As we share the same intense love for God and Jesus Christ seeking His face more and more, we often fast and pray to be in His presence and to hear His voice. We share the gospel with those around us and the Holy Spirit has moved a couple of people into accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. On our first visit to Grace we received a memory stick with songs and two amazing studies – Faith Factor and Sex in the suburbs - as welcome gift. These studies are on my MP3 so I can listen to them as often as possible. The Faith Factor has been an inspiration for us every time we decide “to go Daniel 10” as we call it. Meaning, we fast and pray for 21 day, just like Daniel did, with specific needs in our hearts. Daniel 10:12 is the result of this. Well, right now, we are “going Daniel 10”; we started on Sept 1st. For the first time, I was able to attend to the Core meeting on Sept 7th, and was not surprised to see that all you had exposed as proposals for Grace for the coming months are aligned with our prayers!!!! Glory to the Lord most High!! Our “Daniel 10” has been to ask God to bring people who are in deep need and thirst for Jesus, into our groups; in Toronto , and in Mississauga . According to Pr. Armando the group on Wednesdays in Mississauga has never had so many people attending before! Here in Toronto I had to open one more day in the week (I have another Bible study on Saturdays too) to start a Bible study at home with a lady who is thirsty of Jesus. Likewise, Juliane is praying with another person who we believe will join on the Tuesday group. Thanks, praise and all the glory to the Lord! Our 3 weeks fasting will be over on the 21st, and it would be nice to hear how the other groups at Grace are growing. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to all Pastors and Leaders at Grace Community Church for encouraging and supporting us in doing the mission Jesus has called us to do! May His abundant love, grace and blessings be upon all of us!
