One Year Review – Encounter Church

We are officially 1 year old and we are located right in the heart of the city of Edinburgh. News is spreading about our church and God’s Presence is very powerful. We opened in prayer on Sunday morning and I started singing with no instruments. The people were hungry and ready. 30 minutes later we were overwhelmed by the power and presence of God. Hungry people are coming with hungry hearts. A great recipe for God to show up! We are slowly outgrowing our hotel space. Please pray that God will open a new door.

65 Souls Saved

Each Saturday we are out on Hunters Square Royal Mile from 2-4 pm. We are involved in worship, preaching and one on one witnessing. To date, we have seen over 65 individuals ask Jesus to be the Lord of their life. Thank you friends for making this happen. We oversee and Pastor the Ministry of Street Church in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Healing Rooms Morningside

Joanie and the boys have been involved in a bi-monthly Healing Room ministry in an area of Edinburgh called Morningside. Caleb and Joanie lead the worship and people are being prayed for as they come in right off the streets. Today, Luke, Caleb and Joanie were all involved in worship.

10 Months Ladies Prayer

For 10 months the ladies of our church meet each week and pray for revival. The ladies have been meeting in our house and believe God needs a church, a people. a location. We are praying as a church “Lord, here am I, use me.”

A Huge Opportunity

There is an opportunity that we are praying about involving the renovation of an old historic building right on the Royal Mile. Pray about this please. The project would be a huge one that would bring much Glory to Jesus. However, we are asking God for real confirmation about this. Feel free to contact us if God should speak to you concerning this.
