a wee second!
"your adoring fans" smile right along with you Mhairi, and fortunately we pray right along with you too.....thanks for reminding me what an adventure following the Christ is.... everyday has amazing new creations in it .... from the hand of God to His children.... gifts that so much of the world rushes right by ... chasing the shallow sparkle of this worlds brightly packaged pig slop.....pray in that THQ prayer room that the Holy Spirit will everyday lead the prodicals of this world through our doors,....... and lead us into the streets , homes,and hallways of hell, where they stand bored with the emptyness of satans' gifts, ............and dying to taste the richness of life, in the heart of their Creator-God .......
you remain an enthusiastic blessing
