North-east Travels

it seems like ages since i was in england, even though it was about 10 days ago. it's been super intense, but amazing. we were in new jersey for about 4 days at the 100 hour Burn, which was incredible. one day us interns took the slots from 2am to 8am, and it was amazing. We went to NYC one day to the subway tunnels to worship and pray for people, which was real cool. then we did some sightseeing - Times Square, Central Park, etc.

After New Jersey/new york, we drove 8 hours to Virginia Beach. we got there saturday night, and we did a church service on the sunday morning, i led worship. It was really great, God gave us words to share with the church and we got to pray for people. in the evening we went to another church which was basically just free prophetic worship - awesome.

Then monday morning we drove 4 hours to Washington, D.C. We met people there who run a 'Justice House of Prayer' right in the centre of D.C. They really focus on praying for the government and issues like abortion and homosexual marriage. On tuesday morning we got to spend a few hours crying out to God for the nation, which is in desperate need of prayer. We got to do some sightseeing in D.C. - saw the Lincoln memorial, Washington monument, the White House, etc. That evening we led a meeting of a youth group at a church near D.C. Again God gave us all prophetic words for the young people. At one point i got up to read a passage (Titus 2:11-14) that God gave me to share, and I ended up preaching for 5 or 10 minutes. It was awesome to see God at work in their lives.

On wednesday morning we drove 4 hours to Roanoke, Virginia, where i currently am. Today i'm gonna spend some time with Rachel and her family (who live here), should be gd.

This saturday we fly to Israel, where we'll be for about 4 weeks. It's gonna be life-changing, I can't wait!
