Hey guys,

Hope this finds everyone well and enjoying whatever you're all up to. It's been a little while since we blogged so I'll try remember whats been going on and fill you in...

We had our second taste of Praying on the streets of Weston last Saturday (3rd July). We had a few extra people join us which was great. We were able to pray with a number of people and see God touch people's lives. One lady had trouble lifting her right arm at all, she could literally not lift it but after prayer she could lift it up to a right angle with her shoulder! It was great! And a young girl was prayer for after her heel had been causing her trouble when she walked with her friends, we prayed and God touched her and she was feeling great afterwards, jumping up and down with no problem at all. God is so good!

I was able to go to a men's breakfast in Bath early on Saturday, which was a great time. Met a couple of great men and had a great free breakfast! good times. We've met quite a lot of fun and exciting people since coming back from America. It's been such a blessing because we often felt isolated in Cheddar, but it's been great to meet some people who are excited about what God's doing in this region and it's really on our heart to partner with these people and see unity grow.

We've both not had jobs since being back, which has sometimes led to boredom because of the English rain meaning we can't always go out and walk or do things, so I was really excited to work for a few hours in our church-run Cafe on Tuesday. The Cafe is a great place in Cheddar that offers people the usual selection of food and drink, and it was great to be in there on Tuesday and work with some amazing people. I'll be working in the Cafe on Tuesdays throughout July and possibly picking up some other hours here and there.

Izzy led a housegroup on Monday night on the topic of healing. She did really well, talked about Bethel's take on God's desire for healing and some of the testimonies from when she worked in the Healing Rooms and practically how the Healing Rooms happened. She did amazingly well and finished the night with a time of prayer for the various members of the group. She's amazing and it's exciting to see her grow and become more confident.

The rest of July is shaping up to be great. We're heading up to Nottingham in the East Midlands to spend most of next week with Hannah and Matt, Izzy's sister and brother-in-law which will be great. We're dropping into see our good friends Matt and Elaine on the way up. I'll also be hoping to see some friends from uni who are still in Nottingham. At the end of the month, my friend from university, Dan, will be getting married somewhere near Watford I think. I've also been asked to do a reading at the wedding ceremony which is a great honour and priviledge. My friend Adam and I will be speaking at our church at the end of the month too. Our church will be having some interesting meetings in the coming weeks. Please do pray for wisdom and vision as we have meetings to do with the way forward for us. I also start pre-season training for my local football (or soccer for my American friends!) team tonight. Really looking forward to getting back into it.

Anyways, there's a small insight into what we've been up to the last week or so. We'd love to hear from you wherever you are in the world. Please do get in touch.

Please pray for us for open doors and wisdom on how to continue to move forward.

Thanks for reading. Until next time, may God bless you loads.

Love you all
Liam and Izzy : )

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:1-8
