UPDATE, May 1st

Pastor Wally and Matilda thank everyone from their hearts for all of the prayers. The prayers are heard and are being answered. They are so grateful for every prayer and support they are receiving at this time. Their hearts are leaping for joy at what is happening. Of course, all his notes were lost in the fire with everything else, so he says he is speaking from the heart of God.

Pastor Wally says he is beginning every meeting with these words, "Silver and gold we do not have, but what we have we leave with you ..." and asking people to count their blessings … the blessings of God will overtake them.

Pastor Wally says all of the meetings have been an incredible, awesome time in the Spirit ... they have been honored with the Presence and Power of the Holy Spirit in every meeting. People are saying they've never been in meetings like these, they want more and more. Lives are being changed; signs, wonders, and healings are taking place in every meeting. He is speaking three times a day. He says miracles are taking place in his own body ...God continues to give him strength in body and voice every time he needs to speak!

At present, they are in a city that sits atop a mountain ... he said they're having a mountaintop experience! Many of the places they have been have been on the mountaintops ... and the experiences for the people are the same! This morning, there was an earthquake just before the meeting began. People were so excited because they felt that it was a sign from God that He is moving!

They will have a couple of days to rest, then have some big meetings Saturday-Monday, and again Tuesday and Wednesday.

Pastor Wally asks that we pray for the following:

1. Pray for souls to be saved and lives to be transformed in all meetings.

2. This is election time in the Philippines. All offices, except the president, are up for election. Pastor Wally is being asked to pray for many candidates, but he is telling each one that he will not pray for anyone to win, but only for transformed hearts. Election time can be a dangerous time there. Many killings have already taken place. He asks you pray for the church to raise godly men and women to be voted into office. His last speaking date is May 9th. The election is May 14th. Please pray, also for God's hedge of protection to be around Pastor Wally and Matilda.

3. When they return home, they will need to replace many things. Among them, a new laptop, video and still cameras, which are vital to their ministry. They also had several thousand dollars in cash for this trip. Just with the equipment and the cash that was burned up, they are many, many thousand dollars in the hole, not to mention clothes and the other incidentals.

Pastor Wally's brother and family have found a house to rent and should be moving in today. Praise God! We continue to pray that all, and more, would be restored after their tragic loss of everything in the fire last week.

Please help pray in the funds needed to replace all that was lost in the fire, and to bless them abundantly! And, of course, again, please pray for them to be covered with the Blood of Jesus; a hedge of protection, that no weapon formed against them will prosper; supernatural rest; strength; favor; and peace. They miss their daughter, as she misses her Mom and Dad. Preshus is doing well and when I ask her if she has any prayer requests, she just says, "Protection for my Mom and Dad."
