Spring Break!

Posted by James |0 comments

We are now a couple of days into our Spring break! Some of the interns have gone home to be with their families, others have decided to stay here and relax for a well needed break... rest is good in allowing us to slow down and have a chance to seek Father's perspective in the present circumstance. So far the weather has been rainy which adds to the "lazy day" feeling. I have never been a big fan of these days, finding boredom comes easily, but to be honest, it's been quite nice. With the ones who have stayed back, we have watched one of our new favorites "Man vs Wild", and the classic, "The Office". I have been able to do some recording and am working on a new Pinnacle video, which will be done soon!

As for the update on the Metro West youth group, we had an amazing time! These kids are great! The Spirit poured into them throughout the whole weekend! The youth showed up around 5 and after dinner we fellowshipped with each other, then we prayed and prophesied over them. Why not just dive right in? :) The next morning we had dream interpretation with Scott and the youth shared some powerful dreams. After lunch, we went up to the Pinnacle to show them around the mountain so they could experience the high place and the Lord's presence. Jourdan also led us into another wonderful time of worship and then we headed back for dinner. After dinner, Kyle and I had aligned out some games that we would be playing for the evening. I can't remember the name of the game we played, but it's kind of like telephone charades. One person from the first team would act out a scene (like changing a tire) and the second team would have to act out the scene, one bye one, only going by what they have been shown from their team member who went before them. Excellent game, great fun!

We were blessed to have the time with this youth group. I believed we both gave and received from each other and are grateful to have had a chance to build relationship! Thank you for coming Metro West youth!

NEW! John Paul Jackson Pinnacle Video

Posted by Streams School of Ministry, NH |0 comments

Hey everyone!

Just wanted you all to get a chance to view John Paul's newest video, concerning the Pinnacle Prayer Mountain.  This is the mountain we are currently meeting on, the one we always talk about :)  This video explains the progression of how the mountain came to be a part of Streams Ministries, and where it is now! If you would like to know more about the Pinnacle, this is a great video to watch...click here! to view it.

Thursday Update:

Today we are preparing for the Metrowest kids to come and stay with us over the weekend.  We are so beyond excited to have them here at the intern house, and can't wait to fellowship and hang out with them...I remember being a youth group kid, and the wonder that surrounded a grown-up road trip.  I'm sure they're just as excited as we are :) Anyways, can't wait to meet them all!! We will blog all about the weekend's happenings after the weekend's over.

Blessings,

A fresh start this week of rain

Posted by Streams School of Ministry, NH |0 comments

This past weekend Scott taught the 202 class, "Advanced Workshop of Dreams & Visions". This course has deeper teaching in the understanding of dreams and supernatural events, but is focused on training and equipping the students for dream interpretation. There were a lot of powerful dreams shared that brought forth both healing and understanding to individuals in the class. Scott taught the class how to enter in a dream and feel where the weight is, or what God is breathing on. For each dream, he used the cluster method to show us how to diagram, finding the focus and sub-focuses and then writing in the details pertaining to each sub-focus. I am still amazed at how much God speaks to us in the night season! For me, dreams have easily been written off because of their nature being full of riddles or dark speech, but every time I interpret one or see dream being interpreted, I am reminded how powerful they are and the depth God speaks to us! Dreams truly are astounding... We all learned a ton, but by the end of the weekend some of us were pretty fried.. Interpreting dreams can be a lot of work!

If you would like to see some... interesting... skits we did for the class, we recorded them. View them here. Can you guess what Bible story the skit is?! I will also post some pictures later this week.

Coming up this weekend, we will have the Metro West Bridge youth group staying with us and hanging out! They will arrive here sometime on Friday and stay with us until Sunday. There will be teaching, games, chit chats, and ministry for these young men and woman of God! We are hoping to be a blessing to them, and to impart what Spirit would have them receive.

Since today, and the rest of the week will be rainy, the Pinnacle is cancelled tonight. I don't know what the road looks like, but I imagine it is pretty muddy. Hopefully we will be able to get up there sometime this week!

Have a great week everyone!

