Tonight marks the last night of our trip. I have seen God do awesome things on this trip, supernatural healing, His spirit falling on people and they lose of themselves, God touching peoples hearts and them coming to the salvation of Jesus Christ for the first time. I have seen God do amazing things through each and every member of this team.
Tomorrow we leave for the U.S., we are not returning the same as we left. We all have a deeper understanding of who God is, what He has done for all of us, and who we are in His kingdom.
I believe we will all be prepared to walk in what we have learned on this trip. But, we will not only be walking in His ways, but teaching His ways so that others will flow in the Kingdom ways, and in doing so what we have learned will not stagnate, but rather grow deeper and deeper.
I want what was learned by YPI 2010 to affect the world for generations to come, and I want God to continue to increase what He started here in Brazil.
May God pour forth His abundant blessings on each and every one of you.

Hey sorry i"m late on writing this.
Hey this is Lane.
Ok well this has been awesome so far. Right now we are going out to churchs in groups of ten or twelve. Tommy is doing awesome on his teachings he's our preacher right now and he is just awesome. Last night we healed 100 or mabye more people. After I had prayed for a whole bunch of people my translator asked if I would pray for his eyes cause he couldn't see well, he couldn't even read my name tag. So I prayed that his eyes be healed and I asked if he could read my name tag after I was done praying and he could read it perfectly.
Thanks for listening Lane.

We just started going out to some smaller churchs by ourselves, meaning that the main speakers that were here during the first week have gone home and we are still with Mark, operating in smaller groups. It's great! We actually get to go back to the same church we went to this Thursday, today. A little more than a hundred people were healed on Thursday, just in the church that we went to. Can't wait to get back there and continue! Thanks so much to all of those who are praying for our mission trip and God bless you.

Supernatural is the new normal
Okay, so on this trip I have seen God do amazing works. Not only through speakers like Randy Clark, but through the team and their hands, me and my hands. I have seen the supernatural as reality.
There was a woman who had 10 screws and a metal plate in her ankle, she had pain and restricted movment from this. She gets prayed for, the pain is gone and she has full movment restored.She goes to the doctor the next day and has her ankle X rayed. the doctor sees the X rays, goes up to the woman and says "please tell me you had somone remove that". In case you didn't catch that the metal dissapeared from her ankle through prayer.
There was a woman I prayed for, she had problems with her memory, as i prayed she said she could feel her brain being rewired.
There was a man (Julio) that a group of us were praying for, he had an infection in the tear ducts on his right eye, as we prayed for him he said he felt fire in his eye. One of us (Brandon) started calling for more fire. Julio gets slain in the spirit and falls over tears streaming from both eyes.
Now we are not super spiritual, perfect people. We are people who have decided that we want to walk in the power of God. We are no different than you, that means that you can also walk in this power. I challenge you, go forth, pray for people in Jesus name. He will show up, He is not a respecter of persons. If he will move through me he will move through you, even if you don't feel like he should. Just try it out.
I hope, I pray, you get what I am trying to tell you. I thank you for reading,and ask you to go forth and minister the kingdom,in Jesus name. God is with you.

Last night I saw God doing some amazing things. when we go to the churches we have a few people go off to a different area as intercessors during the service and they return when we start going out and praying for the people in the crowd. Well last night i volunteered as an intercessor, and you could feel the power of God in the upper room where we were at. after a while of us praying, a lady who is trained and seasoned in the sport of intercession came and showed us some tricks of the trade. like how to work together, intercession is a team sport. The power of God was already upon us in the room, but we started seeing how to flow together and compliment the revelations each of us were getting for further revelation of God and what he is doing.
I remember some of what God revealed to the group, but I had one thing happen to me that was amazing. We were praying, and I got slain in the spirit, so there I was, laying on my back just feeling the presence of God, and I ask " okay God, you have me here, what do you want to show me?" and I start getting words of knowledge all over the place. God touching me, bottom of the right foot,back of the left knee middle of the back:right side. With that God saying I want to heal this. I had 6 or 7 places, as Randy gave out 3 of the words of knowledge I got, the team gave out another 3. I gave only 1. so God confirmed what he revealed to me. Yeah it was pretty amazing.
I can't wait to see what God is going to do tonight
Thank you for reading and God bless you.

