Fresh Encounter, New Assignments

Hi! We are so excited! Thank you family, friends, and partners for standing with us at this time. The service last Sunday at GFC in Titusville proved an awesome experience in His presence. In the atmosphere of praise and worship and sharing from the Word of God, many came forward for ministry and received prophetic words from the Lord; and all experienced a fresh touch from God. I thank God for His strong presence with us! 

PENTECOST

This year, the time between Passover (Easter) and Pentecost took place April 25th to June 8th. And, the day we Christians celebrate the Holy Spirit coming at Pentecost is June 12th. During this time, the disciples of Christ were all together in one place, when the Holy Spirit came down from Heaven and filled them with fresh power and divine enablement. I believe God wants us to receive new strength and power and watch for new things to birth at this time. 

In Isaiah 6:8 it says, "Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, `Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?` And I said, `Here am I. Send me!`" This is a time of fresh encounter with God and new assignments. Let`s ask God to open our spiritual eyes and ears and walk with renewed power in to the destiny God has for us. PTL!

STEP TO MS

Wow! Things are happening so fast! We will be heading out to MS on June 20th and plan to arrive in MS on June 22nd.  Jake begins his Ballet Magnificat Summer Intensive Camp on the 26th.  Upon arriving in MS, we will be looking for housing (while staying with friends).  We continue to ask the Lord as to His desire for us in MS.  While we have been aggressively searching for employment, so far we have not been successful.  Would you please pray with us for the Kingdom of God to be established in the way of provision for us as we go to MS?  Our desire is to make a base where we can begin again to reach out to the poor and to the children of Asia. Yes, we are still need ongoing monthly mission support to function in MS, take short-term trips, and to prepare for our eventual return to Japan and Asia. Already, we have been asked to take a research trip to Cambodia in the late summer.  We can not carry out the mission without your help.  

We also will be looking for schools again for the kids.  We have had a successful year here in Titusville, PA.  We so appreciate everyone who has helped us make the transition back to the USA. Looking back, we see how God has taken care of us every step of the way!  He is a strong, faithful, mighty God!!!!  Thank you to everyone and THANK YOU to Jesus!!! We have seen and tasted of the goodness of the LORD!

Thanks for standing with us through this transition to MS. If you are not already a partner, would you prayerfully consider becoming one with us. Please feel free to email concerning specific areas of involvement and/or send your financial gifts to the following:

Antioch International Ministries
246 Cowden Road
New Wilmington, PA 16142

Remember, we receive 100% of all gifts given. All gifts are tax-deductible. The greatest need we have at this time is money to cover moving and set up costs to MS. Thank you for your faithful giving.

Respectfully Yours,
Mark Gulland
