Dear Christian Believers,
Greetings and God bless you in the powerful name of Jesus Christ.

  YES! 2004 Youth Camp, WOW what a truly unbelievable week. Wayne and I knew going into this camp that it had the potential to be a great one, but until it was completed we could have never expected it to be the mountain top experience it turned out to be. The theme for the camp was "The How Of The Nine," and it dealt with the nine manifestations, and most especially the "revelation and impartation or power manifestations. The theme verse was:
I Corinthians 14:12 (Revised Standard Version) "Since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church."

  This was our seventh Youth camp and the youth had been eager to know more and more about the manifestations of holy spirit, how they function, and how to operate them all. We had consistently worked with them on the worship manifestations for the past four - five years and NOW was the time to teach the revelation and power manifestations. I told the youth before we began to teach discerning of spirits, and the power manifestations, to heal the sick and cast out unclean spirits, that we'd love to wait until they were 25- 30 years old, but the devil doesn't wait till your 25-30 years old to go after you. He's always after GOD'S children and HIS youth, thus GOD'S young people need to be taught HOW to see what is going on around them and to be knowledgeable of the devil's snares. The way youth are bombarded by the media today is unbelievable. The music, movies, TV shows, video games, the internet, everything is packaged to appeal to young inquiring minds to tempt or pressure them to get caught in the devil's snares. Families and especially youth need to be taught so they are able to separate truth from error, so they can be victorious in this life. When we look in the Bible we see examples of youth rising up to do the miraculous. David for instance was a teen when he struck down Goliath. Timothy was a youth when he traveled with the apostle Paul as he preached and taught God's Word, and ministered healing and deliverance to people. Daniel and Samuel had to rise while youths. Mary when told by the angel Gabriel that she would be mother of the Messiah, responded with "Be it unto me according to thy Word," and she was but a youth.

  I John 14:12 says; "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." It doesn't say, he that believeth on me when they reach 25 years old, THEN he shall do the works that I do and greater. The age limit is WHEN they believe on him, no matter what the age. Wayne and I along with Tom, Wilfred, Michael, Kevin Guigou, Tonia and Jeff Shroyer are all excited because we've seen the great desire in our youth to learn, more of GOD'S Word, and to learn HOW to walk by the spirit so they can be sharp and minister to others. They want to preach and teach GOD'S Word, they want to heal the sick and cast out unclean spirits and set people free. They look forward to GOD working within them to do signs, miracles, and wonders. They are Bold to Believe and Eager Beavers. They want to Know and Go with GOD. I challenge you parents to help your youth to learn what they need to know, so they can become good ministers Jesus Christ. The POWER OF GOD" teaching series are teaching tools to help you learn and grow in your knowledge and understanding of GOD'S Word as a family. But you must take the responsibility for your own families. Our ministry is to the family and we can help you if you will help yourselves. Let us work together to strengthen GOD'S families, to manifest wholeness, and bring deliverance to others.

Loving ou in Christ,
John
