Introducing Converge International...

It has been an exciting season to finally submit the Converge International papers for incorporation and registration.  Some of you have wondered what exactly Converge is... Well someone give us a drumroll please... 


Converge is a not for profit ministry organization that networks people that are hearing the same heartbeat of heaven across streams, affiliations and organizations and links them with the front lines of God's outpouring in the darkest and hardest places we can find.  Converge partners with like-minded and like-hearted quality indigenous organizations to stand with them to release revival movements of His love in the nations.


We are about raising up and releasing an upside down company who live from heaven to earth and bring the Kingdom where ever they go.


We are about raising awareness through the creative arts and calling the Church to have eyes to see with the eyes of Jesus.  Then out of the place encountering the One Who is Love to become the incarnation of His answer in the earth.


We are about practical acts of love that reach the unreached and supernatural displays of heaven's reality that bring revival to regions and transformation to nations.


Right now Converge is exploring several avenues of involvement internationally.  Its primary focus at present is the people of Sudan through its partnership with Iris Ministries Sudan.  It is also looking into the issues relating to children accused of witch craft in DR Congo.

Painting Under an Open Heaven

So Papa told me He was putting me on stage this year and I would learn to paint.  Hmmmm... I did not think He meant both at the same time though.  I bought a bunch of art supplies in S Africa earlier this year but have not had the time to explore them.  Sooooo heaven thought maybe they'd help me out.  I got picked up in Redding and told oh by the way, you're painting on stage in worship.  Cool the 2nd time I have ever held a paintbrush in my hand... let's see what happens in front of like an international internet tv audience.  God, what are You getting me into?

Never half way like usual, sink or swim as always there I go... and it felt like I had done it a million times before... even cooler Papa let it be a visual to the sermon to come and a gift to the one who asked Him for it whom He led me to and told me to give it to.  I found out 2 days later. Yay God.  And here is the painting along with its new owner:

UK: The King in IN the Land


I am so blessed.  I got to spend five fabulous days with dear friends and new family in the UK.  We got to see God show up and many people encounter deeper levels of His healing and refreshing Presence.

I am writing these fond memories from Sudan on waning battery power so the detailed posts will hmmm have to wait.  But truly the KING is IN the land.  More to come on that perhaps another day when I have power.

I really wanted to just show you this amazing RED door I so wanted to take home with me.  I love England.  To all my Southampton family- I LOVE you and can't wait to return again.  You are the best!
