Hello everyone!
Sorry it’s taken so long to reach you all, I unfortunately don’t have wifi where I’m living at the moment.
So for travel I left Washington last Friday where I proceeded to Boston, and from there I flew nonstop to Dublin, Ireland. When we got to Ireland we then proceeded to take two more busses to where we are currently living. We arrived at our home sometime Saturday night for over a 30 hour travel day, need I explain me exhaustion? (There should be a video coming up after this blog of my current home.)
So that brings us up to date with the physical trials of the world race so far, now to the important things. The Fathers hand is all over our current ministry ,which is the Vineyard Church in Colerain Ireland. I’m not sure what I was expecting on this trip but I assumed it would be more about me pouring into others rather than being flooded with life, I’m not complaining. After I got here I found out there where a group of people from Arizona who left right before we got here, which kind of took me back. I went up to my brother Adam and said something along the lines of, “man I thought we where going to some broken church that needed life, what where people from Arizona doing here?” Adam proceeded to tell me that this specific church we are working with has had countless encounters with the spirit over the past few years and that word was getting out about it and people where literally lining up to get involved. On our first church service we completely ran out of chairs for people, I was beyond thrilled to see what was going on. So the Lord decided to throw me into the middle of it, thanks are in order. While at the service the pastor was talking about how their children where walking around town and praying for healing for strangers and the Spirit was showing up! I’m still getting used to the tangible presence of the Spirit, but I wanted more, and I got it. The pastor asked if anyone needed healing and my heart started pounding, if anyone has been involved with me life over the past year you would know I had back surgery around a year ago and it still hurts and gives me problems every so often. Anyways, I walked down the isle and a little girl named Sarah who looks EXACTLY like the girl from Narnia came up to me and laid a hand on my back and began casting the enemy out of my back in her adorable Irish accent. I mean, if you want a wake up call then I know a perfect place to get one. I’m not sure what it was, maybe a 10 year old girl casting out the enemy with all authority in Heaven over your broken body and having not felt a pinch of pain since, yeah that may have something to do with it. Glory!
Apart from that, race life has been fairly good, I had a stint of homesickness which I know will come and go but prayer over that would be tremendous. I miss all of you and I daydream of the memories we will make one day. Until then I know you all know I’m serving where I’m needed and I will be back before you know it. I love you all so much! Get. In. Touch.
Yours in life,
Tyler.
