Another full month on Miracle Street! Things are going really well and the re-configuring of the work continues at high speed. We are already visiting between 15 and 20 towns and cities throughout 2011 with a sense that many more are to come.
On my recent trip to Madrid with Martin Stringer we met Rosa Barachina who leads the youth movement of the Assemblies of God across Spain. We are going to work together to deliver the annual youth congress in July that will see 1,000 young people gather in the capital. I’ll be speaking and we will work together on a huge open-air event at Puerta Del Sol in the centre of Madrid.
Next week I fly to Berlin to reconnect with three of the key guys we worked with when we took the Mainstage through Germany in 2009. We share many dreams together for the Gospel across Europe. The work they do in Berlin is so similar to the heart and vision of Miracle Street and they are brilliant guys. I think our futures are wrapped up with each other.
On Easter Sunday I’m speaking in Central Hall, Southampton on ‘The Colours of Easter’ it will be a very important event for us as a church and we are hoping to see the place full. The technical guys are getting all the gadgets out to create a colour wash effect in this great building. Come and see us if you are not busy on that morning and you’re close to Southampton.
