Hello all our lovely friends,
We just got back from an ugly christmas sweater birthday party for our friend Scott which was fun, we played games, ate and prophesied.
This week has been good, full of parties and christmasy things. On monday we went clay pigeon shooting with Bens parents who are in town for a week. Lil was really good at it and got a lot of the clay pigeons, i thought i'd be good at it but when it came to holding the gun it was so heavy that i could only hold it for 2 shots, both were non moving targets. =(
This week at school has been fun, the talks have been really amazing, and we are just loving being around so many wonderful friends everyday. Kris Valloton did a question and answer session which was interesting... some strange questions. We love that Kris doesn't try and answer things he doesn't know the answer to, he just says he doesn't know! He is so relaxed and funny when he talks.
Last weekend the church did a 'holiday feast'. its put on for the people in Redding who live in poverty. Its amazinggggg. so much love is poured into them, around 800-1000 people were fed, given clothes, toys, love and much more.
Tomorrow is our final day of this term, then we have 2 weeks off for Christmas. We are moving out of Olive Ave to Ben and Sarahs house, then we are at Scott and Yaris for christmas eve and day. we are very excited, we even have english christmas pudding.
I have got go and finish my homework thats due tomorrow, only a little bit thankfully. It does get on top of you if you dont do some everyday. (which we mostly do)
Check y'all later

Hi all,
This weeks been fun so far. Tuesday was good, it was my, izzys, creative track. Theres 70 people in it. we have personal projects to do and get to choose a group project. I've applied to do this group project:
4 – Healing Art (Team Leader: Petra D & 2nd yr) We want to explore the ways that Art brings healing to others and are looking for people to research healing arts through Art therapy, gather testimonies from the healing rooms on how art is healing others, as well as our Arts activation testimonies. We want to then begin to write and explore training in Healing in the Arts which can be taken in hospitals, missions, and other places. You will become activated to explore and do healing through art as you begin to practice healing in various places.
wow.hopefully ill get it.
Theres 17 to choose from, from fashion, to culinary art to film, drama, interior design (they wanna do mini extreme makeovers underpriviledged childrens rooms).
so theres loads.
Tuesday night we had healing rooms training. on a Saturday the church open some big rooms and people from ALL over the world come to get prayer for healing. you can even skype in, they have 3 skype stations. and every week 200+ people come. its amazing. EVERY WEEK God touches people, every week deaf people from births ears pop open and they can hear, cancers fall off, blind people see, one week(they called it popcorn healing) 10 people in the rooms ears popped open all who had been deaf, just because Gods presence is so strong. crazy huh! although it become less crazy and more normal now.
oh they also have artists painting in there and dancers dancing and a band worshiping. :) cos God loves it when we create.
A man called Joaquin Evans spoke who runs the healing rooms with Chris Gore(-this is chris' website.) ...
http://www.kingdomreleasers.org/about-us.html
They talked about the healing rooms, then got us all blasted with the Holy spirit. Funfunfun.
Wednesday we had revival group in the afternoon.They led us into an encounter with God. It was interesting what different people saw. We had dinner with our friends, Scott and his wife Yari, Ben and Sarah and Alan. Then that night was housegroup, we worshiped, prayed and heard from Michael, a guy who has just got back from a mission trip to Texas with Bill Johnson (our senior pastor).He told us about the trip and a little about Bill and we had a great time praying and hanging out together.
Today was really good, we had worship in school, then teachings, then we went to Shasta Lake City, where we are every thursday, just being there for the community. it rained and was cold but we stayed and hung out there with some local kids and a local man who was in the park.
Then we went back to school to get picked up and outside was a man called Kedric, there was a small crowd around him so we went over and listened to see what was happening. it was like being in a youtube clip. This guy who we found out later was only 19! was so in tune with the Holy Spirit that he was telling people their birthdays, mums name, sisters name etc. every time he was right, it was amazing, and he kept sayin 'its the same holy spirit, same God in all of us its just our mind that gets in the way, we just have to keep practising'. It was so good.
Its called words of knowledge, when God tells you something you wouldnt know, like someones birthday.
Its getting late now, and we're tired. so i'll say goodnight.
Thankyou for reading.

