I am so sorry that I haven't been able to blog more frequently towards the end of the week. Our boys got going on creating the highlight video on my computer, so it limited blogging significantly.
To say that God showed up on our behalf this week. We have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The worship that these students took part in was so deep and beautiful. Many people got a vision of a river flowing across the front of the room and it really felt that way- in fact, Thursday night, during worship, the students spontaneously being to pray for each other. It was awesome. We got the opportunity to pray for healing for the one student that had been on many hearts throughout the week- and we truly feel that God has healed her.
The testimonies that the students shared throughout the last two days has been unbelievable. When we think about the fundraisers, the hours of meetings, the prayer times- we all look back and say that it was TOTALLY worth it. Some of the students have felt a life calling, many have rededicated their lives, and more than a handful got saved for the first time.
But, because our boys worked SO HARD, I have been able to upload the highlight video for you. Sorry that it isn't the best quality video in the world, but it's just because the only way to upload it was to shrink it significantly. Sorry about that.
As you watch this, know that YOU were the feet that got our hands here. There is not a day that goes by that we do not mention our prayer partners at one point or another. So know that you are seriously appreciated.
Awesome, huh? Just WATCH that worship. Good gracious.
Please do not stop praying for us. Honestly, I as the leader feel that this time is as important to the team as the time of camp. Now is when they get to debrief and really listen for what God has for them. And this is when the enemy loves to plant lies and division amongst the team. We are all tired and many are feeling a bit sick.
So please lift our team up. Pray that each member would be encouraged and feel that they played a significant role in the week (because they did!). Pray also that we would all be rested being that we have tomorrow (Saturday) off with zero plans before 6pm. Last year, we felt a big attack after camp- so please continue to keep us in your prayers until we arrive home safely on Wednesday. Pray that we would really ENJOY our time together the next few days.
My plan is over the next few days to get a few "guest bloggers" to give you their take on the week- some different team members to share with you their own personal experience.
We love you and thank God for you daily.
Sincerely,
Annie

What an awesome video! All this week during my morning devotions, it has proven no accident that most of the commentary of the Psalms I've been reading have been accompanied by stories of the great saints that lived before you in Scotland - martyrs of the faith who have sowed the seed of tears for Scotland through persecution that cost them their lives. You are there because of their commitment to the Lord hundreds of years ago - God is truly Lord of that city - that nation. Do not be dismayed at what you see with the physical eye - God is indeed preparing the harvest in Scotland!
We love you all are praying daily for you!
