Day one Aug 10th, 2000

Wed Night the group was prayed for at Youth church. It was very cool.

I got to the church at 8 this morning to find Branden and Clint already waiting for me. The rest of the team was arriving as I and the leaders made many preparations. What a team! They are all on time and ready to go. The bus arrives with Gery and Carmen from Storm Ministries. We have a quick meeting and we are ready to go. Josh Loveall gets his team assembled and they pack the bus. The entire group of parents, pastor Doug and Lois and teenagers lays hands on the bus and asks God for his protection and anointing. Everyone is excited to go, but sad to leave. Hugs and kisses and we are off.

We drive for about an hour and make a stop at Costco- while we are stopped a bunch of us play hacky sack in the parking lot. Then we are off on our way. We stop at a truck stop and put up or FREE PRAYER sign. It is cool to hear the comments from people as we ask them if they want to be prayed for. Not takers…. Then at the next rest stop about two hours later we pray for three people. That is cool. Tracey, Charles and a lady who said she needed prayer.

The kids on the bus beg me to play some worship and the entire bus begins to worship God with all their heart! It is awesome! For an hour we sing and worship the Lord. The kids don't want to stop but we finally do- Chris Bruner stands on a picnic table and preaches the WORD! This is awesome!

We finally make it to Rogue River Assembly of God and eat dinner. Tonight we met in the sanctuary and began to worship God. The Holy Spirit falls on our gathering and God ministers to Clint Mullins. Heidi has a word from God, so does Jewel, it is awesome. He is asking us not to be selfish, to give all to Him. I have a word for Clint he is changed! Heidi D. is also prayed for as well as Sarah Bruner and Josiah Carisino. This is an intense time of worship and prayer. After that we sit at the altar and begin to laugh, we were being so silly. It is late, and we need to sleep. We are up at 5:00 tomorrow morning. We have a long day ahead of us.