King of Glory and Grace
For the Lord God is a sun and a shield; The Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold, from those who walk uprightly. Oh Lord of hosts, blessed is the man who trusts You!!! Psalms 84:11-12 At times all we can say is what an awesome God we serve. Oh Lord God of hosts, hear my (our) prayer; give ear Oh God of Jacob. Oh God, behold our shield, and look upon the face of Your anointed. Psalms 84:8-9
Our God has done just this,He has given ear, looked upon His anointed, has been our sun and our shield, given us all glory and grace.....Most of all He has withheld no good thing.....He truly is the King of Glory and Grace........AMEN.......This team has been blessed beyond measure, we continue to bless all who are praying into this amazing work of Father God

Just a word
Joel 2:1-11 Blow the trumpet in Zion,And sound an alarm in my holy mountain! let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; For the day of the Lord coming, for it is at hand: A day of darkness and glominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong, the likes of whom has never been; Nor will there be any such after them even for many successive generations.
A fire devours before them, and behind them a flame burns; the land is like the Garden of Eden before them,and behind them a desolate wilderness; surley nothing shall escape them. Their appearence is like the appearence of horses; and like swift steeds, so they run. With a noise like chairiots over the mountains they leap, like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble, like a strong people set in battle array.
Before them the people writhe in pain; All faces are drained of color. They run like mighty men, they climb the wall like men of war; every one marches in formation, they do not break ranks. They do not push one another; every one marches inhis own column. Though they lunge through weapons, they are not cut down. They run to and fro in the city, they run on the wall they climb into houses, they enter at windows like a theif.
The earth quakes before the , the heavens tremble; The sun and moon grow dark, and the stars diminsh their brightness. The Lord gives voice before his army, for His camp is very great; For strong is the one who executes His word. For the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; Who can endure it?

life shown in the heart of winter
I would like to thank all of you who have sown into this trip(prayer or fianancally) and let you know that you have sown into good ground.
Here in Brazil they are in the middle of from what I hear, a harsh winter for the area. The countryside is greener than any place i have ever seen. In seeing this God gave me a word, This team is going to be seen in the spiritual winter (both here and where we return to) and we will be seen bearing fruit in the heart of winter, and those who seeus will glorify God. and as with the rod of Aaron, life brought forth(where it was not before) is His symbol of leadership.
once again, thank you for sowing, you will reap the rewards.
May His peace be with you.

Wednesday
Hey everyone,
Well today is the big day, we officially start our adventure today. :) Brazil, here we come! Get ready for the unquenchable fire of God!!!!!!!!!!
I don't have much to say, but I want to say that we need to make sure our walk with God is good and pure and always for Him. We cant just sometimes follow God, you are either there or not and I know I personally want God to tell me when I get to heaven, "well done my good and faithful servant". I don't want him to say, "I don't even know you." God knows what we do on the computer and what we watch on TV even if our parents don't. God knows everything we do, And He is always there for us. He will NEVER leave you or forsake you even if you don't follow Him, as long as you come back to Him and say," I'm sorry, I was wrong forgive me", He will. Remember, true repentance is walking away from the sin. He wont even remember what all you did in the past. A lot of times we ask God to forget what we have done, but He already forgot when you repented. It is us that needs to let go of our past and move on.

When telling some people about the mission trip I often got a response similar to "Be extra careful while you're there". I've got no problem with being careful but the way it was stated often portrayed some sort of fear, so I thought it would be appropriate to share one of my favorite scriptures in response to that fear. Psalm 27:1-3. The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me to eat up my flesh, my enemies and foes, they stumbled and fell. Though an army may encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, in this I will be confident.
On Wednesday we were forgiving and letting go of things during youth group. One of my friends went through a tough child hood and its still continuing. She was crying and that hurt me so I walked over to her and looked her in the eyes and she started to bawl. I gave her a hug and was about to leave and then the words "I love you" flew out of my mouth. She lunged at me and gave me a hug. And after that she told me "I haven't heard that in so long. Its always "Your such a hassel, Its harder to raise a kid that isn't yours"..... etc. That hurt me so much to see her in pain and to learn that she hasn't heard those words in so long...................... We are all loved, sometimes we just have to step up and take the place of others and let them know God will always love you no matter what.
To Sow a Seed
Hey guys.
At the end of my last baseball game, this 19 year old guy just randomly walks up to me and asks me if he could show me some stuff about pitching. Well i meet up with him sunday afternoon and he shows me some cool pitches and stuff so after we did that I went home and was praying when God told me that this guy picked me for a reason and that this guy had seen something good in me. So now when I remembered that Mark told us to sow a seed I knew I had found somethin so pray that this goes well.
We are almost on are way to Brazil so please pray that we will be cep't safe and that God will use us in ways we never thought possible.
Thanks for listening and God bless.