Back to school....
Hey everybody!
Hope this post finds everyone well and ready for the countdown to Christmas! It's not quite started here in Redding, but people in the UK will be waking up to December 1st.
So today was our first day back at school since the Thanksgiving break. We really enjoyed having a week off, relaxing with friends, spending time with my brother who had come over from Cheddar, and having our first ever Thanksgiving! It seemed to me to be a bit like Christmas-lite, where everything seemed like Christmas but there was no presents. It was great though, and having a day to be thankful is a brilliant idea. We should all be more thankful, it's definitely encouraged me to develop a more thankful attitude to life.
So yes, today we were back school. When we arrived the atmosphere was electric. Most people seemed to enjoy their holidays but everyone missed having school. We started with a worship session led by some of the second year students. They and the session was amazing. Really awesome. I'd happily buy a CD if they made one.
We then had a special guest speak to us. Tracy Evans is a lady with some amazing stories to tell.
She currently lives in Mozambique, Africa, where she has been for almost the last 10 years, but her life has taken her all over the place. She spoke to us about stepping out over the edge (not literally) but that as we do God will catch us and give us flight. Into her message she weaved many stories of her own life that to say has been adventurous would be an understatement! One story that stood out was how she literally was shipwrecked somewhere in the Pacific ocean, so she swam to shore and made the island she landed on her home for the next year. She didn't have any clothes, food, knowledge of the language or customs or anything. But she had God.
She finished by talking about the work she does in Mozambique, where Tracy and her team are responsible for about 800 orphans. She didn't ever think she would have this many or would be doing what she is doing but she is faithful to what God brings her way and looks after any that come to her for help. She has a clear revelation of our responsibility to the poor, and after outlining it to us we were almost convinced to join her and her work in Mozambique! that was until she started talking about the snakes that live there. So don't worry parents, we won't be leaving just yet for Mozambique!
We ended the day with our first session of a new module we had all selected. Izzy had her first session with the Kingdom Creativity track, which she will follow for the rest of the year. She's incredibly excited to see how God is going to use her through her artistic and creative ability. The first session was mainly outlining the rest of the course and hearing stories of previous years efforts, which all added to Izzy's excitement. I had my first session with Joaquin Evans, which is elaborately titled Cultivating the presence and Encounters. Joaquin oversees the Healing Rooms at the church and is an incredible guy. He shared many of his stories since he first came to the church 7 years ago, which started with a missions trip to South Africa. His experiences in South Africa were really powerful and have increased ever since. The session was brilliant, a great introduction and I'm really looking forward to the other 4 sessions I'll have with Joaquin. A great thing Joaquin reminded me was that it's all about relationship with God. Joaquin has seen many incredible things over the last 10 years, many healings for example through his work with the Healing Rooms, but it's all about spending time with God and developing the relationship.
Tomorrow is Sam's last full day with us : ( Sam has been our extra housemate for the last month or so as he's been doing some work experience with Bethel Media. So tomorrow night we're having a small party for him, as well as celebrating Emma's birthday. Tomorrow promises to be another great day!
Thanks for reading, we're really blessed by people reading our blog and keeping up with what we're doing. We still need money for our missions trip in March to Ecuador, so if you feel led to give or would like to contribute that would be awesome. You can give through:

Hi all,
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
So, Dan has left us, lil just dropped him at the airport and is now home and watching college football chatting to Adam. Dans flights delayed so he is waiting at Sacramento airport. Sorry Dan! :( We have loved having you stay with us, and hope you enjoyed your time here.
Thursday was Thanksgiving. We went to our home groups house and had wonderful food and company, and then the boys went outside and had a game of american football on the road, with us girls trying and failing to cheerlead. We went back in the house and the games started, which always end up being prophesying over each other. One game was putting someone in the middle blingfolded, and someone is picked to go and stand in front of them, the blindfolded person has to ask the Holy Spirit what he is saying to that person, and say what ever comes to mind, amazing results, everyone was spot on, and even could tell who it was who was standing infront of them!!
Yesterday it was 'Black Friday' which is a bit like boxing day sales. people camp overnight outside the bigger stores waiting for them to open at 3am for the 80% off sales, as they day goes on the % gets less.
Today we are catching up on homework and relaxing, its raining outside. :( Then tonight we are going to a friends house whose having a christmas party so we are looking forward to that.
Hope you all had a lovely day.

