Cool Blessing!

This summer has, so far, been pretty hot in Pittsburgh (about 35 degrees C the wamest days). Even though I'm a huge fan of summertime, the beach/pool, sunbathing etc etc I have to admit that going to sleep in that temperature has been a little challenging (our bedroom has evening/afternoon sun). Anyway God know's everything right?! And sometimes He answers our wishes even before they become prayers! This week we were blessed with three brand new window AC's!!! God is so good! (And our bedroom has a temp of about 20 degrees C now!)

The Word

This morning I read the following Psalm:

1 LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary?

Who may live on your holy hill?

2 He whose walk is blameless

and who does what is righteous,

who speaks the truth from his heart

3 and has no slander on his tongue,

who does his neighbor no wrong

and casts no slur on his fellowman,

4 who despises a vile man

but honors those who fear the LORD,

who keeps his oath

even when it hurts,

5 who lends his money without usury

and does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

He who does these things

will never be shaken.

Psalm 15

This Psalm so spoke to my heart this morning! Who is really able to do all this? The answer is no one, but in Jesus and through His blood and work on the cross it IS possible! How we need the grace of God... Thank You Jesus for the cross, the blood and that You cried out; It is finished...

Love You Jesus!

Faith in Jesus and fanatism

This weekend Johannes and I have been in Bechtelsville, PA, about 50 min north of down town Philadelphia. We have been with Pastor Steve and Liz DeFrain @ Morming Star Fellowship. What a great church with such excellence.


We have had 4 services here and it has been a weekend of salvation. So many people, most of them new to the pastors @ Morning Star, received salvation and now they have faith in Jesus. Thank you Jesus for your saving grace.


Then for lunch we were invited to the home of a hunter. You know there are hunters and then there are hunters and then there is Dale. He is a hunter with a passion. We love this kind of fanatism. He built an extension on his house to have space for all his trophies.


What great steaks that we were served. Thank you Dale and Donna. We appreciate your hospitality so much. Thank you again.






Moose, elk and countless deer. He also has mountain lion, bob cats, lynx, goats and bear - black, brown and grisly.

Warrior Graduation ...

This weekend is graduation for the MCM Ministry School and Johannes Amritzer preached about Given from Heaven...


After two powerful services this morning we all gathered for a luncheon. Words of appreciation were given and we honored both students and staff as diplomas were handed out. What a great joy to see how these students have grown in the past nine months. They can shake any place for the Kingdom. They all graduated as warriors. So beautiful.



Thank you Jesus for the privilege to impart into the lives of others. We are raising up a breed of warriors that will be on the frontiers in these end times.



I am so proud of you all! Be strong and bold! Love u all!
