 Elkhart, Indiana

I arrived in Indiana on the 18th June and picked by Pastor Gary Yordy. The receiption was wonderful. In evening the Leadership development conference started with registration. I met with many leaders from different ministries and churches. I was happy to see many of them willing and yet strugglling on how to make a shift from the present traditional approach to leadership development and to conneXions model. ConneXions Model is the model that will raise healthy leaders to match the explosive of growth of the church in Africa. This is the model I have chosen. More on this see www.healthyleaders.org.

Millersville, PA

I arrived in PA on 1st July and met by Pastor Duane Metzler who is resident pastor of University Christian Fellowship(UCF) at Millersville University. This is a fellow with more than 120 students and it is the largest campus ministry.

I have been involve in leading Bible Study, Sharing at the UCF retreat and witnessed God move on the heart of the students in a great. On Saturday night we experience the presence of God during worship and several students received deliverance from different addiction.

I have meeting with Pastor mainly from the Mennonite Church and having felloship with them and sharing with them my perspective on Leadership development and change in the church. The response of these person to my sharing was positve and amazing. I loved talking to Bishop Richard, Pastor Kieth Blank. Pastor Robert and Pastor Moore. Blessing to this men.

 My time with pastor Duane has been awesome, every time God speaking to us in different ways and bonding us. I love Pastor Duane and his wife Kris for their commitment to build the faith of th students at Millersville University.

I want to continue helping Pastor Duane and Kris in any way I can in prayer and teaching everytime I come. They have lovely daughter, Cortney and Ashley.

My ministry at the University Christian Fellowship has been a blessing to many. Through my ministry Tabitha made a decision for Christ. Please pray for Tabitha to deal with issues of her life. Pray of her health also. She needs healing from some infections.

 We had a students' Retreat and at the retreat a I spoke about the Centrality of Christ in our Christian lives and I focussed more on Fellowship with Christian being the source our very lives, ability to serve, power to live for him and over life's situation, the intentionality of such inner or inward fellowship with God the father, son and the Holy Spirit.

Sunday the 16th I spoke at a Mennonite church, and I pray for another woman who was under the oppression of demonic powers. I laid my hands on her and started praying and said "in the name of Jesus you demonic spirit I command you" and before I finished the statement, the women yelled at me and said "take off you hands on me and she started running away but other took hold her and went on praying and the women fell down, and she started foaming from her mouth. She came and up and I asked to say that Jesus Christ is lord and she said she can not say because when says that something chokes. So I prayed again and asked to pray a prayer after me, 'Lord Jesus Christ, I surrender my life to you, I ask you to be lord over my life, I proclaim king and lord over my life. I am now yours, dwell in me. In Jesus's name." then I told to say, Jesus is my lord" She said and she like she just brightened up and some life came into her. I was excited to see God set this woman friend from demonic oppression. Praise God for his work.

I prayed for many people with different problems, backache, people with unforgiveness and bitterness and they experienced freedom. Praise God!. I thank God that he can use in such incredible way.

 The church at the end of the service they blessed me $75 and  I thank for for his provision. He is Jevohah Jireh-the Lord who provides.

 I have different experience of providence in my life. pastor Duane took to work with him and made some $50 and second time I made $60 and I send this to my family at home. When there was not opportunity to preach and minister in some way, God provided some work for me get in come from my family. I thank for all these.

Today I am moving to York to stay with kenya couple for a couple of weeks as I wait on what God has in store for me. Just relaying on him day by day. He is like, James just live depending and relying on me.

 I have sometimes felt like, James did you come to America to work or minister to people. But the bible is also very clear that I have to work to provide for my family

Then it is like, James you are supposed to raise money to build your training Center in Kenya, when will this happen and you seem to be going nowhere.

 But God has given me assurance that at his own time he meet all the needs for my ministry and family. Amen Lord!
