Good News - November 2009

Dear Friends,

Let us update you about our lives and ministry

We do enjoy the kids and grandkids  alot, here in Genk, Belgium. We also got involved with a pentacostal church here in the city, called Elim. Believe it or not, but it is a process of getting used to Belgium. It's not Holland and absolutely not Canada. Go from one continent to another is challenging.

For Annick the whole move, spraining her ankle in the US and then back in Holland her knee cap and other situations have lead to a compromised immuun system. Time for lots of rest. She is coming up and getting stronger, but we appreciate your prayers for her.

We are in the process of setting up a society (for income tax purposes): Alive and Well Ministries. This is necessary for many reasons, such as paying taxes and such in Holland. Because most of our income is from Holland, but we live in Belgium, things are complicated. Please pray with us for this area of taxes and our income.

Skype Video Ministry with Prophetess Peggy Cole

With this group we had a last evening with Peggy Cole, a prophetess and revivalist from the US, and a wonderful friend of ours. The students were deeply touched and encouraged. 
This meeting was through Skype, which means that we see Peggy on the big screen and hear her over the speakers, while she gets to see and hear us on her monitor in the US. We had a camera in front of the church, facing the people. It was a unique event for the people. For Peggy and us it was the fourth time we did this.

Prophecy for Holland

Testimonies

Hamont, Belgium, September 20th 2009. A Thai woman of Christelijk Centrum Hamont, was powerfully touched by the Lord, last Sunday morning. After she was anointed with oil, she went back to her seat, and wanted to worship and thank Jesus for His touch. (She wasn't anointed for healing specifically, but everyone in the meeting was anointed). Her wrist was painful as always and she was due for surgery on Tuesday September 22nd. She sais: "Lord I just want to thank you and praise You, despite the pain". And she raised her arms to worship. As she did, all the pain left her. She excitedly started telling people after the meeting what the Lord had done!!

I myself, Paul, had pain in my hips since December 2008. The left was worse than the right. On July 29 the pain suddenly got way worse and I couldn't walk the stairs with that leg. I aggresively started to rebuke it and speak healing everytime I thought of it. Two days later it suddenly left. I should have been more aggresive from the very beginning.

One participant of the Equipping nights I mentioned, hearde my testimony and started to do the same for his back. For over a year he had back pain from a hernia. The last three months he was in constant pain. He had no prayers, but started to speak to his hip as well and commanded it to heal. A week later he came and told me that that day was his first day after three months that he had no pain. Now, a few months later, he is still fine.
