Doctor Has No Reason to Doubt

The man who was healed of stuttering and shaking brought in the letter from his doctor today stating his complete healing! He said he would love for us to post on Facebook the picture of him with the letter as well as to hang it up in the Center because he wants God to get all the glory for his healing! The last line of the letter says “Galen credits this healing to intervention from God – I have no reason to doubt that this is the case!” Awesome!

Incredible God

A man stopped in the Free Prayer Center.  He severely stuttered and his arms and hands greatly shook from his elbows all the way down to his fingertips continuously. God miraculously healed him! When he left he spoke perfectly and his body was at complete rest!! Holy Spirit you are amazing! John 5:15 says, “the man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who made him well!” I love seeing the Bible come alive firsthand!! The man returned three days later after having just been to a doctor appointment.  He didn’t want to tell her–he wanted her to see it for herself. “She asked me how I was doing and as I sat there calmly without shaking and telling her without stuttering she put both hands over her mouth and just stared at me!” Then she said to him, “What happened to you? You were so bad when you left here on Friday!”  He said, “Jesus healed me!” She said, “I know you experienced a miracle because we had no idea how to treat you!”  We serve a great great God! Thank YOU Jesus!

International Ministry

The ministry has now gone international! We had a two hour Skype ministry session with someone in Romania the other morning! God is so amazing that we can minister from our home in Iowa to the other side of the world! Thank you Lord for new open doors and new countries!

Update for the past month

We were out of town for 8 days at the end of April visiting family in the Pacific Northwest, then we preached at the Methodist churches in two nearby towns on May 8 and at the Vineyard church in Mason City, Iowa yesterday. We will preach at another one on July 17th. We received wonderful responses from the Methodist churches and great encouragement. The MC Vineyard service flowed with the Holy Spirit from the moment it began to the moment it ended, a great blessing! We had planned to set up Free Prayer outside in Mason City Saturday but the weather report got worse and worse as the day approached and it turned out to be in the low 40s with winds of 17-20 mph so we postponed until a nice JUNE day!

Another $350!

We just received $350 toward the Free Prayer Center goal! Now we only need $572 for the building to be fully funded! TY, Lord! The Center is a bigger blessing than we even anticipated. We had about 75 people come by during our Open House on February 28th and we received many positive comments from them and from others who have stopped just passing by.  Plus we have prayed for numerous people since we officially opened on February 11th. (Check out our BWB Facebook page for details or sign up for our newsletter!)  A youth group came in on a Wednesday night and all the kids received a word from the Lord. It was life-changing for them–they now KNOW God is REAL and He loves them! He is a good, good Father!

Thank You, Lord, for Our First “Customer”

We had our first person stop for prayer! The Lord set a woman free of things that had been tormenting her for the past 50 years!!! God is SO gracious in how much He loves us!! We will be putting pictures on our photo page of the finished building tomorrow. Just a couple of carpets to add down the road and it will be totally done! Thank you again to all who gave and to all who prayed!

New Free Prayer Center Open!

Well, our new Free Prayer Center is open! Thankfully, it was very clean when we took possession so we only have to paint! And our Open sign is on while we’re working! Bring in the people you are drawing, Lord! Today no work because we are in the middle of a blizzard but tomorrow we’ll be at the center again!IMG_1419 IMG_1536

Signed Lease in Hand!

Yes, we have a signed lease in hand!IMG_1491 Effective February 1st we will be setting up Free Prayer at 606 Flindt Dr in Storm Lake! Saturday we are going in to paint and set up our table and chairs and coffee pot so we’ll be all ready to go on Monday. TY, Lord! We feel so good about being “out on the roadside” again! We are still raising the last $700 of the money needed to reach our goal but we know God is bringing it! Thank you again to all who gave and to all who prayed for this vision to become a reality! God is awesome!
