"Believers who have the gospel keep mumbling it over and over to themselves. Meanwhile, millions who have never heard it once fall into the flames of eternal hell without ever hearing the salvation story." - K.P. Yohannan
Below you will find the most recent updates from our teams in Orlando and around the world. If you would like to join us for such an experience please let us know here.
Michael
and I are so excited about the future that God has planned for YWAM
Orlando on this 198-acre property where this photo was taken. We are
excited to say that over 1/2 of the funds needed for closing have come
in. There is still a need to trust God for $514,969 in order to close
on the property by August 31, so we´ll be hitting the road once again to
tell the story of what God is doing through YWAM Orlando and about the
wonderful opportunity before us.
Thanks so much for your
prayers and encouragement as we walk through this process. Please
continue to pray for health, strength, and protection over us and our
kids during this time.
In
2010 we celebrate YWAM’s jubilee year… 50 years of life-changing
vision, a world-changing movement and international family that holds
God’s eternal flame in our hearts. We celebrate knowing God’s everlasting faithfulness, goodness, power and love. We
celebrate the privilege of making Him known in all nations, all
tongues, all peoples... lighting the torches of the future entrusted to
each of us. In
2010, “the Flame Goes Forward” as YWAM celebrates this milestone and
looks forward to all the things God has for us in the future. 42 events
around the globe are being held in 2010 where our YWAM founders Loren
and Darlene Cunningham are visiting with the YWAM family and speaking
renewed faith and vision into the body of Christ.
Here
at YWAM Orlando, we believe this “jubilee” year will be a time of great
celebration as we take hold of the promises God has for us and walk in faith toward new facilities that will be the staging ground for so many new flames of vision. As
the Israelites celebrated the jubilee when debts are erased and land
changes hands – the timing is significant for YWAM Orlando to step into a
new chapter for the ministry God has called us to. YWAM
Orlando is hosting Loren and Darlene Cunningham as we celebrate YWAM’s
50th anniversary from Nov 10th to 12th at the new YWAM Orlando Campus. We will celebrate God’s faithfulness as we look toward the future and trust the Lord to to take us onward. Please stand with us in prayer as we walk this path of faith together. Every one of us that have been a part of YWAM as staff, students and
prayer/support partners has a part in this historic moment. Let’s
celebrate these past and future victories together! Read more about Flame Goes Forward at www.ywamorlando.com/ywam50

Hello
from Youth With A Mission Orlando! We
are in exciting times as we work toward the August 31st property
closing date. We are so grateful that God has given us opportunity to
extend
our time, much like Joshua in the Old Testament when the sun stood still
so that he had time to win the battle. God has
extended our closing date giving us more time to continue winning our
battle for the release of the funds necessary to purchase the property
($541,941 needed as of 7/19/2010). We see this as God’s provision and are so grateful!
As
we are counting down the final days to closing on August 31st we
want to clearly present an accurate sense of what God
has provided. When you go to our website we now have a thermometer tabulating the progress of our efforts. We will be making daily updates
when we receive new donations and will include previous commitments as
they are fulfilled. In
the past our number reflected both the donations received and the total
of
future commitments, but this lead to a bit of fluctuation. Now the
number
on the thermometer will reflect only
the donations that have been made to date.
The
other exciting thing is that over the last two weeks we have been able
to make minor repairs and clean up on the property. These repairs will
prevent any further damage to the
existing buildings during Florida’s rainy
season.
Due to the extended closing date, Darla and I
will be traveling this
summer to tell the story of what God has been doing and to share the
extraordinary opportunity before us. If you would like to host a meeting
in
your home or church, please let us know as soon as possible before our
schedule
fills up. We would appreciate your continued prayers!
