Chekubul Crusade Update November 7, 2006

Crusade update Tuesday November 6, 2007 Greetings!   For those who this is your first update, I am adding the first couple of emails at the bottom of this letter.  Thank you so much for your prayers for this trip.  It has been a huge blessing.      I did not realize over the years that this area was really at the "ends of the earth"!  Once you get to Chekubul where we are doing this crusade, there is nothing beyond it but serious swamp and virgin jungle.  Hardly anything has changed since we first got here in 1977, with the exception of more people.  It is a really rough place.  Many people who have committed crimes and murders have come to these swamps and jungle to hide from getting arrested.   Many of these towns are nothing more than places where people bult houses because it was the only high ground!   The town where we are was the first place we preached in Mexico.  The center of where the ministry started.      Last night, I counted 12 pastors of churches present at the meeting that had not been started by Dad.  They were from Assemblies of God, Church of God, Independant churches and others.  Many pastors from our churches came and brought many from their congergations.  At the meeting itself, cars, trucks and busses lined the entire block.  Believe it or not, Chekubul has a big taxi service now!  Around 10 of those 3 passenger motorcycle taxies were carrying people back and forth to and from the meeting.      Vendors have seen an opertunity also, around 5 mobile food carts have popped up at the edges of the city park selling food.  It's ok though, I look at it as more people to preach to!      The power of God fell again last night, I won't try to guess how many people came last night, but it was a lot more than the first night.      I tell you, God is doing something new.  He is pouring out His spirit on all flesh, but more than anything He is getting people ready for the Harvest!  He is doing a QUICK work.      I don't know how many people came for prayer or salvation, but it was a lot.  Me and Robert have been spliting into teams to pray for the people because there are so many.  Prophetic words have been abundant.    It is interesting to note that over 50% of the people are indian.  Either Mayan or Chol.  Many are much more free in their worship.      Near the end of the service, a prophetic word was spoken that a person with serious pain in his head/neck area needed to come forward for prayer.    I stuck with it, no one came for a minute or two.  Finally, this little old man, very short Mayan indian came dancing up, crying and hollering that he had been healed in his seat!  His head, neck and upper arm had been in such pain he was not able to lift his arms, but he was dancing all over the front waving his arms over his head and praising God!  Praise God!     I am sending a couple of pics from the first meeting, only got a couple from last night because of operator error...... The guy I had taking pictures only got a couple.    It looks like when we move to the next location we may have enough light to video some of the meeting.  That will be exciting.    Please keep praying for the meetings, even though we have seen amazing things, there are a lot of hard hearts.  Spirits of religion, witchcraft and a few others are really trying to keep people bound, but our God is greater!  I want to see EVERYONE set free, not just half the people that show up!   Jump in the River!   -Scott
