London 08 Recap

On November 17th, four of us headed off for London, England for a missions trip. With some money, a place to stay, and a glimpse of a schedule. The first few days we got over some jet lag and just checked out the city, went to the London Eye, sat in at the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, the London Bridge, and many others. I met with a couple of pastors and got to meet some awesome people. Albert Wood was our main contact and let me just say this is one awesome man of God. He had a schedule of ministry opportunities lined up for us and was a great help in getting around town.

The trip was very different than I had visioned in my little brain but it was great. We joined with churches and youth groups for prayer meetings and preached the Word. On Saturday the 22nd we held a silent siege at the Houses of Parliament and about 30 people showed up. I was so amazed though; a group of 18 or so came on a bus from almost 4 hours away, another women traveled 7 hours on a bus, and two other guys traveled 3 hours on a bus to come to the siege. It blew my mind that these believers had spent probably about $35-40 and much time on a bus to come and stand in the gap on behalf of the unborn. The dedication and heart of these believers burned in me and gave me such joy to see the sons and daughters arising.

After the Siege we went straight to a church called Joy House London and ministered at a youth conference thing. Afterwards only to find out it was being aired on Faith TV around the world lol. They fed us and sat down with us for some fellowship afterwards and it was a great time. The next morning we attended Hillsong London for Sunday service and then got on a bus to a town called Tamworth to join some believers in prayer. We arrived to the house only to see about 25 people and a TON of food, I thought that they might have called a town meeting or something it was awesome to see so many people gathered. The food was absolutely amazing if I might say so too. We had a great time eating and fellowshipping and then we had a powerful prayer meeting for 3 hours.

We headed back to London the next day and finished off the trip with some meetings, prayer walks, and fun team time(Albert included). The trip was awesome and the Lord did a lot in each of our lives as well as in the heart of the saints in England. Thank You to all who helped, donated, and prayed for us. Blessings