Peace,

Our Weekend At Northshore

Posted by Jourdan |0 comments

Last Sunday the interns took a little road trip to Beverly, Mass to do a service for the Northshore Bridge Church. Their usual worship leader (Josh Young) is in Australia and the pastor was scheduled for teaching a 202 class so he asked the interns to come to the church and do worship & minister to the body out of what we've gained from the Pinnacle mountain.

We started out with some worship, then Ali got up and spoke on the intern program and all the things God is doing within Streams School of Ministry. Then she called up the rest of the interns to give words over the body/individuals the Lord highlighted to us. Most of us got prophetic words for people and the congregation, and it was great to share that with the body.

Then we showed a video on Streams School of Ministry on the big-screen. You can see it by clicking here.

After the guest speaker finished, we did prophetic teams and dream teams after the service, all made up of interns and intern leaders. Lots of people came up for ministry, or to get a dream interpreted and many of them got touched by the Lord. We even saw a few people get physically healed! One woman we ministered to got healed of a thyroid issue, as well as some profound emotional healing. There were some truly beautiful, deep things happening under the surface in the hearts of the people there.

I think a lot of them got more emotional healing than they signed up for!
"the Lord's delight is in those who honor him, those who put their hope in his unfailing love." - Psalm 147:11

Shotguns, worship, and Rob Mazza

We have had a busy week.

First on Saturday we headed up to the Pinnacle to clean the tents and fix the road.

On Monday, our day off, several of us interns went to an old rock quarry to shoot skeets. First, Lance (one of our intern leaders) instructed us in gun safety and then soon we were shooting away. Although none of us were pro shooters we had lots of fun.

Then we had a surprise visit from Rob Mazza. He taught about speaking the Father's blessing over those we minister to, and awakening the human spirit. Then he began to speak this blessing over the interns. We normally have work duties in the afternoon but the ministry was so powerful we decided to receive instead of work, like Mary, instead of Martha.

As you know from previous posts we have been spending a lot of time on the Pinnacle Mountain and Rob also joined us last night in our humble tent as we worshiped the Creator. When we left the Mountain, We headed to Scott and Barb Evelyn's house for fellowship and some refreshments with Rob.

Tonight Jourdan led worship. The music and intercession is beginning to mix and become one. First we may sing and soon we are spontaneously praying, then singing again.

Tomorrow morning we are headed up for a personal devotion time on the Mountain. We are really pressing into the Lord for a greater measure of His manifest presence.

Here are some pictures from shooting and our day with Rob Mazza:

Spring's-a-Comin!

Posted by Jourdan |2 comments

Today we went to the Pinnacle at an odd time for the interns...9 am!

Our routine usually consists of work duties in the afternoon, then eating dinner, then going to the Pinnacle for evening corporate prayer/worship with some other church members. Today, however, we decided to go up in the morning and have a little individual time spent with the Lord.

We interns were encouraged to bring creative things such as paints, sketching pencils, notepads, or whatever else we felt led to do while on the mountain. It was a time set aside for our personal relationship with the Lord. Some of us stayed in the tent by the warm fire, and some of us ventured into the wild woody mountainside...I decided to take my beloved camera up to the top with me to get some good winter pics. It looks like spring is near. I wanted to make sure I got some good snowy Pinnacle pics before it all melts again.

Here are a few!

Spring is starting to peek it's little eyeballs out of it's snowy winter blanket...

Ali got a good spot.

Peace and rest,

We Lived!

We did it!

3 days of no power, and we survived.

Can you believe it.

We still have the snowboard ramp out back, and it is so much fun! We're all taking turns sledding and riding down it with boards, then fixing it up when one of us biffs hard. It's a blast.
I'll post some hilarious videos at the end of this post, after these pictures:

Brandon testing out the ramp with a sled, back when it was still pretty small...

fixing the jump at the bottom

David Boda practicing shooting a "target" with his new homemade longbow

Our walk-out fridge... :) had to put everything from our fridge into our 3 season room and opened the windows so it really was like our very own walk-in (or out) fridge!

soup over the fire, and snow being melted so we can flush the toilets...
oh yeah, we were most definitely roughing it.

lunch made over the fire!

trying to stay warm!

tired boys from sleeping on the Pinnacle. Or, the lack thereof.



It was super fun while it lasted, but let's just say we will have a better backup plan most likely involving a generator for the next time we have a 3 day power outage.

Stay warm everyone!
