Praise Report (Marama Night of June 2nd, 2007)

PRAISE REPORT

VISION of the HARVEST - TAHITI
French Polynesia (South Pacific)

Marama Night of June 2nd, 2007

----------------------------------------------------

 

Dear friends and prayer partners,

 

IT WAS A REAL BLESSING TO SEE THE YOUTH HAVE SO MUCH FUN

We know some of you have been waiting for this report. Last Saturday, June 2nd, from 6:00 PM to 10:30 PM (Tahiti time), our 5th Marama Night youth event at McDonald's for the second time, was a real blast. The youth involved had a great time of praise & worship, dances, skits and fun contests.

 

This is how the Lord intervened during that night as you prayed for:

• continued smooth and favorable connections with the managing team in McDonald's (Tahiti)

DEFINITELY, IT WAS APPRECIATED BY THE MCDONALD'S STAFF &

THE CLIENTS WHO FLOODED THE AREA FOR MEALS AND WATCHED THE FUN

• good preparation of the youth groups from different fellowships who performed

EACH GROUP (a total of 4) HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS THEIR SONGS, DANCES, PLAYS &

MUSIC WITH DEDICATION AS UNTO THE LORD

• perfect weather conditions (no rain especially)

IT WAS A GREAT WEATHER!

• no disfunctions and no damage on the equipment we will require (sound system, tent, stage, musical instruments, lights, decorations, etc.)

NO DAMAGE FOR SURE BUT THE SOUND QUALITY NEEDED SOME WORK THIS TIME!

(We reached a few times saturation point with the extent of microphones and instruments involved)

• good impact of radio announcemnts, posters, flyers all over town and beyond

LOOKS LIKE QUITE A FEW PEOPLE SHOWED UP AND THE MARAMA NIGHT ARE GETTING TO BE KNOWN!

• the drawing of a good crowd of youth that night

WE MUST HAVE HAD AT LEAST 250 PEOPLE

(was hard to count with the tremendous number of clients coming in and out as well)

• no discouragement or demonic strategies to hinder the teams in their performances

IT WAS MANIFESTED THROUGH SOME DEGREE OF SPIRITUAL

HEAVINESS & SOME TECHNICAL DISFUNCTIONS

• the abiding touch of the Holy Spirit to anoint the whole event

YES, WE BLESS THE LORD FOR THE OVERALL ENJOYMENT AND FUN THE YOUTH EXPERIENCED

THROUGH THE FUN CHALLENGES OF THAT NIGHT

• sensitivity and boldness in conveying the message according to the heart of God

THE MESSAGE CLEARLY CAME ACROSS THROUGH ONE OF THE PLAYS THAT A YOUTH GROUP

PERFORMED THROUGH SINGING AND DANCING (the theme of loneliness and rejection)

• good testimony of the Christian youth involved in the event

WE ARE VERY AMAZED TO SEE HOW THESE EVENTS HAVE POLARIZED THE HEART OF THE

CHRISTIAN YOUTH INVOLVED AND HAS GIVEN THEM A NEW BOLDNESS TO SHARE CHRIST

• many hearts touched and ready to receive the love of Jesus unto salvation & healing

SOME PEOPLE WERE CLEARLY TOUCHED BUT IT'S HARD AT THIS POINT TO MEASURE THE FULL IMPACT

• an increasing awareness of the presence of God during our Marama Night events

WE HAVE SENSED AN INCREASING AWARENESS OF GOD'S PRESENCE BUT MORE IS YET TO COME

• favor with city officials and also the permit to hold our next Marama Night Mini Concert (on August 4th) at a very public and central location in Papeete

FAVOR HAS BEEN DEFINTELY THERE AND WE ARE TARGETING A VERY CENTRAL LOCATION

OF DOWNTOWN FOR OUR NEXT MARAMA NIGHT MINI CONCERT ON AUGUST 4TH, 2007

 

We will keep you posted on the next event. In the meantime we're getting ready for our long awaited four-week long trip to the USA (from June 16th through July 14th). We will no doubt experience some new adventures and we would appreciate your prayerful support. Stay tuned...

Global Day of Prayer & Marama Night (5th Edition)

PRAYER ALERT & PRAISE REPORT

Global Day of Prayer (May 27, 2007) & Marama Night of June 2nd, 2007

----------------------------------------------------

Dear friends and prayer partners,

THE GLOBAL DAY OF PRAYER IN TAHITI: A NEW DAY FOR OUR NATION
Last Sunday, May 27th, we joined in with the many hundreds of millions of Christians spread out over 220 nations for the Global Day of Prayer of Pentecost Sunday. It was indeed for us in Tahiti the occasion for a great gathering of the saints (between 250 and 300) from at least five different fellowships/churches. Pastor William Tua rented the Sheraton Hotel for the event. I believe the most moving time was the Holy Communion where we did sense a special work of the Holy Spirit breaking our hearts over the many years of divisions and dissentions among Christians that have caused so much grief to God.

Everybody was so excited by the meaningfulness of that day and we believe (along with others) that this Pentecost Sunday has marked the history of our nation for that is the day when a significant portion of the Body of Christ of our nation has agreed to be AS ONE before the Lord. We saw the crumbling of many unworthy walls that have been built over the years in the name of religious pride and selfish ambitions. We are really thankful to God and we feel honored to have been able to be a part of this tremendous gathering and we are praying that other opportunities will be given to worship God together again in the near future.

OUR NEXT MARAMA NIGHT, THIS SATURDAY JUNE 2nd

This coming Saturday, June 2nd, from 6:00 PM to 10:30 PM (Tahiti time), will be hosted our 5th Marama Night youth event at McDonald's in downtown Papeete. It is going to be our second open air public endeavor and we believe it will impact many people's lives. We had actually planned the event somewhere else in Papeete but it didn't work out that way! Thank God, McDonald's was open to host us again.

We'd like to request your prayers (same as last time) on behalf of this forthcoming night especially in these very areas:

• continued smooth and favorable connections with the managing team in McDonald's (Tahiti)
• good preparation of the youth groups from different fellowships who will be performing
• perfect weather conditions (no rain especially)
• no disfunctions and no damage on the equipment we will require (sound system, tent, stage, musical instruments, lights, decorations, etc.)
• good impact of radio announcemnts, posters, flyers all over town and beyond
• the drawing of a good crowd of youth that night
• no discouragement or demonic strategies to hinder the teams in their performances
• the abiding touch of the Holy Spirit to anoint the whole event
• sensitivity and boldness in conveying the message according to the heart of God
• good testimony of the Christian youth involved in the event
• many hearts touched and ready to receive the love of Jesus unto salvation & healing
• an increasing awareness of the presence of God during our Marama Night events
• favor with city officials and also the permit to hold our next Marama Night Mini Concert (on August 4th) at a very public and central location in Papeete

The main sound mixing table we were supposed to acquire a month ago, hasn't made it yet to Tahiti. This piece of sound equipment will indeed be strategic to our Marama Night events. Please pray that we will have it no later than August 2007.

With much love, appreciation & gratitude for your partnership in the Lord's Harvest,
