First, I would like mention, if you want your name removed from this update list oryou have friends or relatives you want added to this update list, please just sendme an email so I can get it updated. I am working with a shorter list these days because I have not heard from somepeople for years and it appears they have moved on. Also, please pay close attention to the prayer requests at the bottom of thisupdate, as this is one of the main reasons I take time to let everyone knowwhat is happening. As most of you know, I am traveling in Southern Mexico right now with Recie Saundersof Itinerant Ministry Team (www.itinerantministryteam.com) preparing for a week of ministry inTabasco. The meetings start Monday night in Jobal, Tabasco first. We have traveled the last 3 days several hundred miles by car visiting several ruinsand villages in the interior of Chiapas and along the Guatemala border. We briefly crossed into Guatemala for a few minutes. The Lord has really been in this part of the trip, and we really feel that God is goingto do much healing of the land and hearts. I believe many generational issues will be broken, many lives touched and healed. I really covet your prayers on this trip, we need a solid covering so there will bereal liberty and freedom in the meetings. There has been much groundwork andmuch preparation for these meetings and we firmly believe that many peoplewill never be the same after this week. I personally feel that this set of meetings will be some of the most significant meetingsthese towns have ever had. I believe we are seeing a major turning point and shift inthis ministry, the authority of the church in Tabasco and freedom in the churches herein Southern Mexico as a result of these meetings. A lot of exciting things are happening in the ministry that we will share in the comingmonths. Real and long term changes are taking place that will move us more intospreading revival not only in Mexico but in America and other parts of the world. I will continue to update as often as possible to keep you on top of what is happening.Please take a few minutes to lift these requests up to the Lord in prayer.....
Blessings and Increase.....

* Nightly meetings, Sep 1, 2 and 3 Jobal, Tabasco.....Sep 4 and 5 Cuyo de Guadelupe, Tabasco and Sep 6 San Geronimo, Tabasco.
* My pastors in Texas....David and Gayle Dyke, (I love you guys!!!) Gayle had a fall that involved a broken hip, pray for a quick, total recovery. This happened just before a very important conference at the church involving leadership from Bethel Church in Redding, California that will be taking place this same week we are in Mexico. We look at it as nothing more than a direct attack from the enemy, but he will not slow down revival, his plan actually backfired and it's fanning the flame even more!!! www.opendoorcity.org
* My good friend Steve Lincoln who has ministered with me in Mexico www.eagleswingsministries.co.uk Steve has gone through a long season of serious sickness and attacks and we need to see complete deliverance for him and his wife Heather. You can feel free to check out his website, he has much in the line of prophetic ministry, he has a School of the Spirit, School of Ministry, Music, etc. Many resources....
Feel free to forward this update to anyone you think will pray or benefit from it.

Greetings!
We have a lot of great things to report about the trip so far. It has been a greatblessing to many people. The first night, the Lord moved and some received, but you could tell muchgroundwork was being laid for the Tuesday night service. At the beginning of the service, Recie called Robert forward and honoredhim before the people. He explained that Robert was the spiritual leader region and that he was honoring him with protocol, basically submitting to his leadership and getting permission directly from Robert, as the spiritualleader, to minister to the people. He presented him with a blanket and ahandmade necklace that had a prophetic meaning to it. It was a very strong, anointed and prophetic moment and very honoring. Tuesday night, Recie ministered on the difference between witchcraft, cardreaders, etc, and true prophets and men of God. The anointing waspresent from early on in the service and became heavy during the time ofministry. Recie asked for the people who had been to a witch, card reader, etc. or had afamily member that had visited one, every one that wanted to renounce itand wanted freedom to come forward. Around three-quarters of the people came forward. The anointing was very heavy and many were deeply ministered to. Ministry this week has also involved "house calls". We've visited 3 homes so farand ministered to people with various issues. This morning we were in a home and a lady was filled with the Holy Spirit. Thank you for your prayers. Again, I feel that in a couple of the places we areministering, it is the most important events these churches have had up to thispoint.

Thank you for your prayers, they are greatly appreciated! Last night was the final meeting at Jobal, Tabasco and we are moving downthe Usumacinta River about 30 miles to Cuyo de Guadelupe, also in the Stateof Tabasco. Last night before service, some of the leadership had gathered to talk about theservice and what the Lord was showing us about the meeting. Many strong propheticwords were given and the anointing was very strong. At one point, Recie began to pray for Robert, and as he was about to lay hands onhim, oil began to come from his hands. They became slick and oily right in frontof us. As you can imagine, the presence of God was very strong and several ofus could hardly stand. During worship, almost all present were really deeply engaged in worship andand there was a strong corporate anointing. There was not a message, Recie went straight into ministry. He had every personthat was sick to raise their hand, then the remaining people came forward. We prayed over the people that were not sick, then had the sick people comeforward and the others pray for them. Recie was ministering to two men called to be pastors as the people werepraying one for another. We did not lay hands on those sick people. Later, near the end of the service, Recie asked if any had not been healedso we could pray for them and not a single person came forward.We asked several times and asked if they had all been healed. Everyonekept saying "amen" and no one had any sickness left! Praise God! The Lord is really moving and commisioning these people to carry on the callof God on their lives. I believe that these 3 meetings in Jobal carried much spiritual weight and wasthe most significant services they have ever experienced.Thanks again for your prayers,
Blessings,

Prayer Requests.......
* Open and receptive hearts in Cuyo de Guadelupe, freedom and a moreestablished order within the church body.
* We're almost finished gathering the final paperwork on church order,laws of the church, mission statements for the Mexican Church, etc. Justone more day of work...... Pray for strength, wisdom and grace to finish the job!!THANK YOU, Mom, Sylvia Garza and Steve Linclon for your help, you guys area huge blessing!!! All of this is to be turned in with our church papers for National approval inMexico City.
* TRUCK!!! The main truck we use to transport people here is in the shop needing major work......to be honest, it needs a rebuilt engine. We have put more than 120,000 miles on it since we brought it down and it has more thanoutlived most trucks we have used here. A normal lifespan is only 2-3 yearsbecause they are constantly taking such abuse on these roads. We havebeen praying for another full-sized truck and a van to haul people. I have met with mechanics and talked with several missionaries about trucksover the last couple of years and all agree it is not wise at all and a waste ofprovision to buy new or almost new trucks. The wear a brand new truck boughthere at 50,000 miles is very similar to the wear a truck in the USA has at140,000-150,000 miles. Literally 25% of our driving can be off road here.
