We started the day praying over a shipment of 42,118 lbs of soup mix and rice going to Poland and Ukraine with New Manna Ministries. Then the team from Fired-Up Youth Ministries led worship, it was wonderful have the room resounding with young voices!
Eastern Europe is in the house; youth from Georgia and Bulgaria are here for a day’s volunteer work. We are enjoying the connection with World Link Exchange. And lastly just in case you think these kids work too hard, morning break includes homemade snacks by the pool.

Today we prayed the DTS team out the gates and into the Outreach phase of their school. They will serve in ministries in CA and CO, returning in July. They are such a beautiful team; we are excited to learn where the Lord will take them and how he will grow them.
Summer Staff have arrived and will spend the week in training, prep, and prayer. Peach season is nearly upon us!

We have had some amazing times in our morning chapel services this summer in conference calls directly with partner ministries! Conference calling into foreign countries can present interesting challenges to be sure, but it has been so exciting to connect with our ministry partners. Recently we connected with a ministry in Colombia who is a new partner for Gleanings, but already we see such rich blessing from the Lord through this connection. We bridged in a long time YWAM ministry friend in Colombia to bridge the gap in languages. Steve Bartel translated back and forth to facilitate our conference call. During the call, we were also joined by another ministry team member who was actually distributing food live while we were on the call! We heard from a recipient who along with her husband and child had fled the impoverished nation of Venezuela. We were able to pray a blessing for her, and to encourage her that food from Gleanings would be on it’s way right to her home town of origin in Venezuela as well!

The theme of healing kept coming up last week: healing from sickness, stress, worry, and relationship strain. Be encouraged! You are dearly loved by God. Receive his healing touch, walk in his truth, and ask for help if you need it. We are always encouraged and honored as we pray for the shipments being sent out. Sending the food to partner ministries such as Feed The Children is a tangible sign of God’s love.
“Do not worry about your life … Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? … But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” Matthew 6:25, 27, 33
