Natick Outreach

Just got back from helping out at a healing conference at John Thomas's church, The Metrowest Bridge in Natick, Massachusetts. We got there friday afternoon to help set-up for that night for a healing service. Doug (I can't remember his last name) came down from Ontario to help lead the services for the weekend.

So that night there were quite a few people there and it went pretty good, there were people healed, so I guess it was a success! A few people got healed from deafness, a few people got their backs healed, and there were a few more that escape me currently...

That ended up being a late night and Nathan, Anthony and I were privilaged to get a host home with a friend I met, Tim, when we went to the Vineyard youth retreat weekend last semester. It was a real blessing, we didn't get to bed till 1 am and we had to get up at 6, but it was better than sleeping at the church where we'd have to share a single shower for everyone. Time even made us pancakes so that was pretty much amazing!

Saturday consisted of teaching in the morning and in the afternoon we went out to the mall or where ever to see if we could pray for people. Us interns split up and teamed with people from the church so it was definitely a great growing time for many of the people there as they had never done anything like that. Really stretched alot of people, it was good to be able to come alongside them to do this. It ws good although I'm not used to having to go up to people and ask them. I much prefer setting up a table to interpret dreams, it's easier to talk to people when they want to approach you or when they are interested in what you have to say.

It was an interesting trip, definitely not without it's struggles, but it all worked out and was amazing. It was a real learning trip, everybody that went seemed to have such a varied experience and opinion of how it was for them, and what everyone learned was just as varied.

This however was only half our team as the other half went to Connecticut to a university there to do dreams and stuff at their big spring festival, I'll try to add a link to a blog from someone who was there when they get one up.

Sorry I didn't have many pictures this time, but come on, I've been good to you in the past, let it go!