Golddust and other things
Okay so on Sunday at Kingdom Streams I saw specs of golddust on my palms. That night I asked to see more on me. So the next day Jacob and I were in the car and I glanced at my palms..... THEY WERE COVERED IN GOLDDUST!! So awesome!!!!!!
Then today we went to San Angelo and I reconnected with someone I met at House of Faith camp. Also while we were there we went shopping for some more Brazil stuff and my mom and I prayed that we would find a black skirt....... well I picked out one and went to go show it to my mom and when I got there she was holding the same one! Comfirmation while shopping! What a deal :) haha

Called to Holiness pt 1 Wheat and Tares
I have a principle I would like to put forth that I think anyone that represents Christ should know of. It is that we are called to follow him, we are called to holiness.
Wheat and Tares/ bearing fruit
Matthew 13:24-30 Another parable he put forth to them, saying: The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; but, while the man slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared.so the servants of the owner came and said to him, "sir did you not sow good seed in your field? how then does it have tares?" and he said to them, " an enemy has done this" the servants said to him" Do you want us then to go and gather them up?" but he said " no, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, ' First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barns.' "
Now, we are the Lords field, we have the we have the fruit he has given us to bear for him. The fruit varies from person to person, our ministry, gifts of healing, prophesy, and the like.however we also have tares that come up(things that render our ministry ineffective, or twist our perspective on our spiritual gifts)for example, one year, Randy Clark nearly did not get invited back to Brazil because a team member was seen smoking a cigarette, the Brazilian Christians see smoking and drinking as signs of immaturity as Christians. So something that is worldly, not neccicarly evil,that can render you ineffective as an example of Christ to others is what I am considering tares.
This trip is a time of harvest, we will see fruit and become more aware of the tares in our lives and those around us. Now we are to work as the reapers. when we see things in our or other team members lives that lessen our ministry,we are to take, and bind them to be burned. Then we are to take our fruit to His barns, where He will bless it and make it more abundant, so those who see us would glorify God.
Thank you for reading and God bless you.

"If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you."
-------------------
Okay so last night I was praying that my teeth would be straight since braces cost a lot and my parents aren't in the position to throw around money. Then I prayed that I could see God's face, and that he would tell me if my grandfathers are in heaven. So I will be abiding since I already asked for what I desire the most :)

Hey guys this is Lane.
Sorry I haven't been able to post something on here yet. I just got me a google acount and I had to get someone to send me an invitation to post something on here. So let me get stated. Ok so I was gonna share some stuff about what I've been experenceing in the last couple weeks. This sunday I was soaking and talking to Holy Spirit and asking Him if He could open my eyes and let me see into the spiritual realm for a minute and see an Angel. So I opened my eyes for a quick seconed and right as I opened my eyes I looked out the window and a white dove flies by. That was an awesome experience for me.
I've had this verse on my heart for a while. I think someone has already posted this verse but its Mark 16: 15-18. I've been having dreams about stuff that prepares me for what I'm gonna do down there in Brazil and I've been working on getting in a better relationship with Him. I've just had a great time lately just talking to Him and hearing stuff like I never have in my life.
Thanks for listening,
Lane

I was searching for a verse when this one caught my eye :)
Luke 4:18 ~
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the
brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are
opressed;
To proclaim the acceptable year
of the Lord."

If you read the scriptures Hannah has been getting, it is a commissioning from the Lord...First the former things have passed away,( you are all stepping into a new season and time) next is the Kingdom Mandate..."Go"( this is what this trip is all about going as in Mark 16:15-18) , then is how "we walk by faith"( this trip from start to finish is now and will continue to be about "Faith" For it is impossible to please the Father without "Faith" ), and finally directions in how to over come..."Resist the devil and he will flee"
Revelation 21:4
4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Mark 16:15-18 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 theya]">[a] will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
2 Corinthians 5:7
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
Awesome Hannah....I praise the Lord for you and you Hearing His voice so clearly!!!!! AMEN

Hey guys this is Patty,
I have been praying and asking the Lord to show me what He has in store for this trip and to open my eyes, ears, and heart to receive what he has for me on this trip. One night as I was praying and asking God to show me a little about the trip he gave me a vision of something like a bubble with all of the team in it and I saw the devil trying to shoot firey arrows at us, they would just bounce off the bubble, so I believe that God has us protected on every side so that we can minister freely for Him on this trip.
1 Timothy 4:12
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.

