See lives transformed as God uses you to minister to those who need Jesus, just by painting a child's face, rocking a baby, serving a hot meal, or playing games with children. You will have the opportunity to reach someone only you can reach – to bless someone and in return be blessed. Most important – you will have the opportunity to stand with someone and pray with that one to receive Jesus Christ! And, in the end, you will have made a difference in the life of "one."

WOW JAM Detroit 2011 Update

 

71 incredible people from Water of Life Church in Fontana, CA flew out with us to serve all week. They packed over 1,000 very full bags of groceries and then on the hottest day ever recorded in Detroit history, they passed out thousands of flyers for the WOW JAM.

Friday night, we all gathered to worship and prayed for the WOW JAM.   Although the weather report called for temperatures to hit 100 and severe thunderstorms with showers right during the WOW JAM, we asked God for a little cloud covering and a soft breeze and to hold back the rain. To the left is Pastor Dan Carroll praying in the crowd.

God answered every one of our prayers! Over 4,000 showed up at the WOW JAM and there was a cloud covering the hot sun, a gentle breeze and no rain. Every tent was filled and joy filled the air as hurting people experienced the love of Jesus.

After the gospel was presented, 417 people accepted Jesus. As the entire crowd raised their hands and sang “Amazing Grace”, God filled the sky with dazzling colors. I could hardly contain myself as I raised my hands and thanked my Lord for His faithfulness. No matter how many times in the last 20 years I have experienced this moment, I am always both humbled and full of joy to see people saved and changed forever by the love of Jesus.

Sunday morning Pastor Danny Carroll preached a powerful message of destiny on the 310th anniversary of the City of Detroit. Afterwards, we all went outside for the water baptism where singing and dancing broke out in the most joyous celebration we have ever had at a WOW JAM baptism. 13 more people accepted Jesus, 52 got baptized and 13 babies were dedicated.

God always reminds me that there is still much work to be done. Right after the baptism was over, we were loading up the busses and heard 7 gunshots 1 block away and saw a young man running. Please keep Detroit in prayer and we look forward to hearing from you this month with your financial support as we continue WINNING OUR WORLD!

God Bless you!
