On the Road Again...

Pastor Ron and I will be leaving for Nigeria later today. We have GREAT anticipation of what God will do! I will update this post whenever I can with reports from the field. There will be updates on the http://heartcryinternational website in The Father's Heart blog as well. Please pray for us!

So why do we do it?

Why would anyone want to leave Mt.Pleasant, Michigan when God is moving so powerfully in and through the church? What compels Pastor Ron and I to reach beyond to other cities and nations? I know it must be perplexing to some. We are SO blessed here and God is doing amazing things - things we've prayed to see for so many years.

The answer is simple: We MUST. There is a stirring in our spirits and a Word from God ringing in our ears. Our eyes are wide open and we see the ripened harvest field. We are finally grasping the truths of God's Word that alluded us before. We are breaking out of the confines of religion and experiencing LIFE - the life Christ died to give us. We MUST obey His lead. We hear the cry of our Father's heart for a lost world. We hear the cry of the lost for help.

How can we leave? Because we know how little WE are needed in this move of God. Surely we have a role to play; a gift to share; a grace to lead - but this move of God is springing up out of God's Church, His people. YOU are the carriers of His glory to the homes, workplaces, and communities you live in! YOU are those who carry the authority, annointing, and zeal to change Michigan forever!

Next Sunday, Pastor Ron and I will be preaching in churches in Nigeria...but God will come to Michigan with revelation, impartation, and salvation once again. Bodies will be healed, wounded hearts made whole, and souls will be saved. Isn't God AMAZING???

Please write me reports of what God is doing here at home in the comment portion below. I know we will all experience God's goodness and look forward to celebrating together!

With Joy,
Pastor Carla
