Yesterday's encounters were awesome. The music was so hot. Floyd got loose on the keyboard in the 2nd. He is such a humble young man, and a pleasure to work with. He turned down 2 weekends with JMoss so he wouldn't miss on Sunday (He like's the vibe at SC). And Brent on the drums! Don't get me started.
Don't forget about Marie and the singers; but they are "the stream"; so consistent; they "bring it" every time. The atmosphere the posse creates is making it so easy for me to minister and flow in the anointing.
A shout out to all of our awesome helps team, who's behind the scene's contributions, set the foundation for a successful encounter.
Believe God with me for more and more harvest.
I have a neat testimony from the young lady I brought to 2nd encounter...she is the one who went up and recieved salvation. She is staying at the same half-way house as another one of my ladies and I was told that she went back and talked for hours about 'her' church and 'her' band and 'her' pastor and on and on and on! She called everyone she could think of to tell them about how she got born-again and how awesome 'her' church was! She is already nearly done with the Bronze level (I just got it for her yesterday) and I am about to go pick her up for her 1st Winning Group meeting. So I just wanted to let you know Pastor, that what you are trying to accomplish is most definitley being accomplished...and it is an honor to be a part of it!

hey PA! summit rocks!!! I can't imagine being anywhere else. what I miss most is the posse bringin the noise every week and the Word you put down. but I listen on the church website so I don't miss too much. oh I have a praise report!! I found a new church home here at Purdue. I love it! Just over the last few weeks God has shown Himself to me so much and it makes me feel comfortable and at peace knowing He is here with me when I need Him most. more good news...I'm coming home this weekend!!! I wont be at church this Sunday tho but if ignite is meeting then I'll definately be there!!

You are right PA, the encounter was spirit filled and always encouraging. Its really amazing what is happening in the woman's jail ministry. Your leaders are reaching hurting souls.

Praise God! The encounters were definitely a blast for the Posse! We are thankful for the awesome privilege to do what we do. " This is what we do! It would be ludicrous to think that we are new to dis. We do dis!"
AND, I absolutely love "The Stream" we are gonna have to do somethin whit that. Maybe we'll be "The Stream" instead of "The Posse":-)Hmmmm?
