And here we go again!

This weekend the interns will once again be leaving the intern house, this time traveling to Beverly, Massachusetts to do a service for the Northshore Bridge.  Our intern worship team will be working with Josh Young's worship team (which is going to be awesome!) then we'll be taking the rest of the service from there. 

Andy, Kyle, and Liz are going to get up and share a few testimonies about how they were transformed since being a part of this program, then we'll get to do some ministry with the body! We're really looking forward to melding with Northshore, and fellowshipping with the people.

I'll post more when we get back...pictures, testimonies, etc.


But for now, I'll leave you with some pictures of our beautiful state of New Hampshire, with Spring in full swing!! These photos are just around our intern house, down the street...all in the neighborhood.

Hello everyone!

Here are a few of the pictures from our trip to The Bridge Long Island, when we adventured through New York City:

















 






 





We had so much fun!

Anyway, this weekend, the interns will be at the Northshore Bridge in Beverly, Mass for another Sunday service.  We'll be taking over the service like we did last time! <---click here to read about it.

We are really excited to get to minister to the body again! Last time we did this it was a mutual blessing for both the body and the Streams interns. They are so kind and accommodating.

Just a little while later we'll be headed off to Portland, Maine for another big outreach! More info on that one to come...

Blessings,

Back From NYC!

And we're back.

The interns' trip to Long Island and NYC went so well! We were welcomed like family among the Long Island Bridge, and let me tell you, they fed us like family too. Such a warm welcome from a warm group of people.

After the 6 hours of driving in our big intern van, we arrived at the church and were served a beautiful meal by Nadine Zawacki, the pastor's wife.  After dinner we got to sit and chat with both Tom and Nadine and get to know their hearts and passions in ministry.

Then we helped out the church members and participated in a work day, where we threw out a whole dumpster full of church junk that "needed to go see Jesus!" Another great meal was had, and the next morning we set out for New York City for an adventuresome day full of crazy events in the big apple.  

We spent the day in the city - went to times square, saw ground zero, walked around central park, saw the empire state building and the statue of liberty, and pretty much saw the entire city when we got lost in the van while looking for a parking spot...it's like finding a needle in a haystack, trust me. But it turned out to be a beautiful day for walking!

After some ministry at the church that night and then some much needed rest, we led the service on Sunday morning, and it was so great to minister to the people.  We did worship, a few intern testimonies, and prayer/impartation over every person at the end. We got some great feedback from the people, which was very encouraging!


To hear what the interns shared on Sunday morning, you can visit the Long Island Bridge website here and listen to the whole message.

I have so many pictures from our trip to the city, so I'll put them up in a separate post in a little bit!


Peace and rest,

More From UCONN...

Everyone, be prepared for me to rock your worlds yet again...I know, I know, you're probably thinking "geez Jourdan, stop it already! I just can't take all this awesomeness!" but you'll live. Really.




So here's the big secret:

I got testimonies from UCONN...just like I promised :)

I gotta be careful, or I'll get a big head from all this following through I've been doing lately.



This testimony is from Matthew Keating, a 2nd year leader:



"While we were at UCONN we ministered to several Hindus. One group of three of them came in a little skeptical. First, we ministered to the young woman. We spoke several detailed words of knowledge to her about her childhood but we veiled the words to keep her covered because she was obviously abused and we did not want to openly say, “You were abused.” The young lady knew that God saw her pain and wanted to heal her.

As we finished ministering to the young lady I felt one man's skepticism even though we had accurately prophesied over his friend. So I turned to him and said “I feel you appraising our words. You are wondering how we can know these things and it is hard for you to believe that we do. That appraisal is a gift that God gave you to be able to protect people and act wisely. You appraise, analyze, and weigh out everything.” All three of them looked at each other and laughed. Immediately his life and destiny opened up to us.

Next we ministered to the third man. He was a seer, and very creative, but had been very hurt by people all his life because of his personality and gifting. We ministered healing to him and a Father's blessing. All of them were blown away and wanted to hear more about God the Creator." -Matthew Keating



And from David Boda, 2nd year intern:



"I had a young man sit down in front of me in the tent who, after my team finished giving him and his friends words, asked us if he could give us some words as well. At first I was taken aback but then I told him that he could; by all means.

He proceeded to tell each of the people on our team very true things about ourselves. It turns out that he had a strong gift of revelation and had known things about people he couldn't have known by natural means all of his life. He told me something that I needed to hear and it just goes to show how God can speak through any person He wants.

A couple nights before we showed up at UCONN this young man had a dream about coming to our tents, as they look in reality, and meeting the two leaders of our program. The Holy Spirit had prepared him for our showing up and the student said that the things our team had said to him had really encouraged him. It showed me how there are gifted people walking around all over the
place, with gifts that God has stuck into them; it is such an honour to be able to point them to the Giver of all those gifts." - David Boda



We really had some great encounters at UCONN this year...Quite frankly, if we as Christians just go out into the world and start doing something, He will always meet us there. He loves His people, even the ones drowning in darkness...and He is always looking for ways to touch their hearts. We are simply vessels of His love. That's how we see it anyway.

Hope you liked the testimonies!

Blessings,
Jourdan M.
