August 7-9th Watchman's Call Board Meeting and Community Gathering
Teri serves on the board for Watchman's Call (the ministry of Dawn and Bob Sweigart), and this was the weekend for their annual board meeting. The Lord was so faithful to bring clear definition and strategy to their ministry works in Pennsylvania, Texas, and Romania. We are very excited about the coming year for Watchman's Call...it is going to be the best one yet!
Teri was also given the honor of ministering to their local community gathering on Friday night. It is always such a gift to join with this radical, abandoned group of believers. The Lord was certainly among us as we considered what it means to "Give Birth to Your Deliverance."
July 24th - 27th Lamb's Chapel - Long Island, New York
Teri and Amelia had the delight of spending several days with friends in West Hampton. We had a great time connecting and enjoying the beauty of their new home (Tom, you are an incredible craftsman). Amelia became their self declared fourth child, and was sad to return to her reality in North Carolina (oh, the hardships of a 3 year old). Thank you, Lettieri's for an amazing time...we love you!
On Sunday, Teri was privileged to minister at Lamb's Chapel in Center Moriches. Mike and Kim Jankowski (the pastors) have become personal friends, so it was a joy to have this opportunity to labor together. The Lord came in a very powerful and personal way, confirming His intention for our time together. Pastor Mike was away in the Ukraine leading a team on a missions building trip, so it was a fun girls weekend!
July 18th - Awakened Worship Encounter with Paulette Wooten
A couple of times a year, Awakened (the women's ministry at The Refuge) hosts an event called "Worship Encounter". On July 18th, we had the privilege of featuring the ministry of Paulette Wooten. Teri opened the night with a brief teaching on "Healing through Sound," challenging the ladies to create an atmosphere for healing and restoration. Paulette then led us on a wonderful journey, which took us to amazing, unexpected places in Him. There was such freedom in the place...I don't think any of us will ever forget what the Lord accomplished in our hearts. Thanks to you, Paulette, for becoming so incredibly skilled at your craft, yet so abandoned in your pursuit. We will never be the same!