Thanksgiving week...
Hello to all our readers, whoever you are. We love you!
Today has been Monday November 22nd. I've spent it mostly on the road as my brother Dan is here to visit! Had to travel down to Sacramento to pick him up which was nice to be able to travel outside of Redding for a change. And I am now in love with cruise control! I've always been a bit sceptical up until now, but after travelling south on the incredibly straight I-5 it has won me over. It was a joy. Ben, our Aussie friend, accompanied me on the trip, many thanks for coming mate! It was Bonza!
So Dan is here until Saturday. He's been in Kansas since last week making a bit of a pilgrimage to watch his favourite American Football team play. His team won at the weekend which was good. We're excited he's here to see a bit of our American life and to finally have some home cooked food after almost a weeks worth of fast food! Don't worry Mum, we'll make sure he eats properly.
Izzy has had an eventful day today, she had a bunch of girlfriends round. They have been making Christmas cards all day (I was gutted I missed out!) and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. They've all made some amazing cards, maybe some of you will receive one this Christmas.
Due to it being Thanksgiving this Thursday, we have the week off of school. Last week was Relationships week. We both got a lot out of it, especially the sessions for married couples, we picked up some really great tips on things like communication, which will no doubt come in handy over the years. We're looking forward to implementing some of the new skills we've picked up. The Thanksgiving break also meant we finally got to go to Bethel Church for a Sunday morning service! After being here for almost 3 months we hadn't ever been to the proper church building for a Sunday morning due to the rotation we've been assigned to. So this past Sunday we walked up to the church and found some seats in the sanctuary part of the church building. It was great, properly felt like a proper church service, rather than the services filled with students every sunday morning. We sat next to and chatted to 'normal' Reddingites for the first time!
The service was brilliant, worship was amazing and Bill was on fire as usual. Listen to this weeks podcast of the sermon if you get chance. It was great to feel part of a regular congregation again.
We spent the rest of our Sunday mainly relaxing, but went to the cinema late last night to watch a film called 'the next three days' with Russell Crowe. It was a pretty decent watch, but really intense, especially late at night. We headed to Walmart after the film finished, both thinking we were being followed by the police and needed to be quick and get out asap! So if you do decide to watch the film, don't do it really late at night.
The new Jesus Culture album came out today, so we've been listening to that. It's another good'un from them. Get it if you can, think it comes out worldwide tomorrow (Tuesday). We're hoping to head to one of the mountians this week sometime, as it's been snowing recently and it's due to get heavier. Hopefully be able to do some sledging. I think they call it sledding over here though.
We had our first meeting with the group we're going to Ecuador in March with this week. They're all amazing, a couple of other Brits which is exciting. Really excited about what we'll be getting up to; prison ministry, street kids ministry, maternity hospital ministry for starters. It's going to be epic! As a team we're linking up with the Toledo's who are heroes of the justice world. Jennifer in particular has been likened to Heidi Baker and here's a link to a page where you can download her testimony and other talks she has done. It'll rock your world!

Anyway, Dan is trying to sleep now in the room next to me, he's still suffering a little from jetlag, bless him. So I better go.
Hope everyone is good. Do keep us updated with whats going on.
Lot's of love

Hello Lovely people!! what a week. there so much to tell you all. im just gunna babble and say it all, sorry if it doesnt make sense,
its relationship week, which has been incredible, the singles get workshops, and so do the marrieds, its been amazing. a couple who run 'love after marriage' workshops all over the country are taking it. weve been out everynight this week, haveing so much fun. housegroup last night was incredible, it was a pre thanksgiving and there was so much FOOD, and so much glory, there was a lotta 1sts that night. haha.
Today we went out in our groups to different communities. so our group went to Shasta Lake City. I(izzy, incase you hadnt guessed) was a little scared. but it ended up being the best experience. we just went around talking to people we met in the center by the skate park and chatted to the skaters and met the folk who live near, and pray for healing. AMAZING. some kids who thought they were so cool ended up getting healed of pain in a broken collar bone. my friend prophesied over these 2 teens, and one started crying because the words were so accurate. she said ' i see you writing' and the girl was like woahhhh thats my dream, i work in the school paper, and loads more stuff, just that half hour with those 2 girls has probably changed thier lives forever. their destinys were called out. my friend told them what God was saying to them, the teens were so excited and are gunna start coming to the church we are at. Then the group all chatted and there were so many stories just from 2 hours of chatting to people of how God touched their lives.
ahh i gotta do my home work, its due tomorrow.
Dan, lils bro, he is visiting for thanksgiving so will be in redding on monday!! til sat, hes been travelling around watching american football games.
i have so much more to tell just i gotta go do my homework.
oh, had a art evening tonight, the 2nd years put it on. was AMAZING. like heaven, people showing their art, healing art on walls (which people look at and God heals them just from looking at a painting, crazy huh! and writing stands and photography and some performances, a rapper, who was OUTSTANDING. a singer, break dancer. who says christianity was boring, its the most exciting thing EVER. haha. its makes my heart race with excitment what God is going to do in me. yeyyyyyyy
So everyone, be blessed and have a lovely day.
love izzy (a beloved daughter of the most high) YES! com'on! :)
