Preaching the good news and healing the sick
in New Zealand, Nepal and the world
February 2011 News
I am delighted not only to have it in hand, but also with the very professional job the printers have done. Thank you, Andrew of KB Print!
Now of course, we must pray that the book finds its way into the bookshops, and readers hands and hearts. Please pray that it achieves all that the Lord desires of it.
I truly believe that it is a message in season, and will revolutionise our understanding of the authority the Lord has given us, and how it works. Order your copy online. It should be in the bookshops very soon. Alternatively, order a copy by replying to this email, and we will send you one for a Prayer Partners special 33% discount of NZ$20 (+ postage of $5 within NZ; $10 to Australia; $15 elsewhere).
Nepal news
Another wonderful team head off to Nepal in just two weeks time. Please pray for us, and please continue to pray for us after we return! We are very conscious of your wonderful prayer support, but our teams are at the ‘front line’, and need all the support they can get.
We will be returning to Nepal at the end of October for our next trip, God willing. I believe that it will be with a larger team and a more ambitious programme. We will plan the details when I go to Nepal this time, but if you have ever considered coming, please do pray about coming with us! We don’t know how much longer we will be able to continue this ministry, and we must grab the opportunity while the doors are open.
The church is growing rapidly, and there is a noticeable shift in the spiritual atmosphere! We heard recently that many prayer teams have been there, even to the top of Everest, and we believe we are riding on the spiritual wave they have created. It’s an exciting place to be right now. (Also check our our Portrait Gallery - Nepalis are beautiful!)

‘Authority’ is now here and looks wonderful!
Other ministry
A lady came to us recently with a painful leg, after her nerve had been damaged following a knee operation. Her foot tingled all the time and felt it was on fire. She was using a crutch. Bron & I were in rather a hurry to leave, so I bent down quickly and laid my hands on her foot. After a few seconds I asked what was happening. ‘The tingling has gone,’ she said. ‘Then the Lord has begun to heal you, and he is faithful to complete it,’ I replied, adding that we were a bit pressed for time to wait until it was all done. She hobbled off, but I had an email the next morning from the friend who brought her, to say by the morning she was totally healed, and had thrown away her crutch! Praise the Lord!
Bron & I have taken the chance to rest over the Christmas break, and are now ready to go again! We kept busy moving a double garage across our property, which has transformed the look of our home. We managed to get a day sailing on Spirit of New Zealand, a three-masted, 250 tonne barquentine, which I was able to helm for much of the trip.
I will be doing more teaching at local Bible Colleges this year, and publishing more books. I have several more in my head that I long to write. Perhaps this is another change of life coming up! The Christian life is never dull!