“Abba, Father!”
Abba, Father
Today is a day to Honor our Father in Heaven along with our earthly fathers.....Just as each of us have a earthly father that meets our needs we have one, a father above ALL that is our "All in All"
James 1:16-18
You are the potter and we are the clay....Father let this work that is in your hands be a creation of your choosing and Father may you sing over your work as before.......
Zephaniah 3:17 17 The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.” Rejoice over us Father, quiet each on this team with your Love, and Abba Father may we hear your voice "Singing in and to our Hearts"

James 1:16-18
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. 18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of His creatures.
Romans 8:15
15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.”
Galatians 4:6
6 And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!”
We are a "First Fruit" of His....Placed into His family by the "Spirit of adoption" because He has placed the Spirit of His Son into our hearts...So let us all cry out today "Abba, Father" and let us worship Him for not only for what and where we are but for "Who we are" sons of the King. We serve an awesome God!!! Let us ALL spend some time in thanking Him for who we are through adoption but also to realize just who He is and realize that the one who spoke this universe into being wants each of us to call out......“Abba, Father!” We bless you “Abba, Father”You are the potter and we are the clay....Father let this work that is in your hands be a creation of your choosing and Father may you sing over your work as before.......

34 Then, looking up to heaven, He sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha,” that is, “Be opened.”
Look at these words that Jesus spoke "Be opened" Lord we ask for the same open heaven over this team and this trip....Lord that you would not only open the heavens but that you would show us the "Gate of Heaven" just as you did for Jacob....Genesis 28:17
17 And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven!”
Genesis 28:12
12 Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Oh heavenly Father as it was then we ask that it will be again over this team..(even greater)..In the name above all ...Jesus...Amen

Already recieved
Hey Everyone This is Tommy.
At our first group meeting Mark asked each team member what each of wanted to receive from this trip ( sort of why each of us have come) well for about 8 months prior to this meeting I had been seeking to enter the missions field to get a feel of the dynamics of spreading the gospel to the nations. So I said I need to overcome my fear and shyness, so that I can spread the gospel, because in the future I plan on going to Iran for the kingdoms cause.
Well I have received what I sought in this trip and more, and we leave for Brazil in 12 days, God has really been working in my life over the past month. While before, I was "not the type" who was able to talk about God in public (or even many personal conversations), it seems now any time I am talking to someone, the conversation seems to turn to what God is doing in this world by the power of his son Jesus.
I received the measure of boldness I wanted and much more. I am observing things of the spirit, such as spiritual gifts,and their nature. I am also able to see how God has been moving in my life, things that have developed over years that I am now how it all fits neatly together in His plans.
God is building His army, this team is a part. He is moving in this world, and it is powerful.
Grace be with you,
Tommy

10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, “Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!” So God granted him what he requested.
Father we ask this over this team and that we would be righteous by the blood of your Son, Jesus.....Psalm 5:12 (New King James Version)
12 For You, O LORD, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.

Blog
Hey everyone,
We (the Brazil Team) have decided to make a blog so that everyone who is supporting us prayerfully and financially can see what we are doing while we are in Brazil.
We leave for Brazil June 30th and get back July 14th.
We would love to have your support in prayer for this trip.
Here is just a little info about the trip.
After flying to Curitiba, Brazil, the US youth will join the Brazilian
youth (ages 13-29) and will be trained by Randy Clark, Tom Jones, Jamie
Galloway and Will Hart for 5 days focused on healing, deliverance,
intercession, impartation and spiritual growth in the realm of the
Spirit. During the evenings we will travel to Power Evangelism services
at different locations around the city, where the US and Brazilian youth
will become the ministry team.
The U.S. and Brazilian youth will be divided into “Attack Forces”
which will travel to churches to fan the flames. THE PREACHING AND
TEACHING WILL NOW BE DONE BY THE YOUTH WHO HAVE COMPLETED THE TRAINING
AND BEEN ASKED TO BE PREACHERS AND TEACHERS IN THE SERVICES!
Please keep us in your prayers, because supernatural things (salvation,
healing, deliverance, etc.) happen on His trips.
