Hello lovely wonderful people who are all each one of you amazing.
We had a brilliant day today. We have moved home to Olive house and our new room is so lovely, and we had yummy chocolate and lovely letters for us to welcome us home.
This morning at school Russell Evans came to talk to us. He was just fantastic. He's an aussie and started the movement planetshakers. http://www.planetshakers.com/
His talk was mainly his story, how he became a leader, when his english teacher in schoool said he couldn't communicate or write at all,
'In 1997 they founded Planetshakers Ministries, launching Planetshakers Conference in Adelaide, South Australia, with 300 delegates. They have seen it grow to over 20,000 national delegates.'

Some of his powerful talk was very quoteable for example:
"I'm not a monkey that got lucky, I'm a child of the living God!,"
"an altar call is a call to alter. Some people come forward and don't alter."
Then Chris Overstreet, Outreach Pastor here at Bethel Church, came up to talk about outreach and let two second years speak about how their neighbourhoods are getting transformed though love and Gods power. People are getting healed and supernaturally set free from addiction, on the spot. God is so GOOD!
We all then went out to our communities, so Liam and I went back Shasta Lake City, and there were quite a few people out. Me and Toby decided to do some prophetic art, so we sat down and got out paints etc, then a guy came over and talked to us for a long time, we were able to paint/ sketch pictures for him to have and take home, he was so blessed and they meant a lot to him.

Our missions trip is drawing ever closer, here is some of the things we will be doing:

'We will have an amazing opportunity to release Kingdom Mercy and Justice in a variety of outlets in Quito, Ecuador. We will be ministering to youth in youth prisons, ministering to and feeding malnourished children in their feeding program, and distributing supplies and loving on women and their babies in the nation’s largest maternity hospital for impoverished families. We also will reach out to prostitutes and love on them. We’ll be taking to the streets for treasure hunting and prophetic evangelism, as well as ministering to local believers through a conference. In addition to being in Quito, the team will have the incredible opportunity to travel to a small village off the Ecuadorian coast where we will deliver supplies (food, clothes, etc.) and bring the Gospel to a hurting community.'

Its going to be such an exciting time. :)

God Bless you all, and thankyou for reading about our lives, we are SO blessed that you would give up your time to read.

We love you,
Izzy and Lil
